Þ First lot of crude for Paradip Renery received through SPM and stored in 7 numbers of crude
storage tank
Propylene Recovery Unit of Paradip Þ Board approved the
Þ First phase commissioned of 15 MMTPA state-of-the-art Paradip Renery with crude Renery commissioned. With this installation of 357-KTA
processing in Atmospheric & Vacuum Unit (AVU) on April 26. Nemba crude taken commissioning, PDR became Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG)
into IOCL's largest crude distillation unit of 15 MMTPA capacity
capable to supply Propylene to the Plant at Paradip Renery
Þ Commissioning of Amine/ Sour Water stripper units market as well to the upcoming
Þ The rst Propylene Truck
Þ Paradip Renery achieved one more milestone by successfully commissioning its Poly Propylene Unit at the Tanker agged off at Paradip
Hydrogen Generation Unit (HGU). The unit is designed to produce 8.75 T/hr of Petrochemical Complex of PDR Renery
Hydrogen with 99.9 vol % purity
Þ First Major Secondary Processing Unit of Paradip Renery - the Delayed Coker Unit (DCU)
commissioned. DCU of 4.1 MMTPA capacity has the world's largest coke drum
Þ The commissioning of Diesel Hydrotreater (DHDT), Paradip Renery achieved another milestone in
the journey towards commissioning of the Renery. DHDT Unit is designed to process 5.2 MMTPA (= 2019
15,000 tonnes/day) of blended Gas Oil to produce ultra-low sulphur nished diesel having 10 ppmw
sulphur (max) Þ The bulk propylene cargo loaded vessel MT Hong YU set on its voyage on the historical maritime
day of India. With this cargo, IndianOil exported Bulk Propylene for the rst time
