HPCL may setup Oil refinery in Barmer

06 Jun 2012 Evaluate

Hindustan Petroleum Corporation (HPCL) is keen to establish 9 million tonne unit at Barmer district in Rajasthan post ONGC deterring from building a refinery in Rajasthan.  Earlier in 2005, ONGC, which owns 30 percent interest in the Barmer oilfields of Cairn India, had committed to building the refinery but later started soft- peddling the project.

HPCL has now entered the fray and has proposed to take 51 percent stake in the project. The company already owns a refinery at Mumbai and Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh and is equal partner in the just commissioned Bhatinda refinery in Punjab.

HPCL’s net profit for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2012 jumped over four fold to Rs 4630.99 crore as compared to Rs 1122.66 crore for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. The total income has increased by 31.66% to Rs 52772.56 crore for the quarter under review from Rs 40083.29 crore for the corresponding quarter of the previous year.
