Indian Oil Corp said all units at its 274,000 barrels per day (bpd) Koyali refinery in western Gujarat are running normally except the 44,000 bpd crude distillation unit (CDU), where a minor fire occurred during a planned maintenance shutdown.

"There has been no fatality; however there are five cases of injuries to employees of Gujarat Refinery," the company said in a statement issued on Sunday.

IOC, the country's biggest refiner, had shut the 44,000 bpd crude unit 2-3 days ago for routine maintenance, a company source said, adding the shutdown will last for about 25 days.

Koyali refinery has five CDUs.
