Shell Energy India owns and operates the 5 mtpa LNG import terminal at Hazira, Gujarat.
The terminal has been in operation since 2005.
In 2021, Shell’s India unit also launched a truck loading unit at its Hazira LNG import terminal, the firm’s first move into small-scale infrastructure.
Two years after that, India’s largest gas utility GAIL and Shell joined forces to collaborate in various fields, including LNG for road transport and regasification.
