HOUSTON, March 17 (Reuters) - Royal Dutch Shell Plc
restarted the large crude distillation unit (CDU) at its
318,000-barrel-per-day (bpd) Deer Park, Texas, refinery on
Wednesday, said sources familiar with plant operations.
The 270,000-bpd DU-2 CDU was expected to restart by the
middle of this week for the first time since it was shut by a
Feb. 14 pump seal failure.
