It is expected that decisive actions would be taken by way of diverting gas supplies from “non-priority” sectors such as refineries, petrochemical and steel units to power and fertiliser rojects.
Upcoming gas-based power projects are faced with a serious fuel crunch amid lower-than-expected output from key domestic gas fields. Half a dozen gas-based power units that are either in advanced stages of commissioning or have started operations are to be considered for fuel allocation in the meeting.
Government officials involved in the exercise reportedly said the EGoM, which had last met on July 28 last year, is likely to take up the issue of allocation of gas to the power units on a priority basis so that all of them can be commissioned within the Eleventh Five-Year Plan period ending March 2012.
