About India Refining Summit 2023
The 6th edition of India Refining Summit welcomes the think tank comprising of industry’s finest from Oil and Gas and Petrochemicals Sector to exchange thought provoking ideas and pathways towards a Net Zero future of Refineries.
With the global movement against fossil fuels and pledge for net zero emission by 2070, the fossil fuel-based economic model will shift towards adoption of clean energy to achieve scale. It would require refiners to fundamentally rethink how refineries are designed and operated.
Adopting technologies like advanced Biofuels, Green hydrogen and CCS will play a major role in achieving the net zero and decarbonising the hard-to abate sectors.
Indian refineries needs to spearhead petrochemical and lubricant integration leading to a diversified product portfolio and attain profit maximisation.
In pursuit of decarbonising and diversifying the future of refineries, India Refining Summit 2023 invites the industry stakeholders, thought leaders, policy makers and solution providers from India and overseas to discuss the imperatives to achieve the Net Zero Targets for Indian Refining & Petrochemical Industry, latest projects, energy transition endeavours, investments and government initiatives aiding the petrochemical sector, and new and emerging technologies to create Smart, Diverse and Sustainable future.
