Larsen & Toubro’s Hydrocarbon Onshore business has secured a large engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPCC) contract from Petronet LNG Limited. Petronet LNG is jointly promoted by Oil & Natural Gas Corporation, Indian Oil Corporation, GAIL (India) and Bharat Petroleum Corporation.
The project will be executed on a lump sum turnkey basis and involves the construction of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) and ethane double-wall storage tank with a capacity of 170,000 cubic metres, along with a propane double-wall storage tank of 140,000 cubic metres. The facilities will be built at the Dahej Petrochemical Complex in Gujarat.
The scope of work also includes ethane and propane handling and despatch systems to support the propane dehydrogenation and polypropylene plant at the complex. The project forms part of India’s first petrochemical complex designed to integrate cold energy utilisation from an LNG terminal and is expected to support domestic polypropylene production.
L&T stated that the project supports India’s efforts to strengthen domestic petrochemical manufacturing capacity under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative. The order reflects continued confidence in L&T’s execution capabilities for large-scale hydrocarbon infrastructure projects.
Subramanian Sarma, Deputy Managing Director and President, L&T, said the project marks an important contribution to India’s integrated petrochemical infrastructure.
