PETRONAS Sues Adani Energy

Petroliam Nasional Berhad, or Petronas is suing Adani Energy Ltd, subsidiary of Adani group for breach of contract in agreement to buy and sell liquefied natural gas, or LNG. The legal proceedings claimed $100 million in losses, way in excess of the Adani Energy revenue which may bring it to bankruptcy.

Petronas subsidiary, Asean LNG Trading Co. Ltd, has initiated legal action due to Adani Energy failure to service the contract to muster space at a cargo terminal in Gujarat in 2007 to take delivery of LNG. Asean LNG initiated arbitration proceedings against Adani Energy in London Court of International Arbitration in January, claiming damages for failure to adhere to the agreement.

India's rapidly expanding economy which a study conducted claims that for India to sustain a growth of 8-9% in gross domestic product its energy supply has to fourfold creating a massive influx of demand of LNG and other energy derivatives into the country.
