MOSCOW (MRC) -- Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas coastal refineries operated by Royal Dutch Shell Plc and Chevron Corp were monitoring a developing weather disturbance in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico that may produce heavy wind and rain later this week, reported Reuters with reference to company spokesmen's statement.
"We’re just closely monitoring the forecast and preparing for a potentially high-wind and heavy-rain event," Shell spokesman Ray Fisher said.
Shell operates refineries in Convent and Norco, Louisiana, and jointly operates a refinery in Deer Park, Texas, with Mexico’s national oil company Petroleos de Mexicanos (Pemex).
Chevron operates refineries in Pascagoula, Mississippi, and Pasadena, Texas.
As MRC wrote previously, in April 2019, Royal Dutch Shell’s US unit said that it had made one of its biggest oil discoveries in the Blacktip deepwater well in the US Gulf of Mexico. Blacktip, operated by Shell and co-owned by US oil giant Chevron Corp, Equinor ASA and Repsol, is the company’s second material discovery in the Perdido Corridor.
Royal Dutch Shell plc is an Anglo-Dutch multinational oil and gas company headquartered in The Hague, Netherlands and with its registered office in London, United Kingdom. It is the biggest company in the world in terms of revenue and one of the six oil and gas "supermajors". Shell is vertically integrated and is active in every area of the oil and gas industry, including exploration and production, refining, distribution and marketing, petrochemicals, power generation and trading.
