Kuwait restarts crude unit at Mina Ahmadi refinery
DUBAI, January 11, 2015
Kuwait has restarted a 122,000 barrels per day (bpd) crude unit at the Mina Al Ahmadi refinery last week after a two-week shutdown for maintenance work, a spokesman of state-run oil refiner Kuwait National Petroleum Company (KNPC) said.
The crude unit was back online on January 2 with 80 per cent capacity and is expected to return to full capacity by January 21 after completion of all maintenance, spokesman Khalid Al Asousi told Reuters.
Mina Al Ahmadi, the country's largest refinery, has three crude distillation units with a total capacity of around 442,000 bpd. -- Reuters
