The government has issued fresh directives to oil refineries across the country to increase liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) production. This move comes as part of broader efforts to ensure adequate supply of cooking fuel and industrial gas requirements.

New Committee for Allocation Evaluation

A new committee has been formed to specifically evaluate LPG allocations for hotels and industries. This committee will be responsible for assessing the distribution and allocation mechanisms for commercial and industrial sectors.

Impact on Oil Refineries

Oil refineries will need to adjust their production schedules and capacity utilization to meet the increased LPG production targets set by the government. The directive affects all major refineries operating in the country.

Sectoral Focus

The government's initiative particularly focuses on ensuring adequate LPG supply for:

• Hotel industry requirements
• Industrial sector needs
• Commercial establishments

The formation of the evaluation committee indicates a systematic approach to addressing allocation challenges in these specific sectors.
