This collaboration aims to enhance field operations through advanced technology integration, particularly leveraging TGS’ Prediktor Data Gateway within Aker BP‘s digital ecosystem.

The integration is expected to serve as a process data server, expanding the existing cooperation between TGS and Aker BP. This partnership highlights TGS’ focus on innovative solutions in the oil and gas sector.

Meanwhile, ONGC has also announced plans to explore the establishment of mini-liquefied natural gas (LNG) plants in India. This initiative aims to utilise natural gas from wells in areas without pipeline connectivity, enhancing domestic supply and meeting consumer demand.

These mini-LNG plants will convert underground gas into LNG by supercooling it to -160°C. The produced LNG will be transported via cryogenic trucks to the nearest pipeline, where it will be re-gasified and fed into the network.
