Indian liquefied natural gas imports jumped by more than 45 percent in April from a much lower figure in April 2020 caused by last year’s drop in economic activity after the appearance of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Indian liquefied natural gas imports surged for a ninth month in the current fiscal year as more volumes were imported at a lower cost from countries such as Qatar, the US, Australia and West African nations.

Qatargas, the leading global liquefaction and LNG export company, has achieved a landmark 2,000th cargo delivery to India to help the Asian nation’s transformation to the use of cleaner fuel and to reduce pollution in cities such as Mumbai.
