Natural gas supply to several industries and power plants in East Godavari district has been affected after the GAIL gas pipeline blast at Nagaram village in East Godavari district on June 27 and most of them have halted production or generation. GAIL has stopped gas supply to Nagarjuna Fertilisers and Chemicals Ltd (NFCL) unit here and also the Spectrum power plant. The NFCL production of 4,600 tonnes of urea per day has been stopped for nearly three weeks. Spectrum as well as Reliance power plant at Samalkot had been affected and they have stopped power generation. As the kharif season is beginning, if the production is not resumed at the NFCL, it may lead to shortage of urea. Power generation at Lanco power plant at Kondapalli near Vijayawada has also been affected for want of gas.
