DALLAS, Texas, June 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Alon USA Partners, LP (NYSE: ALDW) ("Alon
Partners") today announced that the Big
Spring refinery experienced an unplanned shutdown on
May 30, 2016 due to a power outage
caused by inclement weather. The power outage affected multiple
units, which we are working to safely return to service. We now
expect total throughput at the Big
Spring refinery to average approximately 70,000 barrels per
day for the second quarter of 2016.
Despite the power outage, we still expect to generate sufficient
cash to support a distribution for the second quarter.
