HOUSTON (Reuters) - The largest crude oil refinery in the United States was shutting down on Tuesday night due to flooding from Tropical Storm Harvey in its 603,000 barrel-per-day (bpd) Port Arthur, Texas, plant, said sources familiar with operations.
The refinery’s owner, Motiva Enterprises [MOTIV.UL], said the refinery was operating at 40 percent capacity on Tuesday evening. Earlier in the day, the refinery was operating at 60 percent of its capacity, the company said.
Energy industry intelligence service Genscape said the refinery was using its safety flare system on Tuesday night. Flares can be a signal of the shutdown of a unit or units at a refinery.
The flaring triggered messages on social media of a fire at the refinery.
Motiva said there was no fire at the refinery on Tuesday.
With the shutdown of the Motiva refinery, 19.6 percent or 3.65 million bpd of U.S. refining capacity will be shut due to Tropical Storm Harvey.

Its big and very true. Video of Motiva. Remember when you see fire stacks lit at a refinery something is wrong and they are having to burn excess. Sometimes that can be minor but it's always a problem at the plant. Also the restart at these places is slow and dangerous. twitter.com/leahdurain/status/902705836451131394

Whole lot of white people saving nogs in Houston right now. Will the blacks appreciate this? Or will we just hear stories about the few blacks who died and how the evil racists ignored them and the evil racist storm targeted them?
Adrian Wilson
Oil prices will keep going down or maintain. Offshore production and drilling was pretty much unaffected. The refining process that turns oil into gasoline is what's effected.
Carter Peterson
Addicks is saying 108.91' - not broke yet but definitely will soon according to the police chief.

Kek you must not know how things work bong. These nigs think whites are entitled to save them. They'll get in the boat, pull a gun, and push whitey overboard cause they deserve that boat.

What do you think happened after Katrina?

The reservoirs are just fine. Water is being slowly released at a rate the ground can absorb it. I repeat, there is no danger of the reservoirs having a catastrophic failure. If you live it the surrounding areas please stay indoors. It is more dangerous to evacuate. The reservoirs pose no imminent danger.
Holy shit look at that ugly ass suburban mccmansion. Hope it gets demo'ed after flood. >horrible hodgepodge of styles >none of them done right >no proper cornice >no ornaments >shitty brickwork >no dormer windows

The Army Corps estimates that a dam failure could cause flooding from Buffalo Bayou and Downtown all the way over to Brays Bayou and the Medical Center. For years, the Army Corp has been monitoring “seepage” of water underneath the dam gates. Those leaks led to the Corps designating the Addicks and Barker dams “extremely high risk” and among the six most critically in need of repair in the nation. houstonpublicmedia.org/articles/news/2016/03/07/139872/texas-has-thousands-of-bad-dams-two-in-houston-deemed-extremely-high-risk/

This is a dam specified as being one of the most likely to have a catastrophic failure - it was also meant to recieve maintenance starting next month after none for over 60 years.

Yes prices will jump. How much will be determined by extent of damage to refineries and how long it will take to repair and restart. It's a big unknown. We could be looking at anywhere from a few cents a gallon to75 cents. The increase will be felt as the production loss is felt in the supply line prices increases starting within a week.
