About 180 jobs are at risk after energy giant Shell announced the closure of two fire-damaged chemical units within an oil refinery in Cheshire.
The positions at Stanlow in Ellesmere Port are in question following a blaze at the site in August, which damaged the units.
Shell said the cost of fixing the damage was “not economically viable”,
The two chemical plants at the site are owed by Shell but are run under a management agreement by Essar Oil UK.
Essar Oil UK employs over 900 staff, and a further 500 contractors also operate at the refinery.
The adjacent oil refinery at Stanlow is owned by Essar and is not affected.
A Shell spokeswoman said it was “unfortunate” that it did not make economic sense to continue.
Cheshire West and Chester Council said it was “saddened and disappointed by the news” and would do everything it could to help anyone who may need to look for new employment.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
