SECTION II PROJECT BRIEF AND BACKGROUND INFORMATION
2.1 PROJECT BRIEF “Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited” a public sector undertaking company of government
of India, deals in refining petroleum crude oil, distribution and marketing of the same in
domestic and international market.
Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) - LPG plant, Sultanpur, is proposing Up-
gradation of existing plant (OISD-169) to full-fledged OISD-144 Plant inclusive of all facilities.
They are proposing new additional LPG Mounded Storage Vessels of capacity 900 MT (3
nos. X 300MT) with bottling capacity of approx 12000 cylinders/shift. Presently, the plant has
3 nos. of A/G bullets storage vessel 40 MT (2 nos.) and 100 MT (1 nos.) with cumulative
capacity of 180 MT with bottling capacity of approx 5500 cylinders/day.
The proposed up-gradation also includes addition of LPG filling– 24 stations Electronic
Carousel
About 8 nos. of bulk LPG tankers having 16 MT capacity each, are being unloaded in this
plant every shift, while about 12 nos. of filled cylinder trucks (306 cylinders of 14.2 Kg each /
truck) are dispatched per shift.
The proposed augmentation of Mounded Storage Vessels of capacity 900 MT (3 nos. X
300MT) is planned in existing plant area of 8.90 acre (3.60 ha.) No additional land is
required for the proposed up-gradation. The expected capital investment for the proposed
augmentation is 63.0 Crores. The proposed storage up-gradation of LPG bottling plant
categorized as ‘B ‘in 6 (b) (iv) of Gazette Notification dated Sep 14th, 2006, amendment on
01.12.2009 {isolated storage & handling of hazardous chemical, as per threshold planning
quantity indicated in column 3 of schedule 2 & 3 of MSIHC Rules 1989 amended 2000} 04.04.2011,16.07.2013 and 09.09.2013. Thus, the project is “B” category project.
2.1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE PROJECT PROPONENT Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) is second largest PSU companies, with
Fortune Global 500 rank of 225 (2012). BPCL is involved in the refining and retailing of
petroleum products. BPCL’s growth post-nationalization (in 1976) has been phenomenal.
One of the single digit Indian representatives in the Fortune 500 & Forbes 2000 listings,
BPCL is often referred to as an “MNC in PSU garb”. It is considered a pioneer in marketing
initiatives, and employs “Best in Class” practices.
32
Project: BPCL, LPG BOTTLING PLANT, SULTANPUR Section II/ Project Brief and Background Information
During recent past years the demand of LPG has increased many folds in western region
especially in UP region. The demand of LPG cylinders in and around Bhopal for the year
2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10 has been registered as 11.79 TMTPA, 15.65 TMTPA, and
17.96 TMTPA. From the year 2007-08 to 2008-09 the growth of demand has been
registered as 32.8% and from year 2008-09 to 2009-10 the growth of demand has been
registered as 15%. Taking the average growth in demand as 15%, it is evident that demand
of LPG Cylinders in year 2010-11 is expected to be about 20.65 TMTPA and in year 2011-
12 the demand is expected to be about 23.75 TMTPA.
2.2 NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE BPCL is India`s flagship national company. It has laid down distribution centers to cater the
demand of LPG products in the various regions of the country. The existing LPG bottling
plant, (since 1997), requires augmentation in storage capacity for smooth supply and
reduction in waiting time.
There will be an additional central excise, and other applicable taxes through the proposed
storage capacity augmentation. This will contribute to the regional/central revenue and will
be further put in public expenditure. The augmented capacity will help reduce waiting time
and overcome the congestion of traffic, in various regions in the state of U.P.
2.3 DEMAND-SUPPLY GAP The diagram below explains the forces acting upon LPG sector instilling its growth upwardly,
and the inhibitors which deter growth rate of industry. Dynamics in LPG sector is largely
affected by both micro and macroeconomic factors as shown. The growth rates of this
industry are highly affected by economic growth rate of the country as GDP, growth in
population, agricultural and commercial usage, which in turn changes the demand for LPG.
Regulatory framework is expected to be an active enabler for the LPG sector, considering it
is a loss making sector to the government; India also requires huge investments for
infrastructural developments in the LPG sector. A National & International political decision
is an uncontrollable factor which affects the demand and supply scenario of LPG industry.
An optimistic view suggests that the drivers foreplay inhibitors and hence the industry is
expected to grow at a significant rate in the coming decade.

Drivers and Inhibitors of LPG
Growth Growth
Drivers Inhibitors
There is a fair degree of correlation between the growth in Oil & Gas products and the
growth in the population and overall economic activities. Thus demand will be in line with
population and economic growth.

Several factors such as household income, location, and availability and prices of
alternatives, appear to affect the choice of or dependence on LPG.
There is a large gap between the demand and the supply LPG in U.P.. The proposed project
aims to fill the demand – supply gap effectively (by reducing the waiting time) through the
required storage. The associated need of the proposed augmentation in storage capacity is
required for smooth supply.

2.4 IMPORTS VS INDIGENOUS PRODUCTION.
The LPG gas is procured from G.A.I.L. Auriya (U.P.), B.P.C.L. Bina refinery, Bhopal (M.P.),
Loni (Gaziabad), Piyala (Faridabad) Haryana. The proposed project storage capacity
augmentation and does not involves imports.
LPG is used worldwide for cooking and heating, especially in areas without connection to
piped natural gas. LPG is a clean fuel for households and is associated with the need for
cylinder refills. The proposed up-gradation project aims to fulfill, time and place utility with
effective cylinder management as LPG has to be stored under pressure, with metal
cylinders.
2.5 EXPORT POSSIBILITY
There is no export possibility by the proposed capacity augmentation, hence not applicable.
2.6 DOMESTIC / EXPORT MARKETS.
The existing bottling unit aims to cater LPG distribution to 10 districts including Amethi viz:
Sultanpur, Pratapgarh, Faizabad, Gonda, Ambedkar nagar, Basti, Rai Barelly, Balrampur
and Siddhartha nagar. The proposed storage up-gradation is for domestic market.

Source: *Basic Statistics on Indian Petroleum & Natural Gas, 2009-10, Ministry of petroleum & Natural gas, GOI.
As evident from the table above, BPCL has a relatively lesser number of LPG Distributors, in
Uttar Pradesh. The proposed storage augmentation will fulfill the regional demand of 10
districts nearby Amethi, and no exports markets will be catered through it.
2.7 EMPLOYMENT GENERATION (DIRECT AND INDIRECT) DUE TO THE PROJECT Existing total employment is approx. 59 people including security personals (shift wise). No
additional man power will be employed on payroll. However a temporary influx of related skill
manpower (25 skilled workers) will find job-work opportunity for erection and fabrication of
the proposed storage vessel in the up-gradation project.

Project: BPCL, LPG BOTTLING PLANT, SULTANPUR
Section III/ Project Description
The operations start with the receipt of bulk LPG, bulk LPG is being received through tank
lorries in the plant. The above lorries are decanted in T/L bay by differential Pressure
method. The product is transferred from the tank lorry to the storage vessels through
pipelines.
From the storage vessels the product is pumped to the filling machines by using centrifugal
pumps.
The empty cylinders from the market are received at the unloading finger. These cylinders
are checked as per the visual inspection format for dent, genuineness burnt marks,
mechanical damages by the company staff. Only sound empty cylinders are sent to the
carousal & filling machine for filling.

38
Project: BPCL, LPG BOTTLING PLANT, SULTANPUR
Section III/ Project Description
The cylinder filled is checked for correctness of weight on the check scale, to compact valve
tester for checking of leakage from valve & 'O' Ring. After completing the above checking,
the cylinder is capped by safety cap & then goes to test water bath for body/bung leak
checks. The leaky cylinders are rejected after the test bath and the same goes to evacuation
unit for decantation of the product from the cylinder. After evacuating the product from the
cylinder, the above cylinder goes to cold flaring unit for degassing & then the cold repair is
done. Body leak cylinders are rejected for scrapping after de-gassing.
Similarly the cylinders having variation in weight of the gas filled are also taken out to
correction unit & the weight is adjusted by filling the product or taking out the product as per
the requirements.
All sound cylinders after Test Bath are sealed with PVC seal which is sealed through hot Air
Sealing Unit. These cylinders are then loaded to the trucks for dispatching to the markets. A
random check is also done before the dispatch.

water is utilized for cleaning and washing of cylinders to the tune of 7 KLD, while 3 KLD
water is required for domestic purposes. The project proposal is only for installation of 01
nos. of Bullets to augment the storage capacity. The water consumption due to the proposed
augment will not increase because the total bottling capacity will remain intact after
augmentation.
For Up-gradation the unit is proposing 2*1425 KL (Above ground M.S. fire water Tank) in
compliance of OISD guidelines for emergency purpose. The water of the tanks is replaced
on half yearly basis.

5.1 PLANNING CONCEPT (type of Industries, facilities transportation etc.) TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING/ DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY CLASSIFICATION
The project is LPG storage and bottling unit of capacity to the tune of 180 MT. the unit has
3no. of A/G bullets storage vessel 40 MT (2 nos.) & 100 (1 nos.) with cumulative capacity of
180 MT with bottling capacity of approx 5500 cylinders/day. Now, after Up-Gradation the
total LPG storage capacity of the plant will be 900 MT with bottling capacity of approx 12000
cylinders/shift.
The capital investment required for the proposed augmentation is 63 crores.
5.2 POPULATION PROJECTION The proposed capacity augmentation in the LPG bottling plant shall not require additional
permanent manpower. Hence, there will be no change in the population projection of the
nearest and farther most villages due to the proposed expansion unit. A temporary influx of
25 local workers for erection and fabrication will be there in the plant premises.

Financial and social benefits with special emphasis on the benefit to the local people including tribal population, if any, in the area.
BPCL has been engaged with various CSR programmes for more than two decades.
Ujjwala Suraksha Mitra
Since the inception of PMUY over 1.5 Crore households have been given LPG connection in relation to this scheme. This is a rapid growth of consumer base in a short interval of time. We have been providing LPG connections to those households who have never used or in some cases seen any LPG equipment. Majority of the households covered under this scheme has been cooking on firewood, coal and dung for generations and even after getting a LPG connection they preferred using the equipment in a traditional manner that is placing the gas stove on the ground. This was a major concern for us at BPCL, since we have always believed in “Safety First, Safety Must”. So BPCL decided that these households and people connected to them had to be educated on safety procedures and practices in regards to LPG and LPG equipment. But was a barrier; effectivity of the education programs. The ongoing programs related to safety did not have the desired effect on people living in rural areas because these are the regions where media reach and exposure is poor, there are language, culture and lifestyle differences. To connect with them, to make them understand the importance of safety required something they could relate to and someone they understood and trust. BPCL contemplated and came up with the concept of ‘Ujjwala Suraksha Mitra’.
Brief Introduction to Program
To make communication more effective, camps were organized in villages by team of women termed as ‘Ujjwala Suraksha Mitra’ who went to various villages, identified by the respective territories and adhere to the following process:
a) The team of Ujjwala Suraksha Mitra conducted verbal/audio and pictorialcommunication regarding LPG safety to the women of different households and door-to-door propagation of training.
b) The team demonstrated and educated them about safe handling of LPG and LPGequipment.
c) The team took feedback from the participants.
The engagement of women as Ujjwala Suraksha Mitra was a well thought out process, due to conservative mindset in villages it is easier for women at households to connect and interact with other women and allow an easy access to their kitchens. Initially for trail basis women from district Raebareli were selected and trained in LPG safety by BPCL officials.
The Selection Procedure
The selection procedure sort three major aspects in the candidate; first was Minimum qualification of 10th standard (High School). Second was passion and willingness of the
61
Project: BPCL, LPG BOTTLING PLANT, SULTANPUR Section IX/ Analysis of Proposal
candidate for social work in villages. Third, able to communicate with the customers in their local languages.
Training Process
What are the prominent causes of LPG-related accidents at households? No knowledge of product, poor maintenance, equipment fault, poor handling etc. Training sessions for Ujjwala Suraksha Mitra extensively addressed these issues, various scenarios, remedy sessions and hands-on training to give them insight of LPG safety procedures and practices. Sessions on LPG properties, equipment, safety precautions, LPG Emergency Tips and process of release of connection under Ujjwala were carried out by BPCL Sales and HSSE officers.
The outreach
Finally the program was given its inception on 08th August, 2016. Ujjwala Suraksha Mitras
went to villages to not just conduct safety clinics and camps but to reach the customers
door-to-door. Giving the customer an elaborate hands-on training and information was
boosted by the door-to-door campaign, as the information was not just an overview but was
personalized according to the customer, to help them understand better. Information about
setup of LPG equipment at customer premises, use of gas stoves, DPR (Direct Pressure
Regulator), other LPG equipment and information about LPG Emergency Number – 1906
was elaborated in the door-to-door outreach programs.
After the success at Raebareli this program was replicated for more districts (which were
media-grey areas and dominated by rural regions) which are, Faizabad, Ambedkar Nagar,
Sultanpur, Gonda, Balrampur and few other districts. The success was a result of proper
thought-out planning and coordination. Daily visit planning, regular monitoring and feedback
from the customer helped along the way to build a solid ground for this program.
Subsequently there were inspections of PMUY beneficiaries carried out by BPCL officials
and it was found that work and training by Ujjwala Suraksha Mitra was well remembered by
women of the villages where this program was conducted. Women also retained good
amount of knowledge provided to them on LPG Safety. BPCL received an extravagant
positive response from the customers and saw a significant drop in LPG related accidents.
What people most appreciated was ease in understanding the basics of LPG safety and nil
language barrier. Till now Ujjwala Suraksha Mitra have covered 670 villages in Raebareli,
Amethi, Faizabad, Balrampur and Gonda districts of Uttar Pradesh. They have visited 27000
households and spread the LPG Safety message to approximately 1.3 Lakh villagers. BPCL
aims to enlighten more and more people about LPG Safety through the endeavor of Ujjwala
Suraksha Mitra.
