Protecting today for tomorrow

BPCL Mumbai Refinery has taken relentless efforts towards energy conservation on a sustained basis to result in significant saving of energy and natural resources for years to come

Green initiatives

Development of Butterfly & Vertical garden

BPCL MR developed this butterfly garden to serve as "Biodiversity Island" for native and rare plants, birds, insects, bees and butterflies. Around 2500 tree saplings of different species have been planted in butterfly garden. Each plant of this garden has been carefully selected to play the role of either host or nectar species in order to attract more butterflies and provide a supportive habitat for them to flourish. Butterflies play a vital role in the food chain and their presence is a sign of healthy ecosystem and chemical free environment.

Implementation of Encon Schemes

The various Encon schemes, renewable energy projects and commissioning of heat integrated Crude Distillation Unit-4 (CDU-4) & Tail Gas Treatment Unit (TGTU) units in 2015 & 2017 respectively has further facilitated the reduction of CO2 & SO2 emissions.

Trend of CO2 & SO2 emissions over past years is as follows:

4000+ trees planted under Tree Plantation Program

The tree plantation drive is conducted every year on "World Environment Day" in and around Mumbai

Year Tree Plantation Quantity
2012-13 9000
2013-14 3200
2014-15 10000
2015-16 1202
2016-17 10055
2017-18 5230
2018-19 1350

Energy Champion Scheme

This initiative was established in the year 2017-18 so as to establish an 'Ownership' approach to have seamless implementation strategy right from 'conception to completion.'

For each process unit, multi-functional team is assigned, Energy Champion being the leader of the team has to achieve desired objective. As per the scheme, an energy champion/ support person from the same plant, plant technologist and an energy anchor from E&E are nominated. 6 KPIs were defined for 9 competing units of the refinery and fortnightly meeting being conducted at plant level that lead to generation of new energy savings ideas from team as a whole.

ED's award is given to the best performing unit in energy conservation every year.

Innovative solutions to save energy 2018 - 19

Provision of Electrical Heat Tracing

As an energy conservation measure, BPCL-MR has installed and commissioned electrical heat tracing system for VG-10 & VG-40 bitumen pipelines of 1600 meters length from BBU plant to TDU gantry leading to MP steam savings of MP steam 15MT/D & net savings of Rs. 1.23 Cr/Yr.

Condensate recovery in LOBS:

Implementation of LOBS Condensate Recovery System (CRS). Realized savings of 87.9 T/D (Condensate + flash steam)

Labels Unit Value
Total Condensate Recovered from Pumps TPD 80
Total LLP Flash Steam Recovered TPD 6.9
Total LP Flash Steam Recovered TPD 1
Total Recovery (Condensate + Flash Steam) TPD 87.9
