Assam-based central PSU Brahmaputra Crakers and Polymers (BCPL) has proposed investing Rs 450 crore for a naphtha import storage and despatch facility in West Bengal’s Haldia port area.
The largest petrochemical project in the northeast, the famous Assam Gas Cracker project, is being carried out by BCPL.
The company handed over the feasibility report of the project to Kolkata Port, now known as Syama Prasad Mookerjee Port (SMP).
“BCPL today submitted its feasibility report for the naphtha import storage and despatch facility at Haldia. The investment will be Rs 450 crore,” Kolkata Port chairman Vinit Kumar said at the Maritime PPP conclave.
