Gujarat Energy signs a ten-year LNG supply agreement with Abu Dhabi National Oil Company
6 November 2026
Gujarat Energy has signed a sales and purchase agreement with the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company for the supply of up to four million tonnes of liquefied natural gas.
The agreement runs for ten years and supply begins in 2028.
The gas will come from XRG, ADNOC's wholly owned investment arm, and the company described it as XRG's first LNG sale from its international portfolio.
LNG is natural gas cooled to a liquid so that it can be carried by ship; it is turned back into gas at a regasification terminal before it goes into a pipeline.
Gujarat is the natural landing point for such cargoes because India's LNG import terminals are concentrated on its coast.
ADNOC is the national oil company of the United Arab Emirates, whose capital is Abu Dhabi.
In plain words
LNG Liquefied Natural Gas — Natural gas cooled to a liquid for transport by ship.
ADNOC Abu Dhabi National Oil Company — The national oil company of the United Arab Emirates.
