ONGC, BP, and Reliance Explore Shared $1 Billion Offshore Gas Facility
ONGC, BP, and Reliance Industries are considering a shared offshore infrastructure facility worth $1 billion in the Mahanadi basin to extract natural gas and condensate from deepwater and ultra-deepwater fields. Proposed by the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, the plan aims to reduce costs and improve efficiency by pooling resources. The facility, which could be a floating or fixed offshore installation, is in preliminary discussions, with development expected to take three to four years.
