Notes

TotalEnergies followed Shell in exiting Société Ivoirienne de Raffinage (SIR Abidjan) in August 2024. Major shareholder exits indicate the refinery is no longer operational. Recent news discusses Ivory Coast's future refining ambitions with a new 170,000 b/d plant, implying the existing facility is not currently functioning.
