TotalEnergies Partners with GSPC for Long-Term LNG Supply to Support India’s Energy Transition

(IN BRIEF) TotalEnergies and Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation Limited (GSPC) have signed a ten-year Sale and Purchase Agreement, under which TotalEnergies will supply GSPC with 400,000 tons of liquefied natural gas (LNG) annually starting in 2026. The LNG will primarily support GSPC’s industrial customers but will also benefit Indian households, businesses, and service stations supplying Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)-powered vehicles. This agreement strengthens GSPC’s LNG portfolio and supports India’s energy transition by promoting cleaner energy solutions.

(PRESS RELEASE) PARIS, 12-Feb-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — At a ceremony in New Delhi during the India Energy Week, TotalEnergies and Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation Limited (GSPC), a state-owned oil and gas enterprise, announced a significant long-term Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA). Starting in 2026, the agreement will see TotalEnergies deliver 400,000 tons of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to GSPC, equating to six cargoes per year over a ten-year period.

The LNG, which will be sourced from TotalEnergies’ extensive global portfolio, is set to be delivered to terminals along India’s west coast. The primary beneficiaries of this supply will be GSPC’s industrial customers, although it will also support Indian households, businesses, and service stations that supply Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)-powered vehicles, such as auto-rickshaws.

Gregory Joffroy, Senior Vice President LNG at TotalEnergies, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “We are proud to have been chosen by GSPC as a trusted LNG supplier in India. This agreement highlights TotalEnergies’ position as a leader in the LNG market and reflects our commitment to supporting India’s energy transition and ensuring long-term energy security.”

Milind Torawane, Managing Director at GSPC, emphasized the importance of this agreement in addressing India’s growing natural gas demand. He remarked, “This partnership with TotalEnergies represents a major advancement in GSPC’s strategy to secure reliable LNG supplies for the long term. It will help bridge the widening supply gap in Gujarat and across India, while aligning with GSPC’s goal of becoming a major player in the gas trading sector. This deal also strengthens our operations by leveraging GSPC Group’s transmission and distribution infrastructure.”

Natural gas is increasingly viewed as a vital part of India’s energy transition. As a cleaner alternative to other fuels, it supports a wide range of activities, from industrial operations to cooking and transportation, helping to reduce both greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution.
