Tesoro will push back the completion of a project to combine its Los Angeles-area refineries from early 2017 to mid-2017, Reuters reports. The company said the project would cost $460 million, compared to a previous range of $400 million to $425 million. Tesoro also said it would complete a $200 million railport in Washington — a project that has seen many delays due to a slow regulatory process — in late 2017.
Tesoro said last week it was performing unplanned maintenance at the Carson portion of the Los Angeles facility.
