KOCHI: Ever since the lockdown came into effect, the workers of BPCL Kochi Refinery have been working tirelessly to ensure steady supply of fuel, mainly cooking gas, to all households in Kerala and neighbouring states. These unsung heroes have been sticking to a well-charted duty schedule without compromising on social distancing norms to ensure smooth production of Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG). BPCL Kochi refinery has been producing 1,800 metric tonnes of LPG per day and the production has not come down during the lockdown. <\/p>\n

We revised the three-shift schedule and incorporated two shifts of 12 hours each to minimise the number of workers in the 1500-acre facility,\u201d said Murali Madhavan, refinery executive director. He said all workers are allowed to enter the facility only after their temperature is evaluated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
