Shell says Norco, Louisiana chemical plant upset triggers flaring

Reuters - UK Focus

HOUSTON, Sept 22 (Reuters) - Royal Dutch Shell Plc (LSE: 0LN9.L - news) said flaring on Thursday at the Norco, Louisiana manufacturing complex shared with the Motiva Enterprises refinery was due to an upset in the company's chemical plant.

The refinery and chemical plant share the safety flare system at the complex and when the flare goes off it is sometimes reported as being due to a malfunction at the refinery.
