Delek US Holdings reported an equipment breakdown that led to
above-normal gas emissions over the weekend at its oil refinery in
Big Spring, Texas.
"Equipment malfunction resulted in exceeding the SO2 [sulfur
dioxide] 500 pound Reportable Quantity," the refinery said in a
statement to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, noting
the emissions happened Saturday afternoon and evening, lasting
about 6 hours total.
"Operational moves were immediately made to minimize emissions
and were aggressive to the best extent possible," the refinery
added.
The 73,000-barrel-a-day Big Spring refinery is located in west
Texas, 44 miles east of Midland.
