State of Euphoria in Indian Natural Gas Market 2017-2030: India Set to Become an LNG Juggernaut and Swing Demand in Global LNG Trade - Research and Markets

The "India Set to Become an LNG Juggernaut and Swing Demand in Global LNG Trade" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

India has been registering a sustained growth in terms of demand for natural gas and its outlook towards sourcing LNG from global supply destinations has been promising. The positive sentiments around India as a promising LNG buyer received a significant push when India (at COP 21, Paris) committed to reduce its carbon intensity by a third from 0.37 kg per capita of GDP in 2005. All the same, the government's plan to double the share of natural gas in India's energy mix - from 6.5% in 2015 to 15% over the medium term goes well with the positive perception of India's outlook towards developing its gas market.

Indian government is rightly playing the role of a facilitator and has brought a series of new policies & frameworks in areas related to generating global interests in domestic Oil & Gas field development (DSF Bidding, Revenue Sharing Contract Model, HELP) and as well as bringing clarity on the pricing framework of natural gas in the country (New Domestic Pricing Guidelines, and Pricing Freedom for gas from deep-water, ultra-deep water and HPHT) through price notifications and price ceiling.

India's energy outlook is transforming; Recognition of the versatility of natural gas in terms of meeting the growing energy needs of the country, considerations towards reducing massive imported crude oil dependence pegged at nearly 80%, support towards adoption of clean energy source and substantiating the domestic natural gas production volumes with imported LNG for sustainable natural gas market growth will help the government deal with its growing energy need.
