    "An oil refinery fire near the Texas coast was put out Tuesday and a shelter-in-place order was lifted, hours after a large explosion at the complex shot plumes of smoke into the air, officials said.

    "No one was injured in Monday’s explosion at the #Valero refinery in #PortArthur, about 90 miles (145 kilometers) east of Houston, Mayor Charlotte M. Moses said. She had urged residents in parts of the west side of the city to stay put.

    " 'There’s been an explosion, yes, but we’re OK; everybody’s OK,' she said. 'They’re trying to put the fire out as quickly as possible.'

    "Residents at least several miles away said they felt their homes shake. Some schools in the area were closed Tuesday as a precaution.

    "The explosion comes amid a spike in gas prices driven by uncertainty over the global oil supply because of the Iran war.

    "The refinery has about 770 employees and can process about 435,000 barrels of oil per day, according to Valero’s website. The plant refines heavy sour crude oil into gasoline, diesel and jet fuel."

  9. The Daily Beast Latest Articles | Huge Explosion at Oil Refinery Forces Residents to Shelter in Place by Leigh Kimmins

    @NatCon2022A massive explosion tore through one of the country’s largest oil refineries Monday, sending towering plumes of smoke into the sky and forcing nearby residents to shelter in place. The blast struck the Valero refinery near the Texas coast, around 90 miles east of Houston—a facility capable of processing 435,000 barrels of oil per day and employing about 770 workers. No injuries were reported. “There’s been an explosion, yes, but we’re OK; everybody’s OK,” the local mayor said. “They’re trying to put the fire out as quickly as possible.” The timing could hardly be worse. Gas prices are already spiking amid global supply uncertainty driven by President Donald Trump’s war in Iran. Early indications on Tuesday showed that the price of oil was ticking back up to around $102 a barrel after a slight reprieve caused by Trump’s insistence (since contradicted by Iran) that peace could be on the horizon. Texas state Rep. Christian Manuel urged residents near the refinery to stay indoors. “Please limit outdoor activity, keep windows and doors closed, and follow guidance from local officials,” he said.

  10. 🔥 🇺🇸 "Rafineria #Valero w Port Arthur (Teksas) jest jednym z najważniejszych obiektów energetycznych w USA, o zgłoszonej zdolności przerobowej wynoszącej prawie 400 000 baryłek dziennie, przetwarzającym ciężką, kwaśną ropę naftową na produkty o wysokiej wartości, takie jak benzyna, olej napędowy i paliwo lotnicze."

    No to właśnie doszło w niej do eksplozji.

    Co za przypadek?🤔

    Niszczą sobie nawzajem światowi wojownicy infrastrukturę paliwową i energetyczną, odsalarki wody, blokują trasy żeglugi.
    Bogole dadzą sobie radę, zapłacą za to ludzie.
    Jak tak dalej pójdzie, będziemy jeździć konno lub rowerem. Bardzo lubię konie i rowery.
