INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 1, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Calumet Specialty Products Partners, L.P.
(NASDAQ: CLMT) ("Calumet," "we," "our" or "us"), announced today
that Montana Renewables, LLC ("MRL") renewable diesel facility has
returned to normal operations. The previously announced steam
drum replacement and turnaround activity has been successfully
completed, and the facility is now processing over 12,000 barrels
per day of renewable feedstock.
"We are pleased to have completed the repair work on the cracked
steam drum and the turnaround which we pulled forward into
November," said Bruce Fleming, CEO
Montana Renewables, LLC. "MRL is now
running full, and we enter a strategically exciting 2024 with no
planned turnarounds. I am thankful to the team in Great Falls for their hard work to complete
the maintenance work and return the plant to safe, normal
operations."
The return to normal operations comes following an August,
September and October when the plant operated at 50% utilization
and was in complete shutdown for the turnaround most of November.
Over the next three months, MRL will run off the
renewable feedstock inventory built throughout the
maintenance period and resume the normal procurement of
advantaged feedstocks.
