L&T wins order for hydrocarbon onshore business

The project, to be delivered entirely on a lump sum turnkey basis, comprises engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning (EPCC) of an LNG/ethane double-wall storage tank with a capacity of 170 000 m³ and a propane double-wall storage tank with a capacity of 140 000 m³ at the Dahej Petrochemical Complex in Gujarat, India. The scope also includes ethane and propane handling and despatch facilities to support the propane dehydrogenation and polypropylene plant.

This project is part of India’s first petrochemical complex integrating cold energy utilisation from an LNG terminal and is expected to contribute towards bridging the domestic polypropylene demand-supply gap. The project aligns with Government of India’s Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative by strengthening indigenous petrochemical manufacturing capacity.

Subramanian Sarma, Deputy Managing Director & President - L&T, said: “This order is a significant milestone for us as we contribute to India’s first integrated petrochemical complex leveraging LNG cold energy. It aligns with the nation’s Aatmanirbhar Bharat vision and strengthens indigenous petrochemical capacity.”

E S Sathyanarayanan, Senior Vice President & Head of L&T Onshore and Member of L&T’s Executive Committee, added: “Securing this order from Petronet LNG is a strong endorsement of our expertise in executing complex EPCC projects. We are fully committed to completing this project safely, efficiently, and within the agreed timelines, while upholding the highest levels of quality.”
