Blowout at ONGC well in Konaseema triggers panic; people of several villages evacuated

A blowout at ONGC's Mori-5 well in Irusumanda village of BR Ambedkar Konaseema district on Monday

The incident occurred during repair operations being carried out by Deep Industries Ltd, ONGC's Production Enhancement Contractor (PEC).

According to officials, the blowout occurred while drilling work was underway, releasing large volumes of gas mixed with crude oil. The gas spread across the site in a thick, fog-like cloud, initially mistaken for mist by workers. Soon after, the leaked gas ignited, producing towering flames and dense smoke that engulfed parts of the village and surrounding fields.
