This kind of facility is being set up for the first time in India, the company said. The contract is awarded through international competitive bidding on lump-sum turnkey basis and is part of HPCL’s ongoing Visakh Refinery Modernisation Project wherein LTHE is already executing two packages. “L&T has a proven track record of over 25 years in refinery and petrochemical sector and bagging this contract from HPCL reinforces our integrated capabilities in executing critical plants for the sector,” Subramanian Sarma, MD and CEO, LTHE said. L&T is an Indian multinational engaged in technology, engineering, construction, manufacturing and financial services with over $21 billion in revenue. It operates in over 30 countries.
