A 5.5 metres (18 ft) inside diameter semi-works retort (the Irati Profile Plant) with capacity of 2,400 <a href="/wiki/Ton" title="Ton">tons</a> per day, was brought on line in 1972, and began limited commercial operation in 1980. The first retort that used current Petrosix technology was a 0.2 metres (0.7 ft) internal diameter retort pilot plant started in 1982. It was followed by a 2 metres (6.6 ft) retort demonstration plant in 1984. A 11 metres (36 ft) retort was brought into service in December 1991, and commercial production started in 1992. The company operates two retorts which process 8,500 tons of oil shale daily.<sup id="cite_ref-fossilenergy_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-fossilenergy-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-qian_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-qian-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Retort">Retort</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Petrosix&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Retort"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The Petrosix 11 metres (36 ft) vertical shaft retort is the world's largest operational surface oil shale pyrolysis reactor.<sup id="cite_ref-fossilenergy_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-fossilenergy-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-laherrere_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-laherrere-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It was designed by <a href="/wiki/Cameron_Engineers" class="mw-redirect" title="Cameron Engineers">Cameron Engineers</a>.
