Modi in UAE Secures LPG and Expanded Strategic Oil Reserves MoU with ADNOC

UAE already meets nearly 40% of India’s LPG demand

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s UAE visit delivers two energy pacts aimed at strengthening India’s fuel safety net. India’s IOCL agreed with ADNOC for expanded, long-term LPG shipments, building on the UAE’s role as nearly 40% of total LPG supply. In parallel, ISPRL and ADNOC will expand underground strategic crude storage, extending their 2018 Mangaluru partnership. The deals come as Strait of Hormuz disruptions raise global oil pressure, and the UAE’s OPEC+ exit helps enable direct contracts.
