GAIL (India) Limited has signed a 15-year extension of its Gas Sale and Purchase Agreement with Oil India Limited (OIL), starting from July 1, 2025. Under this deal, OIL will supply up to 900,000 SCMD of natural gas from its Bakhri Tibba block in Rajasthan, covering Dandewala, Tanot, and Bagi Tibba fields.
The agreement was signed in New Delhi by Shri Sumit Kishore, ED (Marketing-Gas), GAIL, and Shri Ranjan Goswami, ED (BD), OIL. The gas will be used by Rajasthan Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam Limited (RRVUNL) for power generation, helping meet the region’s growing energy needs.
This move reflects the shared commitment of both Maharatna CPSEs to strengthening domestic energy availability and promoting energy security. GAIL, with its massive 16,421 km gas pipeline network, currently transmits over 127 MMSCMD of gas and continues to expand its infrastructure.
Apart from its pipeline operations, GAIL runs a large petrochemical plant at Pata, holds a strong LNG portfolio of 16.56 MMTPA (around 60 MMSCMD), and commands a significant presence in the City Gas Distribution market. It is also actively expanding into renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and biofuels.
