Khalifa Coastal Refinery will refine 200,000 barrels (32,000 m3) of heavy crude oil.

Pak-Arab Refinery (PARCO) will own its 24% shares and remaining 76% will be contributed by International Petroleum Investment Company of Abu-Dhabi.

For KCR (Khalifa Coastal Refinery) the Heavy crude oil will be imported from Iran, Abu-Dhabi and Saudi Arabia. It will be built on 1,800 acres (7.3 km2) of land.

The cost of Khalifa Coastal Refinery has escalated as new related projects including 250 MW natural gas-fired power plant, a grid station, a seaport jetty and a city to accommodate refinery workers have also been launched.[1]

The multi-billion dollars Khalifa Coastal Oil Refinery (KCR) project in Balochistan has stopped due to financial dispute between International Petroleum Investment Company and Pakistan State Oil on the debts of Pak-Arab Refinery (PARCO).[2]
