On May 21, 2013, India's Essar Oil signed a three-way MoU on a "funding-for-fuel" agreement with CDB and PetroChina. This debt financing deal is to raise $1 billion of external commercial borrowings. Ravi Ruia, vice-chairman, Essar Group; Hu Huaibang, chairman CDB, and Lihua Wang, CEO, PetroChina International signed the agreement in Mumbai. For the next 7-10 years, Essar Oil's refinery in Vadinar will export high-end Euro 5 grade gasoline and other petroleum products. The value of the export will be 2-3 times the loan amount.
