BARIA- VUNG TAU: A US$1.35 billion underground storage facility for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia with a huge storage capacity of 240,000 tonnes, is expected to soon become operational in the Mekong Delta province of Bà Rịa – Vũng Tàu.

As part of a polypropylene plant project by the South Korean-funded Hyosung Vina Chemicals company, the storage cavern has been built at a depth of between more than 100m to nearly 200m above sea level, with 95 per cent of its workload completed.
