Oct. 15 (Bloomberg) -- Nippon Oil Corp., the nation’s largest oil refiner, will keep its Mizushima No. 2 crude distillation unit shut until at least the end of March because of weak domestic demand, a company spokeswoman said by phone from Tokyo.

The company shut the 110,000 barrel-a-day unit on July 24 for maintenance.
