Background

Phase 1(惠州LNG接收站项目一期)

Huizhou LNG Terminal (惠州LNG接收站) is a LNG terminal under construction in Huizhou, Guangdong, China.

Yudean was hiring workers to build the facility as of September 2019.[10]

On Sep 2018, Guangdong Province, Huizhou City,signed a memorandum of cooperation for the Huizhou LNG terminal with ExxonMobil.[11]

The LNG terminal was planning to build three 200,000-cubic-meter storage tanks, with receiving capacity of 4 mtpa. [12] Phase 1 has a baseload capacity of 4 mtpa and a maximum capacity of 6.1 mtpa. [13]

On January 2020, the Energy Conservation Report of Huizhou LNG Terminal was approved by Guangdong Provincial Energy Bureau.[14]

In July 2021, Huizhou LNG terminal project was permitted by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC).[15]

The construction of Huizhou LNG Terminal began in August 2021.[16] The operating date was set at the end of 2023 or early 2024.[17][18]

As of January 2023, the construction is ongoing. [19]

The construction is at the very end stage as of January 2024.[20]

The first LNG cargo arrived at Huizhou LNG terminal, marking the operation of the terminal[21].

Phase 2 (惠州LNG接收站项目二期)

On September 24, 2024, the Guangdong Provincial Development and Reform Commission approved the Phase 2 project.[22]

In 2026, the project was included in both the “20 Key Provincial Projects on the Renping Peninsula” and “Huizhou’s 176 Key Provincial Projects.” [23][24]
