2. 1.1 HISTORY:
GAIL (India) Limited was incorporated in August 1984 as a Central Public Sector Undertaking
(PSU) under the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas (MoP&NG). The company was formerly
known as Gas Authority of India Limited. It is India's principal gas transmission and marketing
company. The company was initially given the responsibility of construction, operation and
maintenance of the Hazira โ Vijaypur โ Jagdishpur (HVJ) pipeline project. It was one of the
largest cross-country natural gas pipeline projects in the world. This 1750-kilometre-long
pipeline was built at a cost of โน17 billion (US$270 million) and it laid the foundation for
development of market for natural gas in India. GAIL commissioned the 1,750 kilometres
(1,090 mi) Hazira-Vijaypur-Jagdishpur (HVJ) pipeline in 1991. Between 1991 and 1993,
three liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) plants were constructed and some regional pipelines
acquired, enabling GAIL to begin its gas transportation in various parts of India.
GAIL began its city gas distribution in New Delhi in 1997 by setting up nine compressed natural
gas (CNG) stations. In order to secure gas for its mainstream business, the Exploration and
Production department was created. Today GAIL is a partner in the Daewoo-OVL led
consortium in two offshore blocks in Myanmar which have made a gas discovery. The bulk of its
blocks are located in India in the prolific basins of Cambay, Assam-Arakan, Mahanadi, Krishna
Godavary deep water and onland, Cauvery onland and deep water and western offshore. It is
actively scouting for foreign blocks both exploratory or discovery.
GAIL today has reached new milestones with its strategic diversification into petrochemicals,
telecom and liquid hydrocarbons besides gas infrastructure. The company has also extended its
presence in power, liquefied natural gas re-gasification, city gas distribution and exploration &
production through participation in equity and joint ventures. Incorporating the new-found
energy into its corporate identity, Gas Authority of India was renamed GAIL (India) Limited on
22 November 2002.
GAIL (India) Limited has shown organic growth in gas transmission through the years by
building large network of trunk pipelines covering length of around 10,700 kilometres
(6,600 mi). Leveraging on the core competencies, GAIL played a key role as gas market
3. developer in India for decades catering to major industrial sectors like power, fertilizers, and city
gas distribution. GAIL transmits more than 160 mmscmd of gas through its dedicated pipelines
and have more than 70% market share in both gas transmission and marketing.

GAIL owns the country's largest pipeline network, the cross-country 2300 km Hazira-Vijaypur-
Jagdishpur pipeline with a capacity to handle 33.4 MMSCMD gas. Today the company owns and

22 states in the country. It also owns and operates more than 2000 km long LPG pipelines in the
country and has the pride to operate one of the world's longest exclusive LPG pipeline in the
country from Jamnagar in Gujarat to Loni in Uttar Pradesh. The company also owns and operates

transmission pipeline running from Jamnagar in Gujarat to Loni in Uttar Pradesh. The total
length of this LPG pipeline is 1415 km.
GAIL has started working on the Jagdishpur-Haldia/Bokaro-Dhamra Pipeline. This was earlier
planned to construct between Jagdishpur in Uttar Pradesh to Haldia in Bengal for a total length
of 2050 km. But now it has been reconfigured. The pipeline will connect Prime Minister
Narendra Modi's political constituency Varanasi to the gas grid, to link the Dhamra terminal. The
over 2,500-kilometer line will be constructed in three phases and will also now connect Adani
Group's Dhamra LNG import terminal in Odisha. In the first phase, a trunk pipeline from
Phulpur (Allahabad) will be laid to Dobhi (Gaya) in Bihar with spur lines to Barauni and Patna.
The 755-km Phase-1 project will cost Rs.3,200 crore and will be completed by December 2018.
GAIL already as a line up to Phulpur. It is raising capacity of this pipeline by laying a 672-km
parallel line from Vijaypur in Madhya Pradesh to Phulpur via Auriaya in Uttar Pradesh at the
cost of Rs.4,300 crore. In the Phase-II, a 1200-km line would be laid from Dobhi to
Bokaro/Ranchi in Jharkhand and Angul and Dharma in Odisha at the cost of Rs.5,565 crore.
Phase-III will involve laying 583-km line to Haldia at the cost of Rs.3,425 crore.
