NEW DELHI: India’s top oil and gas producer ONGC has finally put a date for the much-awaited start of production from its KG basin gas field as it sought $12 price for the fuel it plans to deliver from June 15.
Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) will produce 0.4 million standard cubic metres per day - a fraction of the planned output from the block that sits next to Reliance Industries’ prolific KG-D6 area in the Bay of Bengal, from June 15 and will ramp it up to 1.4 mmscmd by February 5, 2024, according to tender document the firm floated, seeking bids for gas sales.
ONGC’s director for production Pankaj Kumar had in March said that the firm will start production of oil from KG-DWN-98/2 or KG-D5 block in the Krishna Godavari basin by May or June this year. A small amount of gas will also flow with the oil that comes out of the reservoir lying several hundred metres below the seabed.
