HOUSTON (Reuters) - Marathon Petroleum Corp has cut back production to 60 percent of capacity on the gasoline-producing unit at its 459,000 barrel per day (bpd) Galveston Bay Refinery in Texas City, Texas, said sources familiar with plant operations on Sunday.

The 120,000 bpd capacity Fluidic Catalytic Cracking Unit 3 cut production overnight as Tropical Storm Harvey dumped rain on southeast Texas and shut down transportation throughout the area, the sources said.
