unexpected power interruption, resulting in loss of feed gas to the

The incident affected the Bill Greehey refineries complex's
210,000 barrel-a-day West Plant. The flaring began Tuesday
afternoon and ended later that night, Valero said.
It wasn't clear if production was affected. Representatives from
Valero weren't immediately available.
