New Delhi, Aug. 14 GAIL India Ltd has qualified for making final bids for setting up compressed natural gas stations in Syria, Mr U.D. Choubey, Chairman, GAIL said. Speaking to reporters here on Tuesday, he said that his company was interested in setting up city gas distribution projects in Algeria, Egypt and Libya.

“We had put in our initial bid with Delta of Algeria for setting up CNG stations in Damascus,” he said. GAIL has pre-qualified and final bids were expected shortly. GAIL had offered to develop CNG-based infrastructure in Syria besides planning to set up joint ventures for city gas distribution projects in that country.

As per reports, GAIL was keen on joining the $13 billion Trans-Saharan gas pipeline that is to supply gas from Africa to the European market. Once built, the 4,300-km line will transport gas from Niger Delta in southern Nigeria through Niger, and into Algeria and Europe.
