(Reuters) PBF Energy was in the process of restarting a hydrotreater and fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCC) at its newly-acquired Torrance refinery near Los Angeles on Wednesday, a source familiar with the matter said.
The refiner on Monday reported an unplanned flaring event at the facility. The incident impacted operations on the FCC, which produces gasoline, and the hydrotreater, the source said.
