The Altona Refinery is an oil refinery in Altona North, Victoria, Australia, operated by ExxonMobil.[1][2] The refinery is located next to Kororoit Creek which is not navigable. Ships unload at a pier on Point Gellibrand in nearby Williamstown.

Its output was 14.5 million litres of refined oil products each day. Employing 350 staff (in 2019), it was the smallest refinery in Australia, but also one of the oldest.[3] The facility stopped refining fuel in 2020, and switched to a fuel importing and distribution network.
