Driving Engineering Excellence Globally

The global energy landscape is undergoing a paradigm shift, with countries worldwide adapting their energy policies to meet modern demands and strengthen their renewable energy portfolios. India stands out as a leader, having recently implemented significant measures such as the biofuel policy, initiatives promoting energy conservation and efficiency, and the rollout of a green hydrogen policy. These steps reflect India’s strong commitment to achieving its Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) targets.

EIL has always been aligning its strategy with the needs of the changing global energy sector. In its long journey of six decades, EIL has implemented several mega energy projects in India and overseas. PMC & OBE services for Vizag Refinery Modernisation Project (VRMP) of HPCL, PMC & OBE services for HPCL Rajasthan Refinery project (HRRL) having the highest petrochemical intensity of around 25 per cent, EPCM services for the capacity expansion project of IOCL-Panipat and EPCM services for Cauvery Basin Refinery (CBR) project for CPCL with the combined capital outlay of around $20 billion are some of the recent testimonies of EIL’s mega project implementation in the Indian market.

In the petrochemical sector, EIL is also providing EPCM services for implementing the first of its kind Propane Dehydrogenation- Polypropylene (PDH-PP) unit in India for GAIL. These multibillion-dollar projects clearly demonstrate EIL’s strong domestic presence in the oil & gas sector.

Over the years, EIL diversified its business in various sectors including energy efficient infrastructure, state-of-the-art data centres, LNG terminals, fertilizers, 2G Ethanol, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), ports & harbours, mining & metallurgy etc apart from its robust oil and gas business portfolio.

Foraying in New Territories

EIL has significantly expanded its business in new geographies which include EPCM services for implementing Dangote Oil Refinery Project (DORC) in Nigeria having total capital outlay of almost $20 billion with highest single train refining capacity in the world. Further, the company is providing PMC services for the 1.5 MMTPA Mongol Refinery project in Mongolia on Line of Credit (LoC) from the Govt of India. This project showcases

EIL’s project implementation capabilities in adverse climates and challenging global business environments. The company’s international reach extends to Guyana, where we are providing PMC services for the supervision of the Guyana Integrated NGL Plant and 300MW CCGT Power Plant.

EIL’s international operations are particularly notable in the UAE, where it has a history of successful partnerships with Adnoc and other major firms. In past projects, EIL has delivered front-end engineering design (FEED) and project management services for Adnoc’s major offshore and onshore projects, including the Borouge petrochemical complex expansion. EIL continues to work with Adnoc, recently completing critical FEED jobs and securing long-term agreements for consulting and professional services across Adnoc group companies.

Looking forward, EIL has a clear vision for growth in the UAE and other international markets. The company is actively seeking opportunities in areas such as carbon capture and storage, bio-energy, integration of solar energy with the process units etc aligning with global shifts towards sustainability and green energy. In the UAE, EIL is also exploring engagements with Fujairah Port on new terminal facilities, as well as working on long-term development projects for Adnoc. Further, its established offices in London, Milan, and Moscow, help EIL manage international procurement and enhance its business from the global market.

Collaboration as Key

to Business Growth

Collaborative growth is one of the cornerstones of the company’s strategic framework. To this effect, EIL has declared 2024 as the ‘Year of Collaboration’, reinforcing its focus on cultivating new alliances. EIL has forged several MoUs and MoAs with reputed academic institutions, national laboratories and industries in the areas of cutting-edge technologies to lay the groundwork for both present and future business opportunities.

Enhancing the Green

Business Portfolio

The oil and gas sector has been mulling on increasing the share of grid power in its operations and eyeing opportunities for integrating renewable power in the refinery process units. For instance, as per EIL’s estimate, around a 10 per cent reduction in the crude heater duty can be achieved by integrating Concentrated Solar Technology (CST) in the crude preheating train showcasing its potential to reduce the GHG emissions in the fossil fuel firing in refinery processes. EIL is offering these services in collaboration with M/s Sunrise CSP Group, Australia.

In addition, this sector will also attract more investment in clean technologies and infrastructures across the globe in the years to come which has recently reached about $2 trillion as per the estimate published in the IEA World Energy Investment 2024 report.

Building on its success and strengthening its R&D and culture of innovation, EIL has designated this year as “The Year of Collaboration.” This initiative aims to deliver innovative, cost-effective technological solutions to its diverse clients, fully aligned with EIL’s renewed vision: “To be a Global Leader offering Total Energy Solutions for a Sustainable Future.”
