'''Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals Limited''' ('''MRPL'''), is a [[Division (business)|division]] of [[Oil and Natural Gas Corporation]] (ONGC) which is under the [[ownership]] of the [[Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas]] of the [[Government of India]].<ref name=":0" /> Established in 1988, the refinery is located at [[Katipalla]], north from the centre of [[Mangalore]]. The refinery was established after displacing five villages, namely, Bala, Kalavar, Kuthetoor, [[Katipalla]], and [[Adyapady|Adyapadi]].<ref name="stake"/><br />
<br />
The refinery has a versatile design with high flexibility to process crudes of various [[API gravity|API gravities]] with a high degree of automation. MRPL has a design capacity to process 15 million metric tonnes per annum and is the only refinery in India to have two hydrocrackers producing premium diesel (high [[cetane]]).<ref name=":1">{{Cite web|last=Limited|first=Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals|title=Profile|url=https://mrpl.co.in/profile|access-date=29 July 2020|archive-date=20 September 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200920150657/https://mrpl.co.in/profile|url-status=dead}}</ref> It also has a [[polypropylene]] unit with a capacity of 0.44 million metric [[tonne]]s per year.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Limited|first=Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals|title=pp Unit|url=https://mrpl.co.in/pp_unit|access-date=29 July 2020|archive-date=25 September 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200925185955/https://mrpl.co.in/pp_unit|url-status=dead}}</ref> It is one among the two refineries in India to have two CCRs producing high [[Octane rating|octane]] [[unleaded petrol]]. Currently, the [[Oil refinery|refinery]] processes around 14.65 million tonnes of crude per year. The company's revenues stood at ₹60,062.02 crore (US$8.4 billion) in 2020.<ref name="pnl"/><br />
<br />
MRPL, which was a joint sector company, became a [[Public sector undertakings in India|public-sector undertaking]] after the acquisition of a majority of its shares by ONGC. As of June 2020, 71.63% shares were held by ONGC, 16.95% shares were held by [[Hindustan Petroleum|Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited]] (HPCL), and the remaining shares were held by financial institutions and the general public.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|title=Latest Shareholding Pattern - Mangalore Refinery And Petrochemicals Ltd.|url=https://trendlyne.com/equity/share-holding/885/MRPL/latest/mangalore-refinery-and-petrochemicals-ltd/|access-date=2020-07-29|website=trendlyne.com}}</ref> MRPL has been declared a [[Miniratnas|Miniratna]] (mini jewel), by the Government of India in 2007.<ref name=":2">{{Cite news|title=Mangalore Refinery And Petrochemicals Ltd.|work=Business Standard|url=https://www.business-standard.com/company/m-r-p-l-2496/information/company-history|access-date=2020-07-29}}</ref><br />
<br />
Before its acquisition by ONGC in March 2003, MRPL was a joint venture oil refinery promoted by HPCL, a public sector company and IRIL & associates (AV Birla Group).<ref name=":2" /> MRPL was set up in 1988 with an initial processing capacity of 3.0 million metric tonnes per annum which was later expanded to the present capacity of 15 million metric tonnes per annum.<ref name=":1" /><br />
<br />
The refinery was conceived to maximise middle distillates, with the capability to process light to heavy and sour to sweet crudes with 24 to 46 API gravity. On 28 March 2003, ONGC acquired A.V. Birla Group's stake and further infused equity capital of ₹600 crores, making MRPL a majority-held subsidiary of ONGC.<ref name=":2" /><ref name=":1" /> The lenders also agreed to the [[debt restructuring]] package (DRP) proposed by ONGC, which included, ''inter alia'', conversion of up to ₹3,65,54,884 of the company's loans into equity. Subsequently, ONGC acquired the equity allotted to the lenders under the DRP, raising ONGC's holding in MRPL to 71.63%.<ref name=":0" /><br />
<br />
On 30 August 2018, MRPL was approved a merger with HPCL by ONGC.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.thehindu.com/business/mrpl-to-merge-with-hpcl/article24823487.ece|title = MRPL to merge with HPCL|newspaper = The Hindu|date = 30 August 2018|last1 = Pandey|first1 = Piyush}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|date=2018-05-23|title=HPCL, Mangalore Refinery merger in FY'19: CMD Mukesh Kumar Surana|work=The Economic Times|url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/energy/oil-gas/hpcl-mangalore-refinery-merger-in-fy19-cmd-mukesh-kumar-surana/articleshow/64286919.cms?from=mdr|access-date=2020-06-24}}</ref><br />
