Energy Transition

Energy Transition

Energy Transition

IndianOil has grown from being an oil major to an integrated oil & gas corporate in India. Oil & gas shall remain the fuels of choice in the foreseeable future, while renewables grow in relevance owing to impending climate change and global warming concerns. Hence, while IndianOil pursues diversification into natural gas and renewable energy, the Company is also putting a lot of emphasis on better and safer petroleum products.

BS-VI Standard Fuels

IndianOil refineries are undertaking major technology upgradations to deliver BS VI fuel, as per world’s cleanest standards, from April 2020. The sulphur content in BS VI standard fuel is 10 parts per million (PPM) against 50 PPM in presently available BS-IV fuel, which significantly reduces particulate and SOx emission.

Blended Fuels

IndianOil is also increasing ethanol and biodiesel blends in its fuel offerings and improving their coverage across the country. During 2018-19, IndianOil achieved 5.3% ethanol blending in petrol in notified states across the country.

In a first-of-its-kind venture in the world, Indian Oil Corporation is planning to utilise off-gases (waste gas) from various processing units of its refineries for production of ethanol. The move will reduce the carbon footprint of the state-run company’s refineries, while helping to gainfully use waste gas produced for the production of ethanol for blending in petrol.

Natural Gas

IndianOil is working towards growth of natural gas in the energy mix by venturing into LNG sourcing, import terminals, pipelines, city gas distribution networks and LNG supply by road tankers. IndianOil has commissioned a 5 MMTPA LNG Import Terminal at Ennore near Chennai recently through a joint venture, which is a first of its kind installation on the east coast of India.

The company is also operating / implementing City Gas Distribution (CGD) Networks in 11 Geographical Areas (GAs) in the country through its two Joint Venture Companies, Green Gas Ltd. (GGL) in Lucknow & Agra GAs and IndianOil Adani Gas Pvt. Ltd. (IOAGPL).

IndianOil is also foraying into H-CNG and Auto LPG for creating a diversified & clean automotive fuel portfolio.

Renewable Energy

IndianOil is promoting installation of renewable energy projects as a business diversification initiative and keeping in mind the stakeholder concerns regarding pollution and climate change due to conventional fuels. The Corporation has also been an early investor in the renewable energy space, much ahead of its peers, and has a growing portfolio. IndianOil has cumulatively commissioned 216 MW of renewable energy projects, which includes 167.6 MW of wind power and 48.6 MW of solar. Installed capacity of Renewable Energy has grown at a CAGR of 26% from 2012-13 levels. At present, the electricity generated from Wind & Solar Energy is equivalent to 5% of the Company’s total electricity consumption.

Compressed Biogas (CBG)

IndianOil has been at the forefront of the Government of India’s SATAT (Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transportation) scheme. The scheme aims to produce automotive grade Compressed Biogas (CBG), an alternative to CNG, from agricultural / sewage / organic waste generated in the country.

Emission Mitigation

Emission Mitigation

Accounting of GHG emissions has helped the company to identify improvement areas and implement emission mitigation measures. Benchmarking studies and energy audits are carried out by various international and national agencies to identify energy saving measures in operating locations and administrative buildings. Thereafter, technology upgradation, automation and energy conservation projects are undertaken to improve operational efficiency. The Company has placed designated energy managers at locations to identify and implement energy conservation measures. Initiatives like ENCON (Energy Conservation), process efficiency improvements, automation, LED lighting etc. have helped the Company to reduce its energy consumption.

Efficiency measures are also driven by statutory / regulatory compliances, e.g. reduction of specific energy consumption (MBN), Perform, Achieve & Trade (PAT) scheme etc.

For IndianOil, emission from Refineries and Naphtha Cracker Unit (NCU) account for more than 90% of the total Company’s emissions. The total GHG emission from IndianOil refineries and NCU in 2018-19 is 18.74 MMTCO2e. The Company undertakes various projects in energy conservation / efficiency, renewable energy, switching to green fuels and tree plantations to reduce its GHG emissions.

ENCON Projects in Refineries

Energy conservation is at the heart of IndianOil's decision regarding technology selection for refinery processes and its operation cycles. Improvements have been made possible through implementation of various energy conservation measures coupled with operational improvement by adopting advanced technology and best operating practices.

Since 2010, benchmarking studies are carried out once every two years under the aegis of Centre for High Technology (CHT), MoP&NG to rank performance of IndianOil Refineries with peer groups and the best in the class refineries worldwide. Identified gaps are bridged through implementation of suitable ENCON (Energy Conservation) measures.

In addition, profitability improvement and optimisation studies are regularly carried out by external agencies such as KBC, Mckinsey, NTPC, etc. as well as by in-house Process Design and Engineering Cell (PDEC) of IOC.

Refinery Performance Improvement Programme (RPIP) implemented by IndianOil, aims at improving the refinery performance in areas like distillate improvement, energy reduction, hydrogen management etc.

ENCON measures implemented in refineries during 2018-19 have potential to save 82,078 SRFT (Standard Refinery Fuel Tonnes) per annum, with an estimated emissions reduction of 255 TMTCO2e. The specific emission from refinery operations have reduced by 12.43% over 2012-13 (base year).

Pipeline Transportation

Pipelines are the most efficient mode of transport for petroleum products, as compared to road and rail. IndianOil avoided 1,329 TMTCO2e of carbon emissions in 2018-19 by transporting 88.5 MMT of crude and finished products through pipeline network instead of rail transport.

Pipeline operations are in-turn being made more efficient by promoting use of engine driven mainline pumping units to electric motor driven pumping units, and use of loop lines.

Energy Efficient Lighting

In an effort to improve its lighting efficiency and reap benefits of significant savings in maintenance costs, monthly electricity bills and emission reduction, IndianOil is promoting LED lights at its locations. IndianOil has implemented a policy guideline to replace all the conventional lights with LED lights. As on 31st March 2019, 4.5 lakh energy efficient LED lights have replaced conventional luminaires.

Automation

IndianOil is upgrading its supply and distribution network to increase productivity, quality of the product, reduce manual intervention, and ensure speed and cost efficient operations. Automation is being undertaken to streamline indenting, optimize liquid stock management across retail network, quicker fill in of tank trucks and ensure safe operations. The initiative also reduces inefficiency related emissions.

Air pollution

Air quality monitoring:-For continuous monitoring of emissions, on line analyzers are installed in refinery stacks. Central / State Pollution Control Boards are provided on-line connectivity of the analyzers, to monitor the emission. Mobile vans and fixed monitoring stations are used to monitor ambient air quality.

Emission control measures:-Measures like tall stacks, use of low sulphur fuel in boilers and heaters, use of low NOx burners, use of sulphur recovery units, flue gas scrubbing, flare gas recovery systems, among others are used to minimize air emissions from operations. Bottom loading facilities are being provided at all new grass root locations with Vapour Recovery system at required locations. Installation of Vapour Recovery System to control fugitive emissions at marketing installations and retail outlets in NCR and NCT is in progress.

Water Management

Reducing Freshwater Consumption

Fresh water is a precious resource. Growing population, concentrated development, pollution of water resources and depleting groundwater have had a severe impact on freshwater availability across the country. For IndianOil, water consumption at its refineries and NCU accounts for more than 90% of company’s total water consumption. The freshwater consumption by IndianOil’s refineries and NCU in 2018-19 was 99.51 million kl.

IndianOil understands the importance of water for sustained operations. The company takes up various measures to ensure responsible sourcing and use of freshwater, improving water use efficiency, recycling and reuse of waste water and rainwater harvesting.

The refineries of IndianOil are fully compliant with the MINAS (Minimal National Standards) set by the Ministry of Environment & Forests, Govt. of India and the Central Pollution Control Board with regard to use of water resources and the quality of effluents discharged.

Water Use Efficiency

Enhancing water efficiency in industrial operations has become crucial as water plays a significant role in continuous operations. IndianOil monitors & assesses its water use, identifies water saving opportunities and implements water efficiency measures, to optimize water consumption. By implementing various optimization measures, IndianOil refineries achieved 12.87% reduction in specific water consumption till 2018-19 with 2012-13 as base year.

Wastewater Treatment & Reuse

Use of water and quality of effluent discharged are carefully monitored by the company. Refineries are equipped with a network of underground sewers for segregated collection of various wastewater streams, which are subjected to precise treatment in well designed effluent treatment (ETP) facilities involving physical, chemical and biological processes. State of art equipment have been provided in the ETPs like Tilted Plate Interceptor (TPI), Dissolved Air Floatation (DAF), Bio-tower, activated sludge basins, dual media filters and reverse osmosis for treating waste water. These treatment facilities are backed by sophisticated instrumentation and real time data systems for close and precise monitoring. Online connectivity to such systems is provided to CPCB / SPCBs to provide real time data.

In Marketing and Pipeline locations effluent water is routed through oil water separator before discharge as per CPCB / SPCB norms. During 2018-19, IndianOil reused 40.15 million KL of treated effluent water, which is approximately 89% of effluent generated in refineries. The Company’s freshwater intake was reduced by 28.7% due to use of treated effluent water.

Rainwater Harvesting

IndianOil has cumulatively installed 608 rainwater harvesting systems with potential to collect approximately 3 billion litres of rainwater every year. This water is used either to reduce freshwater makeup or for recharge of groundwater. The harvested rainwater is equivalent to about 3% of the Company’s fresh water consumption.

Waste Management

Waste Management

Oil & Gas industry deals with various hazardous and toxic products. IndianOil is continually improving the resource productivity of its business processes in order to ensure that the resources are used effectively. The company’s waste management practices are based on twin focus of maximizing resource recycling at installations, and safe treatment & disposal of waste. The wastes that are not recycled in operations are disposed off as per the Central & State Pollution Control Board (CPCB & SPCB) norms.

Hazardous waste

The major hazardous wastes generated during operations are oil slop, oil sludge, spent catalyst and ETP sludge. Generated slop oil is entirely recovered and processed in refinery operations. The oil sludge is processed for oil recovery and reused and any residual sludge is bio-remediated with the help of patented ‘Oilivorous-S’ technology of IndianOil. Spent catalyst is sent for co-processing in Cement industries or given back to supplying companies. Other hazardous waste like biomedical waste is disposed through authorized agents of CPCB / SPCB, while for e-waste management, buyback arrangements are made with supplier. The Company is not transporting, importing, exporting or treating waste deemed hazardous under the terms of Basel Convention.

Non-hazardous waste

While ferrous / non-ferrous scrap generated is sold to government authorized third party recyclers, paper waste is being given to third party recyclers in exchange for stationery. Biogas plants and composters are being used to process organic waste to produce energy and manure. Various paper saving practices such as SMS indenting, digital receipts and reducing paper size are being undertaken across the Company. Retail Outlet inspection reports, rental payments, dealer portals etc are being implemented across the organisation. Digitisation has resulted in tremendous paper savings.

Fuel at Doorstep

IndianOil became the first OMC to deliver fuel through mobile dispensers. The program was flagged in Chennai last December. Previously, the industrial and bulk customers, who required fuel (Diesel) had to visit the nearest retail outlet to fuel in containers/barrels. This initiative aims to make it convenient for the customers to get the fuel delivered to their doorstep. To make use of the service the customer can place orders through a mobile app (Repose app), with a minimum order quantity of 200-litre and for quantities exceeding 2,500-litre, the customer would need to have PESO license for storage. Once the ordered quantity is dispensed, the customer gets an SMS and e-bill on their mobile. For assurance, the quantity check of the mobile dispenser nozzle can be verified through the calibrated five-litre conical measure, is available in the vehicle.

5 Kg LPG Cylinder for New India

A large category of customers can afford LPG but are unable to avail new connection in view of absence of proof of address and paucity of time to visit the distributorship during the working hours, because of their highly irregular work timings. Similarly the small tea stall, road side eateries owners prefer 5 kg FTL cylinder because of less initial investment and ease to carry the cylinders. In order to meet the requirement of target segment of customers, IndianOil is marketing 5 kg FTL cylinders through its distributors, retail outlets and various point of sale like Kirana Stores.

SATAT -Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transportation

SATAT -Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transportation

'SATAT’ (Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transportation) scheme on Compressed Bio Gas (CBG) was launched by Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas. The scheme envisages to target production of 15 MT of CBG from bio-waste by 2023, from 5000 Plants. The initiative was launched as a mass movement to fulfill Mahatma Gandhi's vision of Clean India.

Under this innovative initiative, PSU Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) invited Expression of Interest (EoI) from potential entrepreneurs to set up plants and supply CBG to OMCs for sale as automotive & industrial fuel. There are valuable by-products of the CBG plants including Bio-Manure, which can promote organic farming in the country.

This initiative holds great promise for efficient municipal solid waste management and in tackling the problem of polluted urban air due to farm stubble-burning and carbon emissions. Use of CBG will also help bring down dependency on crude oil imports and in realizing the Prime Minister’s vision of enhancing farmers’ income, rural employment and entrepreneurship.

Environmental Performance




Materials

Materials

IndianOil believes material efficiency in the production improves its economic and business competitiveness besides reducing the environment impacts. IndianOil aims to ensure material and resource efficiency in its operations through state of art technologies, efficient utilization of raw materials, recycling of materials at different phases of operations and reducing the overall waste generation. IndianOil is conscious of the fact that its operations are highly dependent on imported raw materials and hence, various initiatives have been undertaken for optimum utilization of resources,considering the ever increasing demand and consumption and our dependence on natural resources. We also track the raw material consumption and waste generation across the value chain to avoid any leakage and effectively utilize our input materials. Crude oil and raw material consumption at our refineries is 69 MMT for the year 2017-18. During the year, IndianOil improved it's share of indigenous procurement (17.88% in terms of value vs. 16.96% during the previous year) leading to reduced dependence on imports.

Energy

Energy

Energy is a key driver for economic growth, and the energy demand in India is continuously increasing due to various social and demographic factors like Industrialization, population growth, urbanization etc. India, being a fast growing economy has made great progress across sectors like industrial, agriculture, transportation, commercial and domestic sectors over the past decades. With per capita energy consumption still lower than the global average, energy demand in India is projected to soar over the coming decades to achieve sustained and inclusive economic growth. However, the country's fossil fuel reserves are limited which entails efficient utilization of resources, deriving maximum value from the available resources. Hence, there is a greater emphasis for secured, sustainable and affordable energy as a means to underpin development, while addressing environmental concerns.

As a major mitigation initiative, energy efficiency and renewable energy policies have gained lot of importance over the years. Inclusion of three sectors viz., Railways, Refineries and Electricity Distribution Companies (DISCOMs) in the PAT (Perform Achieve Trade) scheme cycle-II shows that energy efficiency initiatives and policies are gaining traction across the sectors. BEE has achieved a cumulative energy saving of 8.67 million tonnes of oil equivalent (MTOE) against the target of 6.686 MTOE in the PAT cycle-I i.e., from 2012-13 to 2014- 15 .15. With the inclusion of new sectors, it is aimed to achieve an overall energy consumption reduction of 8.869 MTOE under the PAT Cycle -II.

IndianOil refineries contribute over 90% of Corporation's total energy consumption and the energy consumption across the refineries has been duly reported. Our total energy consumption during the year has shown a significant increase. This is due to the inclusion of newly commissioned Paradip refinery which achieved its full capacity utilization in May 2017. IndianOil has policy guidelines on Energy Audit to be carried out at the locations with an aim to reduce the energy consumption by 25%. Further, all our operating locations have designated energy managers to identify and implement energy conservation measures. During the year, the ENCON measures implemented at our refinery locations resulted in an estimated savings of 63,093 SRFT. By undertaking various energy efficiency initiatives across the refineries, our refineries have registered best ever Fuel & Loss (F&L), Specific Energy Consumption (MBN) and Energy Intensity Index (EII) of 8.75%, 72.6 and 98.5 respectively during the year 2017-18.

Emissions

Emissions

Global warming due to anthropogenic emissions has grown into one of the most complex issues faced globally. The vast consequences of climate change threaten to affect not only our environment but also economic, social and political setup. Warming of our ecosystem is unequivocal, and since the 1950s, many of the observed climatic and environmental changes have been unprecedented. The average surface temperature has risen by about 0.8°C globally since 1880, while sea level has risen by 6-8 inches in the last century. Due to changing weather patterns, our planet is already experiencing extreme climate conditions viz. heat stress, flooding, drought, reduction in agricultural yield, sea level rise, extreme precipitation and storm surges etc. The problem is further accentuated by the fact that the rate of occurrence of these climatic extremes are increasing, e.g. the rate of rise in sea level in the past two decades is nearly double the rate observed in 100 years preceding it. Human influence on climate system is more evident with the co2 levels surpassing 400 ppm in 2013 for the first time in the history of mankind. In this context, it is critical that companies and governments actively pursue sustainable growth by continuously undertaking various climate mitigation and adaptation actions to prevent adverse impact on our ecosystem.

IndianOil is committed towards low carbon growth by achieving operational excellence that would reduce its carbon footprint. In view of the same, we have undertaken various mitigation measures like energy conservation, energy efficiency, renewable energy generation and tree plantation etc. across our operating locations. IndianOil has also taken a voluntary target to reduce its specific carbon emissions by 18% by 2020 compared to base year 2012-13.

For IndianOil, refineries contribute more than 90% of the total corporation's emissions. We carryout carbon footprinting exercises across our operating locations through which we identify and implement emissions reduction measures. During the year, the total emission from the refineries is 16.7 MMTCO2e, which is higher by 25% compared to 2016-17. This increase in total emissions is due to the inclusion of newly commissioned Paradip refinery. The specific emissions from the refineries stand at 0.242 MTCO2e/MT of crude throughput, which is a reduction of 7.45% compared to 2012-13. The ENCON measures implemented during the year has estimated to reduce carbon dioxide emissions equivalent to 2,04,321 tCO2e. The emissions reported by the corporation are estimated as per international protocols and relevant industry guidelines.

Data Pertains to Refinery Division

During the year, total throughput by the pipeline division is 85.68 MMT and the total GHG emissions associated with our pipeline operations is 3,85,121 tCO2e. The specific emissions during the year 2017-18 is 4.55 kg CO2e/ MT of throughput, against 4.59 kgCO2e/MT for the year 2016-17. Further, an estimated 7,85,080 tCO2e of GHG emissions have been avoided through our pipeline transportation as compared to transportation through rail network.

Prevention of Air Pollution

Prevention of Air Pollution

IndianOil refineries are complied with the norms of Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) and State Pollution Control Board (SPCB) to continuously monitor the air emissions from its operations. The corporation tracks its SOx, NOx, stack emissions and particulate matter emissions released into atmosphere from its operations and ensure the emission levels are within the permissible limits.

Water

Water

Water has become one of the most precious and scarce resources today. Water related risk is a growing operational and strategic risk for continued operation of any business. At present, there is an increasing competition for water resource across the geographies, which poses a huge sustainability risk for the communities and the ecosystem. As per a recent report by 2030 Water Resources Group, water demand in India 3 would reach 1.5 trillion m3 by 2030 against the current water supply of 740 billion m . Considering the projected growth, it is estimated that India may face an aggregate gap of 50% of water demand against the supply. Though the water stress in the country is majorly driven by the agriculture sector, adopting water efficiency measures across industrial, commercial and residential sectors has to be ensured, besides reusing/recycling for efficient utilization of water and to address the water related risks.

IndianOil understands that water is the vital resource for its sustained operations, takes continuous actions to improve its water efficiency and to reduce overall water footprint. It aims to reduce the effluent water generation in its operations and recycle every drop of effluent water generated. We have installed water metering systems across our installations through which we continuously monitor total water consumed from various sources, effluent water generated and effluent recycled in our operations. We are making steady progress towards our voluntary target of reducing our specific water consumption by 20% by 2020 compared to 2012-13 levels by undertaking various water conservation measures. During the year, the total water consumption by our refineries stands at 99.45 million KL. The increased water consumption is due to the inclusion of newly commissioned Paradip Refinery. However, the specific water consumption by our refineries stands at 1.44 m3 /MT of crude processed for the year 2017-18, which is a reduction of 8.61% compared to 2012-13.

Water footprinting exercises have been carried out every year across the locations to identify and implement water savings measures. We had installed over 560 rainwater harvesting systems till date with water harvesting potential of around 3 billion litres per annum. During the year, IndianOil refineries have recycled around 38.74 million Kl of water i.e., 89% of effluent water generated. For Indian Oil, surface water is the major source followed by ground water. Measures like rainwater harvesting, reusing/recycling of effluent water generated have helped refineries to reduce the fresh intake of water. We continuously monitor the quality of treated effluent water discharged outside our installation and ensure the PCB guidelines are complied with. Further, IndianOil has ensured that no water resources have been significantly affected due to its operations.

Waste

Waste

IndianOil strives to reduce the amount of waste generated at different phases of its operations across the value chain and reuse/recycle the waste generated wherever possible. Oil industry handles highly hazardous and toxic products and hence, safe disposal of waste generation is of utmost important for IndianOil. The wastes that are not recycled in our operations are disposed off as per the CPCB and SPCB norms. We continuously monitor the quantity of hazardous and non-hazardous wastes generated in our value chain and disposed, and records are maintained for the same. The major hazardous wastes generated during our operations are oil slop, oil sludge, spent catalyst and ETP sludge.

IndianOil aims to derive maximum value from the waste generated. Accordingly, we have taken waste paper recycling initiative and implemented organic waste convertors across the locations. For waste paper recycling, our locations have partnered with third party recyclers who would collect the waste paper and provide new paper stationeries against the same. During the year 2017-18, we have recycled around 130 tonnes of waste paper. To treat the organic/kitchen waste generated at our locations, we have installed organic waste convertors and biogas plants. The biogas generated from the biogas plants/organic waste convertors is used for cooking purpose and the compost generated is used as manure. During the year, we have treated 338 tonnes of organic wastes through biogas plants/OWCs installed at our locations. We are not transporting, importing, exporting or treating waste deemed hazardous under the terms of BASEL convention.

Environment Expenditure

Environment Expenditure

IndianOil complies with all the local and national laws and regulations without fail. There have been no violations and penalties reported for the year 2017-18 regarding our operations. We comply with all the environmental standards by central pollution control board and state pollution board. There have been no show cause/ legal notice received from CPCB/SPCB for the year 2017-18. Further, there were no fines, monetary or non-monetary sanctions for non-compliance with environmental laws and regulations have been reported during the year. Strict environmental and regulatory compliance have been achieved across the company.

Gujarat Refinery has received three grievances through GSPC in 2017-18, with respect to foul smell in Vadodara city, dumping of waste at Chamunada nagar-GIDC, Smell in areas of Jetalpur & Refinery boundary, and the same have been addressed and resolved. In Ahmednagar, public grievance case for contamination of Groundwater caused due to leakages of products from petroleum storage tanks and pipelines installed by IndianOil & BPCL was filed and the same is pending with NGT (National Green Tribunal). All the directions given by NGT court are complied by IndianOil.

Bio-Diversity

Bio-Diversity

IndianOil believes Biodiversity is of greater importance for balanced and stable ecosystems. Thus, any harm created to the ecosystems can have serious impacts on habitats of interdependent animals, plants, and microorganisms and their environment. To conserve the natural habitats, IndianOil has developed greenbelts in its operating locations. Also, extensive tree plantations have been undertaken across the refineries, townships and other installation to develop green cover. Native tree species have been chosen to carryout the plantation activity. During the year 2017-18, around 1,22,300 trees have been planted in our operating locations.
