Riyadh, October 25, 2010

Saudi-based Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical Company (PetroRabigh) said on Monday its oil refining units had resumed work after a power outage halted operations.   

Petrochemical operations are also being prepared to resume work, the company said in a statement on the Saudi bourse website.   

The company had said on Sunday most operations were interrupted due to a power outage on Saturday. It gave no details then.
