Hazira Gas Processing Complex (also known as HGPC) is a natural gas processing plant operated by Oil and Natural Gas Corporation in Hazira, India.
Phase 1 of the plant was commissioned in the mid-1980s, and its infrastructure was designed for receiving natural gas along with associated condensate from the Mumbai High Off-shore Field.[1] Once the condensate is separated and treated in condensate fractionation units, the gas undergoes several stages to extract liquefied petroleum gas and lower its dew point to below 5°C. This aims to prepare it for extended transport via the HVJ Gas Pipeline.
In 1986, the engineering, procurement, and construction contract for phase 1 was awarded to state-run Engineers India, which, in turn, ran the global tendering process on behalf of ONGC.[2]
