Petroplus Holdings AG’s Petit-Couronne refinery in Normandy will shut for good after a court rejected all offers for the crude-processing plant.

The court in Rouen ruled that bids from Murzuk Oil and Netoil Inc. failed to contain financial and technical means to “ensure a lasting takeover,” according to a statement from Petroplus.
