The company was established in accordance with a June 1984 cabinet resolution during the Prem Tinsulanonda-led government, to operate the ailing state-owned Bangchak Refinery, as part of a restructuring project with assistance from the World Bank. Initially a state enterprise, the company ran its operations under the supervision of the finance minister. Its main missions were to refine oil and produce petrol products for Thailand's domestic consumption.

In April 1993, the company was listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) under the name of The Bangchak Petroleum Public Company Limited. The company suffered heavily from the 1997 Asian financial crisis, and in 2001, the Finance Ministry reduced its shareholding percentage in the company. On 1 October 2001, the company ceased to be a state enterprise.
The company now does business in oil refining and retail, as well as sustainable energy through various subsidiaries.
