印度ONGC计划用1亿美元钻17口页岩油气井

据国外媒体4月26日新德里报道，印度当地媒体《经济时报》周日（24日）援引印度环境和森林部专家鉴定委员会日前举行会议的会议记录报道说，印度国有油气巨头印度石油天然气公司（ONGC）打算花费大约1.05亿美元在本国东部和西部沿海地区钻取17口页岩油气井。

《经济时报》说，ONGC日前已建议印度环境和森林部批准其为这些勘探井准备作业范围。

ONGC的一名高级官员对《经济时报》记者说，如果这个建议获得政府批准，这将是ONGC首次在大范围内着手页岩勘探。这家国有公司将首次参与位于印度东部沿海的克里希纳-戈达瓦里盆地的页岩气勘探作业。

India's state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corp. Ltd. (ONGC) intends to spend approximately $105 million (INR 7 billion) to drill up to 17 shale oil and gas wells located on the country's east and west coasts, local media The Economic Times reported Sunday.

ONGC has approached the Ministry of Environment and Forests for its approval to prepare the terms of reference for the exploration wells, the Economic Times said, citing minutes of a recent meeting of the Ministry's Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC).

If the proposal is approved by the government, it will be the first time that ONGC has embarked on shale exploration on such a large scale, a senior company official told The Economic Times. The state-owned firm will engage in shale gas exploration in India's Krishna-Godavari basin -- located on India's east coast -- for the first time.
