SAN RAMON, Calif. (AP) - Chevron, the second-largest U.S. oil
company, announced today (Thursday) it plans to build a test plant
at its refinery in Pascagoula, Mississippi.
The plant will test a process that could boost the yields of
products refined from heavy oil.
Construction on the plant, which has already received needed
permits, will begin later this year. The facility will have a daily
capacity of 3,500 barrels, and will use a process in development
since 2003 to refine heavy oil into gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.
