5. Other Highlights
i. ONGC registers 14th Clean Development Mechanism Project with UNFCCC
ONGC once again demonstrated its commitment to environment with the registration of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) project “Replacement of Main Oil Line (MOL) Pumps at Neelam & Heera Asset” under Kyoto Protocol. Formal communication has been received from United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) confirming successful registration of the project – vide reference number 10302. The project would save approximately 5694 MWh of power consumption and contributes to an estimated Green House Gas Emission Reduction to the tune of 10,539 tonne of CO2 per annum.
ii. Minister launches National Seismic Program at Mahanadi Basin
Hon’ble Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Petroleum and Natural Gas Mr. Dharmendra Pradhan inaugurated the National Seismic Program (NSP) at Taranga in Balasore district of Odisha on 12 October 2016. The NSP aims to undertake a fresh appraisal in all sedimentary basins across India, especially where no/scanty data is available, to have better understanding of the hydrocarbon potential of India. Under this program, ONGC has been assigned to carry out 2D seismic API of approx. 40,835 Line Kilometer (LKM) in onland part of 26 sedimentary basins.
iii. ONGC ECPF Trust get ISO Certification for Quality Management Systems
Adding to an impressive list of “firsts”, ONGC ECPF Trust has become arguably the first Provident Fund Trust in India to get ISO Certification ISO 9001:2008 for Quality Management Systems. The ISO Certificate was presented to the Board of Trustees by the Trust team during the 152nd meeting of the Trust.
