Norway's Crown LNG is developing a 7.2 million tonnes per annum liquefied natural gas terminal offshore Kakinada on India's east coast, with project sanction expected next year. Crown expects the engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning contractor and key subcontractors will be announced in the coming weeks. Operational start-up is envisaged around three years after the Kakinada LNG import project is sanctioned. Crown has signed an agreement with East LNG to finance, build and lease the infrastructure and the terminal will be developed as a gravity-based structure that will sit on the seabed about 11 kilometres offshore.
