New Delhi, Apr 27: Technip Energies India has commissioned its first captive jetty at its Modular Manufacturing Yard (MMY) in Dahej, Gujarat, marking a milestone with the dispatch of its first large-scale process module consignment to the Netherlands for a global energy major. The development underscores India’s growing role as a strategic manufacturing and export hub, aligned with the vision of ‘Make in India’.
The jetty enables the direct movement of oversized modules – each weighing up to 4,000 metric tonnes – that were previously constrained by road transport limitations. The modules have begun their journey and are currently enroute to North Europe via the Red Sea and the Suez Canal, ensuring seamless global connectivity.
This infrastructure has significantly enhanced logistics efficiency, reducing transit time from an estimated 15 days via road to just 48-72 hours. It also delivers approximately 60–70% fuel savings, resulting in lower logistics costs and a meaningful reduction in carbon emissions – further strengthening Technip Energies India’s commitment to sustainable operations.
Completed in an accelerated timeline of approximately seven months, the jetty stands as a testament to strong execution capabilities and engineering excellence. More importantly, it positions India at the forefront of Technip Energies’ global modular execution strategy, enabling the company to qualify for and deliver complex, large-scale international projects.
Commenting on the milestone, Davendra Kumar, Managing Director, Technip Energies India & APAC, said:
“The commissioning of the jetty at MMY– Dahej and the successful dispatch of our first consignment, marks a defining milestone for Technip Energies India. By enabling faster, more efficient, and sustainable execution at scale, our people have redefined delivery excellence and adherence to world-class safety standards. We see India emerging as a strategic hub for Technip Energies, playing a pivotal role in our global project delivery network. It is a proud step forward in advancing the spirit of ‘Make in India’ on the global stage.”
This milestone underscores Technip Energies’ commitment to driving operational excellence while contributing to the global energy and chemicals value chain. The integration of advanced logistics infrastructure such as this jetty is expected to further enhance cost efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and position the company strongly in delivering future large-scale modular projects.
