Reliance plans crude unit maintenance at Jamnagar complex
Reliance Industries Ltd plans to shut a crude unit and some secondary units at its 704,000 barrels per day (bpd) export focused plant for maintenance in September-October, three sources familiar with the plan said.
Reliance is the operator of the world’s biggest refining complex which houses two plants with a combined capacity of about 1.4 million barrels per day.
The crude unit and secondary units including hydrotreater will be shut for 3-4 weeks from mid-September, they said, adding the refiner also plans to shut a fluid catalytic cracker at its 660,000 bpd site for 47 days.
The shutdown of units would curtail Reliance’s crude imports and may push up gasoline margins, trade sources said.
