For Indian refineries operating at national scale, sustained profitability depends on navigating volatile crude markets, evolving demand, and regulatory expectations—while extracting greater value from every barrel in line with India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat vision. Here, digital intelligence is emerging as a strategic enabler, strengthening operational decisions and asset utilization.
Embedding intelligence directly into refinery and petrochemical workflows helps sustain EBIT by optimizing bottom-of-the-barrel economics and linking feedstock choices to downstream polymer performance—supporting integrated growth, faster market response, and long-term value creation aligned with India’s Atmanirbhar ambitions.

Sustainability is becoming one of the core operational priorities for the downstream industry, and digital decarbonization is central to making it actionable. Lummus Digital provides a strategic approach to measure, manage, and reduce emissions across the enterprise—from individual assets and units to complex, multi-unit operations. By combining energy consumption analysis, real-time emissions visibility, and what-if scenario evaluation for alternative fuels and configurations, this approach helps identify the most effective decarbonization pathways. Automated, audit-ready reporting supports regulatory alignment, enabling sustainability to be embedded into operational and investment decisions while sustaining performance and long-term value.
Leadership Spotlight at IEW 2026 will feature Sujoy Choudhury, Chief Strategy Officer at TCG Group & Lummus Digital, as part of the session on “Data- and AI-driven decision-making to strengthen exploration outcomes.”
The session will explore how advanced data analytics and AI are enabling faster, higher-confidence decisions, enhancing operational insights, and fostering collaboration across the oil and gas value chain. Attend to gain strategic perspectives on leveraging digital intelligence to drive exploration efficiency, operational excellence, and long-term growth in the energy sector.
