Posco International (KRX:047050) will invest 950 billion won to add two 200,000-kiloliter tanks at Gwangyang LNG Terminal 2 by July 2026, Pulse News reported last week.

The expansion will boost storage capacity to 1.33 million kiloliters, sufficient to supply heating gas nationwide for 40 days.

The terminal, which is a key LNG hub in South Korea, leases storage to major energy firms such as SK Inc.'s (KRX:034730) SK E&S and S-Oil (KRX:010950), generating annual revenues of 100 billion won with up to 40% profit margins, the report said.

Shares of S-Oil fell over 1% in recent trade on Monday while those of SK Inc. plunged more than 6%.
