Gas pipeline fire: RIL restores gas supply
Reliance Industries has restored the supply of gas in Sadasivapet, Telangana after the damage of a trunk pipeline and subsequent fire.
The company is now in the process of assessing the damage.
Fire had broken out in the wee hours of Sunday in the 1,375 km-long natural gas pipeline at Sadasivapet in Medak district. The supply had been stopped for nearly three days due to repair works.
“The actual amount of gas lost in fire is still being assessed and is likely to be a fraction of what has been reported (in a section of media),” a company statement said.
The pipeline transports the gas from its KG-D6 field in Kakinada to Bharuch in Gujarat for supplying it to RIL customers.
