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.
