MUSCAT: Oman Oil Refineries and Petroleum Industries Co (Orpic) plans a scheduled turnaround work at its 106,000 barrels per day Mina al-Fahal refinery in November for three weeks, the operator said.
"Mina al-Fahal (MAF) Refinery is scheduled to have a planned mini-turnaround in November. This is in order to upgrade certain equipment," the company said in an emailed statement.
"The mini-turnaround will take three weeks from start to finish - including shutdown and startup. There will be no impact on customer supply."
Orpic operates two refineries: Sohar with a total processing capacity of 116,000 barrels per day (bpd) of Omani crude and Mina al-Fahal.
Oman pumps around 950,000 bpd of crude and aims to maintain this level for the next two to three years. (Reuters)
