Aug 21 (Reuters) - Australia's Ampol Ltd (ALD) on Monday posted an about 26% drop in its half-year profit, hurt by weak refining margins at its Lytton refinery in Brisbane and weaker pricing of its products, partly offset by higher sales volumes and contribution from Z Energy.
The country's biggest fuel supplier said net profit after tax from continuing operations came in at A$329.6 million ($210.88 million) on a replacement-cost basis for the six months ended June 30, compared with A$444.7 million a year earlier.
