Pushing the boundaries of offshore engineering at India Drilling & Exploration Conference (IDEC).

Our Petroleum Engineer, Dhruvi Mishra, took centre stage at The India Drilling & Exploration Conference (IDEC) 2026 which provided a valuable platform for knowledge exchange, collaboration, and insights into emerging technologies and evolving best practices shaping the sector.

Her technical paper presentation on ‘Rigless Annulus Barrier Placement Methodology for Complex Offshore Completion Wells’, showcasing a practical, field-proven approach to tackling complex offshore challenges—underscoring our focus on precision, innovation, and ex*****on—bagged the Excellent Presentation Award. The paper was recognised for both the strength of the methodology and the clarity of its delivery, by a distinguished jury of industry leaders and experts.

Dhruvi’s achievement reinforces our continued commitment to nurturing technical talent and providing opportunities to showcase their expertise on leading industry platforms.

A new high flows from Hazarigaon, Assam as we turn potential into performance with precision.

During the Extended Well Testing (EWT), the asset recorded its highest-ever gas output this month, enhancing domestic supply across Northeast India.

This progress is driving increased cleaner fuel access for tea estates through Assam Gas Company Limited (AGCL), compressed natural gas mobility in Guwahati and supply to Numaligarh Refinery Limited (NRL). All while ensuring zero routine flaring alongside efficient resource utilisation.

Kudos to the team for achieving this milestone through focused ex*****on, strong collaboration, and operational discipline, reinforcing our commitment to advancing India’s energy security.

Our leadership team led by Jim Johnny Gast, Interim CEO, recently visited the Ravva operations site on the East Coast. During the visit, they engaged closely with site teams, gaining insights into the asset’s legacy, production journey, and ongoing projects, while discussing the roadmap ahead.

The tour covered a visit to the offshore platform and our latest exploration site in the region. Our CEO and other leaders interacted with business partners on site to reinforce Cairn, Vedanta’s commitment to safe and responsible operations.

The young talent at site shared their experiences, and in-turn were given an overview on the company’s demerger strategy and vision, and how they can make a meaningful contribution to unlock opportunities for growth.

The visit concluded with a tour of our vast green mangroves, home to thousands of migratory birds and endangered species – a shining example of our strong commitment to protecting biodiversity.

Ravva remains key to our efforts of advancing India’s energy Aatmanirbharta.

Where nature is nurtured, progress finds deeper purpose.

Guttala Satya Lavanya from our Ravva site takes us through the asset’s scenic green landscape, this World Environment Day. Ravva is a shining example of the coexistence of biodiversity and responsible oil & gas operations. Through her lens, we are reminded that conserving ecosystems is integral to sustainable growth and India’s journey towards Energy Aatmanirbharta.

Every sapling planted, every drop saved and every resource recovered carries a promise to protect the planet we share.

Across our sites and neighbouring communities, we have achieved ~25% reduction in absolute carbon emissions over the last five years through decarbonisation efforts. We are expanding green cover through mangrove conservation and greenbelt development, and have completed plantation of 800,000 saplings.

On World Environment Day, these actions stand alongside our larger focus on lowering emissions, conserving water, improving recycling and advancing circularity through responsible resource recovery.

Together, these steps take us closer to our Net Zero Carbon ambition while contributing to India’s energy security.
