Royal Dutch/Shell Group will close an oil-processing unit at its 390,000 barrel-a-day Pernis refinery in the Netherlands in September for four or five weeks of maintenance, Reuters reported, citing an unidentified spokesman.

Maintenance turnarounds in the coming months are also scheduled for BP Plc’s 400,000 barrel a day Rotterdam plant and Total SA’s 149,000 Vlissingen, Netherlands plant, Reuters said, without citing anyone.
