INTRODUCTION

Project Proponent

Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (hereinafter referred to as "HPCL") is a„Navaratna


PSU and a Forbes 2000 and Global Fortune 500 company.

HPCL has two Refineries located in Mumbai (West Coast) and Visakhapatnam (East Coast)
with capacities of 6.5 MMTPA & 8.3 MMTPA respectively, churning out a wide range of
petroleum products, viz. LPG, MS, SKO, ATF, HSD, Bitumen etc. and various grades of
lubricants, specialties and greases as per BIS standard.
It is proposed to install and commission a Transmix Reclamation Unit at Jaipur terminal.

Nature of Project

In multi-product pipeline transportation, as different products move together, an interface is


generated between two abutting products and this interface is absorbed in the base product as
per Industrial Quality Control Manual Guidelines. The quantity of interface which cannot be
absorbed is required to be re-transported to the refinery for reprocessing of the same.

As a step towards optimization of the existing transportation model with efficient interface
management and to reduce the energy consumption involved in the re-transportation of the
interface generated, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation limited ( HPCL) intends to install a
Transmix reclamation unit at Jaipur terminal.

The project activities fall under item no. 6 (a): “Oil & gas transportation pipe line (crude and
refinery/ petrochemical products), passing through national parks /sanctuaries/coral reefs
/ecologically sensitive zone including LNG Terminal.” under category “A” as per the EIA
Notification 2006 and its amendments.
SITE INFORMATION

underground storage Tank with capacity 3 x 150 KL at village Bagru Kalan, District Jaipur,

distance of 36.0 km (W). The total plot area for the terminal is approximately ~15 Hectares
(37.06 Acres).

Site Alternates
