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).
There is no word yet on when the coker will be restarted, or
what caused the damage, Fisekci said.
Syncrude is a joint venture operated by Imperial Oil Ltd. (IMO).
The other stakeholders are Suncor Energy Inc. (SU), China Petroleum
& Chemical Corp. (600028.SH), Nexen Inc. (NXY), Murphy Oil
Corp. (MUR) and Mocal Energy Ltd.
