April 22 (Reuters) - Australia's Ampol ALD.AX said on Wednesday it has more than quadrupled its first-quarter margins from its Lytton refinery in Queensland, as the Middle East conflict drove up global refiner margins in March.
The country's top fuel retailer said its refining margins improved to $25.45 per barrel in the quarter, from $6.07 per barrel in the previous year.
