Venezuela's largest oil refinery has resumed production after a massive blast killed 42 people last week, state oil company PDVSA says, according to BBC.
Last Saturday's explosion at the Amuay refinery in the west of the country set oil tanks on fire for days.
The cause of the blast is unclear, but officials have pointed to a gas leak.
Critics have accused PDVSA of neglecting maintenance as it funnels oil revenue into social programmes run by President Hugo Chavez' government.
"Operational activities have resumed safely and gradually" at Amuay, a company spokesman said on Friday.
Two production units with a combined capacity of 160,000 barrels of oil per day are now back up and running, with a third due to restart soon, PDVSA said.
