EVENING SHIFT
The third-biggest refinery in the U.S. suffered a fire Saturday near Houston, hours after a Los Angeles plant was partially shut by a blaze, potentially boosting gasoline prices from Texas to California.
Exxon Mobil Corp.s Baytown, Texas, refinery was fighting a furnace fire at a gasoline hydrofiner, which removes sulfur from fuel to meet clear-air regulations, people familiar with the matter said. Phillips 66 shut a crude unit Friday night at its Carson plant after a fire.
