BP announces restoration of power following outage at Indiana oil refinery
Power Restoration: BP has restored power at its Whiting, Indiana oil refinery, which has a capacity of 440,000 barrels per day, after an external power outage led to temporary evacuations and the activation of the emergency response team.
Fire Incident: A fire occurred at the refinery last week due to an operational incident, resulting in multiple units being taken offline, and BP has begun the restart process for its fluid catalytic cracking unit.
Maintenance Work: The refinery had previously initiated planned maintenance in mid-September, which was expected to last for two months, affecting various units including the crude processing unit.
Refinery Significance: The Whiting refinery is the largest in the U.S. Midwest and produces a variety of liquid fuels such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel.
