AZB & Partners assisted State Bank of India led consortium in closing one of its largest financing transactions of ~USD 1.4 Billion with Petronet LNG Limited. PLL has availed of this financing for its upcoming PDH-PP (Propane Dehydrogenation-Polypropylene) Plant, including first-of-its-kind ethane and propane handling facilities, as part of augmenting the capacity of its Dahej terminal in Gujrat from 17.5 to 22.5 MMTPA, setting up a new re-gasified LNG terminal at Gopalpur, Odisha and various compressed bio-gas plants to be set up across India. This transaction underscores the critical importance of Liquified Natural Gas and biofuels in the energy mix of India and the ability to act as “clean bridge fuels” as India moves towards its energy transition and security goals.
