HMEL is setting up an integrated petrochemical complex at the existing Guru Gobind Singh Refinery in Bathinda, Punjab state, India, which will be a 1.2-million-ton mixed feed cracker plant, expandable to 1.5 million tons. The new dual-feed ethylene plant will include a steam cracker, a refinery off-gas treatment unit, a C4 hydro generation unit, a pyrolysis gasoline hydrogenation unit, a benzene extraction unit, a butene unit, two polyethylene swing units, an HDPE unit, and a polypropylene unit.
AMPO POYAM VALVES has worked hand in hand with HMEL on the optimal valve selection for each special unit and critical application of this new petrochemical complex and is supplying valves up to 30” and 2500 lbs. A special mention deserves the development of several high pressure (2500lbs) 24” Y pattern globe valves.
It has been our wide experience in the petrochemical and refining industries and thousands and thousands of cryogenic and non-cryogenic as well as high-pressure service valve references worldwide, and in particular in India, which has made HMEL entrust the award of this contract to AMPO POYAM VALVES. Moreover, it should be noted that AMPO POYAM VALVES has since 2009 an outstanding and a 100% owned valve manufacturing plant in India.
With this new project, AMPO POYAM VALVES increases its presence in India and reinforces its leadership in petrochemical applications.
