Sunoco Inc. (SUN) said Monday evening that the fluid catalytic
cracking unit at its Marcus Hook, Pa., refinery was shut down
following an explosion Sunday night.
The refinery is running at 85% of planned rates, company
spokesman Thomas Golembeski said. The refinery hadn't been running
at full capacity prior to the explosion because of economic
conditions.
The fire is still burning but is contained, Golembeski said.
