GSPC Gas Company, a part of State-promoted Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation Ltd (GSPC) Group, will supply natural gas through pipelines to Jamnagar and Dwarka districts, Energy Minister Saurabh Patel said here on Friday.
GSPC Gas will invest Rs 800 crore in the next five years on laying a pipeline network in a 10,600 square km area in the two districts on India’s western coast. This would benefit 3.70 lakh domestic, commercial, and small industrial customers. Besides, GSPC Gas will also set up CNG stations for supplying gas to vehicles.
With this, the GSPC Group, through its three subsidiaries – GSPC Gas, Sabarmati Gas and Gujarat Gas – will be supplying gas to a total of nine lakh customers in 15 districts of Gujarat.
After a competitive bidding to supply gas to Jamnagar and Dwarka, GSPC Gas won authorisation from the sector regulator Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB), which has authorised the company to lay a network of pipelines.
