Dr. Ajay Kumar

Chairman & Managing Director Fox Petroleum

Dr. Ajay Kumar (PhD) is on a mission to make India no dark zone, for his vision is to cater for the needs of gas in India. With almost 21 years of experience in the oil and gas sector, and hence  he firmly believes that petroleum products are not for solace, it's light for life and oxygen to the economy, rather a country is an importer or a producer. Oil and natural gas are major industries in the energy market and play an influential role in the global economy as the world's primary fuel source. The processes and systems involved in producing and distributing oil and gas are highly complex, capital-intensive, and require state-of-the-art technology. Historically, natural gas has been linked to oil, mainly because of the production process or upstream side of the business. Dr. Kumar, accepts new technology and always gives new ideas of gas exploration a platform. Because it is a capital-intensive business, his new idea is to fund some proposals globally for the future of gas markets. Hence Fox has entered into the Capital market having a presence in currently – Sydney, Brazil, South Africa and Europe & London. He is very enthusiastic about global energy transition dependency on Natural Gas to reduce SOx and NOx value in the environment.
