Govt. gives nod for launching of translucent LPG qas cylinders

摘要

The Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas has conveyed its "in principle" approval to the public sector oil marketing companies (OMCs) for introduction of composite (translucent flbreglass) cylinders for marketing domestic LPG, subject to there being no subsidy element in the LPG to be marketed- through these composite cylinders. Initially, these cylinders are to be launched as a pilot in Bangalore, Chennai, Mumbai & Pune. If successful, translucent LPG cylinders will be launched throughout the country. The composite cylinders are translucent and will show the level of LPG present in the cylinder. Handling of these cylinders would be easier, as they are lighter than steel cylinders.
