GAIL (India), the owner’s engineer of the LNG regas block of RGPPL, has successfully commissioned the Dabhol LNG terminal located at Ratnagiri, Maharashtra around 340 km south of Mumbai. The terminal is operated by RGPPL, a joint venture of GAIL (India) and NTPC as major share-holders and remaining equity being held by financial institutions and MSEB. GAIL, the commercial operator of the terminal, had arranged commissioning cargo for the terminal in December 2012.
The commissioning of the Dhabol regas terminal provides access to natural gas supply to the southern and western states - Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. The company is also at an advanced stage of commissioning the 1400- kilometer Dhabol-Bengaluru pipeline system. Power, Fertilizers and small industries shall benefit from this regas terminal in terms of savings vis-a-vis alternate higher priced fuels such as naphtha, fuel oil etc. The transport and the household segments shall also get the opportunity to utilize the clean fuel at cities and towns enroute the pipeline corridor.
GAIL, as a commercial operator of the Dabhol Terminal, has under-written the re-gas capacity of the Terminal for 25 years for lending support to the project. In the immediate future, the re-gas from the terminal will cater to the demand of the customers in Maharashtra through GAIL’s Dabhol-Panvel pipeline connected to Maharashtra regional pipeline network.
The commissioning of the Dabhol terminal along with GAIL’s cross country gas pipeline network is poised to integrate the entire gas market of India from Bhatinda/Nangal in North to Kochi in South spanning a gas grid over 3400 kms.
