Sinopec's Jinling refinery plans a second-quarter overhaul of a major crude oil unit
Sinopec's Jinling refinery plans a second-quarter overhaul of a major crude oil unit and related secondary facilities that will take more than half its capacity off-stream for about a month, an industry source said.
Jinling, in the coastal province of Jiangsu in eastern China, aims to shut a 160,000 bpd crude unit, a hydrocracker with annual capacity of 1.7 million tonnes, a delayed coking unit of 1.5 million tonnes and other downstream facilities, the source said.
