RIL plans shut down of LCOHC and VGOHT refinery at Jamnagar

20 Sep 2011 Evaluate

Reliance Industries (RIL) plans to take maintenance and inspection (M&I) shutdown of light cycle oil hydrocracker (LCOHC) and vacuum gas oil hydrotreating unit (VGOHT) of SEZ refinery at Jamnagar refinery complex from 19th and 23rd September 2011 respectively. These maintenance shutdowns will be for a period of approximately 4 weeks. Further, the routine shutdown of these units is being planned for the first time since commissioning.

Both the refineries at Jamnagar complex are planned to operate at maximum crude processing capacity i.e. 1.3 million barrels per day during this period. All other major processing units at the complex are also planned to operate at normal capacity.

Recently, the company’s gas output had dropped to 44 million cubic meters a day, down 10% from the April-June quarter because of persisting technical issues. This had choked supplies to several customers and forced consumers to shift to imported liquefied natural gas (LNG), which costs three times as much Reliance's gas.
