Under the MoU, NRL will export approximately 10,000 metric tons of petroleum and petrochemical products per month from the IWAI Jogighopa Multi Modal terminal. Additionally, NRL will establish a POL Oil Terminal at the Jogighopa Logistics Park with rail connectivity, further strengthening the region's transportation infrastructure, the ministry of ports, shipping and waterways said.

 

The primary goal of this MoU is to fulfill the 'Hydrocarbon Vision 2030 for Northeast' by harnessing inland waterways transportation via NW2 and IBPR, ushering in a new era of export-import trade for the Northeastern region.
