Essar Oil is reportedly expected to supply gas to Matrix Fertilisers and
Chemicals for its proposed new urea project in West Bengal.
Essar is likely to begin gas production from below coal seams called Coal Bed
Methane (CBM), from its Raniganj block in West Bengal in early-2010.
Matrix has proposed setting up of a greenfield gas based ammonia-urea project
in Burdwan district, based on CBM gas. Land has already been identified by the
state government for the project.
