I know Calor buys a percentage of propane direct from the refinery, though most gas comes from the Canvey Island storage terminal. Butane is shipped in from Immingham so may not affect Calor too much

Has a big impact for me. Not quite job threatening, but big loss of business to the company I work for!
It will be bought out sooner rather than later though, it is one of just a few profitable refineries in Europe! Hopefully!

(Petro-China is the rumour, although I see BP buying it back for a £1. Not bad business after selling for £700m a few years back!)
