Platts: India, Thailand Seek LNG Through Tenders

State-owned buyers in India and Thailand have issued two separate LNG buy tenders for deliveries starting in 2015, several sources said this week.

Indian oil and gas company Gail issued a buy tender Wednesday for six cargoes, two for delivery in the period May-December 2015 and four for delivery in the period January-October 2016, market sources said Thursday.

The tender will close Wednesday February 18 with validity until February 25, a source said.
