US Midwest refinery nears completion of major modernization project

摘要

In early July 2013, BP announced that it has completed the commissioning and startup of a new, 250,000-bpd crude distillation unit at the Whiting refinery, marking a major achievement in the multi-billion-doflar upgrade of the facility in Northwest Indiana. Commissioning of the state-of-the-art distillation unit is a major milestone in the refinery upgrading project designed to unlock $1 billion in future operating cashflow.
