Gujarat Claims The Title Of India’s Petro Capital?

Important Days

Gujarat has emerged as the nation’s petrochemical powerhouse, boasting the world’s largest grassroots oil refinery and a state-of-the-art petrochemical complex. The dynamic growth of the petrochemical sector in Gujarat is exemplified by the monumental achievements of Reliance Industries Ltd’s (RIL) Jamnagar refinery and the ONGC Petro additions Limited (OPaL) petrochemical complex in Dahej.


      RIL’s Jamnagar refinery stands as a testament to Gujarat’s prowess in the petrochemical industry.

      Recognized as the largest and most complex single-site refinery globally, the Jamnagar facility has an impressive crude processing capacity of 1.4 million barrels per day (MMBPD).

      Housing some of the world’s largest units, including the fluidized catalytic cracker, coker, alkylation, paraxylene, polypropylene, refinery off-gas cracker, and petcoke gasification plants, Jamnagar has set a new benchmark for refinery infrastructure.
