India directs refineries to ramp up LPG production

Change
India invoked emergency powers to direct oil refineries to ramp up LPG production to augment domestic supplies amid disruptions to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.
India directs refineries to ramp up LPG production
Why it matters
Refinery operators must immediately reallocate processing capacity and prioritize production of propane and butane, altering run-plans and feedstock use. Bottling and distribution networks will need to scale throughput and logistics to move larger LPG volumes into domestic markets promptly.
Implications
  • Refinery production planning teams at oil refineries must reconfigure processing runs and allocate more feedstock toward LPG (propane and butane) production without delay.
  • LPG bottling plant operations and logistics teams must increase packing throughput and expand distribution schedules to handle higher domestic supply volumes.
