TOKYO, Feb 19 (Reuters) - Fuji Oil Co Ltd  5017.T  plans to
shut its 143,000 barrel-per-day Sodegaura oil refinery for
scheduled maintenance in early May and restart the facility in
early July, a spokesman for the Japanese refiner said on Friday.
    Fuji Oil's only refinery is located east of Tokyo in Chiba
and was restarted this week after no damage was found following
a forced shut down due to a nearby earthquake on the weekend.
