rainman + 263 October 14, 2019 French energy giant Total SA is spending $600 million to expand its presence in one of the world’s fastest-growing natural gas markets. Total agreed to purchase a 37.4% stake in India’s Adani Gas Ltd., a distributor of the fuel that’s developing import terminals and a national chain of vehicle-filling outlets. The deal gives the French company a footprint in a market where annual liquefied natural gas demand will hit 28 million tons by 2023, making it the fourth-biggest importer of the fuel, according to BloombergNEF. Total is the latest energy major seeking to expand in India, where population growth and economic development are luring some of the biggest oil and gas producers. In August, Reliance Industries Ltd. said Saudi Arabian Oil Co. may buy 20% of its oil-to-chemicals business at an enterprise value of $75 billion.

pinto + 293 PZ October 14, 2019 Definitely India government wants to split the business and sell it for value unlocking completely .... So, logically because it's too difficult for any company to come and buy if the government controls and runs the company. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BALBOA + 37 BR October 14, 2019 Saudi Aramco, ADNOC, BP, Shell, Total, Rosneft and ExxonMobil and their presence in India are the best evidence of a potentially very, very profitable market. Promising growth story about India. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ward Smith + 6,615 October 14, 2019 Given how up to 40% of Indian electricity is stolen, I'm not sure I'd want to be distributing natural gas there. I've seen those idiots climb poles to jack the power, and let me say OSHA would be having kittens. Not only do they directly steal the power by bypassing the meter, they also simply ignore the bills if they do have a meter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
