TOKYO (Reuters) – Japan’s Cosmo Oil, a unit of Cosmo Energy Holdings Co Ltd, plans to shut the 75,000-barrel-per-day (bpd) No.1 crude distillation unit (CDU) at its Chiba refinery, near Tokyo, for planned maintenance in the autumn, a company spokesperson said on Wednesday.
It also plans to shut the 100,000-bpd CDU at its Sakai refinery in western Japan from the summer to the autumn for a scheduled turnaround, he said.
The maintenance of both units is expected to take about two months each, he said.
