HELLENiQ ENERGY (ELPE) operates three refineries in Greece with a total capacity of 344kbod. It has sizeable marketing (domestic and international) and petrochemicals divisions.
The current driver of earnings is refining margins, which will normalise after the exceptional performance over the last two years, caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. May’s refining margins were below the year-to-date average for 2024. Growth in the renewables business will be the main focus for the market as the HELLENiQ looks to rapidly expand into this area.
