Irving completes maintenance on Saint John refinery

CALGARY, Alberta, Dec 3 (Reuters) - Irving Oil Ltd said on Wednesday it has completed a maintenance turnaround at its 300,000 barrel a day refinery in Saint John, New Brunswick, that began Nov. 10.

The scheduled maintenance carried out by the closely held company included work on the refinery's No. 3 crude unit, the No. 2 rheniformer, replacing fans on a diesel hydrotreater and replacing tubes at its sulfur plant.

About 80 percent of the refinery's products are shipped to the United States. (Reporting by Scott Haggett; editing by Peter Galloway)
