Of total Rs 900 crore, the company will spend Rs 600 crore on 229 km LPG pipeline which will help in minimising the road transportation of gas and connect the company’s bottling plants in Palakkad and Coimbatore thereby improving the distribution network, while Rs 300 crore will be invested at its Irumpanam installation unit near the Kochi Refinery. The storage capacity at the facility is expected to increase to 8 million tonnes with the completion of the Integrated Refinery Expansion Project (IREP)

The funds for both these projects will be in addition to the Rs 14,225 crore investments set apart by the company for IREP, which envisaged increasing the refining capacity from the present 9.5 MMTPA to 15.5 MMTPA
