HPCL plans 215-km LPG pipeline from Haldia port to Panagarh
State-run Hindustan Petroleum (HPCL) is planning to lay a 215-km pipeline to transport liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) from the Haldia port to the company’s bottling plant in Panagarh, West Bengal. As much as 1.06 million tonne per annum (MTPA) of product is estimated to be transported through the pipeline by FY26.
The company’s demand for LPG for West Bengal, Bihar and Jharkhand markets are met through imports in the Haldia terminal, and the fuel is now transported to HPCL’s bottling plants by road. HPCL currently operates 3,775 km of hydrocarbon pipelines across the country.
