This article is for subscribers only.
China National Petroleum Corp. resumed crude supplies through a pipeline to its refinery in Dalian after a blast at the port reduced plant operations and caused a spill that the government said may affect fish farms.
PetroChina Co., a Hong Kong-listed unit, has increased production at the refinery after the pipeline started up at 10:45 p.m. local time on July 19, CNPC said in a statement on its website today. PetroChina cut the refinery’s output after a pipeline explosion at the port on July 16 disrupted seabourne cargo deliveries and leaked oil into the sea.
