Pachpadra Refinery MCQ

Question 1

With reference to the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs decision on HRRL in April 2026, consider the following statements:
1. The approved revised project cost was Rs.79,459 crore.
2. The project cost was revised from Rs.79,459 crore down to Rs.43,129 crore.

4. After the increment, HPCL's total equity investment was stated as Rs.8,962 crore.

Statement 2 reverses the direction of revision. Statement 4 confuses additional equity with total HPCL equity after increment, which was Rs.19,600 crore.

Question 2

Consider the following statements about the 21 April 2026 Pachpadra refinery fire:
1. The fire originated in the Crude Distillation Unit of the HRRL complex.
2. The complex was located in Balotra district.
3. The fire originated in the polypropylene unit rather than the Crude Distillation Unit.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

Accepted Answer

Statements 1 and 2 are correct according to the verified corpus fact. Statement 3 is incorrect because the cited fact places the origin in the Crude Distillation Unit, not in the polypropylene unit.

Question 3

With reference to the verified corpus fact on the 21 April 2026 refinery fire, consider the following statements:
1. The fire originated in the Crude Distillation Unit.
2. The incident was in the HRRL complex in Balotra district.
3. The fire originated in the registered office at Jaipur.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

Accepted Answer

Statements 1 and 2 are correct according to the verified corpus. Statement 3 is incorrect because the cited fire location is the Crude Distillation Unit of the HRRL complex in Balotra district, not the Jaipur registered office.

Question 4

With reference to HPCL's refinery portfolio and HRRL's place in it, consider the following statements:
1. HPCL owns and operates refineries in Mumbai and Visakhapatnam with capacities of 9.5 MMTPA and 15.0 MMTPA respectively.
2. HPCL holds a 48.99% equity stake in HPCL-Mittal Energy Limited, which operates an 11.3 MMTPA refinery at Bhatinda.
3. The Pachpadra project is a new 9 MMTPA greenfield refinery-cum-petrochemical complex through HRRL, with HPCL holding 74% equity.
4. Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals Limited is the same company as HRRL and is located at Pachpadra.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

Accepted Answer

Statements 1, 2 and 3 are correct from HPCL's refinery page. Statement 4 is incorrect because MRPL is a separate Mangalore refinery entity; HRRL is the Pachpadra, Rajasthan project.

Question 5

With reference to connectivity and logistics details mentioned by HPCL for HRRL, consider the following statements:
1. HPCL says HRRL is connected to the nearest port Kandla, which is at 500 km distance.
2. HPCL says the Amritsar-Jamnagar Expressway is 500 km long in total.
3. HPCL says HRRL is connected to the nearest port Mundra, at 500 km distance.
4. HPCL says the Amritsar-Jamnagar Expressway is 1400 km long with 500 km Rajasthan coverage.
Which of the statements given above are correct?

Accepted Answer

Statements 3 and 4 are correct: HPCL mentions Mundra as the nearest port at 500 km and describes the Amritsar-Jamnagar Expressway as 1400 km long with 500 km coverage in Rajasthan. Statements 1 and 2 distort those details by naming Kandla and by reducing the total expressway length to 500 km.
