石油设备网讯 据道琼斯6月12日消息，印度信实工业有限公司及其合资伙伴英国石油公司(BP)已经批准了在印度东海岸开发一个天然气区块的计划。
该天然气区块将是该合资企业在该地区开发的第三个此类区块。两家公司周二晚间在一份联合声明中表示，开发这三个区块的总投资将为50亿美元，但没有提供投资的细目。
声明称:“这些项目加在一起，一旦全面开发，将在2020年至2022年期间，带来约10亿立方英尺/日的新天然气供应。”
这三个天然气区块位于Krishna-Godavari盆地，被称为KG D6项目。
印度每天消耗的天然气超过50亿立方英尺，政府的目标是到2022年将这一数字翻一番。声明称，KG D6综合开发的天然气预计将有助于减少印度对进口燃料的依赖。

Reliance Industries Ltd. (500325.BY) and its joint-venture partner BP PLC (BP.LN) have approved a plan to develop a natural gas block off India's east coast.
The natural gas block will the third such block that will be developed by the joint venture in the area. The total investment for developing the three blocks will be $5 billion, the two companies said in a joint statement late Tuesday, without providing a breakdown of the investment.
"These projects together, when fully developed, will bring about 1 billion cubic feet a day of new domestic gas onstream, phased over 2020-2022," the statement said.
The three gas blocks are in the Krishna-Godavari basin and are known as KG D6 project.
India consumes more than 5 billion cubic feet a day of natural gas and the government aims to double the figure by 2022. Natural gas from the KG D6 integrated development is expected to help reduce the country's dependence on imported fuel, the statement said.
