Unipetrol Reduces Capacity Due to Fault

Czech oil refiner Unipetrol will reduce capacity at its 110,000 bpd Litvinov oil refinery for two weeks due to a technical fault, the company said on Wednesday.

The company said the fault involved pipes in hydrogen pre-heating furnaces on the hydrockracking unit.

It said it was working with partners to minimise the impact of the reduction and was running its other refinery at Kralupy at full capacity.
