Shell Deer Park, Texas, refinery running at 87% of capacity -sources

HOUSTON, May 11 (Reuters) - Royal Dutch Shell Plc’s joint-venture Deer Park, Texas, refinery is operating at 87% of its 275,000 barrel-per-day (bpd) capacity because of low demand brought on by the coronavirus epidemic, said sources familiar with plant operations.

Shell has not determined when it will begin to increase production at the refinery, which is a 50-50 joint-venture between Shell and Petroleos Mexicanos, the national oil company of Mexico. Shell is the managing partner. (Reporting by Erwin Seba Editing by Chizu Nomiyama)
