EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) is a fortune 500 oil refining, exploration
and marketing PSU with Navratna status. BPCL has multiple refinery units in Mumbai,
Kochi & Numaligarh. The latest addition is Bina Refinery Bharat Oman Refinery
Limited (BORL) which is promoted by a Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited
(BPCL) and Oman Oil Company Limited (OOCL) has set up refinery with capacity &
it is a 6 MMTPA grass root refinery at Bina, Madhya Pradesh, along with crude supply
system consisting of a Single Point Mooring system (SPM), Crude Oil Storage
Terminal (COT) at Vadinar, District – Jamnagar, Gujrat and 935 Km long cross country
crude pipeline from Vadinar to Bina. BPCL has also many LPG Plants, POL Depots,
Installations & TOPs spread across the country for further distribution of petroleum
products to consumers.
BPCL now proposes to increase storage capacity of the existing LPG Bottling Plants
located at Rajbandh Choti, in the state of West Bengal.for meeting the increasing
demand of L.P.G. cylinders in the neighboring areas.
With the above in view, BPCL proposes to install two mounded bullets and add 2 nos
of bays in the TLD gantry in the existing LPG Bottling Plants located at Rajbandh
Choti, in the state of West Bengal.
BPCL proposes for installation of mounded bullet keeping the safety aspect in mind.
Cylindrical pressures vessels installed on compact sand bed and covered with sand
mound in a pyramid shape. The mounded storage of LPG has proved to be safer
compared to above ground storage vessels since it provides intrinsically passive and
safe environment and eliminates the possibility of Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapour
Explosion (BLEVE). The cover of the mound protects the vessel from fire engulfment,
radiation from a fire in close proximity and acts of sabotage or vandalism.

CLEARANCE FOR PROPOSED STORAGE CAPACITY
EXPANSION OF BPCL DURGAPUR LPG BOTTLING PLANT
AT RAJBANDH CHOTI, BURDWAN, WEST BENGAL

Land Requirement
The total land area available in Durgapur LPG Plant is around 25 acres. The total land is
under possession of BPCL. 2 nos of Additional Bullets of 300 MT capacity each, and
addition 2 nos of bays in the gantry will be installed in the vacant space within the
existing premises; hence no additional land is required.

The maximum water consumption during operation of the existing plant is 3m3/day. No
additional water will be required for the proposed expansion.
Water requirement for the existing Plant is met through bore wells which was
commissioned during 2007-08 at the time of installation of the plant. Central ground
water authority vide it circular dated 26.10.2012 had exempted the industries drawing
less than 100m3/day from obtaining permission.
Further, 2.4 kld out of 3 kld required for washing, domestic etc will be reused for green
