Neste Singapore’s first production line, which meets renewable diesel requirements set for the US market, encountered unforeseen equipment failure, the company said in a statement on Tuesday October 22 released to Fastmarkets.

The equipment failure occurred following the facility’s third-quarter planned maintenance shutdown and related start-up in October.
