Aegis Vopak Terminals Limited (AVTL) has announced a positive final investment decision to construct a greenfield terminal facility at the Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA) in Mumbai, India. The comprehensive development will include storage capacity for 132,000 cubic meters of LPG and 318,000 cubic meters of liquid products, alongside an LPG bottling plant with 35,000 metric tonnes of capacity.
This facility represents AVTL’s second terminal at the JNPA port, positioning the company to expand its market share in serving the highly industrialised and rapidly growing hinterland of India’s western and central regions. The strategic location capitalises on the port’s connectivity to major industrial centres and consumer markets.
The terminal development is scheduled for phased commissioning beginning in mid-2026, allowing for systematic capacity deployment and operational optimisation as market demand evolves.
Vopak holds a 42.23 percent shareholding in AVTL, making this development a significant component of the company’s regional expansion strategy. The investment aligns with Vopak’s global growth strategy, which encompasses industrial and gas infrastructure development, as well as infrastructure projects supporting the energy transition.
The new facility addresses growing demand for LPG and liquid product storage in one of India’s most economically dynamic regions. The western and central Indian markets represent key consumption centres for both industrial applications and domestic LPG usage, making the JNPA location strategically advantageous for supply chain efficiency.
The development reflects broader infrastructure investment trends in India’s energy sector, where port-based storage facilities play a crucial role in supporting economic growth and energy security objectives.
