Chevron Corp. said Thursday that its Pasadena, Texas, refinery
had an operational disruption that led to excessive gas
emissions.
In a statement to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality,
the refinery cited a "process upset that caused excess emissions
from flares and process heaters."
Chevron said the emissions, including more than 2,000 pounds of
sulfur dioxide, began Wednesday and ended Thursday, lasting just
about 24 hours.
The 110,000-barrel-a-day refinery, which Chevron bought from
Brazil's state-controlled Petroleo Brasileiro S/A about a year ago,
is located in the Houston area.
