The proposed strategic storage comprises three components namely storage cavern, pipeline, and jetty. MECON Limited has done the route and site survey. The pre-feasibility study was undertaken by Engineers India Limited (EIL). The Detailed Feasibility Report (DFR) was done by Geostock, France. The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) study was done by RITES Ltd. The Risk Assessment (RA), disaster management plan, and geotechnical risk assessment have been carried out by TCE consulting Engineers Limited and Central Mining Research Centre (CMFRI), Nagpur. Initially, due to COVID-19 and now due to lack of Environment Clearance (EC), the project is continuing to be on delaying track. The reason being due to the presence of lesser manpower as per requirement. RFQ for the equipment regarding cavern storage and the pipeline is expected in March-2021.
