ONGC has commissioned two projects worth Rs 6,000 crore to add 7.5 million tons of oil production and 1 billion cubic meters of gas production.
The State Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) has put into operation two projects worth Rs 6,000 crore to add 7.5 million tons of oil output and 1 billion cubic meters of gas production over the life of the project. Mumbai High mines, as it doubles efforts to increase productivity from mature mines and aging fields.
An expenditure of Rs 3,740crore was made on a state-of-the-art 8-foot water jet rig, as part of the Cao South Mumbai IV redevelopment, while Rs 2,292.46 was spent on the marginal part. of the Cluster of 8 companies said in a statement.
“The two projects will lead to an increase of 7.5 million tons of oil and more than 1 BCM of gas,” he said.
Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri dedicated two major projects to the nation in the west seas on April 23. He was accompanied by Chairman Alka Mittal, Director (T&FS) OP Singh and Director General. (Offshore) Pankaj Kumar.
“The Minister thanked the ONGC team for the implementation of the two projects. He is working to bring more oil and gas to ONGC’s financial resources and adopt accelerated exploration activities. Requested to continue to strengthen. “
State-of-the-art 8-legged water infusion and living quarter platform is now part of Mumbai High South Redevelopment Phase IV as part of the implementation of the Low Salt Water Attack (LSWF) process, Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). rice field. Pilot project on total capital expenditure, set up from 3,740 rupees.
The project will bring additional benefits of 3.2 million tonnes of oil and 0.571 BCM of gas.
Government officials on this new project:-
“This is India’s first offshore EOR project. The concept envisions using a seawater desalination plant to reduce the salinity of infused seawater to levels of 8,250 ppm. The LSWF mechanism includes complex crude oil-brine lock (COBR) interactions to improve both microscopic and macroscopic displacement efficiencies, “said a government initiative. Of the total of 45 large pumps/packages in the project, 42 large pump packs were manufactured in India. The structure used 40,000 tonnes of structural steel, sufficient to build five Eiffel Towers.
The energy recovery unit for energy saving reduces CO2 emissions by 8314 tons per year and reduces carbon dioxide emissions.
The Cluster 8 Marginal Field Development Project in Mumbai High was carried out at a total cost of Rs 2,292.46. The project will produce 4.38 million tonnes of oil and 0.464 BCM of gas.
These fringe fields were discovered in 2017-18 and 2018-19. CO2 reduction system was implemented offshore for the first time as part of the project. According to the statement, oil and gas are emitted through FPSO (Floating Production Storage and Offtake).
