In what is being seen as a big relief to gas-based power stations, deepwater gas based on free market pricing will now be deemed as acceptable for project promoters to be the basis on which they can claim "availability" status for their plants under a power purchase agreement (PPA).
8Accordingly, even if they are not producing (as gas based power may be more expensive under India's merit order despatch system), promoters will become entitled to compensation of capacity related charges by utilities with whom they have long term PPAs.
8The stand of the utilities that plant availability will only be accepted if such gas is priced at less than or equal to gas price notified by the government from nomination fields was rejected.
8This breather may allow some promoters (who can back up their claims, which in itself may not be all that simple) to keep their heads over water while the government works out a deal to get stalled gas based capacity going on cheaply available gas.

The PPAC and the petroleum ministry have come in for criticism for their inability to provide disaggregated data on the oil & gas industry
8The one revolution that the current petroleum minister can bring about is greater transparency in data dissemination
8In the PPAC data, for example, there is a very high share of non-specified industry in overall reporting. In the case of petroleum fuels, despite sector-wise reporting, 88% of end-use is ambiguous as it gets reported under the resellers/retailers/miscellaneous head. This is due to the lack of a bottom-up estimation process
8Further, the lack of harmonized classification of different end-use sectors within the available energy statistics reports does not allow for a comprehensive view of energy consumption at sectoral levels
8End-use view of auctioned products as well as imported fuel is inaccessible
8On oil & gas emission, there is no data at all on gas leaked during E&P operations
8The PNGRB, for example, is planning to digitize gas sector transations but how much of it will be available to the public is not known.
8It looks like the data dissemination in India is way below par in comparison to global peers
