NEW YORK, April 11 (Reuters) - A fire at Marathon Oil's (MRO.N: Quote, Profile, Research) 222,000-barrel-per-day Catlettsburg, Kentucky, refinery shut the plant's gasoline-making fluid catalytic cracking unit, a spokeswoman said on Friday.

"We had a fire in one of our substations and the catcracker was shut," Marathon spokeswoman Angela Graves said.

Graves declined to provide any information on the estimated restart date for the unit. (Reporting by Rebekah Kebede)
