Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (BPCL) has announced plans to establish a greenfield refinery and petrochemical complex at Ramayapatnam in Andhra Pradesh. 

The project, which represents one of BPCL’s largest planned investments, will cater to the rising demand for petroleum and chemical products in southern India.

According to officials, the refinery will be designed for high efficiency, integrating modern environmental and energy-saving technologies. 

The site at Ramayapatnam, strategically located near a deep-water port, offers logistical advantages for both import of crude and export of finished products. 

The project is expected to attract substantial ancillary investments and create thousands of direct and indirect jobs, bolstering Andhra Pradesh’s industrial ecosystem.
