BPCL

In a landmark development for India’s energy infrastructure, the Government of Andhra Pradesh has approved the allotment of 6,000 acres of land to Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd (BPCL) for setting up a greenfield refinery and petrochemical complex near Ramayapatnam Port in Nellore district. The ambitious project, estimated at ₹96,862 crore, will have a refining capacity of 9–12 million metric tonnes per annum (MMTPA). The state has also extended significant fiscal incentives, including a capital reimbursement of up to 75% over two decades.

Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) and Oil India Limited (OIL) have joined forces to establish a city gas distribution (CGD) network in Arunachal Pradesh, a move aimed at expanding access to cleaner fuels in one of India’s most geographically challenging states. The partnership underscores the growing emphasis on energy inclusion in the Northeast, where logistical hurdles and limited infrastructure have historically slowed down natural gas adoption.
