UK explorer Cairn Energy, which in August this year declared commercial its Gauri gas field in block CB/OS-2 offshore India’s western Gujarat state, has submitted its development plans to the Indian government, a Cairn source said. Cairn hopes to build a production platform and pipelines at the Gauri field in 2003, and bring gas ashore in 2004, he said. The Gauri field will be tied in to Cairn’s nearby Lakshmi field, which earlier this month began first commercial gas deliveries. Gas output from Gauri is projected at 50-60,000 mcf/day, and Cairn would begin approaching potential buyers next month, the source said.
