BOC India wins another major onsite contract from JSW Steel Limited

BOC India Limited (BOCI) has entered into a long-term contract to supply gases for an expansion programme underway at JSW Steel Limited (JSW) at Bellary, Karnataka, southern India.

Under the new contract, BOCI will supply JSW Steel over 3,000 tonnes per day of gaseous oxygen, nitrogen and argon from a custom-built air separation unit (ASU). To meet this requirement BOCI will set up one of the largest build-and-operate on-site air separation plants in the country. The state-of-the-art ASU will meet all of JSW Steel’s gases requirements and additionally will produce liquid products to meet the growing demand from customers in southern India.

This ASU, which will be one of BOC’s largest in Asia, is expected to be commissioned in 2008 in time to meet the requirements of gases arising from the ongoing expansion programme at JSW Steel.

Speaking on the occasion Dr. B. N.
