Reliance Industries on Wednesday said that a secondary unit at its export-focussed refinery in the western state of Gujarat has been shut since June 6, which may delay the shipment of some product cargoes.
”The Fluidized Catalytic Cracker Unit (FCCU) in our SEZ refinery at Jamnagar had to be taken for an emergency shutdown on 6th June 2021. All other units at the Jamnagar Refining complex are operating normally,” the company said.
The refinery, which has the capacity to process 704,000 barrels of crude per day (bpd), is part of the world’s biggest refining complex in the city of Jamnagar in Gujarat state.
Reliance, which operates the refining complex, did not give a reason for the “emergency shutdown” of the refinery’s fluidized catalytic cracking unit (FCCU).
