Mumbai HighMumbai High is an offshore oilfield off the coast of Mumbai. As of 2004, it supplies 14% of India's oil requirement and accounts for about 38% of all domestic production. The oil operations are run by India's Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC). Bombay High field was discovered by a Russian and Indian oil exploration team operating from the seismic exploration vessel Academic Arkhangelsky during mapping of the Gulf of Cambay in 1964-1967. The naming of the field is attributed to a team including Mr. M. Krishnamurthy, from a survey run in 1965 analysed in the Rashmi building in Peddar Road, Mumbai. The first offshore well was sunk in 1974. (source:ONGC Special Report on URL: http://www.ongc.net checked Jan 2005)
