HOUSTON, June 29 - Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM.N) said operations were normal at its 150,000-barrel-per-day (bpd) Los Angeles-area refinery in Torrance, California, on Monday, following an early morning upset in an operating unit.

Exxon spokeswoman Aarti Ramachandran declined to identify the malfunctioning unit, but said the upset had a "minimal impact to production."
