- India is the world's fourth-largest LNG importer after Japan, South Korea, and China. Despite its growing demand for LNG, India faces significant challenges in seeking new supplies. - One major challenge is the lack of domestic infrastructure and pipelines. India's current LNG import terminals are operating at full capacity, and there's a need for additional terminals to accommodate new supplies. - Another challenge is the increasing global competition for LNG supplies. Other countries such as China and Japan are also vying for the same supplies from LNG-producing countries such as the United States, Qatar, and Australia. - India is seeking new LNG supplies through long-term contracts with suppliers such as Qatar and Russia. Additionally, the country is exploring alternative sources such as spot markets and renewable energy sources. - There's been speculation over the possibility of reviving the Trump-era deal, which was a proposed agreement between India and the United States. However, the deal wasn't finalized and was put on hold due to various economic and diplomatic issues. - While there's no clear indication of whether the Trump-era deal will be revived, India is actively seeking new LNG supplies through multiple channels and exploring new opportunities to meet its growing demand.
