ONGC has assumed operational control of Well Mori-5 after an incident. A blowout control plan is finalized, and efforts are underway to manage the situation. Environmental impact is being monitored, and ONGC is coordinating with authorities.

The market read

The announcement details an operational incident and the company's response, without immediate positive or negative financial implications mentioned. The focus is on managing the situation and minimizing impact.

Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC) has taken operational control of Well Mori-5 in Irusumanda Village, Malkipuram Mandal, following an incident at the site. The company's senior management, including Director (Technology & Field Services) Vikram Saxena, and the Crisis Management Team (CMT) are overseeing the situation.

Excavation for a temporary canal from an irrigation source is complete, enabling the deployment of high-capacity firewater pumps. These pumps have reached the wellsite and are being positioned. A detailed blowout control plan has been finalized, and initial efforts have resulted in a gradual reduction of flame intensity and size, with the flame being directed vertically.

ONGC is actively monitoring air quality, noise levels, and nearby water bodies to mitigate environmental impact within a 600-meter radius. The company is maintaining close coordination with district and police administrations, local authorities, and the media to ensure transparency and an effective response, prioritizing the highest safety and environmental standards.
