ONGC Petro additions Limited (OPaL), a
multibillion joint venture company was incorporated in 2006. OPaL is
promoted by Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) and co-promoted by
GAIL and GSPC.
OPaL has set up a grass root mega Petrochemical complex at Dahej,
Gujarat in PCPIR/SEZ (Petroleum, Chemicals and Petrochemicals Investment
Region/Special Economic Zone). The complex's main Dual Feed Cracker
Unit has the capacity to produce 1100 KTPA Ethylene, 400 KTPA Propylene
and the Associated Units consists of Pyrolysis Gasoline Hydrogenation
Unit, Butadiene Extraction Unit and Benzene Extraction Unit. The Polymer
plants of OPaL has 2X360 KTPA of LLDPE/HDPE Swing unit, 1X340 KTPA of
Dedicated HDPE and 1x340 KTPA of PP. The project commenced its
production after the inauguration by Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri
Narendra Modi in March 2017.
The mega petrochemical complex is tactically located in the port-city of
Dahej, Gujarat giving it a competitive edge of connectivity to domestic
as well as overseas market. Equipped with adequate indigenous feedstock
supplies, world-class technologies, talented human resources, and above
all, easy access to the growing domestic & international market,
OPaL is powering ahead in the fast-evolving petrochemical landscape.
The demand for polymers in India is huge and is expected to further rise
with the growth in GDP. India will continue to be in deficit of
Polyethylene in the foreseeable future. Moreover, this also works as a
perfect downstream integration for ONGC - the key promoter who supply
the required feedstock Naphtha from its Hazira, Uran and Dahej
facilities, which is essential to run the plant in full capacity.
Apart from the home turf, being in SEZ, OPaL markets substantial part of
its produce in the international market and has spread its polymer
footprint across the globe with its world-class products and services.
To achieve this, OPaL makes effective use of technologies, while being
sensitive towards the environment at all times. Using the
state-of-art technologies from the finest and most renowned companies,
OPaL facility is considered to be among the best in the world
Driven by innovation, OPaL intend to build a world class petrochemical
enterprise unlocking potential of its people and offer differentiated
products and services.
