As a result, in 2004 we flared 70% less often and nearly 90% fewer hours than in 2003, leading to significantly less pollution and nuisance from odours, noise and light. Air emissions from the refinery as reported to the State government have dropped 33% since 1999.We expect further improvements as we continue to improve plant efficiency.

Suerte!!
