Challenges

Project

Level difference between the units and tank farm is to the tune of 64 meters.  The variation in unit levels is 12 meters. Natural Level variations were utilised to get the benefit of process hydraulics. Natural terrain was maintained to the extent possible to reduce the site grading work.

Process
  • Water source, River Betwa is located 8 KM from site.  Weir was built across the river to create pondage of water and intake well with pumps  was constructed mid-stream of the river.
  • 935 Km long cross country pipeline to transport crude from Gujarat to MP
  • Petcoke based captive co-generation power plant built first time in an Indian Refinery to utilise Petcoke produced in DCU
  • Integrated Hydrocracker and DHDT unit built for first time in India
  • Foundation field bus technology used across the Refinery.
  • Designed as a Zero effluent Refinery.
