S.Korean refinery runs at 80-95%

摘要

Singapore-South Korean refiners are shaking off weaker overall margins and maintaining their run rates at 80-95% of plant capacities,mostly unchanged since the start of August,local sources said this week.Scheduled maintenance since June and poor margins trimmed South Korean refining output earlier in the summer,but refiners have so far held off further cuts.A strong rebound in the value of fuel oil relative to crude oil has also helped keep run rates high.
