We are one of the world’s leading marketers of crude oil and oil products, supplying millions of barrels of oil every day to customers around the world

We source crude oil and oil products from a range of suppliers – through our marketing offices in London, New York and Singapore.

To support our business, we have a substantial shipping portfolio and access to a range of logistics, storage and investment capabilities.

We also market natural gas, mostly in Europe.

Through Astron Energy, we are a leading supplier of petroleum products in South Africa, with a vast network of Caltex-branded service stations that make us one of the country’s top two petroleum brands.
