HOUSTON: US energy companies were returning workers and restarting operations at storm-swept production facilities along the US Gulf Coast on Sunday , two days after Hurricane Delta barrelled through the area.

It can take several days after a storm passes for energy producers to evaluate facilities for damage, return workers and restore offshore production. The companies that operate oil and gas pipelines and process the offshore output also shut ahead of the storm. The area produces about 17 per cent of total daily US oil production and 5 per cent of daily natural gas production.Still remaining shut are the Calcasieu Waterway in Calcasieu and Cameron Parishes in Louisiana and the ports of Lake Charles and Cameron, Louisiana, near where Delta made landfall Friday evening.

Total SA continued restarting its 225,500 barrel-per-day Port Arthur, Texas, refinery on Sunday. The refinery, which is about 65 miles west of Creole, Louisiana, where the storm went ashore, lost power on Friday.
