New Delhi : State-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corp will cut gas production from its biggest fields in the Arabian sea by about 40% as it carries out repair work on a pipeline that carries the gas to shore.
ONGC produces 33 million standard cubic meters per day of natural gas from the Bassein field in the western offshore. The gas is carried to shore by two under-sea pipelines, a 42-inch line and a 32-inch line.
The company plans to carry out repair work on the 42-inch pipeline that carries natural gas from the Bassein field to Hazira, from July 7 to 27.
