Caltex Australia Ltd. (CTX.AU) has written down the value of its two refineries by A$1.5 billion as it struggles to compete with larger facilities in Asia.

Australia's biggest refiner, half-owned by Chevron Corp. (CVX), said Thursday it expects to release the results of a review into its refineries in Sydney and Brisbane in about six months.

The review is considering options including investment in the facilities, or closures, Caltex said in a statement.
