India weighs a strategic fuel buffer
CATCH ME UP
India is considering a long-term strategic-fuel programme.
The plan would expand storage for crude oil, liquefied natural gas, and liquefied petroleum gas.
The goal is to buffer against prolonged West Asian disruptions.
Existing storage varies by fuel, and natural gas currently lacks operational underground storage facilities.
