Background
The Long Son LNG Power Complex is a proposed LNG complex in the southern province of Ba Ria-Vung Tau, Vietnam. It is proposed by EVN, possibly with the participation of units of Mitsubishi Corp and General Electric. It is expected to be a US$3.78 billion investment. The LNG terminal will fuel a power plant, the first phase of which will have a capacity of 1,200 MW and 1,500 MW. It is expected to become operational sometime between 2025 and 2026 with a capacity of between 3.5 million tonnes per year (mtpa) and 4.4 mtpa.[4][5]
In September of 2020, the project developers were selecting investors.[4]
In June 2022, The Investor magazine reported that the project still had not found or announced any investors.[6]
As of July 2023, the Power Development Plan 8 delayed the LNG power station associated with the terminal.[7]
According to an April 2025 amendment to the Power Development Plan 8, the LNG project was still listed as active, with a recommendation that the start year be shifted from its now-delayed date range of 2031-2035 to 2025-2030 "in accordance with system demand."[8]
