MOSCOW (MRC) -- Motiva Enterprises
returned two crude distillation units (CDUs) back to normal operations at its
607,000 barrel per day (bpd) Port Arthur, Texas, refinery, the nation’s largest,
said Hydrocarbonprocessing.
Motiva
restarted the 80,000 bpd VPS-2 CDU on Sunday and restored production to full on
the 195,000 bpd VPS-4 CDU on Saturday after clearing water from the fuel gas
lines supplying the units, the sources said.
In an unsigned statement,
Motiva declined comment.
As MRC informed earlier,
Motiva Enterprises plans to shut the big crude distillation unit (CDU) at its
607,000 barrel-per-day (bpd) Port Arthur, Texas, refinery, the nation’s largest,
by Sept. 5 for a 60-day overhaul. |
