Cairn Oil & Gas, part of the Vedanta Group, has successfully installed the country’s first-ever Sub-Sea Template (SST) on the West Coast, marking a major engineering milestone in the Indian upstream sector.
The installation was carried out in the offshore Ambe block in the Gulf of Cambay as part of a Conductor Supported Platform (CSP) development. Notably, the operation was executed using a jack-up rig — the first such deployment for sub-sea template installation in Indian offshore waters.
