Murco Petroleum

Murco is a well-established petroleum brand in the United Kingdom, primarily known for its network of independently owned forecourts. Historically, the brand was a significant player in the UK's downstream oil sector, operating refineries and a vast distribution network. In recent years, the brand's business model has shifted away from direct refining towards fuel supply and dealership branding.

The brand is currently owned by Motor Fuel Group (MFG), which acquired Murco's retail assets and brand rights from Murphy Oil Corporation's UK subsidiary. Under MFG's ownership, Murco operates as a key brand for independent dealers who receive supply and branding support from one of the UK's largest independent forecourt operators. This allows the Murco name to maintain a strong presence on British roads, particularly in rural and community-focused locations where reliable fuel supply is essential.
