Phillips 66's 159,688 b/d Borger refinery in the Texas Panhandle reported a "process upset" that started on Tuesday, according to a filing with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.

The filing dated Wednesday showed an emission event lasted for about seven hours on Tuesday, as the facility released an estimated 900 lbs. of sulfur dioxide from its East Flare, which exceeded the allowed limit of 500 lbs., the TCEQ filing showed.

The refinery produces a high percentage of transportation fuels among other products and they are distributed to markets in Colorado, New Mexico, West Texas and the Midcontinent region by pipelines.

Borger's facilities include crude distilling, naphtha reforming, fluid catalytic cracking, alkylation, hydrodesulfurization and delayed coking units, according to Phillips 66.
