NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will meet executives from energy majors BP PLC BP.L and Exxon Mobil Corp XOM.N in the United States next week to discuss investment opportunities, the foreign ministry said on Thursday.

The energy hungry nation, which has been increasing imports of crude from the United States, is looking at raising oil imports from Russia, amid uncertainty over supplies after an attack on Saudi Arabian facilities last weekend.

Modi will also attend a separate investment event with executives from JPMorgan Chase & Co JPM.N, Lockheed Martin LMT.N, Mastercard Inc MA.N and Walmart Inc WMT.N, Foreign Secretary Vijay Gokhale said.
