Background

Thailand's Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT) and PTT are considering a proposal to develop a 5 mtpa FSRU LNG import project that would deliver gas to a proposed 1400-MW gas-fired power plant in Surat Thani's Phunphin district. This project replaces EGAT's prior proposal to develop the Gulf of Thailand FSRU project.

As of July 2023, there are no updates on the project. The terminal is presumed to be shelved.
