VICKSBURG, Miss. - Beginning March 5, 2020, Ergon's naphthenic refinery in Vicksburg, Mississippi, will undergo a planned turnaround. In addition to necessary maintenance and upkeep, Ergon is reinvesting in process safety and reliability improvements to ensure longevity of systems and operations.

As a family-owned company, Ergon has a track record of reinvesting, which has helped the company remain reliable and positioned them well to take advantage of the shifting crude and regulatory landscape.

The turnaround process will last a total of 26 days. Customers should not expect any supply disruptions during this planned maintenance period.
