The initial supply agreement is for a quantity of 15,000 metric tonnes over the course of the project and is likely to be extended to other projects in and around the state.

Essar Oil will provide supplies for the Kandla - Mundra Road Project (KMRP) and the Samakhaiyali - Gandhidham Road Project (SGRP), both in the state of Gujarat from its state-of-the-art refinery in Vadinar. This cooperation will soon be extended to projects like the Kishangarh - Udaipur - Ahmedabad Road Project, among others.
