Delek said Wednesday its 74,000 b/d Big Spring refinery has completed a turnaround during the first quarter of 2026 and the U.S. refinery operator expects its West Texas facility to improve margins by increasing higher-octane fuel production and blending flexibility among other upgrades.

In a call to discuss Q1 results with analysts, Chief Executive Avigal Soreq said the turnaround would also boost overall product yields at the Big Spring refinery and allow the plant to have greater crude slate optimization.

Soreq said there are no other turnarounds scheduled for its four U.S. refineries for the rest of 2026.

In addition to its oil refineries in Texas and Mid Continent region, Tennessee-based Delek also operates pipelines, storage and renewable fuel businesses.
