I need to fund a new refinery, but I can't seem to find an acceptable site for it. Anyone got any tips?

My default, the oil refinery must be within 16 tiles of the edge of the world.

just try again at the nearest postion to the edge of the map. there must be also some flat land!

Don't know what the initial cause was, but when I went back and tried again, I was able to place a refinery where I'd been unable to before.

Maybe refinery placement is a bit flaky.

Thanks to everyone for the advice.

Think you can edit this value as well in the 'configure patches' options.

Yes, you can. That's partly why I said "My default." The other part was a typo - it was meant to be "By default."
