The company plans to break ground this year for the regasification and receiving terminal with a capacity of 2.2 mtpa, with commercial operations targeted to start by 2023.

The LNG facility will help support the demand for a clean, low-cost, and environment-friendly energy source in Luzon and contribute to the sustainable development of the Philippine economy.
