West Asia War LIVE Updates: The government has revised the priority for allocating domestically produced natural gas, giving the cooking gas and transport sectors first charge to meet their full requirements before supplies are made to other sectors to ensure uninterrupted supply. With the widening West Asia conflict disrupting energy supplies, the government has cut gas allocation to sectors like petrochemicals so that 100 per cent requirement of the fuel needed to produce cooking gas LPG as well as CNG for automobiles and piped cooking gas to households is met. LPG is predominately extracted from crude oil but can also be separated from natural gas. After the West Asia conflict disrupted around 80 per cent of India's 21-million-tonne LPG imports, the government has asked refineries to boost domestic production by diverting petrochemical streams and using natural gas to raise LPG supplies for cooking fuel.
