A government controlled panel has accorded approval to Reliance Industries' (RIL) Revised Field Development Plan (FDP) for MA oilfield in KG-D6 block.
As part of the FDP, RIL will drill one gas well and convert two six oil wells into gas wells on the MA oilfield to raise production. A revised FDP for the currently producing Dhirubhai-1 & 3 (D1&D3) gas fields was submitted to the block oversight panel called the Management Committee in August 2012.
RIL is the operator of the KG-D6 block with 60 per cent stake. UK's BP Plc holds the remaining 30 pr cent stake and Niko holds 10 per cent stake.
