Bangalore, Nov 12: The Fourth Renewable Energy and Distributed Generation Task Force (REDGTF) meeting of Asia Pacific Partnership on Clean Development on Climate (APPCDC) will begin here today.
Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) has pocketed two oil blocks in Iraq’s Kurdish region.
RIL has signed up a deal for the blocks ‘Rovi’ and ‘Sarta’ in northern Iraq with the autonomous Kurdish Regional Government (KRG).
The blocks measuring 450-500 sq km have an oil-bearing structure of around 80%, and Reliance is confident of making a discovery soon. RIL paid a signing amount of $15.5-17.5 million for the two blocks.
According to the deal, the RIL’s wholly owned arm Reliance Exploration and Production DMCC would be served as an operator.
