New Delhi/India – In a landmark development, Indian Oil Corporation (Indianoil) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Government of Odisha to set up a world-class Petrochemical Complex at Paradip. The MOU was exchanged in the presence of Hardeep Singh Puri, Hon’ble Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas; Dharmendra Pradhan, Hon’ble Minister of Education; Mohan Charan Majhi, Hon’ble Chief Minister, Odisha; and other senior dignitaries.

With an investment of 61,077 crore rupees (7.1 billion dollars), this marks Indianoil’s largest-ever investment at a single location and a transformative step in India's petrochemical and industrial growth. The upcoming complex will house a dual-feed cracker and associated downstream units for the production of wide range of petrochemicals including Phenol, Polypropylene (PP), Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA), High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Phenol, and Butadiene. These products will serve as key raw materials for specialty chemical sectors like pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, coatings, and adhesives, significantly reducing import dependency and supporting the Aatmanirbhar Bharat and Make in India missions.
