Major Projects

IndianOil continues to lay emphasis on infrastructure development. Towards this end, a number of schemes have been initiated with increasing emphasis on project execution in compressed schedules as per world benchmarking standards. Schemes for improvement and increased profitability through debottlenecking / modifications / introduction of value added products are being taken up in addition to grassroots facilities. Project systems have been streamlined in line with ISO standards.

CONSTRUCTION OF TANKS AND BLENDING FACILITY AT VADINAR (5 X 85000 KL) Project Cost: Rs. 267.00 crore Expected Commissioning: September 2012 Benefit: The proposed scheme would ensure the reduction in demurrage being paid at Vadinar crude oil receipt terminal. Brief Description: Project consists of construction 5 tanks of 85000 KL capacity each to store HS-Heavy crude oil along with crude oil mixing facility at Vadinar.   REVAMP OF FCC UNIT AT MATHURA Project Cost: Rs. 1000.00 crore Expected Commissioning: January 2013 Benefit: The project would improve reliability of the unit, increase LPG production consequently, maximize value added propylene to be recovered from LPG stream through PRU revamp. Brief Description: Project consists of Revamp of Reactor – Regenerator Section, Third Stage Separator (TSS) for reduction of particulate emission, modification in the Gas-Con Section and the OSBL (outside battery limit), Revamp of existing Propylene Recovery Unit (PRU) and other related facilities.   BUTADIENE EXTRACTION UNIT AT PANIPAT Project Cost: Rs. 341.50 crore Expected Commissioning: February 2013 Benefit: This project would provide feedstock for the upcoming Styrene Butadiene Rubber project at Panipat Brief Description: As a part of integrating petrochemical value chain and enhancing the value addition from Panipat Naphtha Cracker Project (PNCP), production of Styrene Butadiene Rubber from butadiene feedstock available from Panipat Naphtha Cracker project is envisaged.   INTEGRATED CRUDE OIL HANDLING FACILITIES AT PARADIP Project Cost: Rs. 1492.33 crore Expected Commissioning: The SPM offshore installation mechanically completed. Commissioning will be undertaken during fair weather window, i.e. between November 2012 to March 2013. Benefit: The proposed facilities would enhance crude handling capacity at Paradip port. Brief Description: The proposal is for installation of 2nd SPM for Paradip Refinery and 3rd SPM & sub-sea crude oil transfer pipeline with associated facilities as a part of Integrated Offshore Crude Handling Facilities at Paradip.   STYRENE BUTADIENE RUBBER (SBR) AT PANIPAT Project Cost: Rs. 890 crore Expected Commissioning: 1st quarter 2013 Benefit: Value addition for naphtha / butadiene by forward integration with SBR. Brief Description: As part of integrating petrochemical value chain and enhancing value from the Naphtha Cracker at Panipat, this project envisages production of Styrene Butadiene Rubber from the Butadiene feedstock available from the Naphtha Cracker. This project is being executed as a joint venture – Indian Synthetic Rubber Ltd. (ISRL) - between IndianOil; Marubeni, Japan; and TSRC, Taiwan.   GRASSROOTS REFINERY PROJECT AT PARADIP (ORISSA) Project Cost: Rs. 29,777.00 crore Expected Commissioning: April - September 2013 Benefit: The project will help in partially meeting the deficit in distillates viz. LPG, Naphtha, MS, Jet/Kero, Diesel and other products, in the eastern part of the country. The complex will generate intermediate petrochemicals feedstock. Brief Description: A 15 MMTPA refinery is being constructed at Paradip in Orissa. The refinery will have, apart from a Crude and Vacuum Distillation Unit, a Hydrocracking Unit, a Delayed Coker Unit and other secondary processing facilities. This will be the most modern refinery in India with a nil-residue production, and the products would meet stringent specifications. IndianOil has taken over 3344 acres of land for the project and necessary infrastructure development jobs prior to setting up of the main refinery are in progress.   DE-BOTTLENECKING OF SALAYA-MATHURA CRUDE PIPLEINE Project Cost: Rs. 1584.00 crore Expected Commissioning: 30 months after receipt of statutory clearances  Benefit: With the proposed de-bottlenecking/augmentation of SMPL, the refineries would be in a position to process more crude oil. Brief Description: The proposal is for enhancing the capacity of Salaya-Viramgam section from 21 MMTPA to 25.0 MMTPA, [Viramgam-Koyali section from 8.5 MMTPA to 9.0 MMTPA, Viramgam-Chaksu section from 13.5 MMTPA to 16.5 MMTPA, Chaksu-Mathura section from 7.5 MMTPA to 9.2 MMTPA and Chaksu-Panipat section from 6 MMTPA to 7.3 MMTPA].   Paradip-Haldia-Durgapur LPG Pipeline Project Cost: Rs. 913.00 crore Expected Commissioning: 30 months after receipt of statutory clearances  Benefit: The pipeline will facilitate cost-effective transportation of LPG from Paradip and Haldia to the LPG bottling plants at Balasore, Budge Budge, Kalyani & Durgapur. Brief Description: The proposal envisages laying a pipeline for transportation of LPG from Paradip and Haldia to the LPG bottling plants at Balasore, Budge Budge, Kalyani & Durgapur. Total length of the pipeline is estimated to be about 700 km.   Augmentation of Paradip-Haldia-Barauni Crude Oil Pipeline Project Cost: Rs. 586.00 crore Expected Commissioning: 30 months after receipt of statutory clearances   Benefit: The project would enhance the existing capacity from 11.0 MMTPA to 15.2 MMTPA Brief Description: The proposal envisages laying of 65 KM loopline and construction of 5 nos. of 60,000 KL tanks at Paradip and 1 tank of 40,000 KL capacity at Barauni. The project also envisages construction of one additional pumping station and providing additional pumping units at 3 locations.     PARADIP-RAIPUR-RANCHI PIPELINE Project Cost: Rs. 1793.60 crore Benefit: The proposed pipeline would ensure the evacuation of Paradip Refinery products and uninterrupted supply to major parts of Orissa, Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand. Brief Description: Project consists of laying of 1108 km long product pipeline with intermediate pumping stations at Jatni and New Sambalpur and delivery stations at Jatni, Jharsuguda, Ranchi, Raipur and Korba. The pipeline will be having a telescopic diameter of 18”/14”/12”/10” OD.
