|
| Gujarat accounts for 54% of India's onshore crude oil production; 50% of India's natural gas production; 46% of India's installed refining capacity and 60% of India's total crude oil import facility. |
|
| It is Gujarat that has given India its largest Natural Gas discovery of 20 TCF at the KG basin and has already started implementing a 2200 km state-wide gas grid – to connect the demand and supply centres. |
|
| Out of this, 750 km network is already operational and another 650 km pipeline is under implementation. In the next two to three years, the Gas Grid is expected to reach all the 25 districts of Gujarat and cater to the requirements of industrial, commercial and domestic sectors. |
|
| Modi’s relentless efforts helped setting up two LNG terminals – one by LNG Petronet at Dahej and another by Shell at Hazira, both have commenced their operations. His vision of transforming Gujarat into a gas-based economy is steadily being realized with the setting of a state-wide gas grid. Door-step availability of Natural Gas promises to empower the industries as well as households and will completely change the economic landscape of Gujarat by reducing fuel costs and environmental problems. |
|
| Gujarat has taken a pioneering role in utilizing Natural Gas for power generation, fertilizer production, manufacturing and transportation. With an increasing presence of upstream multinationals, downstream giants and midstream companies in Gujarat, the state has emerged as the Petro-Capital of India and leading the country towards energy sufficiency and into an exciting hydrocarbon economy. With an upcoming Special Economic Zone dedicated to Oil and Gas sector, an unprecedented growth is envisaged. |
|
| Addressing any issue in totality as usual, Modi also visualized the need for an institution to undertake research and provide human resource support to the petro capital of India. Thus was born GERMI – Gujarat Energy Research and Management Institute - to pursue energy research and studies and develop specialized human resources for the oil and gas sector. |
