Harmeet Singh, Manager, LR Operations at HPCL, brings an operational perspective to improving refinery efficiency, resilience, and sustainability through technology-enabled solutions.
In his session, “Decarbonizing Refinery Utilities: From Steam-Driven Vacuum to Electrified Systems – Towards Net Zero Pathways,” Harmeet Singh explores practical approaches to reducing refinery emissions and operational costs while strengthening asset availability. The session highlights the role of on-demand additive manufacturing and qualified digital spare-parts libraries in reducing equipment downtime, inventory requirements, and supply chain lead times. It also examines how certified components produced on demand can support operational continuity while improving supply chain resilience and reducing inventory and logistics costs.
