I am posting a letter (e-mail) that I received from ananthar@crystal {with his permission, of course} that was related to the articles that sivan@aero and I posted earlier and jeff@rtech posted later (at least that's how ut-ngp got them). > From: wisc-crys.arpa!uwvax!ananthar@seismo.UUCP (Ap Anantharaman) > Message-Id: <8507081711.AA25817@wisc-crys.arpa> > To: ut-ngp!sunil@ut-sally.UUCP > > ... India is producing oil from the Bombay High , But the oil is of such > quality that it cannot be processed in the refineries which we have. I > think they contain a higher content of sulphur. So most of it is exported. > But even if we were able to process that crude, still we would have to > import oil for our own use. Also most of the natural gas which is being > produced at Bombay High is flared since we cannot transaport it and make use > of it. It is with that purpose that the proposed gas pipeline is being > constructed to supply the gas to power and fertiliser stations being built in > Maharashtra, Gujarat etc,. India is expected to become self-sufficient > if the present rate of oil exploration and discovery continues by 1990.
