Refining Capacity
Indian refining industry has done exceedingly well in establishing itself as a major player globally. India is emerging as a refinery hub and refining capacity exceeds the demand. The last decade has seen a tremendous growth in the refining sector. The country’s refining capacity has increased from a modest 62 Million Metric Tonnes Per Annum (MMTPA) in 1998 to 215.066 MMTPA at present, comprising of 22 refineries - 17 under Public Sector, 3 under private sector and 2 in Joint Venture (JV). During 2011-12, two new JV refineries of 6 MMTPA and 15 MMTPA were commissioned in Bina, Madhya Pradesh and Bathinda, Punjab. These refineries would augment the availability of BS IV compliant fuels in Central and Northern parts of the country.
