Newcastle’s Wyoming Refinery has worked closely with its utility partners to investigate and determine possible connections between the February 12 crude heater incident and the momentary power outage that occurred that evening. While the investigation is inconclusive, Wyoming Refinery has determined the momentary power outage was not a direct result of the refinery incident.
Wyoming Refinery remains committed to providing updates as we continue to work to repair and restart the facility. Our progress remains on schedule, and we plan to restart the refinery as soon as safely possible once repairs are completed. We appreciate the continued patience of our customers and the community of Weston County during this effort.
