Second largest single-site refinery

Efficient, Reliable & Safe,
We Refine the Next
In India for India

India has over 256 MMTPA of refining capacity making it the 2nd largest in Asia. A country of India’s size and aspirations requires a stable and affordable energy system to fuel its ever-increasing and diverse needs, empowering progress on multiple fronts. We contribute ~8% of India’s refining output and aim to actively participate in ensuring India’s energy security. Inside the Gulf of Kutch, Vadinar, a small coastal town located in Devbhoomi Dwarka district is home to one of the most complex refineries in the world, the cornerstone of existence for Nayara Energy. Nayara Energy’s Vadinar refinery started commercial production in May 2008 and is India’s second-largest single- site refinery, with a capacity of 20 MMTPA. It’s capable of handling a diverse range of crude - from sweet to sour and light to ultra-heavy., boasting a complexity index of 12.17.

Strategic Location

Located on the West Coast of India in Vadinar, it’s proximity to the Middle East crude hub and the Suez Canal ensures optimal sourcing and export logistics. The refinery is positioned along a major maritime route, facilitating seamless access to domestic and international markets across the Middle East, Africa and Southeast Asia.

Infrastructure & Operations

• Land Holding: 2,392 Ha with 410 Ha dedicated to green belt development.

Product Portfolio

Vadinar Refinery is capable of processing some of the toughest crudes and yet produces high quality Euro IV and Euro VI grade products that meet international standards and Euro VI equivalent Bharat Stage (BS VI) compliant fuels for the domestic market. This brings us closer to the global emission standards.

It produces a wide range of petroleum and petrochemical products:

• LPG, Naphtha, MS, MTO, ULSD, HSD, VGO, Sulphur, Petcoke, and Polypropylene.
• Product mix is optimized for light and middle distillates, contributing to high Gross Refining Margins (GRM).
• Ethanol-blended MS (EBMS) introduced ahead of schedule, with 20% blending initiated in Feb 2025.

We are committed to provide safe operations and workplaces, to protect the health and safety of its employees and contractors, as well as to mitigate the environmental impact of our operations
Our refinery operates an integrated health, safety, environment and quality (HSEQ) management system.
