26 MANAGEMENT TEAM
BILL GREEHEY,
Chairman of the Board and CEO, led
Valero’s successful acquisition of
UDS, which more than doubled the
size of the company and turned it into
the third largest U.S. refiner. Valero
now has the most geographically
diversified refining system in the
country and it has operations in
Canada, including the Jean Gaulin
refinery in Quebec, which is serviced
by a unique “pipeline on wheels”
called the Ultratrain.
Under the leadership of President
GREG KING, Valero challenged
all of its refineries to earn Star Site
status in OSHA’s Voluntary Protection
Program (VPP)—something no other
refiner has committed to do. The
Texas City refinery is one of three
Valero plants that has already earned
this important safety designation.
MARY ROSE BROWN, Senior
Vice President of Corporate Communications,
and KEITH BOOKE, Executive Vice
President and Chief Administrative Officer, led
the employee relations and communications
during the UDS acquisition. The
employees’ high morale following the
acquisition helped Valero capture its highest
ranking on Fortune Magazine’s list of the
“100 Best Companies to Work for in America.”
OUR SENIOR
MANAGEMENT TEAM
Valero’s management and employees have worked together to grow the
company from 170,000 BPD of refining capacity to its current 2 million
BPD, making Valero a bigger, better company in just six years.
