Take an exclusive tour of Indian Oil's Panipat Refinery & Petrochemicals Complex

IRPC 2013 is currently the only major international refining and petrochemical event that will be held in India during 2013. Attendees will have the opportunity to take part in a tour of Indian Oil's Panipat Refinery & Petrochemicals Complex, located 23 kilometers from Panipat and approximately 100 kilometers from New Delhi. Since its original construction, the Panipat refinery has undergone numerous upgrades and unit additions, to arrive at its current capacity of 15 MMtpy.

India is poised for major growth in 2013 and years to come. Indian refining capacity is on the rise and will continue to increase within the next five years. Currently, India's refining sector is the global leader in downstream construction projects, representing 10 percent of the total active refining projects across the globe. India is home to 20 major refineries in operation with a total capacity of 194 million tons per year (MMtpy). Based on current proposed projects, India is slated to add 1.3 MMbpd of refining capacity through 2017. With major construction projects already underway, India is forecast to overtake South Korea as Asia's largest refined product exporter and one of the world's major global producers of petroleum products.

We invite you to witness first-hand the growth and applications of technology taking place in India.
