Centre Approves ₹3,400 Crore Expansion of IndianOil's Ennore LNG Terminal to 10 MTPA
The Union Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) has granted environmental clearance for the ₹3,400-crore expansion of IndianOil LNG Pvt Ltd's Ennore LNG terminal in North Chennai, doubling regasification capacity from 5 MTPA to 10 MTPA. The expansion, driven by rising natural gas demand in the region, will increase regasification capacity from 20 MMSCMD to 40 MMSCMD, supplying RLNG to industries across Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. Completion is expected in 54 months and supports India's goal of raising natural gas's share in the energy mix to 15% by 2030.
