Tesoro Hawaii Refinery

Tesoro Hawaii printable fact sheet

As the leading supplier of transportation fuels in Hawaii, Tesoro plays a key role in meeting the state’s demand for jet and marine fuels, which are critical to the local economy. Our refinery can process up to 94,000 barrels per day of crude oil to make gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, ship fuel, asphalt and fuel oil for electrical generation.

Tesoro Hawaii distributes refined products statewide. On Oahu, pipelines from the Kapolei refinery feed terminals at Honolulu International Airport, Honolulu Harbor and military installations. Pipelines also deliver products to Kalaeloa Barbers Point Harbor, where they are transferred to ships and barges that supply the Neighbor Islands. Gasoline and diesel are sold through a network of Tesoro-branded retail stations on Oahu, Maui and the Big Island, and through distributors.
