Oct 20 (Reuters) - Calumet Specialty Products Partners
 CLMT.O  said on Friday that maintenance at its Shreveport oil
products refinery during the third quarter led to a loss of
nearly 300,000 barrels of lube oil and wax sales.
    The maintenance has since been completed, and the
Louisiana-based facility is currently processing over 45,000
barrels per day of feed, the company said.
    Calumet, which manufactures and produces specialty products,
also said the turnaround time for its Montana renewable hydrogen
plant would be brought forward to November instead of the
earlier expected 2024. 
    The facility would continue to operate at reduced throughput
until the turnaround begins.
    After the turnaround, the company expects the plant to
process over 12,000 barrels per day of predominantly untreated
feed in December, up from the 11,000 barrels in August.
    The company had flagged in August a leak in the steam
recovery system within its renewable hydrogen plant. The unit is
expected to be replaced by November.
