The additional capacity will be on-stream by 2010. Construction work will start in 2007 once the required regulatory approvals have been secured. The project, once finished, will make the Port Arthur facility the largest in the US, it said.

 

Motiva currently owns and operates US refineries which have a combined capacity of around 780,000 barrels per day.
