Dow Jones News
As Hurricane Idalia approaches the west coast of Florida, some
terminals have taken precautions with plans to shut down later this
evening.
Kinder Morgan Inc. has confirmed that it is planning to shut
down the Tampa refined products terminal as well as the Central
Florida Pipeline system later Tuesday. Sources said that the
terminal is expected to close at 8 p.m. ET this evening.
"Our Orlando refined products facility remains operational at
this time, but we are closely monitoring the storm's progress to
prepare for any impacts," Kinder Morgan spokesperson Amy Baek said
in an emailed statement.
Kinder Morgan has also closed the Port Manatee, Port Sutton and
Tampaplex terminals.
Sources said that Chevron Corp.'s terminal in Tampa has shut
down as well, and that because vessel traffic has been slowed, the
company's Panama City terminal is out of fuel.
Additionally, the Center Point Terminal in Jacksonville is
closing this evening at 10 p.m. ET.
