The plant, in Guangxi, which borders Vietnam, will not operate at a higher rate because of low profitability, the report cited the official as saying.

"The crude terminal is not up to the speed and the plant's processing configuration is not sophisticated enough, meaning overall costs are higher than average," the official said.
