Phillips 66's 272,135 b/d Bayway Refinery in Linden, N.J., had an unspecified equipment upset on Sunday as extreme cold temperatures interrupted the facility's operations, a state regulatory filing showed.
In a Sunday filing to the state's Department of Environmental Protection, the company said it opened an acid gas valve due to an "instrumentation freeze up."
The National Weather Service had issued an extreme cold warning for parts of northern New Jersey including Linden due to temperatures in the single digits accompanying by high wind.
The Bayway Refinery's facilities include crude distilling, naphtha reforming, fluid catalytic cracking, solvent de-asphalting, hydrodesulfurization and alkylation units. It is one of several refineries on the New York Harbor, the delivery point of NYMEX product futures.
