Suresh Gopi, the Minister of State for Petroleum & Natural Gas (MoPNG), reviewed the progress of Bharat Petroleum Corporation’s (BPCL) multi-product pipeline project, which will ensure better fuel supply across western Tamil Nadu and neighbouring regions.
The Minister, on Tuesday, chaired a high-level meeting in Coimbatore to review key energy infrastructure projects in Tamil Nadu being executed by BPCL.
The review meeting included the Irugur–Devanagonthi multi-product pipeline project, which is being implemented at a revised project cost of about Rs 1,732 crore with 82.6 per cent physical progress.
City Gas Distribution (CGD) projects of BPCL for Erode and Nilgiris districts, costing around Rs 3,685 crore as investment and recording physical progress of around 44.6 per cent, were also reviewed by Gopi.
The Irugur–Devanagonthi project, with a design capacity of 3.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa), is an important infrastructure project aimed at linking Tamil Nadu and Karnataka by laying a cross-country multi-product pipeline of around 355 km and establishing associated terminal facilities.
This is anticipated to greatly improve the efficiency and reliability of fuel supply across western Tamil Nadu and neighbouring regions by ensuring faster, safer, and more environmentally friendly transportation of petroleum products.
The project will also strengthen regional energy infrastructure and improve logistics efficiency, while creating significant jobs and promoting long-term industrial and economic growth in the region.
