Commenting on the development, Mr. S. N. Subrahmanyan, Chairman and Managing Director of L&T, stated that securing this significant contract from QatarEnergy LNG is a milestone in the company’s history. He emphasized that the project not only expands L&T’s international energy project portfolio but also contributes to Qatar’s long-term energy security goals.
