From a 100-Year Legacy to a Modern Regional Fuel Network
For more than a century, the El Dorado refinery has been part of the heartbeat of Southern Arkansas. It began in the 1920s as Lion Oil—a homegrown operation built during the South Arkansas oil boom—and quickly became a source of pride for the region. Generations of families have worked there, watched it grow, and seen it evolve into the modern Delek refinery it is today. Through every transition, one thing has stayed the same: its commitment to the people and communities that surround it.
That kind of history is more than a story. For today’s fuel distributors and independent retailers, a refinery with deep local roots means more dependable supply, quicker access to product, and a partner that understands what it means to serve a community. As one of the region’s largest employers, Delek continues to invest in South Arkansas, support local families, and strengthen the economy that station owners depend on.
Partnering with DK Fuel connects retailers to a supplier anchored in the community, committed to growth, and focused on helping local businesses thrive.

FAQ’s About DK Fuel Branded Wholesale
Delek’s El Dorado Refinery—formerly known as Lion Oil—has been a cornerstone of Southern Arkansas energy production since 1922. Acquired by Delek in 2011, the refinery processes roughly 100,000 barrels of crude oil per day, much of it sourced from nearby regions. As one of the area’s largest employers with more than 500 team members, the refinery supplies gasoline, diesel and other oil-based products across Arkansas, Tennessee, Missouri, Mississippi, and Northern Louisiana while prioritizing environmental stewardship, including advanced water-reuse initiatives.
Delek US Holdings, Inc. acquired the El Dorado Refinery from Lion Oil Company in 2011, making it a key part of Delek’s refining operations across the southern United States. Originally built in 1922, the facility contributes to Delek’s system-wide capacity of more than 300,000 barrels per day.
Refining in El Dorado dates back to 1922, when a small local refinery was transformed into the Lion Oil Company amid Southern Arkansas’s oil boom. Colonel Thomas H. Barton, an early oil pioneer in the region, helped grow Lion Oil, expanding its production and market reach throughout the South and Midwest.
Over the decades Lion Oil became an important regional energy employer and enterprise. In the mid-1980s, local investors acquired and revitalized the struggling refinery, restoring the Lion Oil name.
In 2011, Delek US Holdings, Inc. acquired full ownership of Lion Oil and its El Dorado Refinery, integrating it into Delek’s southern U.S. refining network and continuing its long history of fuel supply in the region.
Branded fuel meets regulatory standards and follows additional brand-level quality and additive guidelines, backed by marketing, consumer recognition, and loyalty programs that help attract and retain customers. Unbranded fuel meets regulatory requirements but lacks brand marketing and consumer engagement tools, which can limit long-term growth opportunities.
Pricing reflects added value: reliable supply, marketing programs, cleaner additive packages, and brand promotions that drive traffic. Most retailers find these advantages outweigh the small per-gallon cost difference.
Regular, mid-grade, and premium gasoline, plus ultra-low sulfur diesel designed for Southern and Mid-South performance. (For East Texas-specific products, visit the East Texas page here.)
