Petronet LNG Outlook Positive Amid Capacity Expansion and Geopolitical Challenges
Analysts remain optimistic about Petronet LNG's prospects despite geopolitical tensions affecting gas supply, including the US-Israel-Iran conflict. Petronet, partly owned by public sector companies, expects a quick resumption of Qatar supplies. The company's recent capacity expansion at the Dahej terminal raises focus on utilization rates, which are projected to decline in FY27 due to high LNG prices but recover by FY28 as prices moderate. Elevated prices may reduce regasification volumes but offer trading gains, while pipeline connectivity improvements could boost Kochi terminal volumes.
