VADODARA, India, Dec. 10, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Global leaders in cryogenic liquid storage, distribution and re-gas solutions, INOX India Pvt Ltd (INOX) has crossed yet another historic milestone by commissioning India's first LNG Dispensing Station at Dahej in the Bharuch District in Gujarat. The dispensing station has been commissioned at the Petronet LNG Terminal.

The LNG station would dispense fuel to the buses which are expected to ferry staff of Petronet LNG from Bharuch town to Petronet LNG terminal in Dahej, which is located at a distance of 50 KMs.

INOX India's latest endeavour would bring about various benefits with the use of LNG as a sustainable energy source.
