Chevron Corp. restored oil production at an offshore platform in its Eugene Island field after a one-hour shutdown yesterday, according to Scott Walker, a company spokesman.

“Chevron shut in a shallow-water platform in the Gulf of Mexico’s Eugene Island field yesterday which resulted in a release of 0.00717 gallons of oil,” Walker said in an e-mailed statement today. “The production has been restored and the shut-in lasted less than an hour.”
