GAIL maintains CNG and D-PNG supplies despite upstream disruptions

Due to the fire break-out at ONGC Gas Processing Plant, Hazira, about 30 MMSCMD of natural gas supplies into GAIL’s north-western pipeline network (HVJ system) was immediately shut-off by the upstream major, to contain any further damage.

Owing to the ONGC Hazira incident, supply cuts upto 40% against current allocations has been imposed on the downstream customers. However, uninterrupted supplies are continued to be maintained to the CGD customers for supporting domestic kitchens (D-PNG) and public transportation (CNG).

GAIL north-western pipeline grid supports about 80 MMSCMD and there is no damage to the network due to the unfortunate incident at ONGC facilities at Hazira.
