Ramanathapuram, 3rdDecember2020:AG&P,
the global downstream LNG and gas logistics company, today announced the
opening of the first twoCompressed Natural Gas (CNG) stations in HPCL at
Semmamdam, Rameswaram,Ramanathapuram, and IOCL at Senthil filling station atMandapam
road, near GSM mall, Ramnathapuramunder its brand AG&P Pratham. Aligned with the Government’s missionto
transition to greener and smarter fuels, the AG&P Pratham stationwillprovide almost any vehicle,
including cars, auto-rickshaws and heavy-duty transit vehicles such as buses and
trucks,accessto CNG, for the very first
time.
CNG offers compelling economics for vehicle-owners. CNG is a
significantly lower-cost fuel compared to petrol and diesel. CNGhelps vehicle
owners generate considerable savings as it offers markedly improved mileage, a
reduction in maintenance costs and superior efficiency.
Petrol costs INR 80-90 per liter and gives a mileage of 14-17 km per
liter. CNG prices range from INR 50-60 per kg anda
CNG-fueled car can run up to 20-25 km per kg, offering mileage that is 30 -35%
more compared to petrol cars. With the savings generated on daily refueling in addition to
the lower maintenance costs, it results in savings for vehicle-owners of
approximately INR 2,000-3,000 every week, depending on the kilometers travelled.
Auto-rickshaw drivers and taxi
and car rental owners, for both AC and non-AC car models, report up to a 55%
increase in their savings after switching from petrol to CNG. Furthermore, CNG
is safer
than traditional fuels. It has the strongest safety record,
becauseof
its non-toxic and lighter-than-air quality that causes it to disperse andthus
reduce the risk of fire. And, it is non-polluting.
Speaking
at the inauguration of the first twoCNG stations in Ramanathapuram, Tamil Nadu,
Manish Goswami, Chief Operations
