GAIL (India) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Indian Railways to create infrastructure for supplying natural gas to the transporter's workshops, production units, depots and residential colonies.
It aims to the creation of infrastructure and supply of compressed natural gas (CNG), piped natural gas (PNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) for both industrial and domestic purposes.
It would also help replace industrial gases like dissolved acetylene, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), Bharat Metal Cutting Gas (BMCG), furnace oil and High-Speed Diesel (HSD) with natural gas.
