CORRECT: Husky Energy: Lima, Ohio, Refinery Isocracker Damaged In Fire

("Husky Energy: Lima, Ohio, Refinery Isocracker Damaged In Fire," published at 11:53 a.m. EST, incorrectly included a U.S. stock price for the company. The correct version follows.)

OTTAWA (Dow Jones)--Husky Energy Inc. (HUSKF, HSE.T) said Tuesday an isocracker at its refinery in Lima, Ohio, was damaged by a minor fire over the weekend.

The fire was quickly extinguished after it started on Sunday afternoon and there were no injuries, a Husky spokesman said. The company is assessing the damage to the isocracker.

The fire occurred as Calgary-based Husky is conducting a maintenance turnaround at the refinery, which has a maximum capacity of 160,000 barrels of oil per day. Husky shut down the refinery for maintenance on Oct. 1, and Husky spokesman Graham White said the turnaround is nearly complete.

In a separate incident at the Lima refinery Sunday, an oil storage tank was damaged and released a fine oil mist into the air that traveled two and a half miles and dirtied some vehicles, White said. Husky offered to wash any cars dirtied by the spray and has cleaned at least 200 vehicles so far, White said.

White said the company had communicated with regulators about the discharge and that there were no health risks. The company is assessing the damage to the tank and investigating the cause of the discharge.
