MINISTER OF PETROLEUM & NATURAL GAS AND PANCHAYATI RAJ (SHRI MANI SHANKAR AIYAR)
(a) to (e): Requests are received by the oil marketing companies from their retail outlet dealers from time to time for creating CNG facilities in their outlet premises. Considering the need for creating CNG facilities in the area and based on techno-economic feasibility, IGL create CNG facilities at selected retail outlets of the oil marketing companies in a phased manner.
At present, there are 137 CNG stations in Delhi operated by IGL and Oil Marketing Companies. The break-up of these stations is as follows: -
IGL - 82
Oil Marketing Companies - 55
TOTAL - 137
The CNG stations in different parts of Delhi have been created after market surveys so as to cater to the requirements of the CNG vehicles in different areas.
IOC, HPC, BPC and IBP have informed the Ministry that 3, 2, 3 and 4 cases respectively of their retail outlets are pending for installation of CNG facilities. It is not possible to indicate the time by which the CNG facilities will be operational at these retail outlets since it involves various steps like obtaining approval from the Explosives Department, construction, provision of equipment by M/s IGL, etc. During the current financial year 2005-06, six new CNG stations are proposed in Delhi as detailed below:-
