One can understand the pique of those who take great umbrage at the India-US Nuclear Deal being signed in its present form.
However, it is fallacious to state that Nuclear Power will be able to fulfil Indiaâs Total Power Needs.
India will need Natural Gas and one is shocked that there has been no âUproarâ from the Indian Intelligentsia as well as the Indian Strategic Analysts and Mandarins.
Be assured that one is not Privy to any information regarding Indiaâs Energy Requirements especially in the form of Natural Gas.
However, one can only guess that since the Qatari North Gas Fields are in a âBlocâ which also consists-adjoins the Iranian South Pars Fields it could be quite possible that the US - through the Exxon Mobile Partnership encourage Qatar to supply Natural Gas by Pipe Line or in the Form of LNG to India thus extracting Natural Gas from the a Reservoir which has access both to the Qataris and the Iranians.
It may seem-sound âOutlandishâ but far more improbable schemes have succeeded in other areas of Oil and Gas Extraction.
