Reliance Industries and its foreign partners BP and Niko Resources have commenced fresh drilling at the D1 and D3 fields, the mainstay of the KG-D6 block, hoping to increase the block´s output. Production at the KG-D6 block is currently hovering around a dismal 11 mmscmd per day, a far cry from the peak of over 69 mmscmd achieved in early 2010. According to sources, RIL, together with its partners, last week began what is called sidetrack drilling in D1-D3, which will cost $60 million to complete.
