Reliance to supply 40% of India's gas, oil!
September 22, 2008
Highlights of initial production of hydrocarbons at KG-D6:
The field produces sweet crude of 42O API which can be processed by any refinery in the country.
From the time of its discovery, RIL has started production of oil in KG-D6 in just over two years making it one of the fastest green-field deep water oil development projects in the world.
This production has been achieved against challenges like difficult ocean conditions, lack of adequate sub-sea data, low sea bed temperature (5O C), severe supply chain constraints and shortage of technical manpower. The KG-D6 Block is located in the Bay of Bengal at a water depth of 8000 ft. and 50 Kms from the nearest coast of Kakinada in the state of Andhra Pradesh.
