U.S., Canadian Refiners Push Back $600 Million in Maintenance Amid COVID-19

SUGAR LAND--April 27, 2020--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Under more ordinary circumstances, refineries in the U.S. and Canada would be spending much of the spring season performing regular turnarounds to prepare for stronger fuel demand in the summer. But with COVID-19 precautions keeping drivers and less-essential refinery employees at home, refiners are reconsidering their turnaround schedules, with some delaying projects for a few weeks to sort out workforce issues and others pushing them back as late as autumn. Industrial Info is tracking nearly $600 million worth of maintenance projects at U.S. and Canadian refineries that have been delayed or otherwise affected by COVID-19.

Within this article: Details on some of the highest-valued maintenance projects in the U.S. and Canada that are facing scheduling issues due to COVID-19, including those from major companies such as Marathon Petroleum Corporation (NYSE:MPC), Husky Energy Incorporated (TSX:HSE) and SilverRange Financial Partners LLC.
