Cairn India, even before completing its Rs 5500 crore worth ambitious crude pipeline project, has invited global expression of interest (EOI) for single-point mooring (SPM) near Bhogat, as mentioned in some media report.
Earlier, Cairn India was forced to suspend its work on 74-km Salaya-Bhogat stretch of the planned crude pipeline in Jamnagar, following protest by locals and also as it lacked the `Right of Usage', which is necessary for carrying out work over land owned and occupied by local owners. The company has informed its contractor L&T to suspend work on the project and close its camp at Khambhaliya.
Cairn, which currently produces close to 175,000 barrels of oil per day (BoPD) from its three oil fields in Rajasthan, desperately required the pipeline to discharge production and supply it to refineries. However, once the Salaya-Bhogat stretch of the pipeline is completed, crude from the Rajasthan oil fields could be supplied to all the coastal refineries, reducing the heavy import bill to that extend.
