The oil refinery and petrochemicals facility at Grangemouth is home to Scotland's only crude oil refinery and produces the bulk of Scotland's fuels. Current owner Ineos has announced £1bn worth of investment, with £850m being spent in Scotland. The 1,700-acre site supplies 70% of the fuel to Scotland's filling stations as well Northern Ireland and the north of England. [Railscot note: included as a good short history of Grangemouth.]
