In October 2006, Harvest Energy Trust purchased North Atlantic Refining for $1.6 billion, and in October 2009, the company was purchased by Korea National Oil Corporation.[1] In 2014, it was acquired by SilverRange Capital Partners, a New York-based alternative asset manager.[2] On May 28, 2020, Irving Oil announced that it was in negotiations to purchase the refinery.[3] On October 5, 2020, the sale to Irving Oil collapsed and it was announced that the Come By Chance refinery would close permanently.[4]
