India’s first multi-product petroleum pipeline, a 435 km link from Guwahati to Siliguri, was commissioned in 1964 by Indian Refineries Ltd.

The construction and commissioning of the pipeline opened up a new chapter in the history of petroleum pipelines in India. #ThrowbackThursday #IndianOil #FuelingIndia #GuwahatiSiliguriPipeline #EnergyOfIndia #ThrowbackThursday #IndianOil #FuelingIndia #GuwahatiSiliguriPipeline #EnergyOfIndia
