Exxon Mobil Corp. on Tuesday reported a compressor problem and
excessive emissions at a gasoline-making fluid catalytic cracking
unit of its Beaumont, Texas, oil refinery.
"A process compressor tripped offline," it said in a statement
to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. "Process streams
were routed to the flare to minimize emissions, and the event has
ended. The refinery has returned to normal operations and all
contractual commitments are anticipated to be met."
It said the emissions of sulfur dioxide and other gases happened
Monday afternoon.
The 366,000 barrel-a-day Beaumont refinery produces about 2.8
billion gallons of gasoline a year, and is located 90 miles east of
Houston.
