Hunt Refining Products

Hunt Refining Company has been a dependable, quality supplier of transportation fuels and other petroleum products for over sixty-five years.

We are a key supplier of quality gasoline and distillate fuels in the West Alabama and East Mississippi markets and to major industrial consumers throughout the Southeastern United States. We market light oil products from our Tuscaloosa refinery via truck, rail, barge and pipeline. Regular gasoline and diesel fuel (Grade 61) are marketed to the northeastern United States via the Colonial Pipeline using our connection at Moundville, Alabama.

Asphalt is sold via truck, rail and barge at the two refineries as well as from various terminals. We continue to expand our markets with our newest terminal location in Atlanta, Georgia.

Fuels
Gasoline
    • We continue to invest in technologies that allow us to produce both Regular and Premium grades of conventional gasoline that meet or exceed vehicle emission standards. Gasoline marketed over the Tuscaloosa refinery truck rack is blended with 10% ethanol while gasoline marketed into Colonial Pipeline is a fungible M-Grade, conventional 87 octane product.
Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel Fuel (ULSD)
    • All diesel refined and marketed by Hunt Refining Company in the Southeast region meets Colonial ULSD specifications. From our refinery, truck and rail rack, we market both clear (on-road) and dyed (off-road) ULSD. Clear (on-road) ULSD is also marketed from our Mobile, AL terminal facility. The Company also sells ULSD into the Colonial Pipeline.
Commercial Jet Fuel
    • We produce Jet-A fuel which is marketed to Fixed-Base Operators (FBOs) in the region. We supply jet fuel with and without anti-ice additive.
Military Jet Fuel
    • We are a significant supplier of jet fuel (JP-8) to the U.S. Department of Defense in our region. This long-term supply relationship is recognition of the value Hunt Refining Company places on meeting the highest quality standards in the marketplace.
Kerosene
    • We produce clear and dyed kerosene which are used as fuel in heaters and in solvent applications.

Specialty
Asphalt
    • We are a large, regional supplier of both paving and industrial grade asphalt. Hunt Refining Company produces and markets Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) graded asphalt binders as well as viscosity graded asphalt binders for paving applications. The SHRP graded binders include both conventional PG grades as well as polymer modified grades.
    • SHRP Performance Graded Asphalt Binders (PG)
      • Conventional PG Asphalt Binders.  Available grades include PG 70-22, PG 67-22, PG 64-22 and PG 58-28.
      • Polymer Modified Asphalt.  Available grades include PG 82-22, PG 76-22, PG 76-22M, PAC-40 and PAC-30.
    • Viscosity Graded Asphalt Binders.  Available grades include AC-2.5, AC-5, AC-10, AC-20 and AC-30.
Asphalt Emulsions

    • Asphalt emulsions are classified according to the electric charge that surrounds the asphalt particles (i.e. cationic, anionic emulsions) and how quickly the suspended asphalt particles break. When emulsions contact the aggregates in the mixer, or are sprayed on the road, they will break (i.e. water will evaporate, leaving the asphalt cement). The terms RS (Rapid Setting), MS (Medium Setting) and SS (Slow Setting) are used to designate how quickly the emulsion breaks. These are relative since the speed at which an emulsion breaks is affected by the type and concentration of emulsifier and atmospheric conditions.

      • Rapid Setting Emulsions - Application: Surface Treatments
        Rapid setting emulsions react quickly with aggregate and revert from an emulsion to asphalt. These types of emulsions produce heavy films and some grades (RS-2 and CRS-2) have a high viscosity that prevents runoff. These properties make them ideal for spray applications such as chip seals, sand seals and surface treatments.
      • Polymer Modified Grades - Application: Surface Treatments
        These emulsions provide improved performance over conventional grades due to the addition of polymer in the emulsification process. This results in surface treatments with less aggregate loss and improves high and low temperature properties. Emulsions produced are: RS-1, RS-2, CRS-1, CRS-2.
      • Medium Setting Emulsions - Application: Mixing with Aggregate, Surface Treatments
        Medium setting emulsions are designed to be mixed with aggregates, either cold or warm. These emulsions do not break immediately upon contact with aggregate and the aggregate emulsion mix remains workable for a few minutes. Medium setting emulsions have been used successfully in open graded emulsion mixes, cold in place recycling, base stabilization and cold-mix production at a central plant. Emulsions manufactured: MS-2; CMS-2 .
      • Slow Setting Emulsions - Application: Various Paving & Industrial Uses
        Slow setting emulsions are designed for maximum mixing time with aggregates. Their long workability times ensure good coating with dense graded, high fines content aggregates. Slow setting emulsions have been used successfully for tack coats, fog seals, and as dust suppressants. Other applications of slow setting emulsions include dense graded emulsion bases and base stabilization. Slow Setting Emulsions manufactured: SS-1; SS-1H; CSS-1; CSS-1H.
Industrial Asphalts
    • Hunt Refining Company produces and markets industrial asphalts that are used in a variety of roofing applications. Most of our industrial asphalt products are tailored specifically to our customers' needs.
Mineral Spirits
    • We are the largest producer of regular mineral spirits in the Southeast region. Mineral spirits is a solvent used in asphalt cutback applications, paint thinners cleaning agents and in wood treatment applications.
Sulfur
    • Molten sulfur is produced during the hydro-desulfurization process which reduces contaminants and sulfur from gasoline fuel. We make sulfur that is used to produce sodium bisulfate for pulp de-chlorination and is a primary component in the production of sulfuric acid – an intermediate product in the manufacture of fertilizer.
Petroleum Coke
    • Coking asphalt results in production of fuels and solid coke. We market green and pulverized petroleum coke. Green petroleum coke is used by lime and cement manufacturers as an energy source alternative to coal. Pulverized coke is used in industrial boiler applications in lieu of natural gas.
