Background

Mangalore LNG Terminal is an LNG terminal under development in Karnataka, India.

Feasibility studies for the Mangalore LNG Terminal began in 2013 with plans for an initial receiving capacity of 2-3 mtpa, with an eventual capacity of 5 mtpa. The initial goal was to bring LNG to the area to replace the use of heavier fuels such as naphtha in industrial uses.

As of March 2019 the project had not advanced and appears to be shelved.
