Syncrude Operating At Two-Thirds Capacity After Coker Fire
Published March 05, 2012 Dow Jones Newswires
CALGARY The Syncrude oil-sands project in northeastern Alberta is operating at reduced capacity after a fire at its refinery, a spokeswoman for the project’s largest stakeholder said Monday.
A fire late Friday at one of three coking units at the Syncrude project will reduce Syncrude’s production to two-thirds of its normal capacity of 350,000 barrels of oil a day, said Siren Fisekci, a spokeswoman for Canadian Oil Sands Ltd. (COS.T).
