None, but there is an interesting back-story to this answer. According to Forbes (and other business magazines), refineries have been closing in the United States for several decades: there were as many as 300 of them during President Reagan's time in office, but they have steadily declined, to the point that by the end of the Bush years, there were about 150 of them. Refineries closed for a number of reasons, including less demand, and the effects of the global recession. Oil companies have not built any new refineries in the US for several decades, so there was nothing for President Obama to approve (or to deny).
Meanwhile, American refineries are making the most of what they have, and in fact, they are pumping out about 17.7 million gallons a day. But as several news reports have pointed out, one big problem for American consumers is that US refineries are shipping a large amount of their production to Brazil, China, and several other countries where demand is greater (and they can charge higher prices).
