Here are some key points about the Bina refinery:

• Operator: Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL).

• Location: Bina, Sagar district, Madhya Pradesh, India.

• Capacity: Initially 6 million metric tonnes per annum (MTPA) and later enhanced to 7.8 MTPA.

• Commissioning: The refinery was commissioned on May 11, 2011.

• Crude Oil Source: The refinery uses a single point mooring system at Vadinar in Gujarat to unload imported crude oil from large crude carriers. The crude is transported through a 935-km long pipeline from Vadinar to Bina.

• Products: The refinery produces products such as LPG, gasoline, diesel, aviation turbine fuel, sulfur, petcoke, and light aromatic naphtha.

• Ownership: Initially a joint venture between BPCL and Oman Oil Company Ltd (now OQ), BPCL acquired the remaining 36.62% stake from OQ SAOC (formerly Oman Oil Company) in March 2021. This acquisition made BORL a wholly-owned subsidiary of BPCL. Subsequently, the company was amalgamated into BPCL.

• Pipeline: Products from the refinery are transported through a 257-km Bina-Kota pipeline, which joins the Mumbai-Manmad-Bijwasan pipeline to reach North Indian markets.
