Background

In September 2025, construction began on an industrial park with an LNG power plant, known as Haiphong LNG power station, and an import terminal consisting of a floating storage unit with a regasification system (FSRU). Total investment in the complex was estimated to be US$7.12 billion. The first phase of the power plant, with a capacity of 1600 MW, is planned to be operating no later than 2030, suggesting that the import terminal will be operating by that time.

The project is being developed by Vingroup and VinEnergo Energy JSC. It is distinct from the Cat Hai FSRU proposal, also known as Hai Phong FSRU, which had been under development by a consortium including Exxon Mobil and JERA and is inferred to be cancelled.

Vingroup and VinEnergo broke ground on the Hai Phong LNG power plant project on September 26, 2025, within the Tan Trao industrial park. The associated LNG import infrastructure is planned at the mouth of the Van Uc River, where water depth of -16 m would accommodate LNG carriers of 180,000 m3 or more, with one berth, one FSRU, and a pipeline to the 4,800 MW (2x phases) power plant, which is targeted to be operational by the end of 2030.
