Ennore Port Ltd

The Ennore Port in Chennai, one of the 12 major ports in the country, will now be known as Kamaraj Port.

Indian Oil Corp (IOC) will start work on its first liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant at Ennore in the east coast by the end of this year, its chairman said on Tuesday, as it sees a gradual rise in local acceptance of the costly imported fuel.

The Union Cabinet on Thursday approved leasing of land of Ennore Port Ltd for a Rs 4,320-crore liquid gas (LNG) import terminal being built by state-owned Indian Oil Corp (IOC). IOC plans to build a 5 million tonne a year liquefied natural gas (LNG) import facility at Katupalli (Ennore) by 2016.
