Adani Group and French company TotalEnergies’ newly built Rs 6,000 crore facility to import LNG at Dhamra on the Odisha coast will start commercial operations at the end of May, the French firm said on Monday.
The 5 million tonne a year capacity terminal received its first ever shipment of liquefied natural gas – a fuel that will be used to make steel, produce fertilizers and turned into CNG and cooking gas – on April 1.
Qatari ship ‘Milaha Ras Laffan’ docked at Dhamra port on April 1 morning, bringing in 2.6 trillion British thermal units of natural gas in its frozen form (LNG) which will be used to commission the facility.
