2. INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT

2.1 Identification of the Project and Project Proponent

M/s Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL), a Government of India Undertaking, is

engaged in Refining, Storage and Marketing of Petroleum Products. Hindustan Petroleum

Corporation Limited (HPCL) is a leading government owned PSU in India. Due to its strong

presence in the market for long time, it has acquired a sizeable share in the Indian market. The

company has already setup many bottling plants all over India. The Manglia LPG Bottling Plant

of M/s Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (HPCL) was commissioned in the year 2004 and

the LPG Bottling Plant is situated in Manglia, the present setup has a bottling facility spread

over area of 34 acres. The nearest villages are Rahukhed and Lasudiya Parmar situated

approximately 0.40 KM and 1.30 KM at south-West and north-East respectively. Some industry

is at south-West side of the plant. Agriculture land at North, East and South side of the plant.

Agra-Bombay NH-3 Highway at West of the plant. Bottling plant is engaged in receiving bulk

tankers from Gail Vijaypur, Aegis Pipavav, ONGC Hazira, IOC Koyali, BPC Bina, Essar Vadinar,

RIL Jamnagar, Gail Gandhar etc. The bulk tankers are unloaded into three storage vessels of

total 900 MT (3x300 bullets) capacities. Plant is having Tank truck decantation unit with six bays

each having unloading arms. HPCL LPG Bottling Plant Manglia supplies packed LPG domestic

& non domestic filled cylinders in Twenty two revenue district of Madhya Pradesh.

2.2 Brief Description of nature of the Project

The proposed LPG storage capacity enhancement of LPG bottling plant from 900 MT to 2400

MT by constructing new 3 X 500 MT Mounded Storage Vessels within existing plant premises.

LPG will be coming to the Plant by road in trucks from Gail Vijaypur, Aegis Pipavav, ONGC

Hazira, IOC Koyali, BPC Bina, Essar Vadinar, RIL Jamnagar, Gail Gandhar etc. This is being

stored in bullets then filled in various capacities of the cylinders within the plant and sold

(dispatched) to the distributors spread in 22 districts of Madhya Pradesh.

2.3 Need for the Project and its importance

Based upon LPG consumption scenario, need is felt to enhance the LPG storage capacity at

Manglia LPG Bottling plant. To achieve the same, HPCL LPG Bottling Plant proposes to install

three new mounded storage vessels of capacity 500 MT each. This will improve the storage

capacity of LPG at existing plant with enhanced cover from 2.5 days to 6 days and distribution

network. Moreover Mounded Storage Vessel is the safest and proven storage in vogue.

2.4 LPG Import

At HPCL LPG Bottling Plant Manglia, LPG is being received from Gail Vijaypur, Aegis Pipavav,

ONGC Hazira, IOC Koyali, BPC Bina, Essar Vadinar, RIL Jamnagar, Gail Gandhar etc through

tanker trucks.

2.5 Cylinder Supply

HPCL LPG Bottling Plant Manglia supplies packed LPG domestic & non domestic filled

cylinders in twenty two district of Madhya Pradesh.

2.6 Employment Generation due to the Project

The proposed expansion project will provide indirect employment to about 20-25 persons during

the construction phase and also in transportation during construction phase.

3.3 Process Details

At Plant LPG is received through Truck Tankers of generally 18 MT capacity from LPG is being

received from Gail Vijaypur, Aegis Pipavav, ONGC Hazira, IOC Koyali, BPC Bina, Essar Vadinar,

RIL Jamnagar, Gail Gandhar etc. There is 6 bay gantry for unloading of LPG. Further it is stored

in above ground bullets 3 X 300 MT. Maximum existing inventory of LPG at the plant is 900 MT.

Plant operates in two shifts. LPG from bullets is pumped with the help of LPG pumps to electronic

carousel for cylinder filling operation. Domestic and Commercial cylinders of sizes 5 Kg, 14.2 kg,

19 kg, 35 kg 47.5 kg are filled. HPCL LPG Bottling Plant supplies packed LPG domestic & non

domestic filled cylinders to the twenty two revenue district of Madhya Pradesh. Defective cylinders

are segregated for correction before dispatch to the market. All standard operating procedures

are followed as per OISD and best engineering practices.
