A fire broke out in a crude distillation unit at Germany's 215,000 b/d Vohburg-Neustadt refinery complex on 16 October, operator Bayernoil said.
The fire occurred in the sole CDU in the Neustadt section, the smaller of the two sites, and was put out within a few minutes, Bayernoil said. The cause and the extent of the damage are not yet known.
Traders in the region have not reported any impact on supply so far.
Bayernoil is a joint venture comprising Varo Energy, Italy's Eni and Rosneft Deutschland. Rosneft Deutschland is one of Russian state-controlled Rosneft's two German subsidiaries, both of which have been under the trusteeship of Germany's Federal Network Agency since 2022.
Rosneft has said it intends to sell its German assets. The company is actively pursuing the sale by the end of this year, according to the German government.
