Sudarshini Ennelli, Oil & Gas Analyst at GlobalData, comments: “India is striving to develop a robust transmission pipeline infrastructure for greater transport of oil and gas to meet the ever-growing demand for energy.”

The Kandla–Gorakhpur product pipeline is one of the key projects with a length of 2809 km and costing US$1.4 billion. The LPG pipeline would run from Kandla port in Gujarat state to Gorakhpur in the Uttar Pradesh state. The pipeline project would serve LPG bottling plants in the states of Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh and meets growing demand for the commodity.

The Jagdishpur–Haldia Phase II gas pipeline is also one of the key projects with a length of 1900 km and estimated at US$1.4 billion. The pipeline would be operated by GAIL covering the Indian states of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Odisha, and West Bengal. The pipeline project aims to connect India's eastern region with national gas network catering to the needs of domestic and industrial consumers.
