Online Marketplace AllSurplus Partners with Aaron Industrial Solutions to Sell Portuguese Oil Refinery
Refinery Equipment Will Help Fill Gap Created by New Demand
BETHESDA, Md., Jan. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Liquidity Services (NASDAQ:LQDT), a leading global commerce company powering the circular economy, has partnered with Aaron Industrial Solutions (AIS), a global equipment auction, liquidation, and asset management company, to sell a closed, 110,000-barrel-per-day, 290-hectare (~716-acre) oil refinery in Portugal on AllSurplus.com, the world's leading online marketplace for business surplus assets.
"We are proud to have earned the trust of the refinery owners and to have been appointed to dispose of these surplus assets," said AIS Managing Director Peder Grimstrup. "We have a responsibility towards society and the environment, and the closure of this refinery will be carried out under the premise of sustainability."
Many refineries have closed in recent years, as the world transitions to more sustainable energy options. However, demand for oil and gas has surged most recently due to shortages created by the war in Ukraine and the closure of many refineries. Refiners worldwide are struggling to fill production gaps and need equipment that today's disrupted supply chain cannot meet.
"Keeping assets like these in circulation and extending their life is a win for our client, refiners, and the environment," said Liquidity Services' Vice President, Business Development Trey Valentino. "By removing the need to strip parts for scrap metal or extract raw materials to manufacture new equipment, we're able to help offset carbon emissions and environmental degradation."
