Essar Oil to shut Vadinar refinery for maintenance

Essar Oil will this week shut its 4,05,000 barrel-per-day Vadinar refinery in Gujarat for about four weeks to carry out maintenance work.

The refinery, the nation's second biggest, will be shut for the maintenance job around Friday, a company official said.

The company will upgrade some units during the planned maintenance shutdown.

The shutdown was earlier planned for middle of 2015, but was put back to September.
