Exxon Mobil Corp.'s (XOM) refinery in Beaumont, Texas, reported a tripped compressor over the weekend at a gasoline-making fluid catalytic cracking unit that resulted in the flaring of gases.

"Process streams were routed to the flares to minimize emissions," the refinery said in a statement to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, noting the above-normal gas flaring happened Sunday and lasted less than three hours. "All contractual commitments are anticipated to be met."

The 362,000-barrel-a-day Beaumont refinery is 90 miles east of Houston.
