State-run Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) in India is strategically expanding its natural gas presence by investing ₹25,000 crore in its gas business, with a focus on city gas distribution (CGD) and LNG infrastructure. The company aims to double its gas portfolio share from 4% to around 8-9% in the near future. BPCL is set to establish 10 new liquefied natural gas (LNG) stations and enter a five-year supply agreement with Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) for 0.45 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) to meet the increasing demand for cleaner fuels, particularly during India Energy Week 2025. In addition to LNG initiatives, BPCL is exploring green hydrogen opportunities. While acknowledging the current high cost of green hydrogen, the company is actively working on two pilot projects and plans to scale up investments once the cost per kilogram decreases to $2.5-3. By positioning itself for the future with green energy solutions, BPCL aligns its goals with India's overarching plan to raise the natural gas share in the energy mix from 6% to 15% in the coming years, contributing to the country's energy transition and reducing its reliance on conventional fossil fuels.
