Cairn may be sitting on a big gas find in Rajasthan.

Rajasthan may come to the rescue of gas-based industries, with Cairn India's Barmer fields showing significant blue fuel prospects. Though the company has not disclosed the potential, it is working on a new plant at the Raageshwari Gas Terminal to process up to 8.5 mmscmd (million standard cubic metres a day) of the fuel. This, according to industry trackers, points to significant gas resources in the block, south of the Barmer acreage.
