Background

BPCL Mangalore LNG Terminal is an LNG terminal under development in Karnataka, India.[6]

Feasibility studies for the BPCL 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.[7][8]

In October 2015, Bharat Petroleum scrapped plans to develop the terminal.[9]
