REFINERY NEWS ROUNDUP: Louisiana refineries back on line after Ida sweeps through

Some Louisiana refineries are returning to normal operations after Hurricane Ida made landfall on Aug. 29 as a Category 4 hurricane. ExxonMobil said its Baton Rouge plant restored normal operations on Sept. 9 while PBF expects its Chalmette refinery back to normal next week. Still offline due to damage and/or lack of power are Shell's Norco refinery, Phillips 66's Alliance refinery and Valero's St. Charles plant.
