Due to other adversities, including lower prices, the country's natural gas production fell by 11.5 per cent in 2020 to 8 million metric standard cubic meters (MMSCM).

In addition, long lockdowns led to a decline in gas demand at all levels. If we look at the demand for gas from various industries, it is 4 per cent in the fertilizer sector, 4 per cent in the power sector, 12 per cent in the city gas distribution, 15 per cent in the refinery and petrochemicals. Cammy. 9% is consumed in Ind. But it has declined.

The government has recently fixed the price of gas produced from domestic fields at 1.5 / mmbtu. Which is at an all-time low. However, the price of Ultra Deep Watergas Field is ૬ 3.05 / mmbtu. Thus, even lower prices have adversely affected production.
