Story details

Oil India Limited has invited bids under CEG1823P27 for the charter of two DP-3 drillship units. The official scope covers drilling, testing and abandonment of exploratory wells in water depths of 500–3000 m. That range describes offshore water depth, not the drilled depth of an individual well.

Submission is listed for 16 October 2026 at 13:00. The reviewed source does not verify the timezone, so the cutoff remains a local wall-clock value without a confirmed UTC equivalent. The notice supports drilling, well testing and decommissioning activities, but does not establish the well-fluid sector. The latest official documents should be checked before preparing a bid.
