TOKYO, Dec 25 (Reuters) - Japan's biggest refiner, Eneos Corp, said on Thursday that it plans to shut the 128,000 barrels-per-day crude distillation unit (CDU) at its Marifu refinery in western Japan from mid-January to early April for scheduled maintenance.

The refiner, a unit of Eneos Holdings 5020.T, restarted the 172,100-bpd No. 2 CDU at its Kawasaki refinery near Tokyo on November 21 after it had been shut since August 16 for a planned turnaround, a company spokesperson said.

Eneos also brought back online the 77,000-bpd No. 3 CDU at the Kawasaki refinery on November 28 following scheduled maintenance that started on August 8.
