Reliance Industries (RIL) and BP said on Friday that gas production has started from the ultra-deep water gas field in the KG-D6 Block of the Krishna Godavari basin on the east coast of India.
The companies are jointly developing three gas fields in the offshore KG-D6 block. Of these, the R Cluster field — which is expected to reach plateau gas production of about 12.9 million standard cubic metres per day (mscmd) in 2021 — now becomes the first project to come online.
