Marathon Martinez Renewables running at 22,000 b/d

Marathon Petroleum's California renewable fuels joint venture with Neste is running at 22,000 b/d, 46pc of its nameplate capacity, following two fires at the plant in November last year.

The Martinez, California, renewables plant will continue to run at 22,000 b/d as Marathon works with regulators and repairs the facility, the refiner's president Maryann Mannen said on an earnings call today. Mannen did not give a time line for the plant to reach its nameplate 48,000 b/d capacity or details on whether repairs are underway.

The Martinez facility has been undergoing a conversion from a traditional petroleum refinery to a renewable fuels plant since March 2021 and was slated to reach full production of mostly renewable diesel (RD) by the end of this year.

But two November fires at the plant led to an investigation by the US Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB).
