Motiva Enterprises said Thursday that its oil refinery in Port
Arthur, Texas, experienced an operational snag at a gasoline-making
fluid catalytic cracking unit that resulted in above-normal gas
emissions.
"The facility took immediate action to stabilize the unit and
minimize flaring," the Motiva Port Arthur refinery said in a
statement to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, noting
the emissions occured Wednesday afternoon and lasted for a little
over an hour.
The 603,000-barrel-a-day Motiva Port Arthur refinery, located
east of Houston, is owned by Saudi Arabia's state-controlled Aramco
and is the largest refinery in the U.S.
