(Adds Shell comment, details, background)

HOUSTON, Aug 5 (Reuters) - Royal Dutch Shell Plc is returning the crude unit (CDU) at its 225,300 barrel-per-day (bpd) Norco, Louisiana, refinery to normal operations, sources familiar with plant operations said on Monday.

The 225,300-bpd CDU remained in operation while repairs were performed on a portion of the unit this morning, the sources said.

Shell spokesman Ray Fisher said planned work was continuing at the refinery, but declined to offer details.

The CDU developed a problem during operations overnight and the repairs were to correct the malfunction, the sources said.

Shell began a planned overhaul of the coker at the refinery in July, the sources said. (Reporting by Erwin Seba Editing by Marguerita Choy and Tom Brown)
