CVR Energy, Inc. has announced that its subsidiary, Coffeyville Resources Nitrogen Fertilizers, LLC, has restarted its urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) plant taken out of service Sept. 30 after a rupture in a high-pressure vessel.
Because of the rupture affecting the UAN vessel, the company moved up a planned biannual turnaround for the entire plant by a few days. With the turnaround completed on Oct. 29, the company subsequently has been producing and selling only anhydrous ammonia fertilizer pending resumption of UAN production.
