A ROADMAP FOR HYDROGEN ENERGY
NATURAL GAS TRANSPORTATION AND DISTRIBUTION (Over 4500 kms of gas pipelines, 90% Market Share). NATURAL GAS PROCESSING ( 7 Plants in 6 locations producing over 1.3 million TPA of Liquid Hydrocarbons i.e LPG, Propane, Pentane & SBPS). PETROCHEMICALS ( 3 00,000 TPA ethylene along with Downstream units LLDPE/HDPE) LPG TRANSPORTATION (2300 km of pipelines). TELECOM (Bandwidth Provider kms of OFC based DWDM). EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION ( Blocks: 11 in India one in Myanmar). RETAIL MARKETING (CNG and City gas distribution). GAIL’s MAJOR BUSINESS ACTIVITIES
HYDROGEN PRODUCTION AT GAIL Pata Gas Sweetening Feed Gas Compression and Drying Feed Gas Chilling and Separation C2, C3 Cracking & Compression De-Methanizer Residue gas CH4/H2 PSA Unit De-Ethanizer C2+ CO 2 C2/ C3 Fuel gas Hydrogen Capacity : 150 kg/hr Purity: Vol % Natural gas LPG Pentane, SBPS
