EEHL’s 10.5
MTPA refinery at Vadinar (that represents approximately
10% of India’s refining capacity), in Gujarat,
Western India, has been built with state-of-the-art
technology and has the capability to produce petrol
and diesel suitable for use in India as well as
advanced international markets. It will also produce
LPG, Naphtha, light diesel oil, aviation turbine
fuel and kerosene. The refinery has been designed
to handle a diverse range of crude from sweet to
sour and light to heavy.
EEHL supplies to bulk consumers and has already
opened more than 1,500 retail outlets. The world-class
refinery produces middle distillates like aviation
turbine fuel, kerosene oil and high-speed diesel,
which form over 60% of India's demand. We also produce
LPG and transport fuels including petrol conforming
to Euro III and Euro IV product quality standards
for the domestic and export markets.
High automation, the latest technology and an
ideal location on India's West Coast will give
us significant competitive advantages. We import
crude oil freely in VLCCs, which offers considerable
cost savings especially since we are one of the
closest refineries to the Middle East, the main
supply source for crude oil. With an eye on future
value building, we have also created the infrastructure
to double our refining capacity at a third of
the cost and in half the time of a green-field
project. |
