TotalEnergies announces shutdown of Saudi Satorp refinery after strikes
French energy company TotalEnergies has confirmed the temporary shutdown of the Satorp refinery in Saudi Arabia following recent attacks that damaged part of the facility. The decision was taken as a precautionary safety measure after incidents occurred during the night of April 7 to 8.
According to information provided to investors, operational units at the refinery were stopped after one of the two processing trains was affected. The facility is jointly owned by Saudi oil giant Aramco, holding 62.5%, and TotalEnergies, which holds the remaining 37.5%.
The group stated that no casualties were reported. The shutdown follows reports from Saudi authorities describing multiple attacks targeting key energy installations in the kingdom, including the refinery located near the Gulf region.
Investigations and assessments are expected to determine the extent of the damage and the timeline for a possible restart of operations.
