Jamnagar refinery expansion

Jamnagar Refinery Expansion: The World’s Largest Refinery by Production Capacity

Located in Gujarat, western India, the Jamnagar Refinery is the largest refinery in the world by production capacity. Owned by Reliance Industries, it was commissioned in 1998 and spans a vast 50 km² area.

For Phase 3 alone, more than 305,000 tons of steel reinforcement were used in a 36-month project, involving over 100,000 engineers and construction workers.
Dextra has been involved in Jamnagar since the early phases, supplying rebar splicing solutions for Phases 1, 2, and 3 of the project.

Dextra’s Rebar Splicing Solutions for Phase 3:

Three rebar coupler solutions were used in Phase 3:

  • Bartec Solution
    Used for cast-in-situ applications, including bar-to-bar connections in foundations, pile cages, and column cages.
    Also utilized in heavily congested rafts and pile caps to facilitate efficient rebar splicing.
  • Groutec Couplers
    Applied to pipe racks, which were constructed from precast elements in a dedicated precast factory within the project.
    Positioned in the bottom elements and filled with grout, eliminating the need for in-situ wet joints and ensuring fast, secure connections between beams and columns.
  • Unitec Couplers
    Used in applications where rebar length was too short to allow traditional overlap connections.
