The strategically important project will include the development of ethane and propane handling facilities, which are critical for improving plant efficiency and feedstock flexibility.

The EPC contract awarded by Engineers India highlights Technip Energies’ strong credentials in managing complex petrochemical and LNG infrastructure projects. Securing the L1 position reaffirms the company’s leadership in delivering technologically advanced, large-scale industrial solutions.

The development is expected to strengthen India’s domestic polymer manufacturing capacity, reduce import dependence, and support the government’s broader goal of promoting industrial self-reliance and downstream petrochemical growth.
