AHMEDABAD: A late evening fire at a well of the ONGCAhmedabad asset on Wednesday claimed the lives of two contractual workers while four others sustained severe burn injuries, official sources said on Thursday.
“A fire broke out around 2030 hours in an ONGCNSE 0.56 % well at Nandej (Well #6) near Ahmedabad while workover (repair and maintenance) operations were being carried out,” the Oil & Natural Gas Corp said in a statement.
While the company drafted a team of officials to provide medical aid and four fire tenders to control the fire, five fire tenders from district fire services were deployed.
