Mumbai, Oct 21 (NationPress) The public sector oil behemoth Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd (BPCL) is set to organize its 28th Energy Technology Meet in Hyderabad next week from October 28 to 30. This international platform will bring together industry leaders and innovators aiming to revolutionize the future of sustainable refining and energy innovation.
Following the impressive success of the 27th ETM, which yielded transformative insights and forward-looking discussions, this year’s event is poised to elevate the dialogue further,” stated BPCL in a release on Tuesday.
“The three dynamic days filled with thought leadership, groundbreaking ideas, and collaborative energy solutions are anticipated to lay the groundwork for a sustainable future,” the statement continued.
Last week, BPCL marked a significant achievement in its LPG sector with the nationwide rollout of the 'Zero Ka Dum' (ZKD) initiative, an innovative third-party certification program for LPG bottling plants across India.
BPCL's LPG operations team has made a remarkable advancement in guaranteeing uncompromised quality and customer safety through the Zero Ka Dum (ZKD) certification initiative.
As part of this program, each LPG bottling facility undergoes a thorough third-party audit conducted by independent agencies accredited by the National Accreditation Board for Certification Bodies (NABCB). These audits evaluate every aspect of the cylinder's journey — from the plant to the end-user — ensuring only high-quality, defect-free cylinders reach consumers.
Sanjay Khanna, Director (Refineries) with Additional Charge of Chairman & Managing Director, remarked: “The 'Zero Ka Dum' initiative symbolizes BPCL's steadfast dedication to operational excellence and customer safety. It is a product of our LPG Business Unit's relentless efforts to enhance plant operations and deliver defect-free cylinders to every home. This milestone signifies our culture of continuous improvement and our conviction that true progress lies in the quality and care we provide to our customers. I commend our entire LPG team for their commitment and for establishing new standards in safety and reliability.”
This initiative underscores BPCL's unwavering dedication to safety, quality, and operational excellence in one of the nation's most critical energy sectors.
The milestone was celebrated during a special event on October 16 at the BPCL Loni LPG Bottling Plant, attended by BPCL's senior leadership, key stakeholders, distributors, and transporters.
