据ETEnergyWorld 4月26日新德里报道，信实工业有限公司（RIL）和英国石油公司今天宣布，位于东海岸KG-D6区块的Satellite Cluster气田开始投产。
两家公司一直在KG D6区块开发三个深水天然气开发项目--R Cluster、Satellite Cluster和MJ--预计到2023年将总共生产约3000万立方米/日（10亿立方英尺/日）的天然气，以满足印度高达15%的天然气需求。
The Satellite Cluster是继2020年12月启动的R Cluster之后，三个开发项目中第二个即将投入生产的项目。两家公司在一份声明中表示，The Satellite Cluster原计划于2021年中期开始投产。
该油田距离印度东海岸Kakinada现有陆上终端约60公里，水深达1850米。该油田将利用总共五口井从四个储层中开采天然气，预计天然气产量将达到600万立方米/日。
R Cluster和Satellite Cluster将占印度目前天然气产量的20%。第三个KG D6开发项目MJ预计将在2022年下半年投产。
这些天然气开发项目将分别利用KG D6区块中现有的枢纽基础设施。RIL是该区块的运营商，拥有66.67%的参与权益，BP持有33.33%的参与权益。
