Summary Information
- Operator: Reliance
- Country: India
- Location: Bay of Bengal, offshore the east coast of India
- Production start: 2009
- Partners: Niko Resources
- Type: Gas
- Estimated Reserves:
- Production Volume:
Description
- The KG-D6 field is located in the Bay of Bengal, offshore the east coast of India
- It is Reliance’s first offshore gas field development and its first underwater discovery, as well as the largest such discovery in the world in 2002
- The water depth is between 1,312 feet (400 meters) and 7,545 feet (2,300 meters)
- The field utilises a 12,000 metric ton ("MT") control riser platform
- The subsea production system is connected to an onshore gas terminal
Main features of the KG D6 enhancement plan:
- Potential investment of over $5 billion over the next three to five years to develop ~4 tcf resources.
- The field optimization plan through compression and water handling will augment current production starting 2014.
- Development of R-Series and Satellite fields: the field development plan for the R-Series project has been submitted to the Government of India for approval; this and other projects to add incremental production from 2017 and beyond.
- Drilling of a prospect in the coming months to test a possible hydrocarbon pool below the current producing field. If successful, this could provide additional reserves and be brought to production, potentially utilising the existing infrastructure.
- In addition, the KG D6 infrastructure has the potential to be a critical ‘hub’ for the east coast of India.
Contractors
- J. Ray McDermott: supply and install a 12,000 metric ton ("MT") control riser platform
- Aker Kvaerner:
- Engineering, procurement and construction for a complete subsea production system
- subsea trees, manifolds, steel tube umbilicals and power cables, controls system and associated connections to tie the subsea production system to an onshore gas terminal
- Design, engineering, partly fabrication of full stream on shore Hydrate Inhibition unit
- Universalpegasus: Technical supervision of the engineering from FEED through detail design and surveillance during the procurement and construction phases
- Engineering, procurement and construction for a complete subsea production system
- Mustang: Concept, front-end engineering design and detailed engineering for its gas compression system and associated facilities
- FoundOcean: Grouting for Control & Riser
- KWsubsea: Review and verification of lateral buckling and pipe walking issues
History
- 2002 - KG D6 Gas Field discovered
- 2007 - McDermott awarded platform contract
- 2009 - First gas started flowing
- 2010 - Mustang chosen to perform concept, front-end engineering design and detailed engineering for its gas compression system and associated facilities
