HPCL to commission Rajasthan refinery ahead of Ratnagiri facility

摘要

HINDUSTAN Petroleum Corporation has decided to put Rajasthan ahead of Maharashtra in its refinery commissioning dates. The original plan was to get in place a nine million tonne facility in Ratnagiri (called the Maharashtra Refinery) by 2016 whose capacity would be doubled in due course of time. HPCL now believes it makes more sense to fast-track the more recently planned Rajasthan refinery where ONGC (Oil and Natural Gas Corporation) is its ally.
