H-Energy Private Limited and Korea Gas Corporation Limited, SK Shipping, Fairwood Peninsula Energy and Korea Development Bank, have entered into a landmark MOU on November 16th, 2016. This MoU envisages the participation of four large entities, in the FSRU and pipeline projects of H-Energy Private Limited in the East Coast and the West Coast of India through equity investments coupled with joint management in the areas of project execution, operations and maintenance and skill development.
On the East Coast of India H-Energy Pvt.

This project was awarded to H-Energy Pvt. Ltd and its technical partner through a tender process carried out by the Kolkata Port Trust. In parallel H-Energy Pvt. Ltd plans to lay a 715 km Natural Gas pipeline originating in Contai in West Bengal. This pipeline is intended to service a number of customers in West Bengal, Odisha as well as to gas based power projects in Western Bangladesh. The point of delivery of Natural Gas will be near Dattapulia at the India-Bangladesh border.
H-Energy Pvt. Ltd is also executing an FSRU and pipeline project at Jaigarh Port in Maharashtra on the West Coast of India. For this project H-Energy Pvt. Ltd has entered into a Port Concession Agreement with JSW Jaigarh Port Limited and has awarded the contract for the construction of LNG jetty to JSW Jaigarh Port Limited.

Ltd, namely a 60 KM tie-in Natural Gas Pipeline from Jaigarh to Dabhol and a 635 KM Natural Gas Pipeline from Jaigarh to Mangalore through the markets of Ratnagiri, Sindhudurg, Goa and Karwar. The EPC contract for the construction of the LNG jetty and the EPCM contract for the construction of tie-in pipeline will be awarded shortly.
The cumulative capability of Korea Gas Corporation Limited, SK Shipping, Fairwood Peninsula Energy and Korea Development Bank is immense . KOGAS is the largest importer of LNG in the world and owns and operates 4440 km of pipeline network in Republic of Korea.
