<div>Natural gas supplies from Reliance Industries' KG-D6 block to power plants has completely stopped after output from the eastern offshore fields dropped to an all-time low.<br /><br />Beginning this week, none of the 25 power plants that were allocated gas from KG-D6 fields, are getting any supplies, industry sources said.<br /><br />This follows KG-D6 output dipping to an all-time low of 17.3 million standard cubic meters per day (mmscmd) this week.<br /><br />Of this, about 15.2 mmscmd was supplied to top priority urea-making fertiliser plants and about 2 mmscmd was consumed by state-owned GAIL India Ltd's LPG extraction units.<br /><br />The rest was used to fire the East-West pipeline that transports the fuel from its landfall point at Kakinada in Andhra Pradesh to Brauch in Gujarat.<br /><br />This left no gas for power plants, which are placed third on the priority list of consumers receiving KG-D6 gas.<br /><br />A RIL spokesperson could not be immediately reached for comments.<br /><br /><br />(PTI)</div>
