Oil products shipments disrupted at two TotalEnergies refineries

(Reuters) - Oil products shipments from TotalEnergies' Donges and La Mede refineries were disrupted on Thursday, a company spokesperson said, with 20% of operational staff having joined strike action over the government's pension reforms.

The disruption is part of nationwide action against the government's plan to raise the retirement age by two years to 64, which was forced through parliament last month but is set to be reviewed by France's Constitutional Council on Friday.

The strikes had previously shuttered production at the company's refineries, but its Gonfreville, Donges and La Mede sites were increasing production on Thursday, the spokesperson said.
