Ellesmere Port, UK, 17th June 2021. Picture shows a view towards the Stanlow Refinery in Cheshire which is reported to be on brink of collapse as it struggles to pay a tax bill. The refinery is situated on the south bank of the Manchester Ship Canal and is used to transport seaborne oil for refining and chemicals for Essar and Shell. Stanlow has a refining capacity of 12 million tonnes per year with a barrel per day capacity of 296,000. Consequently, it is the second largest in the United Kingdom and produces a sixth of the UK's petrol needs. Credit: Jon Super/Alamy.
