Annual Report - 2005-06 - GAIL (India)

6. Hydraulic pressure turbocharger in Gas
Processing Unit (GPU): This project is
envisaged to recover pressure energy from
amine stream in GPU employing the latest
technology.The project is under approval with
an estimated cost of Rs.6.76 Crores. This would
yield energy savings of 5040 MWH/year and
cost savings of Rs.2.82 Crores per annum.
VIJAIPUR
7. Vapour absorption refrigeration system of
airconditioning has been undertaken at
Vijaipur at an estimated cost of Rs.70 Lakhs. On
implementation of the project, the expected
savings of energy would be @ 1148 MWH
and the corresponding cost savings would be
approximately Rs.56.6 Lakhs.
8. Installation of MEEFOG system is presently
under implementation at Hazira at an estimated
cost of Rs.250 Lakhs. On completion of the
project it is expected to save energy to the tune
of 28382 MKcal /year . The corresponding cost
savings would be around Rs.1.29 Crores /year.
(c) Impact of the measures at (a) and (b) above
for reduction of energy consumption and
consequent impact on the cost of production
of goods:
Energy conservation measures taken so far
have resulted in an improvement in energy
efficiency as detailed at (a) and (b) above.
(d) Total energy consumption and energy
consumption per unit of production:

C. FOREIGN EXCHANGE EARNINGS
AND OUTGO:-
(f) Activities relating to exports;
initiatives taken to increase
exports; development of new
export markets for products and
services; and export plans:
Since commencement of
production in 1999, GAIL has
been consistently exporting the
polymer grades HDPE & LLDPE to
export markets depending upon
the international demand supply
scenario. During the year 2005-2006,
the domestic demand had been
ample and the inventory was all
time low and hence exports had
been Rs.19 Crores only. However,
during the year 2006-2007, GAIL is
planning to export various grades
of polymers on a regular basis
to different countries like China,
Vietnam, U.A.E, etc.
g) Total foreign exchange used and
earned:
During the year, foreign exchange
earnings were Rs.22.65 Crores
which was mainly on account of
export of polymers.
Expenditure in foreign currency was
Rs.802 Crores which was mainly on
purchase of gas from JVCs.
