Reliance Industries closes 4 wells in KG-D6 gas field

30 Nov 2011 Evaluate

Reliance Industries (RIL) has closed four wells A2, B1, B2 and B13, in its flagship KG-D6 gas fields off the east coast because of high water ingress leading to output dipping to 41 million standard cubic metres per day (mmscmd). As per the production report filed by RIL with the Oil Ministry, Dhirubhai-1 and 3 (D1 and D3) gas fields and the MA oilfield in the KG-DWN-98/3, or KG-D6, block in the Bay of Bengal produced 41.06 mmscmd of gas in the week ending November 13, 2011.

Out of the 22 wells planned in Phase-I of D-1 and D-field development, 18 wells have been drilled and completed so far. Of these, 14 wells were put on production, while four wells were kept closed due to high water cut and sanding issues. However, Minister of State for Petroleum and Natural Gas in August informed Parliament that output from KG-D6 was short of the 70.39 mmscmd (61.88 mmscmd from D1&D3 and 8.5 mmscmd from MA field) level envisaged by now as per the field development plan approved in 2006.

Earlier in March, RIL had outperformed the targets when it crossed 54 mmscmd from D1&D3 gas fields, before fall in pressure, water ingress and thinner-than-expected reservoirs resulted in a drop in production.
