摘要

New York-CVR Energy, the owner and operator of a 115,000 b/d Coffeyville, Kansas, refinery said November 5 it was talking with multiple parties about a crude supply agreement to replace its expiring deal with J. Aron & Company. While J. Aron does not intend to renew its supply deal with CVR for a full 12 months beyond December 31, the parties have been in talks regarding extending it for up to 45 days to ensure CVR an uninterrupted flow of crude while it negotiates with alternative suppliers, CVR said in a statement.
