U.S. Continues Record Refinery Input
SUGAR LAND--August 10, 2015--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Data from the United States Energy Information Administration (EIA) (Washington, D.C.) shows that U.S. refiners are continuing their record-breaking productivity, setting a new high for the agency's four-week rolling average for U.S. refinery inputs. The four weeks leading up to July 31 were the four highest weeks of U.S. refinery inputs in data that dates back to 1982.
Industrial Info is tracking more than $300 million in major planned maintenance activity at U.S. refineries that are planned to kick off from August through December this year. These and other unplanned outages will almost certainly curtail the record refining activity the U.S. has experienced this summer.
