Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. (IOCL), India's largest oil refiner, has selected Univation Technologies' UNIPOL™ PE Process Technology for a new world-scale polyethylene (PE) production line at its Paradip Petrochemical Complex in Odisha, India.

This significant expansion will add a nameplate production capacity of 650,000 tons per annum of PE, significantly boosting IOCL's ability to meet the growing demand for polyethylene in the Indian market. The new line will have the flexibility to produce both linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), covering a wide range of applications.

IOCL has chosen a combination of Univation's advanced catalysts to achieve this versatility, including:

    UCAT™ J Unimodal HDPE/LLDPE Technology
    PRODIGY™ Bimodal HDPE Technology
    ACCLAIM™ Unimodal HDPE Technology

This strategic selection allows IOCL to cater to both unimodal and bimodal PE market segments, ensuring they can meet stringent performance standards for critical applications like flexible and rigid packaging, high-pressure pipes, and durable goods.

Recognizing the growing importance of metallocene polyethylene in India, IOCL will also utilize Univation's XCAT™ Metallocene Catalysts. This will enable them to produce advanced metallocene PE grades for high-end applications such as robust shipping packaging, high-performance films for food preservation, and sustainable agricultural films.

To ensure optimal operation and efficiency, IOCL will implement Univation's PREMIER™ APC+ 3.0 Advanced Process Control Platform. This platform is designed to enhance process control, optimize raw material yields, and 1 maintain consistent product quality across the entire PE resin grade portfolio.

This project represents a major step in expanding India's petrochemical production capacity and boosting economic development in the region.

The naphtha cracker unit will be located at IOCL's existing refinery complex in Paradip. This strategic location offers synergies with the existing infrastructure and feedstock supply. The project is expected to create numerous jobs during construction and operation, contributing to local employment and economic growth. The investment proposals is part of Paradip refinery capacity expansion from 15 million tonne per annum (MTPA) to 25 MTPA.

This investment underscores IOCL's commitment to meeting the growing demand for petrochemicals in India. The naphtha cracker will produce key building blocks for various downstream products, serving industries ranging from plastics and packaging to textiles and automotive. This project will reduce India's reliance on imports for these crucial materials.
