Independent refiners and marketers Ultramar Corp. (Greenwich, CT) and Diamond Shamrock (San Antonio, TX) plan to merge to form Ultramar Diamond Shamrock (UDS; San Antonio). Each Diamond Shamrock share will be converted into 1.02 shares of Ultramar common stock. The company will have revenues of more than $8 billion and a market capitalization of $2.3 billion. Ultramar has no petrochemical presence, but the new company will continue Diamond Shamrock`s expansion plans in aromatics and propylene and will explore further development, says chairman Roger Hemminghaus.
