Neste Oil completes turnaround at Finland refinery
Neste Oil''s refinery in Naantali, Finland, is back in normal operation following the completion of a scheduled major maintenance turnaround.
The turnaround began in April and lasted about six weeks. According to Neste, the turnaround should ensure four to six years of quality performance from the refinery.
"The fact that we were able to complete this major project largely on-time and on-budget is very satisfying," said Refinery Manager Elina Herrala. "I am particularly proud of our success in carrying out over 450,000 hours of work without any lost workday accidents or hot work incidents."
During the turnaround, approximately 2,000 pieces of equipment were overhauled, and replacements were made for various process furnaces and other equipment. The turnaround and related investment projects cost €60 million.
A total of around 1,000 people took part in the turnaround, 700 of which were contractors'' employees.
