Thar coal reserves have 175 billion tonnes of coal, which is equivalent to 618 billion barrels of crude oil recently informed by VC of The university of the Punjab. Following is the list of top 5 oil reserve countries of the world:

Country Reserves (bbl) Production/day (mbl) Reserve life (yr)

Saudi Arabia 260 8.8 81
Canada 179 2.7 182
Iran 136 3.9 96
Iraq 115 3.7 85
Kuwait 99 2.5 108

175 billion tons of Thar according to Professor Dr Mujahid Kamran equal 618 billion barrels of crude oil.

This is more than twice if we compare it with oil reserves of KSA and equal to total oil reseves of top 4 countries.

If like KSA, we utilize about 10 million of it per day, it would suffice for more than 200 years. Not to forget other resources that Pakistan have when compared with KSA. For example, we have largest gold/copper ore deposits at Saindak (Baluchistan) dying to be expoited.

Under the barren mountains of Balochistan and hot sands of Sindh, there is unlimited amount of oil and gas reserves not touched yet. And still further, we have furtile lands of Punjab, ready to feed a population twice as big as we are now, the best irrigation system (waiting for more water reservoirs to enrich it), and the best qulaity cotton and rice. Last but not the least, we have brave Pushtoons, the vigor of courage that is essential for a nation. We have population, young brains and exploding urban middle class to enrich the intellectual and culture needs of the nation.

What else we want? It is pedalogical to know that Saudi Arabia only sells about 9 million Barrels of Oil per day. It has the best infrastructure in the world, with a cradle to grave welfare system for its citizens, superb freeways, fantastic hospitals and an infrastructure that is the envy of the world. Pakistan’s credit crunch in temporary. Once the country gets over the hump in the next few years, it can begin improving its infrastructure which is the best in South Asia even now. We hope it to be true soon.

Why doesn't it include Aramco ?

Reliance Petroleum Limited (RPL) on 25 December 2008 announced the commissioning of its refinery in a Special Economic Zone at Jamnagar, Gujarat in India. With the completion of the RPL refinery, Jamnagar has emerged as the ‘Refining Hub of the World’ with the largest refining complex with an aggregate refining capacity of 1.24 million barrels (197,000 m3) of oil per day in any single location in the world. jamnagar refinery is 30 km away from kutch[2]

The list consists of worlds largest Refineries, not oil companies

What is more important is that it is among the most profitable refineries in the world, since it can refine all types of crudes; and the margins shoot up whenever heavy-light differentials become large (since it has one of the most complex refineries, measured on the Nelson scale).

That said, oil refining is a commodity business.. and margins follow a cyclical pattern (as with all commodities).

So far, only Reliance has shown guts to run a successful commodity type business, which needs economies of scale to be profitable.

All others ... notably Tatas earn most of their profits on branded products... carving a niche or offering which are not necessarily the cheapest on the block.

Even the IT giants - Infosys, TCS, CTS, Wipro et al. run their business on reputation, quality services ... not just prices.

Even SAIL, L&T, Bharti, ... you name it... none has based its successful solely on price proposition.. in a commodity business. They emphasize things, other than just prices ... and don't run after volumes doggedly (unlike for example chinese which just run after volumes, profits or no profits).

Nirma probably beat HLL.. basically on prices. running a successful detergents business focussed on stronger price proposition ..and commoditising the detergents business.

Basically, only Reliance did it in India ... running after volumes.. and being profitable just because of that reason.

Please open new thread to post this info.

Its good that Pak has such large reserves, but thread is related to Largest Oil Refineries of World not coal reserves.

give more info. thanks in advance

well... info on what..

RIL annual reports will give lot of info about their operations.

Rest is mostly newspapers readings, over many years.

MBA hoon yaar.. companies ke baare mein to pata hi hoga.

The globally competitive RPL refinery was completed in 36 months from concept to commissioning, which was a new benchmark for building a grass-root refinery of this scale and complexity. RPL achieved the milestone by leveraging the project management skills of the Reliance group together with world-class implementation partners like Bechtel, UOP LLC and Foster Wheeler amongst others.

There are plans in the pipeline to process High Pour Point crude oil extracted at Barmer, Rajasthan in the near future. This would require an electrically heat traced pipeline to be set up from Barmer to Jamnagar. These developments indicate that there might be further expansions to the crude processing units at the refinery.[3]

@IND51 have you purchased share of Reliance Industries Ltd.......

@IND51 have you purchased share of Reliance Industries Ltd.......

I have ...

Just breaking even over a period of 1.5 years.

It's still running at 860-ish. (In fact dropped to 690 !!! -- damn I didn't purchase more then).

Keeping my fingers crossed... I am down my 1.5 years worth of interest, to say the least.

Sitting and waiting.... and hopeful of 2013.

World's Largest Oil Refiners

 

[3Idiots]

^^^ only two burning a$$es?

best to ignore.

Nay...it's actually fun to have them here.

 

[Tridibans]

A little research always helps (for all the burning *****). Jamnagar has two units. Combined IT IS THE WORLDS LARGEST FACILITY

Petroleum Insights: World's Top 21 Largest Oil Refineries -- OGJ

Quote from above:

Notes: RIL's new refinery in the Special Economic Zone at Jamnagar is the world's sixth largest and has a Nelson Complexity Index of 14.0, making it one of the most complex refineries globally. The refinery has a capacity of processing 580,000 barrels of crude oil per stream day. With the commissioning of the new refinery in its SEZ, Jamnagar has now become the petroleum hub of the world. With 1.24 million barrels per day of nominal crude processing capacity (i.e., No. 6 Jamnagar + No. 4 Jamnagar, above), it is the single largest refining complex in the world. This is equivalent to 1.6% [sic] of global capacity or one third of India’s capacity, and places RIL amongst the top ten private refiners globally. Please read RIL's website, here.

Why doesn't it include Aramco ?

It seems living in Saudi for years has not taught you some things.

Aramco is not an oil refinery, it's national Saudi oil company.
