The Andhra Pradesh Gas Distribution Corp. (APGDC), Gas Authority of India Ltd. (GAIL), GDF Suez and Shell have signed two agreements to set up a floating LNG terminal at the deep-water port in Kakinada.
The first memorandum of understanding (MoU) set up a terminal company between APGDC, GDF Suez and Shell. The APGDC, a joint venture company of Andhra Pradesh government and GAIL, GDF Suez and Shell, will have 48%, 26% and 26% equity in the project, respectively.
