ONGC Tripura produced 1,675 Million Standard Cubic Metres (MMSCM) in 2022-23, the highest ever
The ONGC Tripura Asset has recorded the highest-ever annual gas production at 1,675 Million Standard Cubic Metres (MMSCM) in the northeastern state for 2022-23 FY breaking all its previous records, a senior official said on Friday.
Prior to this, the maximum amount of natural gas produced by ONGC in the northeastern state was during 2020-21 FY, when the company registered a gas output of 1,634 MMSCM, media reports said.
“Oil and gas exploration is a risky business, where the outputs do not always tally with the inputs and there are so many moving parts and involvement of technology at every step of the way. We are happy that the ONGC Tripura Asset has managed to pull it off despite inherent challenges”, media reports said quoting the official.
He said to achieve record production and also to sustain a high level of output in the coming days, a lot of operational initiatives were set in motion in the past couple of years such as installation of plunger lifts, mobile separators and regular activation of low-pressure wells.
The official also said that this feat is a fitting testament to the unwavering commitment and industry of all the ONGC ‘energy soldiers’ working for the energy security of the nation.
