Refinery Process

The presently approved maximum capacity of the proposed refinery is 100,000bpsd. The entire project will be Greenfield, and there is room for expansion in the future to additional 100,000bpsd and a petrochemical plant.

The refinery is designed to produce low sulfur crude oil from ExxonMobil terminal. We are concluding contracts with Process teams from India and China. It is proposed to employ a high yield catalytic cracking process refining, using a blend of crude oil and condensate as feedstock.. The refinery is also designed in such a manner that it can run purely on crude oil.

The refining process units shall comprise Crude Distillation Unit, Stabilizer/Nephtha Spitter, Catalytic Reforming Units, NHI, MIROX, DHT, Virco, etc. Details of these will be found in the Basic Engineering Design to be concluded by our 'soon to be engaged' technical/engineering partners. The report will also contain information on Technology/Licensor selection and the reason for their preference over other processes in the design of the refinery.

The product mix from the refinery process shall consist of LPG, Unleaded Gasoline, Jet fuel/DPK, Diesel and Fuel Oil. All these products have less than 0.03% of sulphur making them the best, and internationally acceptable, quality. The low sulphur content also help to address environmental concerns for the ozone layer in Europe and America.
