ONGC has launched four new advanced cementing units in Ahmedabad, aiming for better technology and environmental sustainability. Cementing is the process of securing a casing cylinder with cement after it is placed in an oil well.
These new cementing units feature cutting-edge technology to improve performance, quality, and environmental standards. Their automation capabilities, including automatic operation and detailed data recording, represent significant improvements in efficiency and safety.
From a technical and operational standpoint, these units are equipped with the latest slurry mixing system which provides cement slurry of better consistency, whose parameters can be controlled with greater precision than the older version of Cementing units.
The new mixing system in the new cementing units is capable of being operated in auto mode (where the desired parameters are achieved by automatic control of the system) and is a great leap over the completely manual system of older cementing units.
The induction of these units aligns with ONGC’s commitment to sustainable practices. The new units are BS-6 compliant, reiterating ONGC’s dedication to environmental stewardship.
The Ahmedabad Cementing Services now equipped with these innovative units, stands ready to support drilling and work-over operations with enhanced technical expertise and innovation. In FY23-24, the unit successfully executed 645 jobs, underscoring its indispensable role in operational efficiency and project succe
