LIMA — Lima’s refinery continues to make a positive impact on the community, its local leader told the Lima Rotary Club on Monday.
Claudio Ingaramo, the vice president for U.S. refining for Cenovus Energy, is from Argentina and has been with the Lima refinery since 2013. He was appointed manager in 2018.
At the beginning of the year, Cenovus Energy purchased the Lima refinery from Husky Energy. The refinery sits on 450 acres of property in Shawnee Township, just south of the Lima city limits. The facility processes 175,000 barrels of oil per day into gasoline, jet fuel and diesel fuel. The refinery employs 450 workers and another 400 contractors.
