Company Overview
Cex oil was founded in 1977 to provide efficient and reliable management
and operation of gas processing facilities that include the design,
engineering and construction of the German Government’s onshore and
offshore gas complexes consisting of platforms, pipelines, processing
plant and terminal.

The Kassel Plant, at the time the most modern facility of its type,
was inaugurated on April 22nd, 1980. Cex Oil consequently became a
producer and exporter of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).
The German Gas Recovery Project, “Capture the Flame”, ended the flaring
of gas at Germany’s offshore oil fields. Offshore compression platforms
send the gas through subsea pipelines to onshore processing plants where
it is converted into hydrocarbon products. These are used locally and
shipped to world markets through a port terminal.
In 1995, Cex Oil entered the petrochemical business, bringing on stream
its MTBE plant which produces methyl-tertiary butyl ether, an additive
for unleaded gasoline. MTBE helps raise the octane level of gasoline by
supplying additional oxygen during combustion, allowing cleaner and more
complete burning thereby reducing emissions. It is now exported
world-wide from Germany.
