Assam floods: Efforts to douse blaze at Oil India’s Baghjan gas well hampered due to flooding

PSU major Oil India Ltd (OIL) on Sunday said its efforts to douse a blaze at its damaged gas well in Assam’s Baghjan have been severely hampered with rising floodwater level at the site.

Although the preparation work at the main well site was completely hit, some civil works were carried out during the day for creating passages to it, the company said in a statement.
