THINK Gas Launches GIS Platform for Instant PNG Availability Check, Faster Connections
THINK Gas has introduced a first-of-its-kind GIS-enabled Integrated Network Availability platform at ‘Energy Security – Driving India’s Next Wave of Gas Demand,’ hosted by the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB), in the presence of Mr. A. K. Tiwari and Mr. Jayanta Das, Members, PNGRB, along with Mr. Abhilesh Gupta, Managing Director & CEO, THINK Gas. The platform- https://gsa.think-gas.com/ - enables customers to instantly check the availability of PNG connections in their locality and apply seamlessly, simplifying access to Piped Natural Gas (PNG) amid rising demand.
Built on advanced Geographic Information System (GIS) technology, the platform integrates geospatial data into a map and manages PNG infrastructure across THINK Gas’s licensed areas. The company has already been leveraging GIS capabilities for planning, construction, and maintenance activities - monitoring connection progress right up to the PNG connection level. This AI-ready, robust Integrated Network Availability system is being extended to customers, enabling real-time access to natural gas at their fingertips while also supporting future expansion planning and enhanced customer service.
Commenting on the occasion, Mr. Abhilesh Gupta, Managing Director & CEO, THINK Gas, said, “At THINK Gas, we remain committed to leveraging technology to enhance customer experience and accelerate access to cleaner fuels. With the launch of this GIS-integrated platform, we are proud to be the first CGD player in the sector to introduce such an exclusive solution at a time when it is needed the most. By simplifying the PNG connection journey and enabling greater transparency and convenience, this initiative marks a significant step in supporting India’s transition towards a gas-based economy.”
Through the THINK Gas website, customers can directly access the GIS-enabled registration interface. The platform allows users to search their location via address, latitude/longitude, or by simply pinning their location on a map. With a single click on the “Check Availability” option, users can instantly view PNG service status in their area and proceed with the application process.
Once the application is submitted and documentation is verified, PNG connections will be provided within 30 days. In areas where PNG is not yet available, customers can register their interest by submitting contact details, enabling the THINK Gas team to proactively reach out as infrastructure expands.
This customer-centric initiative underscores THINK Gas’s commitment to leveraging technology to enhance transparency, improve accessibility, and accelerate the adoption of cleaner energy solutions across India.
