KINGSTON, June 23 (Reuters) - The Petroleum Corporation of Jamaica's oil refinery is back up to 90 percent of capacity after a shipping accident damaged its pier but full repairs will take up to 18 months, a company official said on Tuesday.

"We are about 90 percent normalcy now," Winston Watson, managing director of the company known as Petrojam, told Reuters on Tuesday. The Kingston refinery's capacity is 35,000 barrels per day. (Reporting by Horace Helps; Editing by Jane Sutton)
