NEWELL, WV — Ergon – West Virginia Inc. announced today that the force majeure declared on June 1, 2021, will be lifted effective Friday, July 9. The declaration of force majeure was the result of a significant fire at the Newell, West Virginia, refinery on May 29.

The refinery has been operational since mid-June, and inventories of paraffinic base oils and waxes have been replenished to adequate levels, allowing Ergon to resume sales to customers on a ratable monthly basis.

“Thanks to the quick and effective response of local fire departments and Ergon employees, damage from the fire was contained to the unifiner process,” commented Doug Burdick, Vice President – Refining for Ergon – West Virginia. “Although we have been able to restart base oil production, ongoing repairs to the naphtha unit will continue to impact gasoline production.
