The Texas City Refinery explosion occurred on March 23, 2005, when a vapor cloud of natural gas and petroleum ignited and violently exploded at the isomerization (ISOM) process unit at the BP Texas City refinery in Texas City, Texas, killing 15 workers, injuring 180 others and severely damaging the refinery. The Texas City Refinery was the second-largest oil refinery in the state, and the third-largest in the United States with an input capacity of 437,000 barrels (69,500 m3) per day as of January 1, 2000. BP acquired the Texas City refinery as part of its merger with Amoco in 1999.

  • L'esplosione nella raffineria di Texas City è avvenuta il 23 marzo 2005, quando una nube di vapori di idrocarburi si è sprigionata dall'unità di isomerizzazione della raffineria BP a Texas City, Texas, provocando 15 morti e oltre 180 feriti e causando danni estesi agli impianti.Con 437000 barili-giorno di greggio in ingresso, nel 2000 la raffineria di Texas City era la seconda raffineria del Texas e la terza degli Stati Uniti come capacità produttiva. La BP aveva acquisito la raffineria tramite la sua fusione del 1999 con la Amoco e la ha successivamente ceduta alla Marathon Petroleum nel 2013.Stando ai rapporti investigativi della BP e dell'U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB), la causa diretta dell'incidente è stato il rilascio in atmosfera di una nube di idrocarburi (it)
