Domestic natural gas output increases over 18% in July

Domestic natural gas production increased 18.4% to 2,892 million standard cubic metre (mscm) in July on a year-on-year (y-o-y) basis, mainly due to higher production from Reliance Industries and BP’s ultra-deep-water field in the KG-D6 Block of the Krishna Godavari basin on the east coast.

The output had fallen 8.1% y-o-y to 28,670.6 mscm in FY21.
