Background

Guangdong Dapeng LNG Terminal is an LNG terminal in Guangdong, China.

Guangdong Dapeng LNG is China’s first LNG import terminal and has received more than 48 million tons of LNG since 2006. Originally commissioned to receive 3.7 mtpa of LNG, additional construction increased the capacity to 6.8 mtpa. The terminal also included the Trunkline project which supplies LNG to Guangdong Province through high-pressure gas pipelines. The Guangdong Dapeng LNG terminal received the first cargo of LNG from Cheniere’s Sabine Pass liquefaction and export terminal in Louisiana in August of 2016.

In May 2018 the terminal's capacity was reported to be 7.7 mtpa.
