GAIL pre-pones US gas supplies, eyes new deals to meet India’s energy demand

GAIL (India) Ltd has pre-poned the supply of gas from the US and is looking to contract more LNG next year as it doubles down efforts to secure affordable energy supplies to meet the needs of Asia’s third-largest economy, chairman Manoj Jain said.

India’s No.1 gas transporting and marketing firm has long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply contracts from the US to Australia and with Russia, supplementing domestic gas supplies.
