GAIL India has signed three time-swap deals to sell some of its US liquefied natural gas (LNG) as it rejigs the supply portfolio in line with domestic demand. Under the deals, the state-owned utility will buy LNG from international companies this year and sell equivalent amount of Henry Hub-indexed volumes during 2018-19. The company is also seeking destination swaps to cut shipping costs of US LNG.
