Exxon Mobil reported an operational snag and gas flaring at a
gasoline-making unit of its oil refinery in Beaumont, Texas.
"Process upset resulted in flaring," the refinery said in a
regulatory filing with the Texas Commission on Environmental
Quality, noting it happened at a fluid catalytic cracking unit. It
said the above-normal emissions of carbon monoxide and other gases
ended Wednesday, lasting more than eight hours.
"Normal operations have been restored," the refinery said. "All
contractual commitments are anticipated to be met at this
time."
The Exxon Beaumont refinery expanded earlier this year and now
has a 630,000-barrel-a-day crude-distillation capacity, making it
one of the nation's largest refineries.
