The India PavilionA bird’s eye view of the india pavilion

The 22nd World Petroleum Congress, an international premier  event of the oil & gas industry, was held in Istanbul, Turkey from 9th to  13th July 2017. The India Pavilion was set up under the aegis of the Ministry  of Petroleum & Natural Gas. ONGC had been entrusted the responsibility of  organizing and setting up the India Pavilion at the WPC.

The design of the India Pavilion evoked the national bird,  the peacock, and was centred around the theme “A billion people… a billion  opportunities”. The vast open design of the India pavilion had a very welcoming  appeal that invited foreign investors to invest in the hydrocarbon sector in  India. Built on an area of more than 2000 sqft, the exhibit consisted of kiosks  representing ONGC, OIL, GAIL, HPCL, BPCL, IOCL, EIL, DGH and Invest India.

The pavilion was inaugurated on 10 July 2017 by Mr.  Dharmendra Pradhan, Hon’ble Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas, who was  accompanied by Mr. D K Sarraf, CMD, ONGC and Mr. Sanjiv Singh, CMD, IOCL. The  Bharatanatyam and Kathak performances stole the show during the inauguration.

Over the course of the WPC, the pavilion was well received  by delegates, exhibitors and visitors, who were attracted by the unique design  and by the prospect of “Make in India”. Among the notable visitors were Mr. Fatih  Dönmez, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources, Turkey  and Mr. Besim Şişman, Chairman & CEO of Turkish Petroleum AO.
