Petronet’s Dahej LNG terminal on India’s west coast is due to get a cargo of LNG onboard the 154,800 cbm Aseem from Qatar on October 6, shipping data reveals.
The Dahej terminal in Gujarat, when built, was South East Asia’s first LNG receiving and regasification terminal with an original nameplate capacity of 5 MMTPA.
The capacity of the terminal, commissioned in 2009, has been expanded to 10 MMTPA.
The expansion involved construction of 2 additional LNG storage tanks and other vaporization facilities.
