Seros Logistics, Shell India sign LNG distribution pact

Gujarat-based Seros Logistics has signed an agreement with Shell Energy India to distribute LNG in India, it said on October 20 in a statement.

As part of a ten-year contract, Seros will be the logistics partner for Shell for doorstep delivery of LNG across the country. The partnership aims to lead the country towards an environment-friendly future while developing a larger market for this green fuel, the company said.

“India is rapidly shifting towards being a gas-based economy and the need of the hour is to opt for a fuel that is not only safe and reliable but also eco-friendly,” Seros CEO Ashish Agarwal said.

Shell Energy India, a unit of Anglo-Dutch Shell, operates the 5mn metric ton/year Hazira terminal in the western Indian state of Gujarat. It commissioned a truck loading facility at the terminal earlier this year.
