Key operations and statistics

 

High-growth markets

E&PIn T&D, BG Group has focused on the high-growth markets of Brazil and India.

In both of these markets, gas demand tends to be related to economic growth, which is strong, and there is low, but increasing, penetration of gas usage. By concentrating on such markets, BG Group has delivered double-digit volume growth on average in its distribution businesses in recent years.

Infrastructure also tends to be limited in these markets and capital investment in the networks is vital to meeting the underlying increase in demand.

BG Group is aiming to expand its footprint in both the Brazilian and Indian markets.

At MGL and GGCL, distribution volume growth was 2% and 10% respectively in 2007.

GGCL now receives about 80% of its supply from BG Group’s Panna/Mukta and Tapti fields.
