Total SA's (TOT) 153,000-barrels-a-day Dutch Vlissingen refinery
is restarting this week after maintenance and is expected to be
fully online by mid-July, the company said Tuesday.
"We started shutting down units from the May 18...we are
starting now and we expect to be online before mid-July," a Total
spokeswoman in the Netherlands said. She declined to give details
about the units involved in the maintenance program.
Total also carried out environmental projects in conjunction
with the maintenance which were aimed at reducing the refinery's
sulfur, carbon and nitrogen emissions.
