The shipment is expected to arrive in India next week as the country looks to stabilize supply after recent disruptions in the global gas trade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shipping data from Kpler shows the LNG cargo is being transported aboard the vessel Orion Hugo LNG Carrier, which has been chartered by energy major Shell plc. The vessel is scheduled to reach India around March 15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">India currently imports roughly half of its daily natural gas consumption of about 195 million standard cubic metres per day (mmscmd). Supplies from the Middle East, which previously accounted for around 60 mmscmd, have been affected following disruptions linked to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and a force majeure declaration by its largest supplier, Qatar Energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To manage the shortfall, authorities have begun redirecting gas from non-priority sectors to essential industries, highlighting the country\u2019s growing dependence on LNG imports to maintain energy stability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India\u2019s state-run gas company GAIL (India) Limited has purchased a liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":627,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[108],"class_list":["post-626","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-energy","tag-gail"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.8 -
