Valero Energy on Monday reported an operational disruption to
multiple units of its oil refinery in Port Arthur, Texas, which led
to excessive gas emissions.
"At the Saturated Gas Recovery Unit, a process upset caused
hydrocarbon intrusion into the acid gas header, which caused upsets
in the Sulfur Recovery Units (SRU-546/SRU-547)," the refinery said
in a statement to the Texas Commission on Environmental
Quality.
It said the ensuing, above-normal emissions of sulfur dioxide
began Sunday night and ended early Monday, lasting about five hours
in total.
"Operations adjusted process operating conditions to bring the
units back into compliance," the refinery said.
The 395,000-barrel-a-day Port Arthur refinery is located east of
Houston.
