The CEOs of some of Australia's biggest gas companies have assured the government that domestic gas demand will be met in the future, without the need for any new regulations.


The executives travelled to Canberra for crisis talks with Malcolm Turnbull one week after the national energy market operator warned the country was on track for massive gas shortages.

The companies promised to sell more gas locally rather than export it but the prime minister has not ruled out imposing new regulations in the future if the companies fail to comply.
