Hindustan Oil Exploration Company (HOEC) has announced both the wells D-1 and D-2 have been individually brought online for production after successfully addressing the technical issues faced during pre-commissioning operations.
Gas sales to GSPC commenced from ONGC’s Gas Processing Terminal at Hazira. Prior to commencement of sales, gas produced from well D-2 was processed to meet the specifications and packed into ONGC pipeline from 31 May 2022 onwards.
Subsequently, gas transportation agreement (GTA) between ONGC and HOEC was executed on 3 June 2022.
Presently, D-1 Oil well on production is being flowed at lower rates for safe stabilisation of all operational parameters. Produced oil is being transferred through pipeline to a HOEC group-owned Floating Storage Offloading vessel (FSO).
Processed gas is being exported through the ONGC pipeline network to its Hazira Gas Processing Terminal.
ONGC redelivers B-80 gas into the flagship HVJ pipeline owned by GAIL. GSPC then offtakes the B-80 gas to deliver it to the end consumers through its pipeline network.
HOEC is the first Indian private operator to complete a greenfield development in Mumbai Offshore Region.
