BP Whiting reformer, blending oil unit restarting -sources

(Adds company no comment)

HOUSTON, Aug 4 (Reuters) - BP Plc was restarting a reformer and a blending oil unit on Thursday at the 413,500 barrel per day (bpd) Whiting, Indiana refinery, said sources familiar with plant operations.

A BP spokesman declined to discuss production at the Whiting refinery.

Production has been cut between 20 percent and 25 percent at the refinery since the weekend outage of the reformer and blending oil unit, the sources said.

The Whiting refinery is also working to fix a leak of wastewater sediment that has exceeded permitted limits for discharges into Lake Michigan. (Reporting by Erwin Seba; editing by Grant McCool)
