Project Details
The Guru Gobind Singh Refinery will be a zero bottoms, energy efficient, environment- friendly, high distillate yielding complex refinery that will be producing clean fuels and polypropylene by processing heavy, sour and acidic crudes.
As part of this project, the following are being established:
- Grassroot refinery of 9 MMTPA in Bathinda, Punjab
- Cross-country Crude Oil Pipeline (approx. 1014 km) from Mundra to Bathinda traversing through the states of Gujarat, Rajasthan and Haryana
- Crude receipt facilities - Single Point Mooring ( SPM) buoy capable of handling Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCC) for crude import located at Mundra, Gujarat, India
- Crude Oil Terminal (COT) approximately six kms away from the sea shore at Mundra, Gujarat
- Captive Power Plant of 165 MW for refinery power and steam requirements
The refinery will be a world class, state of the art refinery incorporating the latest technologies enabling it to excel the current specifications available in the country. The refinery configuration has been developed after extensive linear programming, keeping the domestic and regional requirements in mind, the latest cost effective technologies available for generating required fuel specifications, and future changes. The present configuration translates into one of the highest Nelson Indexes* for the refinery amongst all the refineries in the country.
This refinery is the single largest investment at any location in Punjab and is the first Oil and Gas industry being set up in Punjab. The Refinery is expected to create a large number of jobs directly and indirectly in the region, which will lead to industrialization and development of Punjab
* The Nelson Complexity Index indicates the value addition potential of a refinery
