About us

Martinez Refining Company (MRC) manufactures the cleanest motor fuels in the world, providing an affordable and reliable supply of gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel to the Bay Area.

Our refinery is located on 860 acres and contains 35 process units, each of which plays an important role in how we turn crude oil into fuels that help provide the highest standards of mobility in history.

Our daily workforce consists of 585 full-time employees and 300 embedded contractors. Additionally, 1,000+ Building Trades craftworkers are added during the refinery’s major maintenance activities, which we call “turnarounds.”

In 2024, MRC provided (approximately):

  • 25% of the Bay Area’s gasoline supply
  • 55% of Oakland and Sacramento Airports’ jet fuel supply
  • 40% of San Jose and San Francisco Airports’ jet fuel supply

Martinez Refinery was built in 1915 with significant expansions made in the 1960s, 1980s, and 1990s. Today, it is a modern refinery with advanced automation, controls, and technology. MRC purchased the refinery from Shell in 2020 for $1 Billion and continues to make annual reinvestments in the site between $100 to $300 Million.

Our MRC School Supply Drive for Las Juntas Elementary was a success! Thanks to individual donations from employees, contract partners, and refinery alumni, when school starts this week, students at Las Juntas Elementary will have the school supplies they need.

Principal Patty Crespo said, "This is life-changing for us. We unfortunately don't have a lot of resources, but this means every student will have crayons, Post-it Notes, highlighters, pens, and every desk will be filled with the supplies they need for a strong academic year."

Last year, the Bullpups raised their math, English, and science test scores, and we're cheering them on for another successful year.
