  3. For effective utilization of the ethane facilities, PLL is exploring sale of ethane to third parties, including rail-based supply of ethane from PLL's upcoming petrochemical complex at Dahej, for which discussions are ongoing with various consumers. The ethane supply through railways would be India's first ever cryogenic movement through railways. Finalization of binding sale agreements is critical for effective utilization of ethane storage, handling and supply facilities.

  4. Necessary sourcing and shipping arrangements of ethane and propane are very crucial for the petrochemical project. Coming two to three years would be most critical for sourcing of the feedstock i.e. propane at a reasonable price for long/mid-term period.

  6. There are various projects such as Dahej expansion from 17.50 MMTPA to 22.50 MMTPA, which is in a very advanced stage of completion. Further, unique 3[rd] Jetty at Dahej, having unloading facilities of LNG, ethane and propane, for which the work is going on in full swing; Land based 5 MMTPA LNG terminal at Gopalpur, are targeted to be completed within a time frame of around 3 years.

  7. In view of the upcoming expansion of Dahej Terminal by 5 MMTPA and new LNG terminal of 5 MMTPA capacity at Gopalpur, long term agreements need to be

Page 16 of 25
