India’s Paradip refinery hit by brief fire

摘要

A brief fire hit state-controlled Indian firm IOC’s new 300,000 b/d Paradip refinery amid a ramp-up in output. The fire at an atmospheric vacuum unit on 30 January was soon extinguished and operations and output were unaffected, oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan said. There were no injuries, with only minor damage to the unit’s outlet pumping section.
