ONGC announced Heera-Uran pipeline leak

A suspected leakage on the Heera - Uran Gas pipeline from ONGC’s western offshore Heera Field was observed yesterday morning. The leakage site is about 5 Nautical Miles from BFL (Bombay Floating Lights).

ONGC has immediately taken up repair of leakage. In the meantime, the gas line has been depressurised. This will lead to temporary curtailment of about 0.5 mmscmd (million standard cubic meters per day) gas to consumers from Uran processing plant.

The pipeline will be made fully operational within a week’s time.
