Improving Road Infrastructure and Proposed Huge Investments in Pipelines Bode Well For the Liquid and Gaseous Cargo Transportation Market in IndiaMUMBAI, India - Rapidly rising consumption of petroleum oil and gases, together with liquid chemicals, is driving the market for transportation of liquid and gaseous cargo in India.

More than half of the liquid and gaseous cargo in India was transported domestically by road in 2008; but with growing consumption, pipelines are expected to gain share from road and railways in the POL segment. The main reasons behind this are higher safety, lower rates of pilferage, and faster transportation time. |
