Other than the regular petroleum products like light distillates, middle distillates,
heavier products like Furnace Oil, Bitumen, etc., IndianOil refineries also manufacture
petroleum products for specific applications. These specific applications could
be feed stock for chemical industry, raw material for specific industries and solid
