The Sarlux refinery
ABOUT US
Sarlux, a Saras Group company, owns the refining and petrochemical plants and the Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) power plant and operates one of the main oil refineries in Europe.
The Sarroch refinery is the main industrial player in Sardinia, in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea, strategically located for trade between Europe, Africa and the Middle East. All our actions are guided by the commitment to a sustainable development model, which respects environmental rules and people, through open dialogue and constant interaction with the community.
The Sarlux refinery, located in the industrial site of Sarroch, on the south coast of Sardinia, west of Cagliari, is one of the largest in the Mediterranean in terms of production capacity and structural complexity.
With a processing capacity of over 15 million tonnes per year – 300,000 barrels per day – the refinery contributes about 20% of Italy’s refining capacity.
The IGCC combined cycle power plant is perfectly integrated with the refining plants and has an installed capacity of 575 MW. In 2023 it produced over 3,5 billion kWh of electricity and contributed approximately 42 percent of the island’s energy needs.
