 Our tremendous growth over the
past decade also brought certain challenges, as many
of the reneries we acquired had experienced years of
underinvestment and reliability issues. We have a tremendous
opportunity to improve our operating reliability as we address
these issues for the long term. We are aggressively investing in
high-return capital projects at our most competitive reneries,
restructuring business units to take advantage of efciencies,
and optimizing our asset base to capitalize on the strengths of
our logistically advantaged and complex reneries. Through all
of our initiatives, we remain focused on safety and reliability.
