Phillips 66 on Wednesday reported excessive gas emissions at its Borger refinery in the Texas panhandle.

"A release of sulfur dioxide from the SRUs [sulfur recovery units] exceeded the [max allowable without reporting] amount of 500 lbs," the refinery said in a statement to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, adding the emissions began Tuesday and have continued into Wednesday.

Phillips said it will look into what led to the above-normal emissions.

The 150,000 barrel-a-day Borger refinery is located northeast of Amarillo, near the city of Borger.
