Executive Summary

Introduction

Vedanta Ltd. (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) has been allocated hydro-carbon Block namely RJ-ONHP-2017/1 by

Government of India under the Revenue Sharing Contract (RSC) for exploration and exploitation of hydrocarbon.

A Revenue Sharing Contract (RSC) was signed between the Government of India (GoI) and Vedanta Ltd on 1st

October 2018. Vedanta Limited (Cairn Oil and Gas) is currently contributing to more than 20 per cent of India’s

current crude oil production. Block encloses an area of 542 Sq. Km.

Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil and Gas) proposes to carry out exploration and appraisal well drilling and early

production of oil and gas in the Block. In case of a discovery (ies), the exploratory and appraisal well(s) would be

tested for extended duration by flowing hydrocarbons to ascertain the reservoir parameters and assess the quality

and commercial viability. The exploratory and appraisal wells would be drilled to explore the reservoirs in the range

of 1750m to 5000m.

The proposed exploratory and appraisal drilling activities fall under category 1(b) of the EIA Notification, 2006 and

require Environmental Clearance (EC) from the Ministry of Environment and Forests and climate change

(MoEF&CC). The Terms of Reference for the Project have been approved by MoEF vide letter F. No ToR IA-J-

11011/80/2019-IA-II(I) dated 14th April 2019

AECOM India Private Limited, a NABET-QCI Accredited firm has been entrusted to conduct the Environmental

Impact Assessment (EIA) for the proposed Block RJ-ONHP-2017/1. The EIA study comprised of initial scoping, site

visits, environmental monitoring and surveys, conduct of Public Hearing (PH) and the preparation of draft and final

EIA-EMP reports.

Block location and Accessibility

RJ-ONHP-2017/1 block is located in Barmer districts of Rajasthan. Total area of RJ-ONHP-2017/1 block is 542

sq. km. The nearest cities from the block are Barmer(32 km-in NNW direction) which are well connected through

state highway. NH-15 & SH-28 are passing through the block.

Land Requirement

During the site selection process, all legal requirements would be considered and surface location of the exploratory

well would be finalized. Once surface drilling location is finalized, short term lease of the land would be taken from

concerned owners. If well location falls in agricultural lands or other private lands, land and crop compensation

would be provided to the land owner, and in case of govt. land, land allotment from Govt. to be applied. Initially

temporary short-term lease would be taken for 3 - 5 years for exploration purpose and in case of commercially

viable discovery of hydrocarbon resources; the land lease would be converted into long term lease up to life of the

project. The estimated land required per drill site is approximately 9ha. No forest land would be used for drilling

purpose, so forest clearance is not applicable for the Block.

Description of the project

The project includes proposed drilling of 29 onshore exploratory and appraisal wells and Setting up of Early

Production Units (EPUs)/ Quick Production Units (QPUs) for produced well fluid processing and production of up

to 12000 BOPD crude oil and associated natural gas 1.8 MMSCFD associated natural gas in RJ-ONHP-2017/1

Block located in Barmer district of Rajasthan. Block Location on SOI Toposheet is presented below.

Drill Site Preparation

Drill Site Selection –

An initial assessment of the exploratory well site would be carried out through analysis of satellite imageries. Field

surveys would be carried out to earmark the drill site location maintaining maximum possible distance from any

settlement and sensitive receptors. Ease of accessibility to the site would also be considered.

Site Preparation –

Detailed site surveys would be carried, and the boundary of the drill site earmarked. Site leveling, and excavation

works would be carried out for site preparation. Individual sites would be duly fenced to a height of about 2 m using

jingled wired fencing or Expm fencing. New approach roads to drill sites would be constructed or existing village

roads would be strengthened to provide access for the drilling equipment and machinery. If the earmarked site has

vegetation cover, clearance of vegetation is the first activity that would be undertaken during drill site construction.

Following this, the preparation and construction of drill site would involve top soil scraping and storage for future

use, elevating the drill platform by excavated material from the drill site and authorized quarry area. Reinforced

Cement Concrete (RCC) would be used for the construction of foundation system. For making foundations of the

main rig structure, cast in-situ bored under- reamed piles of specified lengths would also be used.

Rig Mobilization - After completion of the construction activities and with the provision of the basic facilities, drill

rig would be transported to the site. The drill equipments are designed as standard land rig or a “Mobile Land Rig”

type, which facilitates quick mobilization and demobilization. Rig essentially comprises of a Drilling mud system,

Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP), Cuttings disposal, Drill Cementing equipment along with utilities to supply power

(DG sets), water and fuel (HSD).

Drilling Operation

A rig would be installed at the potential site of drilling after thorough inspection for its working capability and quality

standards. Well spudding shall be the start of drilling activity. Wells would be drilled in sections, with the diameter

of each section decreasing with increasing depth. Before commencing the actual drilling, large diameter pipe

(Conductor) would be lowered into a hole and cemented/grouted. Top-hole section would be drilled to a desired

depth based on well design. After drilling top-hole section, it would be cased with a pipe called “Casing”. Once each

section of the well is completed, the drill string is lifted, and protective steel pipe or casing lowered into the well and

cemented into place. The lengths and diameters of each section of the well would be determined prior to the starting

of the drilling activities and are dependent on the geological conditions through which the well is to be drilled. This

process of drilling and casing the hole section continues until the final well depth (target) is achieved.

Drill cuttings generated from the drilling activity, would be collected and separated using a solid control system and

temporarily stored on-site in HDPE lined pits. Drilling and wash wastewater generated would also be stored at an

onsite HDPE lined pit. The water would be adequately treated in a mobile ETP to ensure conformance to the S No.

72 A (ii) Schedule I - Standards for Emission or Discharge of Environmental Pollutants from Oil Drilling and Gas

Extraction Industry of CPCB.

Hydraulic Fracturing Activity-

Hydraulic fracking may be conducted in wells with low permeability formation and the wells with low pressure.

Fracking fluid would typically be 99% water and sand (or other granulated material) and approximately 1% gelled

chemicals that would be pumped at a high rate (in excess of 20 bpm) and high pressure (up to 5000 psi) to fracture

the formation and improve the well deliverability. Sites for the wells with more than 2 fracs per well (multi-stage

fracturing) would have provision of additional space for water storage for better continuity of operations.

Well Testing & Flaring-

During the exploration and appraisal drilling, where a hydrocarbon formation is found, initial well tests (generally

about one month of duration) would be carried out to establish flow rates, formation pressure and other parameters.

However, depending on the need, based on nature of the reservoirs, the exploratory and appraisal wells would be

tested for longer/extended durations to ascertain the reservoir parameters.

Associated Facilities –

Each drill site would be provided with facilities such as drilling rig foundation and cellar pit, waste and water storage

pits, chemical storage area including fuel storages, drill cutting disposal pit, flare pit and mobile STPs. The drill

cutting and spent mud disposal pits would be provided with a HDPE lining for temporary storage. Adequate

drainage and wastewater conveyance system also would be installed.

Liquid Mud Plant (LMP)-

The Liquid Mud Plant (LMP) shall be located at suitable locations of the fields to prepare synthetic/ water-based

mud for the drilling operations.

Appraisal –

When, exploratory drilling is successful, more wells (termed as Appraisal wells) would be drilled to determine the

size and the extent of the field. The technical procedures and activities in appraisal drilling would be the same as

those employed for exploration wells Deviated or directional drilling at an angle from a site adjacent to the original

discovery well may be used to appraise other parts of the reservoir

Quick Production Unit (QPU) –

In case of commercially viable discovery, QPUs would be installed for the processing of produced well fluid

processing and early production of up to 12000 BOPD crude oil and up to 1.8 MMSCFD associated natural gas. A

QPU would be a packaged/ modular mobile unit and would mainly consists of a three-phase separator & production

heater or heater-treater, oil storage tanks, oil tanker loading system, produced water (PW) separation and disposal

system, power generation (GEG or DG), utility systems such as fuel gas, flare & Inst. Air packages, firefighting

equipment, etc. Each QPU capacity would be ~2,000 BFPD (Barrels of Fluid per Day).

Accommodation and Camp Site:

Temporary camp site (porta cabin) for the drilling of exploratory (including) appraisal wells are envisaged, which

would be dismantled after drilling of the wells. At any point of time, it is anticipated that about 50 personnel per shift

would be housed in the campsite during the well drilling campaign.

Well decommissioning

After the completion of the drilling activity, partial de-mobilization of the drilling rig and associated infrastructure

would be initiated. As discussed earlier, well testing may be carried out immediately after the drilling is completed.

The complete de-mobilization of the facilities at site would happen once well-testing completed successfully. in

case of commercially viable discovery (s) of hydrocarbons in the Block and having established the size of the

hydrocarbon field (s), proposes to immediately bring the field (s) into production using one or more of the appraisal

wells for the production of crude oil by setting up of QPU (Quick Production Unit). All other equipment, materials,

fuel and wastes would be removed from the drilling site and reused for other drilling activities or disposed as per

the applicable regulatory requirements.

If hydrocarbons are not found, a full abandonment plan would be implemented. All concrete or steel installations

would be removed to at least 1m below ground level, to ensure that there would be no protruding surface structures.

All waste at the site would be removed and the pits would be closed. The drill sites and associated sites (for camps

and liquid mud plant) would be restored to its original conditions or as required by the landowner.

Utilities and Resource Requirement

Water – Total of 102 m3 per day fresh water would be required per well. From the total water, 22 m3/day water

would be used for mud preparations, 50 m3/day would be required for drilling activities and 30 m3/day freshwater

would be used for domestic purposes including drinking, washings and domestic use. In case, required water could

not be sourced from locally available approved sources, ground water would be extracted after obtaining

permission from CGWA/ State Govt.

During early production, the installation of typical EPU/QPU unit water requirement for process, domestic

consumption, greenbelt and miscellaneous use would be15-18 m3/day.

Power – For drilling operations, the power would be provided through diesel generator (DG) sets (Camp site -

2x350 KVA (including one as standby), Drilling site - 3x1000 KVA (including one as standby) and Radio Room -

2x100 KVA (including one as standby).

For early production power requirement would be met through the State Electricity and or installation of Diesel/Gas

Engine Generator (GEG) of 1 MW output using produced natural gas and a 500 KVA DG would be used as backup

in emergency conditions.

For early production power requirement will be met through the State Electricity and or installation of Diesel/Gas

Engine Generator (GEG) of 1 MW output using produced natural gas and a 500 KVA DG will be used as backup

in emergency conditions.

Labour– It is anticipated that, at any given time, there would be about 80 - 100 personnel working on site including

technical staff, drilling crew, security staff etc.

Project Cost

The cost of the project has been estimated to be about INR 790 Crores.

Pollution Sources

Air emissions: Point source air emissions would be generated from DG sets. Fugitive emissions would occur from

vehicles involved in the drilling operations and from windblown dust from storage and staging areas within the drill

site.

Noise & Vibrations: Noise and vibration would be generated due to operation of drilling rig, DG sets and vehicles.

Liquid wastes: During the drilling phase, approximately 30-40 m3 per day of waste water would be generated from

the drilling activity and 16-25 m3 per day of domestic waste water would be generated from each drill site.

Drill cuttings & spent mud: Approximately 500-1500 Tons/well of drill cuttings from WBM, 250-500 Tons/well of

drill cuttings from SBM and 250-500 Tons/well of spent mud would be generated per site.

Existing Baseline Environment of the Project Area

Baseline information about the Block was collated by review of other published literature, site surveys, stakeholder

interactions and primary monitoring carried out during the period of March-May 2019 by EFRAC Laboratory (NABL

Accredited Laboratory).

Sub-surface Geology-

The Block is situated in Barmer district. Barmer district is underlain by intrusive rocks at the basement (Post Delhi

formation) consisting of Jalore and Siwana granite & Malani rhyolite and granite followed by Mesozoic and Tertiary

formations consisting of sandstone, shale, conglomerate. Rocks of Mesozoic era are comprised of Lathi series of

Jurassic and Abur series of Cretaceous period. Most part of the district is covered by desert sand and sand dunes.

Hydrology - No rivers that passes through the Block. In Barmer district, the only major drainage course in the area

is Luni River, which flows from Samdari, passing through Balotra. The river is ephemeral, flowing only in response

to heavy precipitation. In the year of drought there is no run off.

Hydrogeology and Groundwater Quality – Barmer district, the main water bearing formations in the district are

rhyolites and granites of post Delhi; Lathi sandstone, Tertiary sandstone and Quaternary alluvium. In Quaternary

alluvium, ground water occurs under semi confined to unconfined conditions. In semi consolidated Tertiary and

Mesozoic formations, it occurs under unconfined to confined conditions and in weathered and fractured zones in

hard rocks under phreatic conditions. Though ground water occurs in all the formations, but the most productive

aquifers are the Lathi sandstone, Barmer sandstone and Quaternary sediments. The Tertiary formation, which is

predominantly clayey and argillaceous, is not found as productive except locally in the sandstone horizon. In

general, the fractured and weathered zones in hard rocks form poor aquifers.

As reported by CGWB, in Barmer, during pre-monsoon, shallow water level varying in depth from 4.90 to 36.18

mbgl existed in Baytu, Balotra and Siwana Blocks. Deeper water levels from 52.59 to 70.95 mbgl were recorded in

Barmer, Chohtan, Dhorimanna, Sheo and Sindhari Blocks. During post monsoon, shallow water levels ranging in

depth from 4.00 to 38.07 mbgl were observed in Baytu, Balotra and Siwana Blocks. Deeper water levels from 52.99

to 71.50 mbgl depth were registered in Barmer, Chohtan, Dhorimanna, Sheo and Sindhari Blocks.

Total of 8 ground water samples have been collected and analysed for parameters as per IS:10500:2012 standards.

Concentrations of various heavy metals like mercury, lead, cadmium were found below detectable limits at all the

sampling locations. Total and Faecal Coliforms were observed below detectable limit in all the water sampled.

Climate and Meteorology - The Block experiences hot and arid climate typical of desert region. The predominant

wind direction is from west and southwest during the months of April to August and from north and northeast during

the months of September to March. The annual average wind speed was observed to be 4.8 kmph in Barmer. The

annual rainfall is about 275.8mm.

Ambient Air Quality-Ambient air quality was monitored at 8 locations (for a period of 12 week - March to May’19).

The PM10 values were exceeding NAAQS, at some stations but the average value observed to be in the range of

63.13- 67.83 µg/m3, which is typical of the region, due to occasional dust stroms during this dry period. The PM2.5,

SO2, NOx and NH3, values were in the range of 18.42- 20.9 µg/m3, 10.16-11.99 µg/m3, 34.45 – 37.42 µg/m3

respectively and well within the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). Other parameters such as lead,

CO, Benzene, VOC, HC, Ni, As and [Ba(p)] were observed to be below their detectable limits.

Ambient Noise Levels - Noise levels were monitored at 8 locations within the study area. The locations for the

noise levels are selected on the basis of locations of sensitive receptors such as health centre, educational centres,

market place etc. The day time noise levels and night time noise levels were found to be higher than the prescribed

standards of 55 and 45 dB respectively during day and night time for rural areas.

Soil Quality -Soil samples were collected from 8 locations. The soil in general indicates saline to slightly alkaline

properties in the study area. Soil texture at all locations was observed to be sandy. pH of the soil samples ranged

from 7.31 to 7.80. The concentrations of heavy metals namely cadmium, mercury, antimony was observed to below

detectable limit. The values for Zinc, Lead, Cadmium, Copper, Nickel were found to be much below soil remediation

intervention values. Arsenic values exceeded soil remediation intervention values as specified in Soil Remediation

Circular 2009 at most of the locations.

Ecology– Quadrat based survey was carried out across the Block and it was observed that major portion of the

study area comprises of stunted, thorny, spiny or prickly, trees, shrubs and perennating herbs, showing a range of

xerophytic characteristics. The most commonly found species in the region are Khejri and Ker. Few species of

avifauna were also associated with the region in which the study area is located.

Socio- Economic Conditions- A total number of 25 villages are coming under core zone area, where the proposed

wells are located. According to Census 2011, household size ranges from 5.11 to 6.85 in the core zone villages.

Mokhawa village, shows the highest population of 2488, the lowest populated village is Lalaniyon ki Dhani, with

population size of 486. The average sex ratio of the core zone villages is accounted as 904, which is marginally

higher than the sex ratio of Barmer (902). Major population in the study area are farmers by occupation, mainly two

types of agricultural crops are cultivated in this area widely, Ravi (main crop of the season millet) and Khariff (main

crop of the season cumin). Water scarcity is the main problem, faced by the villagers during dry season of the year.

Almost every village has a primary school.

Impact Assessment and Mitigation Measures

Site Selection & Land Procurement –

Impact

An area of approximately 300m X 300m would be taken on temporary short-term lease basis for the construction

of well pad (drill site) for exploratory and appraisal wells and the Quick Production unit/ Early Production unit. For

the preparation of suitable access roads connecting to well pads, accommodating OHL and other utilities in future,

a width of 30m (approx.) RoU would be required. The drill sites are planned to be located in agricultural land and

open scrub land. Their procurement for project purposes would result in loss of landowner’s income for the lease

period. The procurement of land on lease can lead to moderate impact mainly due to expectations on compensation

package.

Mitigation Measures

• During the construction of the access road adequate cross drainage structures to be provided considering the topography of the alignment.

• Levelling and grading operations would be undertaken with minimal disturbance to the existing contour, thereby maintaining the general slope of site;

• Consultations to be carried out with land owners for finalizing compensation packages;

• Compensation for standing crops to be considered.

The excavated material from the drill site should be stored (temporarily /permanently) in uncultivated

land and should be away from any drainage channel.

Site Clearance and Grading

Impact

The site preparation works at campsite and drill site may result in clearance of vegetation, dust generation and loss

of topsoil. The earthworks to be carried would typically involve excavation, levelling / grading; and rolling and

compaction.

Mitigation Measures

• Water sprinkling to be carried out, while working in proximity of agricultural fields or settlements/habitations;

• Runoff from drill sites located near ponds and catchment of tankas to be channelised through silt trap;

• If any tree felling is involved, permission from the concern department to be undertaken.

Construction of Drill Site

Impact

Construction of cellar pit, water storage pit and drilling waste storage pits would result in excavation of soil from

each site. Noise from construction activity would be generated from bull dozer, DG sets and concrete-mixing plant.

Mitigation Measures

• Temporary storage sheds to be provided for storing of construction material such as cement;

• Excavated soil to be used for construction at other project sites;

• Detailed Health & Safety Plan to be provided to all civil contractors, as part of their contract with Vedanta Limited (Division: Cairn Oil & Gas) .

Campsite Installation

Impact

The campsites would be located in the vicinity of the drill site. A typical campsite would require portable cabins to

accommodate about drilling crew and the contractor personnel. Installation of porta-cabins with associated facilities

would involve Health and Safety issues pertaining to transportation, loading - unloading of cabins and installation

of cabins.

Mitigation Measures

• Crane to be is equipped with a legible, durable load chart that shows the manufacturer's recommended load

configurations and maximum load weights; and

• Surface conditions to be examined prior to movement of crane.

EX 7

Transportation of Drilling Rig and Other Components –

Impact

Transportation of drilling rig, drilling equipment, materials and manpower would involve movement of about trailer

loads spread over days use the existing roads till they reach the access road for each well site. The potential

impacts may include congestion of roads, wear and tear of existing roads and oil leaks from vehicle maintenance

areas.

Mitigation Measures

• Movement of rig & associated machinery to be avoided to the extent possible during peak traffic hours

• All vehicles (light, medium and heavy) to be required to have valid PUC (Pollution under Check) certificate.

• Periodic maintenance of all project vehicles and machinery to be carried out.

Drilling and Well Testing

Impact

During drilling operation Water for WBM preparation would be 600 to 1000 m3/Well, for SBM preparation would be

150 to 300 m3/Well, for drilling water consumption would be 30-50 m3/day/well and water for domestic use would

be 20-30 m3/day/well.

Mitigation Measures

Water requirement for all the project activities would be sourced locally through approved/ authorized sources of

surface water and/ or ground water (e.g. PHD bore wells, privately owned bore wells, Irrigation Dept./ Water

Resources Dept. of State Govt.). In case, required water could not be sourced from locally available approved

sources, ground water would be extracted after obtaining permission from CGWA/ State Govt.

Handling, transport and storage of Chemicals and wastes

Impact

The drilling operations would involve generation of spent drilling mud, drill cuttings, waste oil, used containers, etc.

The drill site would also involve storage of hazardous chemicals and fuels which has the potential to contaminate

soil and groundwater.

Mitigation Measures

• Separate drill cutting disposal pits to be provided for WBM and SBM

• Drill pits to be provided with HDPE lining on bottom and side surfaces

• The drill cuttings from the drilling operations associated with water-based mud would be used for filling

low lying areas as a sub grade construction material in construction of well pads, etc., after testing for

hazardous characteristics and analysis. Synthetic base mud would be re-used in further drilling activities.

• Used hazardous chemical barrels and waste oil to be sent to SPCB authorized vendors

• Fuel tanks to be provided with secondary containment facilities and maintained as per statutory

requirements.

• All mixing tanks and chemical storage area to be paved and provided with secondary containment.

Air emissions

Impact

The drilling activities would lead to emissions from operation of diesel generator sets and flaring during well testing.

Fugitive dust emissions due to the proposed project would be principally associated with emissions of dust during

the site preparation. The dust generated would be primarily from the handling and transportation of fill material and

re-entrainment of dust during movement of the vehicles on unpaved roads

Mitigation Measures

• DG set emissions shall be as per CPCB standards

• Flare burner characteristics to be optimized to ensure maximum burning of hydrocarbons produced during well testing;

• In case of ground flaring to minimize the effects of flaring, the flare pit shall be made of RCC surrounded by a permanent wall of minimum 5m height (with refractory bricks), to reduce the radiation and glaring effects in the adjoining areas.

• In case of elevated flaring system: this would be designed with proper enclosure height;

• Location of the flare stack to be decided at the design stage taking into consideration nearest habitations, vegetation, public amenities or any sensitive locations

• Flaring of crude oil to be avoided, and crude oil to be effectively separated at the drill site and stored in barrels/tankers for transportation to the nearest terminal for management; and

Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

EX 8

• Proper engineering controls to ensure complete combustion of gas;

• No cold venting of natural gas would be resorted instead flaring would be done with combustion efficient elevated flare tip; and

• Location of flare stacks to be chosen considering the sensitive receptors adjoining the site

Noise Generation

Impact

The noise generation sources would include DG sets, pumps for rig and other miscellaneous equipment’s.

Mitigation Measures

• Installation of adequate engineering control on equipment and machinery (like mufflers & noise enclosures

for DG sets and mud pumps) to reduce noise levels at source, carrying out proper maintenance and

subjecting them to rigid noise control procedures.

• The DG set would be kept in an acoustic enclosure.

• Periodical monitoring of noise level within 500 mts buffer area around well pad.

• Providing Personnel Protective Equipment (PPEs) like ear plugs/muffs to workers at site.

• Undertaking periodic maintenance of vehicles to reduce noise levels

Surface water quality

Impact

Site clearance and stripping of top soil during site construction would result in an increase in soil erosion potential

leading to an increased sediment load in the surface run-off during monsoon. Also, surface run off from drilling

waste (cuttings and drilling mud), hazardous waste (waste oil, used oil etc) and chemical storage areas may lead

to the pollution of receiving water bodies viz. natural drainage channels etc.

Mitigation Measures

• Proper treatment of all wastewater and produced water and any water discharge from well site should comply with CPCB Inland Water Discharge Standards for Oil and Gas Industries

• Waste mud to be stored in the HDPE lined pit

• Drainage and sediment control systems at the well site would be efficiently designed

• All chemical and fuel storage areas, process areas would have proper bunds so that contaminated run-off cannot escape into the storm-water drainage system.

Ground water Impact In absence of supply of surface water resource, the potential impacts on groundwater resource would be due to ground water abstracted for domestic needs and for civil construction activities. Mitigation Measures • All water storages in the drill sites would be kept covered and leakage prevented; Soil Quality Impact During the site preparation stripping of soil would be happened during the construction phase. Site preparatory activities would involve the sourcing of earth-fill from borrow areas. Since in most of the cases efforts would be made to procure the fill material from nearby existing borrow areas. Storage of drill cuttings associated with WBM, spent drilling mud and sludge containing oil and other waste are likely to be generated, would be stored at HDPE lined pit. Fuels, lubricants and chemical used for the drilling operations (especially daily consumption) would be stored at site. Mitigation Measures

• The top soil would be stored properly

• Manage spills of contaminants on soil using spill kits;

• Storage of MSW in designated areas within drill sites/production facilities;

• Adopt best practices e.g. use pumps and dispensing nozzle for transfer of fuel, use drip trays etc. Road and Traffic Impact During various phases of projects like construction, drilling, early production and decommissioning various types of vehicle / equipment movement would be involved. The vehicular movement is expected to be more in construction phase due to movement of machinery & manpower.

Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

EX 9

Mitigation Measures

• Speed limits would be maintained by vehicles involved in transportation of raw material and drilling rig.

• Regular supervision would be done to control vehicular traffic movement along defined traffic routes.

• Entry of vehicles into the drilling site area is prohibited except for material movement.

• Adequate parking would be provided outside the drilling location.

Terrestrial Ecological environment

Impact

The Potential Impacts on the existing floral and faunal diversity may arise due to following activities 1. Vegetation Clearance.

2. Illimitation from Site.

3. Generation of Noise

Mitigation Measures

• The working area would always be kept minimum.

• For felling of trees prior approval from concern Department shall be obtained;

• Appropriate shading of lights to prevent unwanted scattering.

• Plantation of Local tree plantation should be undertaken;

• Fencing would be done on the camp site to avoid any unfortunate encounter with faunal species.

Socio economic environment

Impact

Road infrastructure could be damaged due to heavy traffic movement. Influx of population is anticipated in all

stages of the project cycle particularly during exploratory drilling. The drill site would involve the operation of about

50 onsite workers during drilling phase. Interaction between workers with villagers of nearby areas might give rise

to various issues like conflict of workers with the local population, nuisance caused by workers due to improper

sanitation facilities, etc.

Mitigation

• The shortest distance as far as available / feasible would be considered for access road.

• The village road identified for accessing proposed project footprints, would be strengthened and widened as

per requirement.

• Appropriate awareness program on grievance redressal mechanism, would be designed and implemented

for local community around proposed project footprints;

• Concerns of local panchayat regarding any impact on their common property resources (like of use of village

road, water resource etc.) due to project activities, would be proactively identified and addressed;

Occupational Health & Safety Risks

Impact

The health and safety risks associated with drilling operations may include well kick or blow out, crane failure, fire

Hazards and radiation hazard from well logging tool handling and storage.

Mitigation Measures

• Blowout preventers to be provided;

• The sewage from each porta-cabin to be connected to a mobile STP.

Demobilization and Abandonment

Impact

If hydrocarbons are not found, a full abandonment plan would be implemented. The impacts from decommissioning

of drill sites may include noise generation and soil contamination due to demolition of cutting pits and chemical

storage areas.

Mitigation Measures

• All the wastes to be completely removed from the site and sent to designated authorized disposal facilities prior to commencement of demolition work.

• Prior to commencement of any demolition, a planned programme of site clearance would be formulated. All pits, cellars and holes would be removed, and filled to ground level, any oil or otherwise contaminated soil would be removed and disposed properly.

• Roads and other paving would be removed to sufficient depth to allow soil replacement and revegetation.

• Any remaining topsoil that has been stocked during the site clearance would be re-spread over appropriate portions of the site.

• If any soil contamination is found, measures to be taken to remove or treat the contaminated soil.

2.4.2 Location of Wells

Vedanta Ltd. (Cairn Oil & Gas) proposes to drill 29 exploration & appraisal wells within the present Block boundary

of RJ-ONHP-2017/1. The proposed well sites were selected based primarily on the geological consideration but the

environmental considerations viz. location of sensitive ecological habitats, settlements, schools/ hospitals, water

bodies etc have also been considered. Care had been taken to locate the wells distantly from these receptors. In

case, well site selection in proximity to sensitive receptors could not be avoided (due to presence of geological

formations), requisite clearance/permission would be obtained as may be statutorily required. Proper environmental

and safety measures would be adopted to minimize footprints on these receptors. Proposed well coordinates are

provided in Table 2.1 and the locations of the wells are shown in Figure 6.

2.5 Well Drilling Process The lifecycle of project activities for the proposed project has been divided into distinct steps and each is described

in detail in the subsequent sections and would take approximately three months to complete drilling and testing

activity at each well site. Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil and Gas) has planned to carry out the proposed project

activities in the RJ-ONHP-2017/1 Block over a period of 10-12 years.

The project lifecycle has been classified into three phases:

Pre-drilling activity

• Site selection

• Land procurement

• Site Preparation

• Site access road and drill site construction

• Pre-drilling activities, mobilization and Rigging up

Drilling activity

• Drilling of wells

• Testing of wells

Early Production- When, exploratory drilling is successful

• Drilling of Appraisal wells to quantify the hydrocarbon reserves

• Setting up of Early Production Units (EPUs)/Quick Production Units (QPUs)

Well decommissioning

• Well abandonment

• Site closure and decommissioning

• Site Restoration

2.5.1 Pre-drilling Activity

The pre-drilling phase would involve the following activities:

2.5.2 Site Selection

The exploration history of the area exhibits the potential presence of the oil and gas in the region. The seismic

data interpretation of the seismic survey would decide the exact locations of the drilling well. The proposed

exploratory well site have been identified based on the study and interpretation of the stratigraphy and seismic

data. Within the identified location the actual well drilling site have been selected based on the following factors:

• Located at a safe distance from public road .

• Ensure natural drainage channels are avoided or drainage channels rerouted to ensure

• Unhindered flow of rain / flood water. Where necessary adequate erosion control measures would be

provided

2.5.3 Land Procurement

An area of approximately 300m X 300m would be taken on temporary short-term lease basis for the construction

of well pad (drill site) for exploratory and appraisal wells. For the preparation of suitable access roads connecting

to well pads, accommodating OHL and other utilities in future, a width of 30m (approx.) RoU would be required.

Site Preparation

Site preparation would involve all activities required to facilitate the operation of the drilling rig Site preparation

would be involve all activities required to facilitate the operation of the drilling rig and associated equipment and

machineries. At the initial stage, the drilling site would be elevated to about 2.0 m from the existing ground level

with minimal clearance of existing ground vegetation. The existing trees would be retained to the extent possible.

All efforts would be made during the design of the drill pad to prevent felling of any mature trees.

The loose top soil would be removed by using mechanical means like bulldozer and saved at a nearby place (away

from the water channels) for later use during site restoration. Levelling and compaction would be done with the

help of graders and mechanical rollers. The land filling materials and rubbles would be required for the purpose for

site preparation in sufficient amount. Subsequently, the proposed well site & campsite would be duly fenced using

chain link and barbed wires.

Platforms for drill pad and all other heavy equipment systems or machinery, cast in-situ Reinforced Cement

Concrete (RCC) would be used for the construction of foundation system. The rig foundation would be of 20m X

20m in size and would have an elevation of 0.6 m. For making the foundations of main rig structure, cast in-situ

bored under- reamed piles of specified lengths would also be used. The elevated structures would have proper

garland drains for storm water with sufficient gradient, made of brick masonry, to take care of surface runoff water.

Pit of an impervious HDPE liner would be provided as part of the site development for collection and storage of

drilling waste in the form of spent drilling mud and cuttings etc.

A Campsite, elevated to the height as that of the drilling site (approx.2.0 m), would be set up adjoining the well site.

Local earth and rubble would be used as the fill material. Proper surface gradients and brick masonry drains would

take care of the run-off water, where as separate septic tanks and soak pits would be provided along with the labour

camp for disposal of domestic waste water.

Though the rig and related equipment’s would be directly brought to site, spares, mud preparing chemicals and

other materials would be stored at a warehouse near to the site and would be received to the site from that

intermediate storage area. The rig equipment would however be transported directly to the drilling site during

mobilization and would be de-mobilized directly from the site. The materials would be intermittently supplied from

warehouse to the drilling site, during the operations - with some stock at the drilling site itself.

A typical layout of drill site with QPU is presented in Figure 7 and typical drill site without QPU is presented in Figure

8.

2.5.4 Drilling Activity

The proposed drilling would be carried out by using a standard land rig or a “Mobile Land Rig” with standard

water-based drilling fluid treatment system. This rig would be suitable for deep drilling up to the desired depth of

6000 meters (TVDSS) as planned for the project. Additionally, there would be other ancillary facilities like Drilling

mud system, ETP, Cuttings separation, Drill Cementing equipment etc. and utilities to supply power (DG sets),

water, fuel (HSD) to the drilling process and would be set up as a part of the Project. The details of the drilling rig

is given in Table 2.2. The typical configuration of a Drilling Rig is shown in the Figure 9.

2.5.5 Drilling Operation

A rig would be installed at the potential site of drilling after thorough inspection for its working capability and quality

standards. Well spudding shall be the start of drilling activity. Wells would be drilled in sections, with the diameter

of each section decreasing with increasing depth. Before commencing the actual drilling, large diameter pipe

(Conductor) would be lowered into a hole and cemented/grouted. Top-hole section would be drilled to a desired

depth based on well design. After drilling top-hole section, it would be cased with a pipe called “Casing”. Once each

section of the well is completed, the drill string is lifted, and protective steel pipe or casing lowered into the well and

cemented into place. The lengths and diameters of each section of the well would be determined prior to the starting

of the drilling activities and are dependent on the geological conditions through which the well is to be drilled. This

process of drilling and casing the hole section continues until the final well depth (target) is achieved.

Figure 10. Typical Model Onshore Drilling Process

2.5.6 Mud System and Cuttings returns at the drill pipe–casing annulus up to surface back into the circulation system after separation of drill cuttings

/solids through solids control equipment. The primary function of drilling fluid is to ensure that the rock cuttings

generated by the drill bit are continuously removed from the wellbore. The mud must be designed such that it can

carry the cuttings to surface while circulating, suspend the cuttings while not circulating and drop the cuttings out

of suspension at the surface. The drilled solids are removed at the surface by mechanical devices such as shale

shakers, de-sanders and de-silters. The hydrostatic pressure exerted by the mud column prevents influx of

formation fluids into the wellbore. The instability caused by the pressure differential between the borehole and the

pore pressure can be overcome by increasing the mud weight. Hydration of the clays can be overcome by using

non-aqueous based muds, or partially addressed by treating the mud with chemicals which would reduce the ability

of the water in the mud to hydrate the clays in the formation. Water based mud would be used for initial, shallower

sections where massive shales are not encountered. The deeper and difficult to drill formations would be drilled

using synthetic base mud (SBM). Synthetic base mud unlike oil-based mud (OBM) is biodegradable but can be re-

used. At the end of drilling a well almost the entire amount of the SBM is collected for re-use in next drilling

operation. SBM systems promote good hole cleaning and cuttings suspension properties. They also suppress gas

hydrate formation and exhibit improved conditions for well bore stability compared to most WBM. WBM typically

consists of water, bentonite, polymers and barite. Other chemical additives viz. glycols and salts may be used in

conjunction to mitigate potential problems related to hydrate formation. The mud would be used would be

continuously tested for its density, viscosity, yield point, water loss, pH value etc. The mud would be prepared onsite

(drill location) using centrifugal pumps, hoppers and treatment tanks.

During drilling activity, cuttings would be generated due to crushing action of the drill bit. These cuttings would be

removed by pumping drilling fluid into the well via triplex mud pumps. The mud used during such operation would

flush out formation cuttings from the well hole. Cuttings would be then separated from drilling mud using solids-

control equipment. This would comprise a stepped system of processes consisting of linear motion vibrating

screens called shale shakers, hydro-cyclones (including de-sanders and de-silters), and centrifuges to

mechanically separate cuttings from the mud.

Flow chart for drilling mud & solid discharge is shown in Figure 11 and a typical view of drill cutting separation &

Treatment system is shown in Figure 12.

2.5.7 Cementing

Cementing is a necessary aspect of exploratory drilling oil and gas wells. Cement is used to fulfil the following

works:

• Secure/support casing strings

• Isolate zones for production purposes

2.5.8 Well Evaluation During the drilling operations for different zones, logging operations would be undertaken to get information on the

potential type and quantities of hydrocarbons present in the target formations. Technicians employed by a specialist

logging Service Company do well logging by different well logging techniques including electric, sonic and

radioactive techniques. Logging instruments (sensors) are attached to the bottom of a wire line and lowered to the

bottom of the well and they are then slowly brought back. No emissions to the environment or any environmental

harm is associated with wire line logging operations. The radioactive source required for well logging operations

would be kept in specially designed container.

A drill-stem test would be frequently performed to evaluate the formation or zone from which the gas show was

observed. A drill-stem test enables the exploration company to obtain a sample of the fluids and gases contained

in the formation or interval being tested as well as pressure information, which is determined by special gauges

within the test tool. The test tool contains a valve which may be opened and closed to allow formation fluids to enter

the test tool and drill string. If there is sufficient fluid and pressure within the zone being tested, the formation fluid

may rise to the surface and flow into special test tanks used for that purpose. If gas is present, it is burned at the

surface as a flare.

2.5.9 Hydraulic Fracturing – for Tight Rock Reservoirs of

Hydrocarbons Hydraulic fracturing is used in tight rock reservoirs with low permeability, such as shale (i.e, the conductivity or

ability of hydrocarbons to flow in the formation is low because of the small pore size in the rock). The goal of

hydraulic fracturing in tight reservoir (shale) formations is to enable a well to produce the resource or to increase

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas)

DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

the rate at which a well is able to produce the resource. Hydraulic fracturing may be conducted in wells with low

permeability formation and low pressure. Wells requiring hydraulic fracturing and numbers of stages of hydraulic

fracturing per well would depend on seismic data acquired & interpreted and data acquired during the drilling phase

of the project.

Hydraulic fracturing is a common technique used to stimulate the production of oil and natural gas by creating

fractures or cracks that extend from the well hole into the rock formations. This is accomplished by injecting fluid,

which is usually a mixture of water and high viscosity fluid additives, under extremely high pressure. The pressure

of the water would then exceed the strength of the rock, causing fractures to enlarge. After the fractures take place,

a “propping agent” known as proppant (which is usually sand) is injected into the fractures to keep them from

closing. This allows the hydrocarbon to move more efficiently from the rock to the well. A single well may require

up to 15,000 m3 of water which may vary depending on the fracking requirements. For the hydraulic fracturing in a

well, proppant mass of 150,000 – 200,000 lbs per stage and fluid volume of 2500 bbls – 4000 bbls per stage would

be required.

Fracturing effluent generated would be discharged in the HDPE lined pits at the drilling well sites. The effluent

would be treated for disposal and reuse to the extent possible

2.5.10 Well kick situation & Control measures

While drilling, if the formation pressure exceeds the hydrostatic pressure exerted by the drilling fluid, formation

fluids break out in to the well bore. This is called kick. Primary means of well control is to have sufficient over-

balance over formation pressure. For some reason if an unexpected over-pressurized formation is encountered

while drilling and if the well control situation arises, rig is equipped with equipment to control this situation. This set

of equipment is called “Blowout Preventers (BOP)”. Blow Out Preventer consists of, “Annular Preventer”, which

can generally close on any size or shape of tubular in the well bore and closes the annular space between drill

string and casing. Another type of blowout preventer is a “Ram Preventer”. Ram preventers are of two types i.e.,

Pipe Rams and Shear Rams. Pipe rams also close the annulus between drill string and casing, but they have a

fixed size. As such a specific pipe rams can be closed on a specific size of pipe. Shear rams are generally the last

choice of preventer would be operated as they shear drill string and shut off the well bore. After determining the

existing formation pressure and other geological complexities from the seismic data, appropriate BOP would be

used as per standard oil field guideline for the same.

All these preventers would be stacked in a sequence and such assembly of preventers is termed as BOP stack. A

typical BOP stack is illustrated in figure 13. Blowout prevention equipment would be installed, tested and operated

according to the well control procedures of Vedanta Limited (Division: Cairn Oil & Gas).

2.5.11 Well Testing & Flaring

During the exploration and appraisal drilling, where a hydrocarbon formation is found, initial well tests (generally

about one month of duration) would be carried out to establish flow rates, formation pressure and other parameters.

However, depending on the need, based on nature of the reservoirs, the exploratory and appraisal wells would be

tested for longer/extended durations to ascertain the reservoir parameters. During the well testing, crude oil, natural

gas and produced water could be generated and would be treated and disposed appropriately. Hydrocarbons would

be flared. Efficient test flare burner would be used to minimize incomplete combustion. As an alternative option, if

feasible, crude oil/ slop oil would be transferred to nearby refinery (terminals/depots) for processing or would be

sent to authorized recyclers

2.6 Early Production When, exploratory drilling is successful, more wells (termed as Appraisal wells) would be drilled to determine the

size and the extent of the field. Wells drilled to quantify the hydrocarbon reserves found are called as ‘appraisal’

wells. The appraisal activity would be carried out with an aim to evaluate the size and nature of the reservoir, to

determine the number of confirming or appraisal wells required, and whether any further seismic survey is

necessary. The technical procedures and activities in appraisal drilling would be the same as those employed for

exploration wells. A number of wells may be drilled from a single well pad/ drill site. Deviated or directional drilling

at an angle from a site adjacent to the original discovery well may be used to appraise other parts of the

reservoir, in order to reduce the land requirement

2.6.1 Drilling of Appraisal wells When, exploratory drilling is successful, more wells (termed as Appraisal wells) would be drilled to determine the

size and the extent of the field. Wells drilled to quantify the hydrocarbon reserves found are called as ‘appraisal’

wells. The appraisal activity would be carried out with an aim to evaluate the size and nature of the reservoir, to

determine the number of confirming or appraisal wells required, and whether any further seismic survey is

necessary. The technical procedures and activities in appraisal drilling would be the same as those employed for

exploration wells. A number of wells may be drilled from a single well pad/ drill site. Deviated or directional drilling

at an angle from a site adjacent to the original discovery well may be used to appraise other parts of the reservoir,

in order to reduce the land requirement.

2.6.2 Early Production Units (EPUs)/ Quick Production units

(QPUs): Early Production Units (EPUs) or Quick Production Units (QPUs) would be installed for the processing of produced

well fluid. A EPU/ QPU would be a packaged/ modular mobile unit and would mainly consists of a heater-treater

separator or a production heater followed with a three phase separator, electrostatic coalescer, oil storage tanks,

oil tanker loading system, produced water separation and disposal system, power generation (GEG or DG), test

separator skid, utility systems such as fuel gas, flare, Inst. Air package, diesel storage, firefighting equipment, etc.

A QPF would be designed for a capacity of 2,000 BLPD (Barrels of liquid per Day) with water cut variation from 0

– 50 vol%. Typical process Flow of QPU/EPU is presented in the Figure 14.

Produced well fluid from one or more successful exploratory/ appraisal wells would be gathered & sent to heater-

treater separator skid for primary separation & heating purpose. Gathered produced fluid would be heated &

degassed in heater-treater separator skid operating at ~2.5 – 3 Barg and ~70 – 800C and separated in to gas, oil

and water streams. The separated produced (associated) gas would be either routed to fuel gas system or to flare

depending on the quantity and richness of produced (associated) gas. In case of sufficient quantity of produced

gas, a part of the produced gas would be used for power generation using gas engine generator (GEG), for firing

in heater-treater separator skid and for blanketing & purging purpose. The surplus gas post internal consumption

(if any) would be routed to flare for safe atmospheric discharge.

Separated oil from heater-treater separator skid would be sent to electrostatic coalescer separator (if needed,

based on oil properties) to separate the residual water and achieve BS&W specifications. The treated crude oil

from electrostatic coalescer separator would be sent to oil storage tanks. From oil storage tanks, oil will be pumped

& loaded in to road tanker using the tanker loading facility for evacuation of crude oil to the nearby available facilities

like terminals/ depots of consumers.

Separated produced water (PW) from heater-treater separator skid will be sent to degasser vessel operating at low

pressure. The evolved HC gases from degasser vessel will be routed to flare for safe disposal and the degassed

water sent to PW treatment package.

The PW treatment package will consists of a compact flotation unit or other equivalent gas floatation based de-

oiling (oil removal) system and a filtration system. The treated water from PW treated skid will be stored in PW

storage tanks. The produced water will be treated to achieve MoEF/ CPCB/ SPCB specifications (discharge

standards) and will be disposed off. The treated effluent (i.e. produced water) will be disposed-off using either a

nearby down hole disposal well (by reinjection in abandoned well) or other available and suitable onshore disposal

medium or solar/ mechanical evaporators depending on the quantity and feasibility.

The power requirement will be met through either state electricity grid and/ or installation of Diesel/ Gas Engine

Generator(s) using produced gas. If produced gas is sufficient quantity, then power generation using produced gas

will be preferred.

Along with above processing facility, a well test separator skid will be installed at pad. It will be used for well testing

purpose. Well under testing will be routed to test separator skid. The separated gas, oil & water will be sent back

to inlet of heater-treater separator skid for further processing. Quick production set-up will have following utility

systems & infrastructure for supporting the operations.

2.7 Completion of Drilling On completion of activities, the well would be either plugged and suspended (if the well evaluations indicate

commercial quantities of hydrocarbons) or would be killed and permanently abandoned. In the event of a decision

to suspend the well, it would be filled with a brine solution containing very small quantities of inhibitors to protect

the well. The well would be sealed with cement plugs and some of the wellhead equipment (Blind Flange) would

be left on the surface (Cellar). If the well is abandoned it would be sealed with a series of cement plugs, all the

wellhead equipment would be removed, by leaving the surface clear of any debris and the site would be restored.

2.8 Well Decommissioning After the completion of the drilling activity, partial de-mobilization of the drilling rig and associated infrastructure

would be initiated. As discussed earlier, well testing may be carried out immediately after the drilling is completed.

The complete de-mobilization of the facilities at site would happen once well-testing completed successfully. This

would involve the dismantling of the rig, all associated equipment and the residential camp, and transporting it out

of the project area. It is expected that demobilization would take approximately 20-25 days and would involve the

trucking away of materials, equipment and other materials from the site to bring it back to its original condition. It is

estimated that about 50 truckloads would be transported out of site during this period. If no indication of any

commercially viable amount of oil or gas is encountered either before or after testing, the well would be declared

dry and accordingly would be plugged of and abandoned, and the site would be restored in line with regulations

and good industry practice.

2.9 Utilities & Resource Requirements, Associated

Facilities

2.9.1 Liquid Mud Plant (LMP) The Liquid Mud Plant (LMP) would be located at suitable locations of the fields to prepare drilling mud for the drilling

operations. It is estimated around 3 – 5 LMP’s would be set-up at any a given point of time for the proposed drilling

operations. All the tanks, equipment’s, civil works, pumps, mud laboratory with testing equipment along with the

mud waste disposal pits would be constructed within a single location.

The entire LMP area would be provided with containment area and with facilities for fork lift movement and

transportation of solid waste skips. The area would be designed to facilitate tanks for SBM mixing/ storage, tanks

of base oil storage and another tanks for brine mixing/storage. These tanks are interconnected with piping and

manifold with mixing hoppers, pumps connections, centrifuges connection with complete mud conditioning set-up,

loading-unloading piping/hoses connections.

The Mud Plant area would be surrounded with a containment boundary wall. All the liquid transferred from the LMP

to the drilling site would be through road tankers. For power supply requirement DG sets would be required with

one operational and one standby.

The LMP would have water storage tanks, bunk houses for operating office and site laboratory, dry chemical

storage area in paved surface, truck loading and unloading area with parking facility, cranes & forklifts maintenance

and parking facility, septic tank with soak pits, DG area, diesel storage area and power distribution panel & facility.

2.9.2 Accommodation & Camp Site Drilling camp sites would be set-up within the vicinity of the drilling sites to allow for easy movement of the crew

between the camp and the drilling sites. The camp site would generally comprise of transportable container cabins

(portable cabin) of 20 feet and 40 feet size to provide accommodation to operational crew. Each cabin would house

2 to 4 persons. A typical view of Vedanta Limited. (Division Cairn Oil & Gas)’s camp site has been presented in

Figure 15 below. Toilet facilities would be built as part of the accommodation unit. The sewage lines from the units

would be connected through a pipeline system to a septic tank and soak pit system. Additionally, there would be

dedicated cabins to serve as kitchen, cold storage, dining area, recreation area, laundry etc.

2.9.3 Approach and Internal Roads

The approach road to drill sites will be constructed and/or existing roads will be strengthened for movement of

construction machinery, drilling rig, material supply vehicles, passenger vehicles etc. depending on the location of

drill site. In general, it is intended to make the maximum use of the existing road infrastructure.

2.9.4 Water Storage Pit

The water storage pit contains the water used for preparing drilling fluid and domestic purpose. Provision for

additional water storage will be kept in case multi-stage fracturing is planned.

2.9.5 Chemical Storage Area

The chemicals to be used in preparing mud will be stored on a paved platform with kerb walls and protected against

weather by an impervious covering. All the storage areas will be identified with labelling and sign boards. Material

Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) shall be maintained for all chemicals that are stored and handled at the drill site. The

storage area will be provided with adequate number of fire extinguishers.

2.9.6 Spent Drilling Fluid Disposal Pits

All wastewater from the drilling operations will be collected in the drilling fluid storage pit. The wastewater in this

storage pits will be recycled and reused during drilling phase. The residual wastewater will be sent to solar

evaporation pit for treatment. The pits will be lined with HDPE sheet and the overlaps welded together with the

edges bought over the rim and tucked into the cement mortar / bund soil.

2.9.7 Drill Cutting Disposal (impervious lined) Pit

While recycling the mud, the drill cutting will be separated through shale shaker, which will be disposed off to cutting

disposal pit. It will be HDPE lined to avoid contamination of land and groundwater. The pit will be soil bunded lined

to prevent any overflow to the surroundings.

2.9.8 Flare Pit (well testing)

To conduct ground flaring, all the sites will have a flaring pit with adequate burner. The flare pit will be made up of

RCC / brick lining and are located preferably 90 degrees to the predominant wind direction. The location of the pit

also depends on the entry to the site from the adjacent road side, processing units or tanks.

2.9.9 Flare Stack

A flare system consists of the flare stack or boom and pipes which collect the gases to be flared. The flare tip at

the end of the stack or boom is designed to assist entrainment of air into the flare to improve burn efficiency. Seals

installed in the stack prevent flashback of the flame, and a vessel at the base of the stack removes and conserves

any liquids from the gas passing to the flare.

• For effective flaring document “Oil & Gas drilling and extraction industry” June 2006 will be followed.

• Standard flare design - An efficient test flare burner head equipped with a combustion enhancement

system will be selected to minimize incomplete combustion, black smoke, and hydrocarbon fallout.

Volumes of hydrocarbons flared will be recorded.

• Location and height of the flare stack based on maximum ground level concentration criteria & maximum

radiation intensity exposure criteria

• Flare stack- Minimum physical height of stack should be 30 m from ground level. Only in those situations

and or locations where elevated flares are not technical feasible, then ground flaring may be resorted to,

such as when there is a crop cultivation / vegetation in the vicinity of the well pad or / and where flared

gas volume is <0.5 MMSCFD (due to this low volume, sometimes elevated flare gets extinguished in

presence of wind)

2.9.10 Diesel Storage Tank The fuel (diesel) would be received in bulk quantity through tankers and would be stored in above ground steel

diesel tanks. The tank area is generally provided with secondary containment of adequate capacity to control any

accidental leaks.

2.9.11 Waste Storage Hazardous wastes generated from drilling activities such as used oil from pumps and machinery, empty chemical

and fuel barrels, contaminated oil rags and soil etc would be collected and stored in a designated storage area.

The storage area would have paved flooring, containment bund and roof. Waste oil from pumps and machinery

would be collected and stored in used oil barrels and would be kept in a designated storage area. The contaminated

soil and cotton rags would be disposed of at approved secured Land fill as per the legal provision. Used oil would

be disposed off through recyclers/ re-processors registered with the Central Pollution Control Board and authorized

by State Pollution Control Board.

2.9.12 Storm Water Drainage System

Adequate drain will be provided all around the drilling site to prevent runoff of any oil containing waste water into

the nearby natural drainage area. The storm water drain shall be provided with oil trap and the collected water shall

be sent to storm water pit.

2.9.13 Sewage Treatment Plant (STP)

Mobile Modular STP of capacity 30 m3/day for treatment of sewage and sullage Water generated within the well

pad limits. Each well site and camp site will have toilets which will be provided with septic tanks and soak pit

arrangement. To cater to about people that will stay in the camps site, adequately sized septic tanks and soak pits

will be provided.

2.9.14 Raw Material Requirement

Maximum care will be taken for resource optimization, wherever possible with an aim of

• Resource Conservation

• Elimination of Waste Streams

• Minimizing Waste

• Reuse/recycle of Wastes

• The drill cuttings from the drilling operations associated with water-based mud will be used for filling low

lying areas as a sub grade construction material in construction of well pads, etc.

• Synthetic base mud will be re-used in further drilling activities

Raw Material Required for Drilling During drilling activities, materials like HSD, Steel (in the form of casings & tubulars) and chemicals like barite, oil

well cement and bentonite will be required. Other production equipment like tubular (Casing and tubings), wellhead

assembly, packer etc, and chemicals for mud and cementing required for the drilling operations and shall be

procured by the company from within the country and from abroad before the commencement of operations.

Water based mud will be used for initial, shallower sections where massive shales are not encountered. The deeper

and difficult to drill formations will be drilled using synthetic base mud (SBM). Synthetic based mud can be re-used.

WBM typically consists of water, bentonite, polymers and barite. Other chemical additives viz. glycols and salts

may be used in conjunction to mitigate potential problems related to hydrate formation.

• Requirement WBM (approx.) 800-1000 m3/well

• Requirement SBM (approx.) 600-800 m3/well

The role of the mud in pressure control is especially important. If the drill bit penetrates a formation containing oil,

gas or water under pressure these fluids are prevented from flowing into the borehole by ensuring that the drilling

mud is of sufficient density to the natural formation pressures. The density of the mud can be increased by the

addition of barite weighting material. Bentonite is employed to improve the theological properties and enable the

drill cuttings to be transported from the hole while drilling and also be suspended in the fluid while the drill bit is

being changed. The barite used in the drilling mud would be as per American Petroleum Institute (API) standard

specifications.

Power Requirement

Drilling Operations The power requirement in the drilling site and the campsites will be provided through diesel generator

(DG) sets. The rated capacity of the DG sets required for onshore drilling site is provided in the Table

Water Requirement

Drilling

Water consumption during drilling and testing of wells will be 102 m3 per day. Total 72 m3 per day fresh

water will be required for drilling activities and 30 m3 per day freshwater will be used for domestic

purposes including drinking, washings and domestic use. Wells will be drilled either water-based mud

or synthetic based mud. The water requirement in drilling rig is mainly meant for preparation of drilling

mud apart from washing and domestic use. The water requirement for all the project activities would be

sourced locally through approved/authorized sources of surface water and/or ground water (e.g. PHD

bore wells, privately owned bore wells, irrigation Department/water resources Dept. of State Govt.). In

case of unavailability of water from approved sources, required water would be extracted after obtaining

permission from CGWA/State Govt.

Quick production unit/Early production unit

Approximately, 20 m3 per day water would be required for domestic use in QPU/EPU.

Figure 15. Water Balance for Drilling Phase of the Oil and Gas Exploration

2.9.15 Fuel Consumption

Fuel consumed during the drilling phase will mainly be diesel (HSD) used for various equipment and vehicles

operating to transport goods and supplies to site.

During the drilling phase of High-Speed Diesel will be required. Fuel will be supplied onsite by local supplier

through mobile tankers. Out of this, a major part approximately 85% will be consumed by the rig (also include the

DG sets) and about 15% will be required for the campsite.

2.9.16 Manpower / Employment

Most of the workforce will be from local/nearby area. During the site preparation for drilling, approximately 30-35

workmen will be employed per drill site. During the drilling phase, about 50 workmen per shift will be working on

site. This will include technical experts, who will be responsible for various drilling related activities and some

technical manpower. It is anticipated that, at any given time, there will be about 80 - 100 personnel working on site

including technical staff, drilling crew, security staff etc.

2.9.17 Drilling Hazards

Loss of well control / blow-out, fire, explosion and oil spills are the major potential hazards associated with drilling

for oil and gas. Effective response plans to foreseeable emergencies will be developed by Cairn Oil and Gas and

communicated to the project teams. The quantitative risk assessment to be carried out as part of this EIA will also

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

36

contribute towards identification of hazards, risks and formulating management plans for emergency response,

blowout, oil spills.

2.9.18 Pollution Sources and Characterization

The various types of pollution from the proposed exploratory drilling operations are:

• Noise and Vibration;

• Air Emission;

• Liquid waste and

• Solid and Hazardous waste generation

Exhaust gases from DG sets, noise from the drilling operations, wastewater, drilling wastes are the major types of

the pollutants generated during the proposed drilling operations which is a temporary activity lasting for maximum

of 4- 5 months at each of the well locations.

Noise and Vibrations Noise will be generated during various phases of the project, site preparation, drilling and decommissioning of

wells. The major noise generating operations from the proposed activity are drilling operations, diesel generators,

mud circulation pumps and movement of vehicles. Noise during the site preparatory phase will primarily be

contributed by heavy construction machinery operating on site and vehicular sources. The noise generation work

however is transient and limited to the drilling period only. The diesel generators would be provided with acoustic

enclosures to comply with the regulatory requirements. Average noise emission ranges for different types of

machineries and vehicles is shown in Table 2.5 and Table 2.6 respectively.

As drilling activity is continuous, part of the noise associated with functioning of the rig and ancillaries will be

generated throughout day and night.

Air Emissions

Exhaust emissions are expected from diesel generators to be used for the operation of drilling activities. Emissions

are also expected from flaring of gases during testing/extended testing of exploratory and appraisal wells. Vehicular

emissions are likely to occur during the transportation of materials, equipment and workforce. The principal air

pollutants will comprise of Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM), Sulphur and Nitrogen oxides (SO2 and NO2) and

other hydrocarbons (HC).

Additionally, the flaring and burning of oil during the testing of the well will also lead to the release of some pollutants

including un-burnt hydrocarbons to the atmosphere. Some fugitive emissions of dust and air pollutants from

vehicular exhaust will also happen during the project lifecycle, mostly during the operation and decommissioning

activities. Additionally, there will be re-entrainment of dust from the approach road leading to the site mainly during

the dry season.

The following pollution prevention and control measures will be adopted-

• Air emission specifications will be considered during all equipment selection and procurement.

• The associated gas stream will be routed to an efficient flare system.

Liquid Waste

The drilling operation would generate wastewater in the form of wash water due to washing of equipment, string

and cuttings etc. The only other source of wastewater generated from drilling operation is sewage from sanitation

facilities. Around 15 to 25 m3/day/well of wastewater would be generated, which will be treated in modular Sewage

Treatment Plant (STP) and the treated water will be used for dust suppression, green belt, etc. It is expected that

wastewater in the form of Drill cutting washing + Rig washing+ cooling etc shall be generated at an average rate

of around 30 to 40 m3/day/well during the drilling operations from a single well. Waste water will be discharged in

HDPE lined evaporation pit for disposal. The wash water would contain variable quantities of mineral salts, solids,

suspended and dissolved hydrocarbons, and other organic and inorganic components in very minor quantities.

The drilling wash wastewater will be treated prior to discharge to comply with the regulatory standards. Treated

effluent (PW) will be disposed off on the suitable onshore disposal medium or solar/mech. evaporators depending

on feasibility. The quantity of wastewater generation and anticipated disposal methods is given in Table 2.7.

3. Description of the Environment This chapter describes the prevailing baseline environmental settings study area including RJ-ONHP-2017/1 Block

and its close vicinity. This includes the physical environment comprising air, water and land components, the

biological environment, and socio-economic environment.

Attributes of the physical environment like air, water, soil quality and noise level in the surrounding area were

assessed primarily through monitoring and analysis of samples collected from field. Ambient Air, traffic and ambient

noise, surface and ground water and soil primary monitoring was carried out by Edward Food Research and

Analysis Centre (EFRAC) (a NABL certified laboratory) during summer season (March to May) of 2019 under

supervision of different Functional area expert of AECOM

Information about geology, hydrology, past records of natural hazards like floods, earthquakes etc. have been

collected from literature reviews, IMD sources and authenticated information made available by government

departments.

Surveys were carried out to understand and record the biological environment prevailing in the area and the same

was verified against published information and literature. The socio-economic environment has been studied

through consultations with various stakeholders in the villages within the RJ-ONHP-2017/1 Block. Additionally,

demography data have been obtained from the Census of India 2011district reports.

3.1 Study area RJ-ONHP-2017/1 is laying between 25° 28' to 25° 10’ latitude and 71° 30' to 71° 38' longitude. Block is located in

a flat terrain with average elevation ranging from 47 to 100 meter from mean sea level. Study area has been

delineated on the basis of the guideline provided in approved ToR provided by MoEF&CC and it is comprise of 10

kilometers radius of the RJ-ONHP-2017/1 Block.

3.2 Physiography and Geology RJ- ONHP-2017/1 Block is located in Barmer district of Rajasthan (100% coverage).

3.2.1 Physiography

Barmer District Barmer is located in the western part of the state forming a part of the Thar Desert. The district borders Jaisalmer

district in the north, Jalore district in the south, Pali district and Jodhpur district in the east, and Pakistan in the west.

Apart from a small offshoot of the Aravalli hills in the east, the area is a vast sand covered tract with substratum of

gneiss, hornblende and quartz, which here and there rises up through the sand, in one instances to a height of

about 243 to 304 metres. In the extreme north and west, the sandy plain is broken by sand hills called tibias which

sometimes rise to a height of 91 to 122 metres. This area is dreary and inhospitable and forms part of Thar Desert.

The highest peak in the district is the Chhappan-ka-Pahar in Siwana tehsil, which is about 973 metres above the

sea-level.

The only river of any consequence is the Luni (Salt river), which rises in the hills south-west of Ajmer City, After

flowing through Nagaur, Pali and, Jodhpur districts it enters this district near village Rampur in Pachpadra tehsil

and flows westward till just beyond Tilwara where it alters course to south-west in the years of heavy rains which,

however, are rare, the river overflows (known as Rel) when crops of wheat, gram and barley become possible.

After flowing into Jalor district, it finally loses itself in marshy ground at the head of the Rann of Kutch. Another river

is Sukri which enters Barmer tehsil of the district from Jalor district, flows through a small portion of the district and

then joins the river Luni near Samdari. Other rivers of the district are Mitri and Sukri.

3.2.2 Geology

Geologically, the Barmer district is underlain by intrusive rocks at the basement (Post Delhi formation) consisting

of Jalor and Siwana granite & Malani rhyolite and granite followed by Mesozoic and Tertiary formations consisting

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

of sandstone, shale, conglomerate. Rocks of Mesozoic era are comprised of Lathi series of Jurassic and Abur

series of Cretaceous period. Tertiaries consist of Akali and Kapurdi series of Eocene period. These formations are

overlain by Pleistocene to recent alluvium consisting mainly of clay, sand and silt. Most part of the district is covered

by desert sand and sand dunes. The rock formation occupies the area in patches. The Malani igneous suits of

rocks are most extensive & are oldest in the area, consist of volcanic rocks, rhyolites granites & associated intrusive

like basic dykes aplites & quartz veins. Besides these igneous rocks other rocks exposed in the area are sandstone

belonging to Lathi, Fatehgarh & Mandai formation, Akli & Kapurdi formations constituted by bentonite. Geological

and Geomorphological map of Barmer district is presented Figure 16

3.3 Hydrogeology The main water bearing formations in the Barmer district are rhyolites and granites of post Delhi; Lathi sandstone,

Tertiary sandstone and Quaternary alluvium. In Quaternary alluvium, ground water occurs under semi confined to

unconfined conditions. In semi consolidated Tertiary and Mesozoic formations, it occurs under unconfined to

confined conditions and in weathered and fractured zones in hard rocks under phreatic conditions. Though ground

water occurs in all the formations but the most productive aquifers are the Lathi sandstone, Barmer sandstone and

Quaternary sediments. The Tertiary formation, which is predominantly clayey and argillaceous, is not found as

productive except locally in the sandstone horizon. In general, the fractured and weathered zones in hard rocks

form poor aquifers. Hydrogeological map of Barmer District is presented in Figure 17 and Figure 18.

As reported by CGWB, during pre-monsoon, shallow water level varying in depth from 4.90 to 36.18 mbgl existed

in Baetu, Balotra and Siwana blocks. Deeper water levels from 52.59 to 70.95 mbgl were recorded in Barmer,

Chohtan, Dhorimanna, Sheo and Sindhari blocks.

During post monsoon, shallow water levels ranging in depth from 4.00 to 38.07 mbgl were observed in Baetu,

Balotra and Siwana blocks. Deeper water levels from 52.99 to 71.50 mbgl depth were registered in Barmer,

Chohtan, Dhorimanna, Sheo and Sindhari blocks. Pre and Post Monsoon depth to water level map of Barmer

district is shown in Figure 17 and Figure 18 respectively.

3.5 Drainage Geographically, the area as a whole forms a part of the Great Indian Desert. Apart from a small offshoot of the

Aravalli hills in the east, the area is a vast sandy tract. The country west of Luni River represents sandy plain dotted

with bold hills. A well-defined valley is observed along Barmer-Gadra road to the east of Kharin. Pachpadra,

Sanwarla and Thob are the major salt lakes in the district. A salt lake locally called Rann is located east of Redana

village. The surface elevation of the district varies from 70 above mean sea level (mamsl) at Sindhari to 457 mamsl

at Ghonia village. The only major drainage course in the area is Luni River, which flows from Samdari, passing

through Balotra. The river is ephemeral, flowing only in response to heavy precipitation. In the year of drought there

is no run off.

Drainage Map of RJ-ONHP-2017/1 Block is presented in Figure 22

Floods The desert district of Barmer has experienced flood situation for 6 years. The flood occurred during alternate years

from 1988 to 1994, i.e. 1988, 1990, 1992 and 1994 when the rainfall was above the average rainfall by 111.5,

105.1, 35.2 and 37.5 percent respectively. Year 2003 and 2006 experienced severe floods and the rainfall exceeded

91.8 and 145.1 percent respectively from the average rainfall mark.

The erratic and heavy rainfall in 2006 turned a large part of the deep desert country into a vast submerged

landscape. Barmer District, Thar Desert, Rajasthan has an average rainfall of 280 mm annually, but during the

monsoon of 2006 it received about 600 mm of rain within 2–3 days. Several hamlets and small villages were wiped

out after the 19–21 August rains. The region experienced one of the worst floods in a hundred years.

The damage was grave in different villages of Barmer District, specially Kawas, Malva and Bhadaka, with a

combined population of about 10,000. These villages were submerged under water for more than 4–5 months.

There were also reports of large-scale damage to houses and property and about 47,000 cattle have perished in

the floods. Some areas of Kawas village remain submerged under 3–4 ft of water even 7 months after the rains. A

thick layer of gypsum in Kawas, the worst hit area in the district, prevented the floodwaters from percolating, as

there were thick layers of clay – bentonite and fuller’s earth (Tertiary) and gypsite (Quaternary) at a depth of about

1–1.5 ft in the area. To drain this water is a major problem.

Poorly planned and rapid urbanisation has increased Barmer's vulnerability to flash flooding. The local ecology and

soil type is not equipped to deal with sudden or excessive water accumulation, which causes short- and long-term

damage. Other areas suffer the gradual effects of ‘invisible disasters’, which also threaten the lives and livelihoods

of the locals. Flood zone map of Rajasthan is present in Figure 24.

Draught There have been 11 instances of drought years in the Barmer district, with 4 severe drought years. The severe

drought years were 1986, 1987, 1991 and 2002 with average annual rainfall 71.7, 82.9, 68.8 and 75.8 percent

below the average respectively. It can be seen that 1980-1981, 1985-1987 and 1999-2000 are consecutive and

1987, 1989 and 1991 are alternate drought years of the district. As per the Disaster Management, Relief & Civil

Defence Department, Rajasthan, Barmer & Jalore is classified as district with draught recurrence as ‘once in 3

year’. Drought frequency map of Rajasthan is presented in Figure 25

3.9 Ambient Air Quality The objective of the ambient air quality monitoring program is to establish the baseline ambient air quality in the

study area for the proposed project and to assess its conformity with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards

(NAAQS), 2009. The study area is mainly rural area with pockets of habitations called “Dhani’s”. The main

topographical feature of the area is undulating with prevailing sand dunes.

AECOM contracted the environmental baseline monitoring to M/s Edward Food Research & analysis Centre Ltd.

(EFRAC) which is accredited by National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration (NABL)/ recognized by

MoEF. The baseline monitoring was carried out during the period March to May, 2019.

The baseline status of the ambient air quality was assessed through a scientifically designed ambient air quality-

monitoring network. The design of monitoring network in the air quality study was based on (i)meteorological

conditions on synoptic basis; (ii) topography of the study area; (iii) representatives of regional background air quality

for obtaining baseline status; (iv) representatives of likely impact areas and (v) accessibility and availability of

infrastructure.

Criteria used for designing the network were principally governed by the wind rose pattern for summer season and

the accessibility of the selected sites.

AAQ Monitoring Locations The ambient air quality was carried out at eight (8) locations in and around the proposed block area. The monitoring

locations were selected taking into considerations factors such as predominant up & down wind directions,

proposed project activity area, prominent existing air pollution sources and receptor locations. Air Quality monitoring

location map is presented Figure 30

due to the existing operations on human settlements. Noise standards have been designed for different types of

land use i.e. residential, commercial industrial areas and silence zones as per ‘The Noise Pollution (Regulation and

Control) Rules, 2000, Notified by Ministry of Environment and Forests, New Delhi, February 14, 2000’.

The ambient noise monitoring was carried out at eight locations during baseline monitoring (March to May, 2019)

as described in Table 3.6 and as shown in Figure 30. Sound pressure level (SPL) measurements in dB (A) were

recorded for every hour continuously for 24 hours at 15 minutes interval for the monitoring stations and equivalent

noise levels in the form of Leq day and Leq night was computed. The day noise levels have been monitored during

6.00 am to 10.00 pm and night levels during 10.00 pm to 6.00 am at all the locations. The results obtained were

compared with the standard specified in Schedule III, Rule 3 of Environmental Protection Rules.

3.11 Ground Water Quality Primary monitoring of ground water quality was considered important in order to understand the probable impacts

of the proposed project activities on the sub surface aquifers. Potential pollution of subsurface and unconfined

aquifers may occur due to improper casing and cementing of well leading to infiltration or seeping of drilling

chemicals or mud into nearby aquifer. Contamination of aquifers may also occur from disposal of drilling waste and

mud in an open/unpaved pit. A monitoring network consisting of 8 locations for groundwater was selected and

representative sampling was carried out at each of the locations and the detailed results of ground water analysis

are presented in Table 3-8.

Groundwater Sampling Locations For the purpose of baseline assessment, total eight (8) locations were identified for groundwater samples covering

the study area and were examined for physico-chemical, heavy metals and bacteriological parameters to assess

the current status of water quality in the study area during the monitoring period. The groundwater quality is likely

to be variable within the Block due to spatial heterogeneity in the aquifer. These locations are spatially distributed

all across the Block and its surrounding areas. The sampling locations were selected to capture both shallow as

well as deeper part of aquifer. The ground water samples were collected from bore wells as well as open wells.

The water sampling location details are presented below in Table 3.8 and Figure 35. Map showing Groundwater

and Soil Sampling Locations

Interpretation of Groundwater Quality Results

Physical Parameters: The pH of water samples ranged from 7.2 to 7.5. Turbidity of all the samples varied from

0.16 to 0.32 NTU. The TDS in the groundwater samples varied from 2460 mg/l to 9428 mg/l.

Inorganic Parameters: The total alkalinity of the samples varied from 340 to 900 mg/l which falls within their

corresponding permissible limit of 600 mg/l except at GW2, GW3 and GW4 which had alkalinity of 900 and 700

mg/l respectively. Total hardness of the samples are within the permissible limit of 600 mg/l except at GW1 (730

mg/l), GW2 (970mg/l), GW4 (730mg/l), GW10 (730 mg/l) and GW5 (830 mg/l), GW6 (730 mg/l) and GW7(880mg/l)

. The concentrations of heavy metals (cadmium, lead, mercury, arsenic, molybdenum), and other parameters

cyanide, polychlorinated bi-phenyles, PAHs have been found to be below detection limit.

Nutrient and Demand Parameters: Faecal coliform and total coliform content have been below the detection limit

of less than 2 MPN/100 ml.

Other Parameters. No pesticides have been detected in any of the samples. Most of the samples have been below

detectable limits for toxic substances.

It was not found suitable for drinking purposes (without primary and secondary treatment) as their TDS, turbidity,

hardness has been beyond the permissible limits. In this Block, the groundwater occurs under water table as well

as in confined condition in the area. The quality of groundwater is therefore likely to be variable within the study

area due to spatial heterogeneity in the aquifer.

3.12 Surface Water Quality Monitoring programme was occurred in the summer season during Month of May,2019. It is observed that the water

holding capacity of the soil is very weak, which influences lesser surface water availability in this Block and

excessive high ambient temperature in summer season with low humidity, accelerates evaporation and dries up

the surface water sources faster. All most all the surface water sources in this Block like pond found in dry condition

during sampling activity. Therefore, due to non-availability of sources, no surface water sample could be obtained

from Block RJ-ONHP-2017/03 for assessing their baseline status of physico-chemical, heavy metals and

bacteriological characteristics.

3.13 Soil Quality The soil in the area varies from rich alluvium to sandy desert soil types. The general classification of soil is based

on the soil texture and origin of the soil. In the study area there are generally five different types of soil namely:

Desert soil: Desert soil area is occupied by alluvium and windblown sand, yellowish brown, sandy to sandy loam,

loose, structure less, well drained with high permeability and lies in northern, western and central parts of the

district.

Sand dunes: These are non-calcareous soil, sandy to loamy sand, loose, structure less and well drained. Sand

dunes lie in northern, western and central parts of the district.

Red desertic soil: These are pale brown to reddish brown soils, structure less, loose, and well drained. Texture

varies from sandy loam to sandy clay loam. These soils occupy eastern and southeastern parts of the district.

Saline soil of depressions: This type of soil is found in salt lakes. They are dark grey to pale brown, heavy soils

with water table very near to the surface and are distinctly saline.

Lithosols & Regosols of hills: This type of soil is found in isolated hills as lithoslopes. These soils are shallow

with gravels very near to the surface, high textured, fairly drained, reddish brown in colour and lie in south-eastern

part of the district.

3.13.1 Soil type and characteristics:

Samples for soil quality monitoring were collected from 8 locations in and around the block area. Details of Soil

Sampling locations are presented in Table 3.10and Figure 35. Analysis results of soil samples are presented in

Table 3.11 and the relevant Soil Remediation Intervention Values (Dutch standards) are presented in Table 3.12.

pH

Soil acidity has a correlation with the availability of nutrients in terms of their deficiency and toxicity. A soil having

pH less than 6 is considered as acidic. The soil samples in the study area have been found to be neutral as the pH

ranges from 6.9 to 7.2.

Texture and Electrical Conductivity

Texture is an expression to indicate the coarseness or fineness of the soil as determined by the relative proportion

of the various sized primary particles in the soil mass. The textures of the collected soil samples have been found

to be fine sand to loamy fine sand in the study area. The sandy texture of the soil in this region also resulted to high

permeability of the soil, the average permeability of the collected sample is found to be 4.8 cm/min.

EC values for the soils monitored at the study area range between 229.3 and 866.2µs/cm. For a productive soil,

the electrical conductance (EC) should be < 100000µs/cm.

Macronutrients and Organic Carbon

Nutrient status of the soil samples can be determined from the concentration of N, P, K and organic carbon in soil

samples. Standard rating chart for soil nutrients is provided in Table 24.

Nitrogen contents in the soil samples ranged between 0.75 – 1.37%, phosphorus content in the soil samples ranged

between 14.76– 49.41 mg/kg and potassium contents ranges between 721.51 – 1253.55 mg/kg. With comparison

to the rating chart, nutrient status of the soil is low.

Metals

Heavy metals such as copper (4.30 - 8.98 mg/kg), lead (2.6 - 6.2 mg/kg) and zinc (29.19- 158.32 mg/kg) have been

found to be detectable in the soil of the study area. The concentration of copper, lead, Zinc and the other heavy

metals in the soil sample was much below the soil remediation intervention values specified in Dutch Soil

Remediation Circular.

Sodium Absorption Ratio (SAR) - Sodium absorption ratio for the samples varied between 0.09-2.97.

Conclusion

The soil samples have been found to be sandy loam in nature with slightly basic in reaction. The macronutrient

contents viz. NPK values of the soil samples have been found to be low. Metal contamination have not been

observed in the analysed soil samples.

3.14 Traffic Survey In order to appreciate the traffic and transport system characteristics traffic surveys have been conducted within

the study area. The brief methodology adopted, location, nature and extent of data collected under each of the

above-mentioned surveys is discussed below. The field data collection activities have been carried out in May &

June 2019.

The major roads in the study area include NH-15, SH-28, Gandhev to Bhaskar Road and Bhalikhal Udasar Road.

The survey have been conducted by collecting details on road characteristics by visual observation and

measurements.

The main objective of classified traffic volume counts was to assess the traffic characteristics in terms of average

daily traffic, hourly traffic variation, peak hour traffic, traffic composition and directional distribution. The surveys

were conducted manually, on a normal working day and weekend. The survey has been conducted continuously

for 24 hours. In order to express the intensity of traffic, it would be convenient to express all these different vehicle

types in single unit terms. For this purpose, the PCU factors (IRC 106:1990) have been adopted and are given in

the Table 3.14.

3.15 Ecological Environment This section establishes the baseline for the biological environment of the block on the basis of primary data

collected through field surveys and secondary data collated from the public domain. The area assessed for

baseline-establishment coincides with the area encompassed by the block boundary and is referred to in this

section as the Study Area. The scope of the baseline, in compliance with the applicable Terms of Reference (ToR),

covers the flora and fauna, protected areas and eco-sensitive areas with reference to the block.

Ecological Description of the Study Area

Geographically, the study area represents a part of the southern Thar Desert region, characterized by sandy or

gravelly plains and sand dunes. The northwestern quarter of the study area is dominated by partially consolidated

sand dunes, while the southeastern quarter is dominated by the fluvial terraces of the Luni River. The land generally

July,2019 AECOM

93

slopes towards the main stem of the Luni River, which flows more or less north-south, alongside the southeastern

boundary of the block.

Ecologically, the study area represents a tract of Tropical Thorn Forest vegetation. Localized vegetation profiles

are governed by local climatic variables, such as temperature, rainfall, humidity and wind, in combination with

edaphic attributes, such as salinity and porosity. The habitat profile of the study area includes near-natural habitats,

such as scrubland, grassland, stony desert, sandy desert, ponds, streams and rivulets, as well as, modified

habitats, such as habitation, cultivation, sylvicultural plantations, artificial wetlands, roads and canals. The species

profile of the study area includes many habitat-specialist species adapted to desert habitats, as also, some

generalist species favouring habitation.

Methodology of the Study

Primary Data

Primary data was collected at ten sampling sites selected by applying the stratified systematic sampling method.

Table 3-20 presents details of the sampling sites, including location code, location coordinates, elevation above

mean sea level (a.m.s.l.), nearest village or town and habitat-profile of each site. Map showing biodiversity sampling

In case of floristic species, qualitative and quantitative data was collected at each sampling site, using the standard

quadrat methodology. Quadrat sizes employed were 20m x 20m for trees, 5m x 5m for shrubs and 1m x 1m for

herbs. Only higher floristic species, namely angiosperms, were covered.

In case of faunal species, qualitative data have been collected mainly at each sampling site. Any species recorded

outside the sampling sites have been ascribed to the nearest sampling site. Faunal records are based on direct

sightings, as well as, indirect evidence, such as calls, burrows, nests, droppings or scats. Only higher faunal

species, namely vertebrates, including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fishes, were covered. Primary

data was collected through most of the diurnal period from early morning till late evening.

Secondary Data

Secondary data have been collated from suitable authenticated sources in the public domain. Sources of secondary

data mainly comprise of standard field guides, published research papers or articles, governmental publications

and websites of internationally recognized conservation organizations such as International Union for Conservation

of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN), Birdlife International, Conservation International, Wildlife Conservation

Society (WCS) and World Wildlife Fund (WWF). Supplementary information was obtained through informal

interactions with local communities.

Flora of the Study Area

The floristic baseline of the study area is based on the Forest Types identified within the study area, supported by

the primary floristic data recorded at the sampling sites.

This forest-type is found to occur at the ends of the range of the sub-group. It is associated with flat to undulating

land broken by hills or low hillocks. The associated soils are partly in situ, but mainly fluvial or aeolian deposits.

The typical form of this forest is associated with unstable sand in various stages of consolidation, while variant

forms develop on riverain strips or shifting sand. The typical form is composed of very scattered trees or shrubs

and characterized by an extremely open canopy. Consociations of certain species, notably Prosopis cineraria and

Vachellia senegal, are locally prominent.

3.16 Socioeconomic Environment A socio-economic assessment is a procedure, in which the positive and negative impacts on the people likely to

be directly and indirectly affected by the project was conducted along with other studies during the EIA. The

assessment facilitated an understanding of the needs, demands, preferences, capacities and constraints of the

people in the vicinity of the project operation. It was undertaken primarily to enhance the understanding of other

relevant factors such as social organizations and networks, livelihood patterns, social infrastructure etc. The

assessment attempts to predict and evaluate future impacts of project upon people, their physical and

psychological health and well-being, their economic facilities, cultural heritage, lifestyle and other value system and

helped in prioritizing Vedanta’s commitment towards the CER initiatives. Inputs from the social assessment into

the design phase facilitated in:

• Tracking potential adverse effects over different time frames and different activities

• Reviewing options to eliminate such negative impacts through design changes or mitigate them through specific

social protection or mitigation measures

• Reviewing options to extend or enhance benefits for the population in the vicinity of the project site.

Area of Influence

Study area for present study has been divided in two part i.e. Core area and Buffer Area based on the impact type

direct and indirect. Core area means the area where the local community and villages are mostly impacted both

negative and positive impact. Buffer area is just outside (within 2.5 km radius of the proposed well location) the

core area where local community and villages might be impacted due to spill over of impact outside the core area.

The villages, where the proposed well sites are located are considered as core area, and the villages within 2.5 km

radius of the core zone villages are considered as buffer area villages, for the present project. List of core zone

villages and buffer zone villages is presented in Table 3.27 and Table 3.28.

These villages are primarily selected based on reconnaissance surveys, census data information, topo sheet maps,

understanding of the project and professional judgment. The villages falling under the Core area and the Buffer

area for which socio-economic baseline assessment has been undertaken have been mentioned in table below:

3.16.1 Methodology for Socio-economic Study

The social assessment was primarily based on the analysis of the secondary data obtained from the census survey

2011 and Community consultations. Following tools were used for gathering information and validating secondary

data after considering nature of project operation and understanding the demographic characteristic of the area.

Secondary Data Analysis

To evaluate socio-economic environment in the study area, secondary information from the 2011 Census handbook

has been referred to and details pertaining to habitations in the study area have been extracted and assessed.

Stakeholder Consultation:

Stakeholder Identification

At the beginning of the EIA process, the AECOM team conducted a preliminary identification of probable

stakeholders. An inventory of actual / potential stakeholders, including local groups and individuals, local institutions

like the panchayats which may be directly or indirectly affected by the project or with interest in the development

activities of the region was made at preliminary.

Stakeholder Consultations

Consultations with community are a continuous process that was carried in the EIA process and would be continued

during the construction and operation phases of the project. Issues like land and resource damage, social

disturbance, severance and increased congestion, noise and air pollution, employment opportunities, need for

development of basic infrastructure, safe drinking water, sanitation facilities in the villages located in 2.5 Km

periphery were discussed during the consultations so that they can be adequately addressed through the

environment management plans. The consultations also helped in developing preliminary understanding of the

requirement of social development initiatives, which are required in the project village and may be undertaken as

part of the Vedanta’s CER activity.

Administrative set up

Barmer district lies in Western Rajasthan. The district falls under the Jodhpur administrative division. It is bounded

by Jaisalmer district, Pakistan and Jalore district in the north, west and south respectively. The district of Jodhpur

forms its eastern border. The district is divided into 4 sub-divisions – Barmer, Balotra, Sheo and Guda Malani; 8

tehsils – Barmer, Baytoo, Chohtan, Guda Malani, Panchapadra, Dhorimana, Sheo and Siwana encompassing

2,160 villages under 17 Panchayat Samitis.

Key stakeholder groups who were consulted during the site visit include Village head (Panchayet Pradhan),

Headmaster of schools, Doctors, if available in PHC, administrative officers and local people. Details of stakeholder

consultations undertaken during the site visit.

Key points of stakeholder consultation: Consultation with several group of stake holders, reveal the socio-economic issues, of the targeted villages:

• Most of the villages are facing the problem of drinking water.

• The water tanks which are made by Government are in bad condition and does not contain any drinking water.

Remaining source of drinking water is hand pump, but the water quality is not good and from the locals and

the Public Health Centre it has been confirmed, that the water is fluoride contaminated.

• RO units which has been set up by the government, most of the units are closed, due to lack of maintenance.

• Though the block has an access of canal, for irrigation purpose, but in summer season the water is not

available in the canal, only in winter season water flows through the canal. Most of the irrigation are done

from borewell source.

• Villagers have to buy water from other sources, which put a burden on their economy.

• Primary Health center is unavailable in most of the villages. Some village has the facility of primary health sub

centres.

• Unemployment is an emerging reason among the youths of the villages, which has been discussed during a

consultation with a group of young people.

• The facilities from governmental scheme are not thoroughly distributed, to all the villagers.

• Several death incidents of cattle have occurred during the summer season.

• Malaria, Dengue are the prevailing disease in this block.

4. Anticipated Environmental Impact and Mitigation Measures This chapter presents the identified environmental impacts due to the proposed project and outlines

alternatives any mitigation measures for minimizing adverse impacts.

4.1 Impact Assessment Methodology An environmental impact identification matrix has been developed to present an overview of possible interactions

between project aspects and components of the environment which may get affected. The matrix considers

physical, biological and socio-economic components of the environment on one axis (X axis) and activities of the

proposed drilling project on the other side (Y axis). Aspects and impacts on environmental components which would

be relevant to the different phases of the project e.g. pre-drilling activities, drilling, early production

decommissioning have been addressed in the matrix. Environmental and socio-economic components were

identified based on reviewing of applicable legislations project specific features and baseline environment, site

reconnaissance visits, discussions with stakeholders.

Potential environmental impacts that may result from any of the identified project activity has been identified in a

matrix based on activity-component interaction and is presented in Table 4.3. The impacts which has been

identified in the matrix have been assessed for its significance based on significance criteria delineated in Section

4.2 and 4.3.

4.2 Impact Criteria and Ranking Once all project environmental aspects were comprehensively identified for the different activities of the project,

the level of impact that may result from each of the activity-component interactions has been assessed based on

subjective criteria.

For this, three key elements have been taken into consideration based on standard environmental assessment

methodologies:

• Severity of Impact: Degree of damage that may be caused to the environmental components concerned;

• Extent of Impact: Geographical spread of impact around project location and corridors of activities; and

• Duration of Impact: Time for which impact lasts taking project life-cycle into account.

These elements have been ranked in three levels viz. 1 (low), 2 (moderate) and 3 (high) based on the following

criteria provided in Table 4.1:

Table 4.1 Impact Prediction Criteria

Impact

Elements Criteria Ranking

Severity • Regional impact resulting in long term and/ or medium damage to the natural

environment.

• Major impact on community and occupational health (e.g. serious injury, loss

of life) on account of accidental events viz. well blow-outs and related

operational activities.

3

• Local scale impact resulting in short term change and / or damage to the natural

environment.

• Temporary loss of land, source of livelihood for affected communities

• Local scale impact on terrestrial habitat, endangered species, drainage pattern

and community resources.

• Moderate impact on occupation and community health &well being (e.g. noise,

light, odour, dust, injuries to individuals)

2

• Limited local scale impact causing temporary loss of some species etc. 1

Impact

Elements Criteria Ranking

• Limited impact on human health and well-being (e.g. occasional dust, odour,

light, and traffic noise).

Extent • Regional scale impact and including impacts to physical, biological and socio-

economic environment of the block

3

• Largely local level impact limited to immediate vicinity of the proposed well sites 2

• Impact not discernible on a local scale and is limited within the boundaries of

the drill site

1

Duration • The impact is always likely to occur during the entire project life cycle. 3

• The impact is likely to occur in some phases of project life under normal

operating conditions.

2

• The impact is very unlikely to occur at all during project life cycle but may occur

in exceptional circumstances.

1

A positive or beneficial impact that may result from this project has not been ranked and has been depicted in the

form of ++.

4.3 Impact Significance The significance of impact has been determined based on a multiplicative factor of three element rankings. The

Table 4.2 depicts impact significance in a scale of LOW-MEDIUM-HIGH and would be used for delineation of

preventive actions, if any, and management plans for mitigation of impacts.

Impact significance has been determined considering measures which have been factored in the design and

planning phase of the project. Legal issues have been taken into account, wherever appropriate in the criterion

sets, to aid in Cairn Oil & Gas effort to comply with all relevant legislation and project HSE requirements.

Additionally, the results of quantitative impact prediction exercise, wherever undertaken, have also been fed into

the process.

To assist in determining and presenting significance of an impact, an impact evaluation matrix (Table 4.3) has been

developed based on the one developed for the impact identification exercise. In addition to ranked weights,

significance of impacts has been depicted using colour codes for easy understanding. In case an environmental

component is impacted by more than one project activity or the activity would impact a sensitive receptor e.g.

settlement, school, hospitals, forest etc. a high significance ranking of “>12” has been considered. A second

evaluation matrix presents significance of impacts after considering that proposed mitigation measures would be

implemented

The impacts on each of the environmental components and its significance during the different stages of the project

have been discussed in detail in the following section. This is followed by a point wise outline of mitigation measures

recommended.

4.4 Impact Assessment This section discusses the impacts of the project activities on the environmental receptors. It discusses probable

impacts during various phases of the project lifecycle on the environmental and socio-economic components.

Rankings for every activity – component interaction is based on the criterion set earlier and resulting environmental

significance with necessary justification that has been recorded below for every set of impacts and the same has

been represented in evaluation matrices. In broader context, it is however important to remember that operations

related to drilling, testing and early production activities also include positive socio-economic impacts in terms of

increase in local business opportunities and on a larger perspective, by providing potential energy security at a

national level.

4.5 Potential Impact and Mitigation Measures on

Visual Environment & Aesthetics Source of Impact: Aesthetics and visual environment impacts due to setting up of the proposed project would be

of low scale and temporary in nature. There would be no significant change in landuse. Only the drilling rig boom

with associated facilities including one flare stack and DG sets would be visible from the adjoining road and

settlement area. The land area of disturbance is also very less of the order of 9 Ha and the elevated rig would be

visible from a distance.

Mitigation Measures:

If no hydro-carbon is found from the well for economic recovery, then same would be closed and all supporting

facilities would be demobilized. The surface of earth after any unsuccessful attempts of oil exploration would be

restored back to normalcy in line with the prevailing land use status of the area.

4.6 Potential Impact and Mitigation Measures on

Land Use Source of impact: Land would be required for the drilling operations. In case of QPU the same drill site would be

used, and no new area would be procured.

Assessment of Impact

Site preparation

Potential impact on drainage is primarily anticipated in the form of disruption of natural drainage pattern during site

preparation and approach road construction. Since site preparation involves rising of acquired land to about 2 m

from the ground level it may lead to alteration of onsite micro-drainage pattern leading to potential problems of

obstruction of natural flow of water. Since the Block is located in the arid region of Barmer district the impacts may

not be pronounced during normal climatic conditions. This problem is likely would be further aggravated due to

flash floods experienced in the district.

The access to majority of the drill sites in RJ-ONHP-2017/1 is characterized by paved and unpaved rural roads.

Well specific environmental setting study shows that most of the wells can be approached by an existing road.

However, for site approach a road need would be constructed. Widening and strengthening of existing

paved/unpaved road would be required for transportation of drilling rig and heavy equipment to the well site.

Widening/ new construction of roads could result in the alteration of drainage unless proper cross drainage

structures are provided and may lead to water-logging of adjacent lands.

Well Site Restoration

Site restoration would be initiated for well site not indicative of any commercially exploitable hydrocarbon reserves.

Unplanned restoration may lead to the long-term disruption in natural drainage pattern and water logging in

neighbouring agricultural land abutting the site. However, adequate care would be taken by Vedanta Limited.

(Division Cairn Oil & Gas) to restore the site back to its original condition based on the originally existing contours

and predominant slope to prevent any such adverse drainage impacts. The impact is considered would be of

medium significance with onsite drainage being dependent on the proper site restoration.

Severity of Impact 2 Extent of Impact 1 Duration of Impact 2

Impact Significance = 4 i.e. Low

Mitigation Measure

• During the construction of the access road adequate cross drainage structures would be provided

considering the topography of the alignment.

• Leveling and grading operations would be undertaken with minimal disturbance to the existing

contour, thereby maintaining the general slope of site;

• Disruption/alteration of micro-watershed drainage pattern would be minimized to the extent possible.

• The excavated material from the drill site would be stored (temporarily /permanently) in uncultivated

land and would be away from any drainage channel.

4.7 Potential impact and Mitigation Measures on

Topography & Drainage

Potential impact on drainage and topography viz. alteration of drainage pattern are anticipated during well site

preparation, widening/strengthening of access roads and restoration of well facilities. The impact details have been

discussed in the below section.

Impacts during road & site development

The strengthening of the access road would require some earth works especially at the sharp bends. The existing

access road, culverts would not be disturbed. Thus, no change in the micro-drainage pattern along the access

roads is expected.

For drilling operations approximately 9 ha. land site would be required. The site would be selected taking

considering drainage pattern, thus during site preparation the cutting and filling would be limited. No change in the

micro-drainage pattern and slope of the areas in the vicinity of the site is expected. In case of unplanned disposal

of soils and other waste Blockage of local drainage channels can happen. Considering the above factors all these

impacts would be temporary (in construction phase only) are largely at local level.

Severity of Impact 2 Extent of Impact 1 Duration of Impact 2

Impact Significance = 8 i.e. Medium

Mitigation Measure • Leveling and grading operations would be undertaken with minimal disturbance to the existing contour,

thereby maintaining the general slope of site;

• Provision of drainage system would be made for surface run-off.

4.8 Potential Impact and Mitigation Measures on Air

Quality Source of Pollution: The probable sources of impact on ambient air quality during different phase of

the project are listed below.

• Pre-drilling phase:

o Site development/preparation;

o Operation of vehicles and construction machinery;

o Transportation, storage, handling of construction material, disposal of construction

waste;

o Operation of DG sets

• Drilling phase:

o Operation of DG sets;

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

118

o Emissions from flare stack;

o Transport of drilling chemical and manpower etc.

o Early production phase

• Quick/Early Production phase:

o GEG combustion stack

o Emission from Flare Stack when GEG is not under operation

• De-commissioning phase:

o Decommissioning of rig and associated facilities;

o Transport of de-mobilised rigs and machineries

Control Measures: Project design stage control measures are as follows:

• Vehicle, equipment and machinery used for drilling would conform to applicable emission norms;

• Drilling chemical and materials would be stored in covered areas to prevent fugitive emissions;

• GEG/DG set stacks would have adequate height, as per statutory requirements, would be able

to adequately disperse exhaust gases; and

• Flare stacks of adequate height would be provided.

Assessment of Impact: The potential impact due to above mentioned activities has been discussed

in the following section.

Fugitive emission: Fugitive dust emissions due to the proposed project would be principally associated

with emissions of dust during the site preparation. The dust generated would be primarily from the

handling and transportation of fill material and re-entrainment of dust during movement of the vehicles

on unpaved roads. The generation of such fugitive dust is likely would be governed by micro-

meteorological conditions (wind speed and direction). Effects of dust emissions are heightened by dry

weather and high wind speeds and effectively reduced to zero when soils and/or ambient conditions

are wet. However, dust generated from the site development and construction activity would be

generally settle down on the adjacent areas within a short period due to its larger particle size.

Emissions from Vehicles/Equipment: The pre-drilling, drilling and decommissioning operations

would involve movement of diesel operated vehicles and operation of machineries and equipment.

Heavy vehicles would be particularly intense during site preparation and decommissioning phases.

Gaseous pollutants such as NO2, SO2, are likely would be emitted from operation of vehicles and

machineries.

Impacts from Operation of DG sets and Flaring: The proposed project would involve the operation

of two diesel driven 1000 KVA generators for drilling of each exploratory wells. Combustion of fuel in a

DG sets typically happens at high temperatures resulting in generation of considerable amounts of NO2.

The SO2 concentration in emissions is dependent on the Sulphur content in fuel burnt and particulate

matter consisting of unburnt carbon particles. The emissions from the DG set would be discharged into

the atmosphere through a stack of height adequate.

Impact during the Drilling Phase

Flaring of gases primarily during the drilling testing phase would contribute to additional air pollution.

Flaring involves high temperature oxidation process to burn combustible gases that may be generated

from the proposed well sites. The pollutant of concern from flaring would be NOx and SO2.

For prediction of Ground Level Concentrations (GLCs) at various distances from the sources of the

above-mentioned pollutants, an air modelling exercise has been undertaken which is discussed in the

impact prediction section below.

The input parameters considered in the impact prediction modelling undertaken using AERMOD is

given in Table 4.4. Prediction of impacts on air environment has been carried out by AERMOD.

Presentation of Results

The predicted ground level concentrations (GLC) have been estimated at various receptor locations at

500 m interval in a grid of 20*20 km around the project drill site. The 24-hrly incremental concentrations

have been predicted for the entire year. The results for SO2, NO2 and PM10 are presented in Table-

4.2. The isopleths for SO2, NO2 and PM10 ground level concentrations are depicted in Figure-57, 58,

59,60,and 61 respectively.

Resultant Concentrations after implementation of the Project

The maximum incremental 24 hourly GLCs due to the proposed project for SO2, NO2 and PM10 are

superimposed on the maximum baseline SO2, NO2 and PM10 concentrations recorded during the

primary study. The resultant concentrations (baseline + incremental) after implementation of the project

are tabulated below in Table-4.5

The rise in ground level concentrations would be practically negligible and the fallout would be mostly

occurring within a radius of 500 m. The maximum GLCs for SO2, NO2 and PM10 after implementation

of the proposed project would be well within the prescribed standards for rural and residential areas.

Based on the above details, it can be inferred that proposed project would have an insignificant

impact on the prevailing ambient air quality status.

Impacts during the Early Production (EP) stage:

During the EP phase there would be only one point source emission from GEG combustion stack.

There would be no other point sources except a standby DG set which would be operated as backup

power source when the GEG is not operating. The flue gases from the GEG would be vent out through

a stack of 30 m in to the atmosphere. The emission of flue gas from GEG stack has been modelled

with the following emission details presented in table 4.6.

Results During the GEG Operation

At the time of early production, due to the GEG operation, the incremental GLCs of NO2 and SO2 are

0.18 µg/m3and 0.005 µg/m3, therefore the incremental GLC of NO2 and SO2 would be again

practically negligible. There would be no adverse impact in the site surrounding air environment.

• Carry out regular water sprinkling at the site during dry season especially during the construction

and decommissioning activities;

• Proper handling of materials to ensure minimal emission of dust.

To minimise emission from the vehicles, equipment and machinery the following measures

would be adopted:

• Movement of construction vehicles would be minimised and a limited speed will be enforced along

the access and approach roads;

• All diesel-powered equipment would be regularly maintained, and idling time reduced to minimise

emissions;

• Low sulphur diesel would be used in diesel powered equipment;

• Vehicle / equipment air emissions would be controlled by good practice procedures (such as turning

off equipment when not in use); and

To minimise the adverse impacts of flaring the following measures should be adopted:

• Proper engineering controls to ensure complete combustion of gas;

• No cold venting of raw natural gas would be resorted; instead flaring would be done with combustion

efficient elevated flare tip; and

• Location of flare stacks to be chosen considering the sensitive receptors adjoining the site.

4.9 Potential Impact and Mitigation Measures on

Noise Quality Potential impact on noise quality is anticipated from vehicular movement, operation of construction machinery,

access road strengthening during well site preparation and operation of drilling rig and ancillary equipment during

drilling operation and early production.

Source of Impact:

The potential impacts on noise quality may arise out of the following:

• Pre-drilling phase:

─ Site development/ preparation;

─ Operation of vehicles and construction machinery;

─ Transportation, storage, handling of construction material, disposal of construction waste;

─ Operation of DG sets.

• Drilling phase:

─ Operation of DG sets and drilling rig

─ Operation of machineries & equipment;

─ Vehicular traffic.

• Decommissioning phase:

─ Demobilization activity

─ Vehicular traffic.

• Quick/Early Production:

─ Flaring of the Gas

─ Operation DG/GEG sets

127

Assessment of Noise Impacts due to Site Activities

Driller rotors and the power generators and pumps would be the main sources of noise pollution during the drilling

activity. Noise due to vehicular movement would be intermittent but would also add to the background noise levels.

The well site during excavation phase of the site preparation where heavy earth moving machinery would be in

operation, noise level of the vehicle should not be more than the 90 dB (A).

Typically, the noise generating sources for the onshore drilling activity are provided below (in the immediate vicinity)

• GEG/Diesel Generator: 75 dB(A)

• Pumps at the Rig: 85 to 90 dB(A)

• Mud pumps: 73.3-80.5 dB(A)

• Control Room & Quarters: 50 to 60 dB(A)

• Drilling: 85-90 dB(A)

• Flaring: 86.0 dB(A)

In order to predict ambient noise levels due to the proposed drilling of exploratory wells. The preparative modeling

has been done. For computing the noise levels at various distances with respect to the proposed site, noise levels

are predicted using an user friendly model the details of which is elaborated below.

Attenuation of Sound Wave Propagation During Operational phase

For an approximate estimation of attenuation of noise in the ambient from the source point, a standard

mathematical model for sound wave propagation is used. The sound pressure level generated by noise sources

decreases with increasing distance from the source due to wave divergence. An additional decrease in sound

pressure level with distance from the source is expected due to atmospheric effect or its interaction with objects in

the transmission path.

For hemispherical sound wave propagation through homogenous loss free medium, one can estimate noise levels

at various locations, due to different sources using model based on first principles, as per the following equation

Lp2 =Lp1-20log (r2 /r1) (1)

Where Lp2 and Lp1 are Sound Pressure Levels (SPLs) at points located at distances r2 and r1 from the source.

The combined effect of all the sources then can be determined at various locations by the following equation.

Lp(total) = 10 x LOG10 (SUM[10^(L1/10) + 10^(L2/10) … (2)

Where, Lp1, Lp2, Lp3 are noise pressure levels at a point due to different sources. Based on the above

equations an user friendly model has been developed. The details of the model are as follows:

• Noise levels can be predicted at any distance specified from the source;

• Model is designed to take topography or flat terrain;

• Coordinates of the sources in meters;

• Maximum and Minimum levels are calculated by the model;

• Output of the model in the form of isopleths; and

• Environmental attenuation factors and machine corrections have not been incorporated in the model but

corrections are made for the measured Leq levels.

Input for the Model

The incremental increase in noise levels due to the operation/site preparation phase of the exploratory drilling

has been done. Noise levels are mainly generated from DG sets, air compressors, pumps and transformers. The

noise sources have been defined with respect to centre of drill site. The input data pertaining to corresponding

noise level are tabulated in table 4.7.

The model results are discussed below and are represented through line chart in Figure-1. The

Further, considering drilling would be a continuous operation, noise generated from aforesaid equipment has the

potential to cause discomfort to the local community’s community residing in proximity of the rig facility. So

settlements located close to majority of the wells would face discomfort due to drilling operation.

Occupational health and safety impacts viz. Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) is also anticipated on personnel

working close to such noise generating equipment. However, drilling activities would be undertaken for short

duration and necessary noise prevention and control measures viz. provisions for proper PPEs, regular preventive

maintenance of equipment etc. would be implemented by the proponent to reduce the noise impact on the

communities residing in proximity to the well sites

Figure 62. Predicted Noise Level

Severity of Impact 2 Extent of Impact 2 Duration of Impact 1

Impact Significance = 4 i.e. Medium

Mitigation Measures:

Typical mitigation measures for noise would include the following:

• Installation of adequate engineering control on equipment and machinery (like mufflers & noise

enclosures for DG sets and mud pumps) to reduce noise levels at source, carrying out proper

maintenance.

• Providing a green buffer at the fence line of the well pad site facing the sensitive receptors to further

attenuate the noise propagation beyond the well pad boundary

• Providing Personnel Protective Equipment (PPEs) like ear plugs/muffs to workers at site.

• 100 meters buffer area from the boundary of the well pad would be maintained to prevent uncalled

disturbances due to noise generations on the sensitive area such as school buildings, primary health

center, etc particularly during operation phase.

• The DG set would be kept in an acoustic enclosure with noise conformance labelling as per CPCB

standards.

• Periodical monitoring of noise level within 500 mts buffer area around well pad.

• Undertaking preventive maintenance of vehicles to reduce noise levels

4.10 Potential Impact and Mitigation Measures on Surface Water

Quality

Surface run-off discharge

Site clearance and stripping of top soil during construction phase/ site preparation phase would result in an increase

in soil erosion potential leading to an increased sediment load in the surface run-off during monsoon. Also, surface

run off from drilling waste (cuttings and drilling mud), hazardous waste (waste oil, used oil etc) and chemical storage

areas may lead to the pollution of receiving water bodies viz. natural drainage channels etc unless precautionary

measures are adopted. However, considering the provision of onsite drainage system, sediment control measures,

provision of oil water separator would aid discharging of surface run off in compliance with the CPCB Inland Water

Discharge Standards, the impact is considered would be of low significance.

Mitigation Measures

• Proper treatment of all wastewater and produced water and any water discharge from well site

would comply with CPCB Inland Water Discharge Standards for Oil and Gas Industries

• Waste mud would be stored in the HDPE lined pit

• Drainage and sediment control systems at the well site would be efficiently designed

4.11 Potential Impact and Mitigation Measures on

Ground Water Resource Source of Impacts: In absence of supply of surface water resource, the potential impacts on groundwater resource

would be due to ground water abstracted for domestic needs and for civil construction activities. Potential impact

on ground water resource could arise due to:

• Predrilling phase,

─ Water required for construction of drill sites

• Drilling phase

Embedded Control Measures

• Water requirement would be sourced locally through approved/ authorised sources.

Potential impacts on groundwater resources that could arise as a result of the proposed drilling activities include

the following:

The water requirement for all the project activities would be sourced locally through approved/authorized sources

of surface water and/or ground water (e.g. PHD bore wells, privately owned bore wells, irrigation Dept./Water

Resources Dept. of State Govt.). In case, required water could not be sources from locally available approved

sources, ground water would be extracted after obtaining permission from CGWA/State Govt.

As per the Ground Water Information by CGWB, in general, quality of ground water in Barmer deteriorates from

upland and hilly tracts towards Luni River and its tributaries in the lower reaches and also in depressions in the

vicinity of the saline lake.

Considering drilling would be a temporary activity (approx 90 days) the impact on ground water resource is

considered would be low. In case of QPU the water requirement would reduce and thus the impacts would reduce

even though the duration of the activity would be longer.

Severity of Impact 2 Extent of Impact 2 Duration of Impact 1

Impact Significance = 4 i.e. Medium

Mitigation Measures

• All water stored in the drill sites would be kept covered in leak proof tank ;

4.12 Potential Impact and Mitigation Measures on

Soil Quality Potential impact on soil quality is envisaged in the form of increase in soil erosion and loss of soil fertility resulting

from site clearance and top soil stripping during well site preparation. The impact from accidental spillage resulting

from storage and handling of mud chemicals is also envisaged.

Source of Impact: Soil quality impacts can result from:

• Pre-drilling Phase

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

─ Removal of top soil from the land procured;

─ Compaction of soil;

─ Disposal of construction waste/ MSW in non-designated area;

─ Spillage of chemical/oil on open soil;

─ Surface runoff from material & waste storage areas and oil spillage area.

• Drilling Phase/Operation of Production facilities:

─ Spillage of chemical, spent mud, hazardous waste, etc.;

─ Surface runoff from waste storage area and spillage area.

• Decommissioning Phase:

─ Disposal of decommissioning waste materials in open soil.

Embedded Control Measures: The project embedded control measures are as follows:

• The drill cuttings and spent drilling mud would be generated at site per well during drilling operations. This

would be stored in well-designed HDPE line pit. And would be disposed as per the guideline of GSR &

HWM rules.

• Topsoil would be removed and stored separately.

Soil quality impacts so identified have been assessed and evaluated in the section below.

Site clearance and stripping of top soil

As discussed in the baseline section, the soil of RJ-ONHP-2017/1 Block is characterized by sandy soil. This soil is

poor in terms of fertility. However, to preserve the topsoil stripping of topsoil has been planned before the start of

construction activity at the drill site to reduce the impact on the already poor fertility of the land. It is estimated that

about 15 – 20% of topsoil would be removed from entire area. However, such impact is considered would be

temporary as the proper reinstatement of site would be undertaken by Vedanta Limited. (Division Cairn Oil & Gas)

in case the wells are not indicative of any commercially exploitable hydrocarbon reserves. Necessary surface run-

off control measures would be adopted by the proponent during construction phase to prevent sediment flow to

abutting agricultural land. Further specific mitigation measures would be implemented by Vedanta Limited. (Cairn

Oil & Gas) to stabilize the topsoil and to preserve their fertility characteristics during site restoration. The impact is

therefore considered to be of medium significance.

Sourcing of borrow material

The drill sites would also be raised. Site preparatory activities would involve the sourcing of earth-fill from borrow

areas. Since in most of the cases efforts would be made to procure the fill material from nearby existing borrow

areas/ quarries the impact is considered would be of low significance.

Storage and disposal of drill cuttings and drilling mud

It is estimated that nearly about 250-750 tons/well of drill cuttings associated with WBM 500 - 1500 tons/well of drill

cuttings associated with SBM, 250 - 500 tons/well of Spent/Residual Drilling Mud, 250 - 500 tons/well of Sludge

containing oil & other drilling wastes are likely to be generated from each well during drilling operation., As an

embeded mitigation measures HDPE lined impervious pits would be constructed at each of the drill sites for

temporary storage of drill cuttings and drilling fluid. The disposal of the drill cuttings and the drilling mud would be

carried out in accordance with “CPCB Oil & Extraction Industry Standard – Guidelines for Disposal of Solid Wastes”

no significant impact to this regard is envisaged.

Storage and handling of fuel and chemicals

Fuels, lubricants and chemical used for the drilling operations (especially daily consumption) would be stored at

site. In addition spent lube, and waste oil would also be stored temporarily at site before it is disposed as per the

regulatory requirements. Improper storage and handling of the chemicals and fuels, spent lubricants can lead to

contamination of soil . Accidentally, spillage of chemicals, oil and lubricants, either during transportation or handling,

on soil may contribute to soil contamination. Considering the accidental nature of the event the impact is considered

would be of low significance.

July,2019 AECOM

133

Embeded controls has been considered in the project design to reduce the impact on soil. Also, most of these

impacts on the soil fertility is reversible as the drill sites would be reinstated after the drilling. The contamination of

soil due to spillage of chemical and fuel is likely to happen only in case of accidents. Thus the significance of the

impact is medium

Severity of Impact 2 Extent of Impact 2 Duration of Impact 2

Impact Significance = 8 i.e. Medium

Mitigation Measures:

The following mitigation measures are proposed for reducing impact on soil quality:

• The top soil would be stored suitably;

• Manage spills of contaminants on soil using spill kits;

• Storage of construction waste/ MSW in designated areas within drill sites/production facilities;

• Testing of drill cutting to determine if they are hazardous in nature and accordingly planning for their

disposal.

4.13 Potential Impact and Mitigation Measures on

Road & Traffic During various phases of projects like construction, drilling, early production and decommissioning various types

of vehicle / equipment movement would be involved. The vehicular movement is expected to be more in

construction/ site preparation phase due to movement of machinery & manpower.

Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) would ensure that traffic management plan is implemented so that

proper vehicular movement is done with minimal disturbance to nearby communities. The impacts would be for

limited duration. Thus, the impacts are temporary in nature and limited mostly within the drill site.

Severity of Impact 2 Extent of Impact 1 Duration of Impact 2

Impact Significance = 4 i.e. Medium

Mitigation Measures

• Road safety awareness programs/campaign would be organized in coordination with concerned

authorities

• Entry of vehicles into the drilling site area is prohibited except for material movement.

• Adequate parking would be provided outside the drilling location.

4.14 Potential Impact and mitigation Measures on

Terrestrial Ecological Environment Potential impact on Ecological environment i.e impacts on existing Floral and faunal diversity is envisaged

particularly during Site preparation phase and operation phase. The potential impacts on terrestrial Ecology in

Site preparation and operational phase is given below.

Source of Impact:

The Potential Impacts on the existing floral and faunal diversity may arise due to following activities

1. Vegetation Clearance.

2. Illimitation from Site.

3. Fugitive Dust Emission

4. Generation of Noise

Impact Assessment:

Vegetation Clearance

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

134

It is proposed to develop 29 exploratory and appraisal well in Block RJ-ONHP-2017/01 which mainly agricultural

land. Besides this some well locations are also located in fallow land, Scrubland. During primary survey, it has been

observed that removal of ground vegetation is required for site preparation.

The vegetation observed in the study area is common to these climatological conditions and no endangered floral

species is observed in the study area. Further the distribution of vegetation is scattered in nature and no well is

located inside any forest land. Clearance of vegetation for site preparation would not require cutting of any mature

trees. It is observed that approximately 3 ha land is required for each drill site and clearance of only shrubs and

herbs are required. Therefore, the scale of Impact can be considered as low, extent of impact within site. The

clearance of vegetation would initiate the change in land use. So, overall impacts would be low.

Generation of Noise and Illumination from site

It is anticipated that noise would be generated particularly during the construction period and various operational

activities from the drilling site. It is expected to get attenuated to baseline level of noise within 200-300 m from the

proposed drilling locations. It is also found during the field visit and confirmed by the Forest Department of

Government of Rajasthan that there is no ecologically sensitive area such as National Park, Wild Life Sanctuary in

the Block area, the potential impacts on existing wildlife due to generation of noise can be considered as low.

The drill site would be illuminated during both construction and operational phase as drilling would be conducted

continuously for 24 hrs and thus may cause significant disturbance to local faunal population particularly avifauna.

Severity of Impact 2 Extent of Impact 1 Duration of Impact 2

Impact Significance = 4 i.e. Low

Mitigation Measures

A range of measures would be adopted during construction and drilling phase to mitigate the potential impacts of

terrestrial ecology and biodiversity which are described below:

• The working area would always be kept minimum.

• The vegetation removal should minimum met the need for the project area. For felling of trees prior approval

from forest department shall be obtained;

• Appropriate shading of lights to prevent unwanted scattering.

• Plantation of Local tree plantation should be undertaken;

• Fencing would be done on the camp site to avoid any unfortunate encounter with faunal species

4.15 Potential Impact and Mitigation Measures on

Socioeconomic Environment The impacts on the socio-economic environment are both adverse as well as positive in nature. The adverse

impacts are primarily due to: Inconvenience due to dust and noise. Disruption or damage to public infrastructure

due to construction related activities

Assessment of Impact

The impact on different aspects of the socio-economic environment is discussed as under.

Livelihood

The proposed well sites would be located primarily on temporary fallow and would be at a distance from the well.

Approximately, 9 ha land would be required per well for proposed drilling activity. Even though agricultural land

would be used since the agricultural activities are poor due to scanty rainfall in the region. Thus, the severity of

the impact would be low and loss of livelihood for the locals would be also low.

July,2019 AECOM

135

Additional Demand on Infrastructure

The width of some of the access and approach roads are not wide enough to support the movement of heavy

vehicles to drill site, hence they have to be widened and strengthened. Transportation of drilling rig and associated

facilities to drill and decommissioning of rig and associated structure would increase traffic movement. Increase in

vehicular fleet may cause damage to road infrastructure if not properly maintained. The strengthening and widening

of the existing road would reduce the significance of impact from medium to low.

Influx of Population

Influx of population is anticipated in all stages of the project cycle particularly during exploratory drilling. The drill

site would involve the operation of about 50 onsite workers during drilling phase. Interaction between workers with

villagers of nearby areas might give rise to various issues like conflict of workers with the local population, nuisance

caused by workers due to improper sanitation facilities, etc. However, considering that majority of the workforce

during construction phase is likely would be sourced from local villages chances of such conflicts are negligible.

Employment opportunities

Project would benefit people living in the neighbouring villages temporarily by creating opportunity for direct &

indirect employment associated with the various project activities. Site preparation phase would involve certain

number of laborers and there is a possibility that local people can be engaged for this purpose. Drilling process

would involve a number of skilled and unskilled workers. Generation of short time employment opportunities during

the project phase would improve the employment scenario of the area.

Cultural & Heritage Site

Impact on cultural environment may occur due to site preparation, operation of drilling rig and also during vehicular

movement with respect to the proposed exploration activities. There are no designated historical or cultural spots

close to the well sites or access roads hence; no impact in this regard is envisaged.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) has taken up various CSR initiatives in and around present operational

areas for the benefit of the residents as per the CSR Act and Rules, Govt. of India.

CSR measures will be taken up by Vedanta Limited. (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) in case of commercially viable

hydrocarbon discovery & further full-fledged development of the fields and production and associated facilities.

Mitigation Measures

• The shortest distance would be considered for access road, with additional care to avoid division of land

parcels into agriculturally unviable fractions;

• The village road identified for accessing proposed project footprints, would be strengthened and widened as

per requirement.

• Appropriate awareness program on grievance redressal mechanism, would be designed and implemented

for local community around proposed project footprints;

Impact Significance = ++ i.e. POSITIVE

4.16 Potential Impact and Mitigation Measures on

Occupational Health and Safety Construction/ Site Preparation

Source of Impact Occupational health and safety impacts during construction/ site preparetion. Site preparation

phase are anticipated primarily from:

• Operation of construction machineries/equipment;

• Exposure to high noise generation areas.

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

136

Embedded Control Measures The project embedded control measures are as follows:

• Provision of proper PPEs for the contractor workers onsite;

• Provision of drinking water facility, sanitation and cooking facilities.

Assessment of Impact

Impact on occupational health and safety of contractor workers is anticipated from exposure to high noise

generated from operation of heavy machinery/equipment and fugitive dust generated from material stockpiles,

earth works and vehicular emission. It is estimated that about 50-60 workers would be deployed by the contractor

at each drill site and 10-20 workers in the production facility. The outstation project workforce would be housed in

labour camp located within the drill site. Continuous exposure of workers to high noise levels and fugitive dust and

inadequate facilities and unhygienic conditions at such camps may lead to adverse health impacts viz. headache,

asthma, allergy, hearing loss etc. indicating a high receptor sensitivity. However, extent of the impact would be

limited to the well site and production facility only hence the impact would be localized only. Also considering the

temporary nature of the construction phase activities, operation of machinery/equipment would be short term and

with provision of proper PPEs and training for the workers scale of the impact would be low. Hence, the impact

magnitude for occupation health and safety due to above mentioned construction activities have been assessed

would be of medium and significance would be moderate.

Operational Phase

Source of Impact: The source of occupational health and safety could arise from:

• Operation of rig and machineries,

• Exposure in high noise generation area.

Embedded control measures: The control measures are as follows:

• All potential occupational health hazards would be identified;

• Permit to work system would be in place;

• Provision of PPEs to all workers.

Assessment of Impact:

Major occupational health hazards encountered in proposed drilling activity would include noise from drilling activity,

operation of heavy vehicles and machinery, handing of chemicals etc. both in drill site and production facility.

Drilling Activity

Continuous exposure of workers involved in drill activity to high noise levels may lead to adverse health impacts

viz. headache, hearing loss etc. which indicates a high receptor sensitivity. It is under stood that extent of the

impact would be limited to the well site only hence the impact would be local. As the drilling activity would be

continuous of maximum period of up to 3 months and intermittent operation of machinery/equipment duration would

be short term and with provision of proper PPEs and training of the workers scale of the impact would be low and

magnitude of the impact would be small. Hence, the impact significance of occupation health and safety due to

above mentioned construction activities is assessed to be moderate

Quick Production Unit/Early Production Unit

Main impact on occupational health safety in production facility would limited to operation of heavy vehicles and

machinery, handing of chemicals etc. However, involved of the personal in a production facility per shift is maximum

up to 10 persons and it is understood that they would be trained. Hence, the resource sensitivity would be medium.

As all the activity of production facility would be carried out within secure premises extent of impact would be

local.As the risk level of a production facility is high as it is handling highly inflammable hydrocodone embedded

control of any production facility is very strong so the scale of the impact would be medium. Hence, the magnitude

of the impact would be medium and significant of the impact is assessed to be Medium.

Severity of Impact 2 Extent of Impact 2 Duration of Impact 2

Impact Significance = 8 i.e. Medium

Mitigation measures: The mitigation measures are as follows:

• Periodic onsite surveillance to be conducted so that the workers use the designated PPEs all the time;

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

137

• Health surveillance would be conducted of personnel working in the aforesaid areas;

• Regular health and safety training to be provided to workers.

• Exposure of workers operating near high noise generating sources would be reduced to the extent possible;

4.17 Potential Impact and mitigation Measures on

Community Health & Safety Community health and safety of inhabitants residing close to the drilling site stands to get affected from frequent

heavy vehicular movement along village access roads and due to noise from drilling rig operations.

Ensuring Public Safety

Since the project involves the movement of heavy vehicles and machinery in the area, the issue of public safety of

the villagers, especially children, is an important concern. During the drilling phase and for the rest of the project

activities proper safety measures would be undertaken both for transportation as well as the other operations. The

drill site would be fenced and gates would be constructed so that the local people are refrained from straying into

the site.

The movement of traffic is also likely to disturb access conditions of the inhabitants residing close to the access

road. The increase in traffic would have implications on their safety too, as well as create congestion, potential

delays and inconvenience for pedestrians.

Health and safety impact arising from technological emergencies viz. well blow outs, explosions would be dealt

separately in the Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) section.

Although the aforesaid activities are temporary in nature it may not adversely affect community health and safety

in the long term. Mitigation measures would be taken as outlined in environmental management plan to reduce the

impacts arising out of project activities.

Severity of Impact 2 Extent of Impact 2 Duration of Impact 2

Impact Significance = 8 i.e. Medium

Mitigation Measures:

• Drilling activities should be under proper fencing

• Proper hoardings in English and local language should be displayed during construction and operation

phase to prevent people from encroaching the fenced area or to make them aware of the danger associated

with the construction would

• Traffic management plan would be developed and implemented at site.

5. Analysis of Alternative Consideration of alternatives to a project proposal is a requirement of the EIA process. During the scoping process,

alternatives to a proposal can be considered or refined, either directly or by reference to the key issues identified.

A comparison of alternatives helps to determine the best method of achieving the project objectives with minimum

environmental impacts or indicate the most environmentally friendly and cost-effective options. The consideration

of alternatives is most useful when the EIA is undertaken early in the projects cycle. The type and range of

alternatives open for consideration include:

• Site alternatives (e.g. advantage of proposed site, details of any other sites, if explored, etc)

• Input or supply alternatives (e.g. use of raw materials, sourcing, etc)

• Technology alternatives (e.g. feasibility of different technologies available and advantage of proposed

technology, etc)

After analysis of the various factors the most environmentally compatible alternative is selected. Reference may

be made to available technologies, policy objectives, social attitudes, environmental and site constraints, projects

economic etc.

This section provides an analysis of alternatives in relation to the conception and planning phase of the project.

This includes the following:

5.1 No Project Scenario The no project scenario has been analyzed to understand what would be reasonably expected to occur in near

future if the proposed development drilling of hydrocarbons and production of hydrocarbon are not conducted in

the area. In such a scenario, there would not be any pressure on use of local resources and infrastructure, and no

adverse effect on local ecology or incremental pollution to baseline environmental Aspects viz. air, water and noise

levels. At the same time, there would not be any positive impact on socioeconomic status of the area resulting from

direct/ indirect employment and economic benefits that such a project can provide. With no project scenario,

dependence of the Nation on import of crude oil and demand for foreign exchange would continue undesirable.

5.2 Alternatives for Project Site The Block is allocated by the Government of India under the Revenue Sharing Contract (RSC). Vedanta Limited.

(Division Cairn Oil & Gas) would be the Operator for this Block. Drilling locations are proposed based on geo-

scientific information of the specific Block site available with MoPNG and alternate sites cannot be considered for

the proposed project facilities due to the following reasons:

The location is within the RSC boundary of the Block. The surface locations of all wells have been tentatively

selected considering the drilling configuration (reach to potential reservoirs).

5.3 Alternatives for Well Location The seismic data interpretation of the seismic survey would decide the exact locations of the drilling well. The

proposed exploratory well site have been identified based on the study and interpretation of the stratigraphy and

already available seismic data. Within the identified location the actual well drilling site would be selected based

on the following factors:

• Located as far as possible from the nearest human habitation or sensitive receptors.

• Ensure natural drainage channels are avoided or drainage channels rerouted along the periphery to ensure

unhindered flow of rain / flood water. Wherever necessary adequate erosion control measures would be

provided

5.4 Alternative of Technology The technical and process related alternatives are discussed in the following section.

5.5 Use of Water and Synthetic Mud During drilling operation, drilling mud would be used, which is essential to lubricate and cool drill bits, removal of

drilled rock (i.e. cuttings) from the bottom of the hole and transporting it to the surface and maintaining hydrostatic

head in the well to counter natural formation pressures.

Drilling mud is basically a suspension / mixture of solids suspended in a liquid phase, which is blended with clays,

polymers, salts and weighting agents. The main component/ solvent of drilling fluid are water, oil or synthetic and

accordingly they are called as oil-based, water-based, and synthetic-based muds (OBMs, WBMs, and SBMs). All

the three types of muds have certain advantages and disadvantages as discussed below.

Though the WBMs is a least cost option and widely used but is not found efficient in high temperature and also for

water sensitive substrata, i.e., shales and mud. To overcome these limitations, OBM and SBM are used and of the

two, SBM is preferred choice and it may be used in different set of environment like high temperatures, hydratable

shales, high-angle, extended-reach wells, high-density mud and drilling through salt.

Note:- 1: Preferable, 2: Less Preferable, 3: Least Preferable

The WBM produces large quantity of drill waste as the mud is not recyclable. Moreover, the clay in WBM absorbs

water and expands to disperse into the drilling fluid. These fine clay particles increase mud viscosity and inhibit its

upward flow. To lower the mud viscosity, water is added to lower the concentration of fine solids and mud products

are added to give the drilling fluid the correct density and flow properties. As a result, large volumes of mud are

produced and would be discharged as waste. On the other hand, the OBM and SBM are recycled several times

and only drill cutting are disposed off.

The water requirement of SBM is highest as compared to OBM and WBM. Though, OBM are considered more

efficient and has wider application in different conditions but recently their use is restricted due to environmental

considerations. OBM are considered toxic due to the use of hydrocarbons as solvents and need a proper disposal

through land fill. The water based muds are considered safest in this regard followed by SBM.

If all the three types of mud are compared on the drill time, SBM is far superior then OBM and WBM. The less drill

time mean shorter operation and hence less emissions from various drilling equipments and limited engagement

of workforce.

The SBMs have the potential to drill wells more quickly and efficiently than WBMs, while avoiding some of the

disposal costs and environmental difficulties associated with OBMs.

Water based mud would be used for initial, shallower sections where massive shales are not encountered. The

deeper and difficult to drill formations would be drilled using synthetic base mud (SBM). Synthetic base mud unlike

oil based mud (OBM) is biodegradable but can be re-used. At the end of drilling a well almost the entire amount of

the SBM is collected for re-use in next drilling operation. SBM systems promote good hole cleaning and cuttings

suspension properties.

5.6 Conclusion This proposed project is of national importance as it has potential to achieve enhanced fuel security and save on

FOREX reserve expenditure. The proposed project would have positive benefits in terms of revenue generation to

state and central government as well as increase in job opportunities of primary and secondary types.

Site selection would be carried out taking into consideration the nearest habitation, proximity to any sensitive

receptor and natural drainage.

In addition, Vedanta Limited (Cairn Oil & Gas) would ensure that the final site selection is made after due

consideration to all environmental conditions as mentioned earlier. Also, use of alternate technology to avoid

sensitive locations would be made to the extent possible. Consideration of these alternatives with strict compliance

to the Environment Management and Monitoring Plans suggested in the next chapter would ensure minimal

adverse impact on the Environment.

6. Environmental Monitoring Programme

Periodic monitoring of environmental parameters is of immense importance to assess the status of environment

during pre-drilling, drilling and post drilling stages. With the knowledge of baseline conditions, the monitoring

programme would serve as an indicator for any deterioration in environmental conditions due to operation of the

project, to enable taking up suitable mitigatory steps in time to safeguard the environment. Monitoring is as

important as that of control of pollution since the efficiency of control measures can only be determined by

monitoring.

Usually, as in the case of the study, an Impact Assessment study is carried over short period of time and the data

cannot bring out all variations induced by the natural or human activities. Therefore, periodic monitoring programme

of the environmental parameters is essential to take into account the seasonal variation and changes in the

environmental quality due to project operations.

6.1 Object of Monitoring The objectives of monitoring are to:

• Verify effectiveness of planning decisions;

• Measure effectiveness of operational procedures;

• Confirm statutory and corporate compliance; and

• Identify unexpected changes.

6.2 Monitoring Schedule Periodic environmental monitoring schedules are prepared covering various phases of project advancement. This

comprises the duration of proposed exploratory drilling as well as post-drilling phase, when the hydrocarbon is

established in the wells and production program is undertaken as well as the Decommissioning/Closure Phase. In

order to assess the extent and nature of impacts on environment due to drilling operations, the monitoring on

various attributes of environment would be carried out during various phases of drilling.

Monitoring requirements have been described in the following Table 6.1. Frequency of monitoring the monitoring

have also been presented in the same table.

7. ADDITIONAL STUDIES Based on the TOR specified by the Ministry of Environment & Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC) issued vide

letter no. F. No. IA-J-11011/80/2019-IA-II(I), dated 13th April 2019 for preparation of EIA/EMP Report for proposed

Greenfield project, several studies were conducted and planned would be conducted to provide a clear picture of

the project area. The studies and activities suggested in EIA Notification includes: -

• Public Hearing and Consultation

• Risk Assessment Study including Disaster Management Plan

• Disaster Management plan

7.1 Public Hearing and Consultation

Public Hearing This draft EIA report is prepared and submitted to RSPCB for public hearing. After completion of the Public Hearing,

the applicant shall address all the environmental concerns expressed during this process and make appropriate

changes in the draft EIA and EMP Report. The final EIA report, so prepared, shall be submitted by the applicant to

MoEF&CC for appraisal.

7.2 Risk Assessment The objective of the RA study is to identify major risk contributing events, demarcate vulnerable zones and

evaluate the nature of risk posed to nearby areas due to proposed drilling activity, in addition to ensure

compliance to statutory rules and regulations. The scope of work for the study is described below:

• Identify potential risk scenarios that may arise from the proposed drilling and other associated activities

• Analyze the possible likelihood and frequency of such risk scenarios by reviewing historical accident related

data.

• Predict the consequences of such potential risk scenarios and if consequences are high, establish the same

by through application of quantitative simulations.

• Recommend feasible preventive and risk mitigation measures as well as provide inputs for drawing up of

Emergency Response Plan (ERP) for the project.

• The assessments would be based on various existing documents including Emergency Response Plan

(ERP), Disaster Management Plan (DMP).

7.2.1 Quantitative Risk Assessment

Risk” is defined as the combination of the expected frequency and consequence of accidents that could occur as

a result of an activity. Risk assessment is a formal process of increasing one understands of the risk associated

with an activity. The process of risk assessment includes answering three questions:

• What can go wrong?

• How likely is it?

• What are the impacts?

Qualitative answers to one or more of these questions are often sufficient for making good decisions about the

allocation of resources for safety improvements. But, as managers seek quantitative cost/benefit information upon

which to base their decisions, they increasingly turn their attention to the use of QRA.

Figure 63. Risk Assessment

QRA is the art and science of developing and understanding numerical estimates of the risk (i.e., combinations of

the expected frequency and consequences of potential accidents) associated with a facility or operation. It uses a

set of highly sophisticated, but approximate tools for acquiring risk understanding. The Overall approach for the

Risk Assessment in brief has been given here with details in the further chapters.

The various steps in the QRA process are described below.

• Hazard Identification

• Consequence Analysis

• Initial Failure Frequency assessment

• Construction of Event Trees

• Calculation of Average Individual Risk

Risk Assessment and preparation of Risk reduction recommendations

7.2.2 Hazard Identification

This most important section looks into all incidents, which could result in possible fatalities. For drilling, such

incidents typically include the following:

• Well fluid releases - small, medium and large well fluid releases from exploratory/appraisal drilling wells.

Possibilities include blowouts (due to either downhole or surface abnormality or possible cratering (a basin

like opening in the Earth surface surrounding a well caused by erupted action of gas, oil or water flowing

uncontrolled)) or other incidents involving drilling fluids, leakage from mud degassing stacks/ vents and

others- these are the major category and are deliberated later.

• Possibility of dropped objects on the drilling platform due to lifting of heavy equipment including components

like draw works, drilling pipe, tubing, drill bits, Kelly, mud equipment, shale shakers, BOP components, power

generating equipment and others.

• Single fatality occupational incidents such as trips and falls. These are more likely in drilling rigs due to the

hazardous nature of operations and general high congestion and large extent of the manual operation

involved.

• Structural failure of the drilling rig due to excessive static or rotating loads, earthquake, design defect,

construction defect etc. It may be noted that rotating loads are induced due to the specific rotating actions of

the rotary drilling mechanism (Drill string rotated by means of rotary table etc.).

• Loss of containment of fuels (HSD) and consequent pool fire on encountering an ignition source

The HAZID would select the Scenarios for further modeling in the next sections. The HAZID is derived mainly from

incidents in Similar drilling installations based on worldwide experience and includes generic data sources.

7.2.3 Hydrocarbon Release

The events of blowouts during drilling are divided in the databases according to the consequences and well control

success. Such blow outs can be ignited or un-ignited. Blow outs are uncontrolled sudden expulsions of oil, gas,

water or drilling fluids from wells to the surface which result in loss of control of the well.

Sources of hydrocarbon release during the drilling phase include the following:

• Dissolved gas which comes out of solution under reduced pressure often while drilling at near balance or

under balance hydrostatically or as trip gas during a round trip to pull the drill string around from the hole.

Such sources could include releases at bell nipple and around mud return flow line outlet, shale shakers and

active mud pits.

• As a “kick”, which occurs as the down hole formation pressure unexpectedly exceeds the hydrostatic head of

the circulating mud column. Significant releases can occur from the vent lines of the mud /gas separator and

other locations.

• From residual mud on the surface of the drill pipe being racked in the derrick during the round trip, or on

production of coil tubing being withdrawn from the hole, or from core samples laid out for inspection. Usually

any liquid hydrocarbon system entering the down hole under normal circumstances are very much diluted by

the mud system. However, under conditions of under balanced drilling, the proportion of hydrocarbons in mud

returns may be significant with a potential for continuous release.

• Small hydrocarbon release from rotating equipment, pipes and pump work occurring during normal

operations/ maintenance during drilling. These are not likely would be significant in open derrick or mast

structures.

• Possible shallow gas blowout – these may occur at sumps or drainage tanks and be conveyed by vents or

drains to areas of potential ignition sources resulting in fire/ explosion.

• Vapour present in oily drainage systems, vents, and ducting.

• Flammable materials used in drilling operations (oil based drilling fluids)- release points could include high

pressure mud points, mud degassing equipment, shale shaker, mud pits and active tanks etc.

Protection against Blowouts

The primary protections against blow outs during drilling are the BOPs or Blow out Preventers. These are used to

shut in and control the well in the event of gas or oil being encountered at pressures higher than those exerted by

the column of mud in the hole.

BOPs typically consist of 2-3 ram preventers designed at high pressures- (ram preventer is basically a double

operated valve with one ram or gate on each side of the bore hole). The BOPs are hydraulically operated with a

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

149

second remote control panel situated someway away from the rig for use in emergencies when the rig is

unapproachable. Connected to the side of the ram type preventers (usually below the blind rams) are the kill and

choke lines which are used to control the well in the event of any imbalance between the drilling fluid column

pressure and the formation pressure. Both lines are high pressure 2-3 inch hydraulic pipes, the kill line being

connected to the mud circulation system and the high-pressure cement pumps and the choke line leading to a back

pressure control Manifold and the mud degasser unit.

In the event of the high pressure kick with the drill string in the hole, the BOP is closed around the drill pipe and the

mud is circulated down the drill string and back to the mud tanks through the choke line and back pressure manifold.

The manifold consists of a series of valves and chokes - the choke can be adjusted to give the orifice opening

required such as to give a back pressure on the well in order to control it. There would be two chokes in order to

allow maintenance on one.

If a kick or blow out occurs with the drill string out of the hole, the blind rams are closed and heavy mud is pumped

into the well through the kill line. Any gas can be bled off through the choke line and fluids are usually squeezed

back into the formation.

The correct installation of the drilling equipment and the operational reliability of the BOPs are essential for the

safety of well drilling operation. In addition, initial and periodic testing of the BOPs, choke and kill manifolds, high

pressure/ heavy mud system etc. before installation and periodically is absolutely essential. Most important is the

presence of highly trained skilled personnel on the rig! In addition, the use of the correct drilling fluid in the

circulatory system is extremely vital.

• The drilling fluid basically does the following:

• To cool and lubricate the drilling bit and the drill string

• To remove drill solids and allowing the release at their surface.

• To form a gel to suspend the drill cuttings and any fluid material when the column is static

• To control sub surface pressures

• To prevent squeezing and caving if formations

• To plaster the sides of the borehole

• To minimize the damage to any potential production zone.

Pressures associated with the sub surface oil, gas or water can be controlled by increasing the specific gravity of

the fluid and thereby by reducing the hydrostatic head of the drilling fluid column. The squeezing of formations in

the drilled hole can be checked by increasing the hydrostatic head of the drilling fluid. Special additives for the

drilling fluid for controlling viscosity, lubricating properties, gelling properties etc. play an important role in the drilling

fluid integrity. Sealing agents such as cellulose, mica can also be added to make up the drilling fluid loss into the

porous and fractured formations.

The historical records show that the drilling of an exploration well has a higher chance of blow out occurring than

does drilling a development well. A blow out can be expected for about 400 exploration wells drilled. As a well takes

about 20-25 days to drill this equates to one blow out approximately every 50 years if drilling was continuous.

Historically, ignited blowouts have caused an average of three deaths per blow out.

7.2.4 Release of the other flammable material

HSD is used in the mobile generators at the drill sites to cater to the power requirement of the drill equipment, area

lighting, etc. The material would be stored in 180 MT vertical cylindrical tank. Spill containment system in the form

of 1.2m high bund wall is envisaged to contain 110% of the tank volume. Storage of fuels would primarily pose fire

hazard. The credible accident scenarios include:

• Catastrophic tank rupture (Large Leak)

• Leak from a 4” pipeline (Medium Leak)

• A 2” leak from the tank/pipe/flange (Small Leak)

The catastrophic Rupture (CR) of the tank would involve a large leak/big hole in the tank or disengagement of a

joint/large leak from a flange sufficient enough to discharge tank inventory in a short time. The spilled material shall

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

150

get contained within the dyke area. In presence of an ignition source, it may catch fire and result in Pool fire of the

dyke area.

A 4” leak from a pipeline or a flange shall have similar consequences as to CR, only the time for loss of containment

may be more. Fire being a surface phenomenon, the pool fire in the dyke area would pose similar heat radiation to

the surrounding area.

A 2” leak from the tank or the pipeline would result in the loss of inventory at a much reduced rate. Counter-

measures shall be available to arrest the leak within reasonable time. With a limited loss of inventory, the damage

distances in such case would be less in comparison to the above two cases.

The tank design and construction takes into account the possible stress loads imposed due to exploration and

appraisal activities at the drill site. Dyke with adequate capacity (110%) is being provided to contain the spill, if any.

Standard well area inspection and maintenance procedures of Vedanta Limited (Division: Cairn Oil and Gas) would

be implemented at the exploratory and appraisal wells to identify any abnormalities.

7.2.5 CONSEQUENCE ANALYSIS/CALCULATIONS

Consequence analysis involves the calculation of the initial “release rate” and then predicting the consequence of

the release through computer modeling- it forms an important ingredient in the QRA approach. Consequence

analysis is a complex procedure involving numerous calculations. It must also be noted that a single starting

incident could have numerous outcomes depending upon factors such as escalation, ignition and others.

The various factors of importance in this drilling rig study with respect to consequence analysis are described

below.

Loss of Containment- leak sizes

It must be understood that there are an infinite range of possible releases of flammable material on the facilities

For example, a hole could appear at any point in a well, at any time of the year and the hole could have any size

(right from pinhole to catastrophic line guillotine rupture) and also possibly any shape! In order to allow management

of the study, it is per force necessary to divide the infinite range into a number of smaller ranges through

representation as a single event or a failure case.

In the study, only small, medium and large well fluid blowouts were considered.

Hydrocarbon Leaks due to Loss of Containment (Leak during Well Testing) were not taken into consideration since

they are likely would be controlled about 95% of the time. The category includes releases that may be isolated from

the reservoir fluids, typically release from the well testing equipment and mud line.

Inventory

Inventory can get discharged to Environment due to Loss of Containment. Inventory Analysis is commonly used in

understanding the relative hazards and short listing of release scenarios and plays an important role in regard to

the potential hazard. The larger the inventory of a vessel or a “system”, the larger the quantity of potential release.

The potential release depends upon the quantity of release, the properties of the materials and the operating

conditions (pressure, temperature etc. described later).

Blowouts

A blowout on the topsides may take one of several forms and release locations. Any release not immediately ignited

would give a flammable vapour cloud, which could cause a vapour cloud explosion in the drill floor or the mud pit

areas.

A pressurized jet release could lead to a very large jet fire, producing high levels of thermal radiation. The flame

could impinge on structural members in the derrick. These could then fail as they lose their mechanical properties

at high temperature. This may lead to objects falling from the derrick and causing more damage below, especially

if the derrick has already been weakened by the blast from a vapour cloud explosion. If the fire continues for a long

period (say one to two hours) then the derrick may collapse causing serious damage to surrounding areas.

However, evacuation is expected to have occurred by any available means before this time.

This scenario is a worst-case scenario, which is unlikely to happen in this situation as the bottom hole pressure is

low.

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

151

Unburnt oil from a potential blowout would typically form running or evaporating pools, which could create a hazard

from heat and smoke in all areas that the pools reach. If the blow out originates on the drill floor then the burning

oil would run over the side of the drill floor.

Consequence Analysis for Blowouts

Blowout release rate is taken as 0.12 kg/s assuming 5 times the normal rate from the well. It is expected that the

uncontrolled release of fluids on the drill floor would ignite almost immediately and that the resulting fire would

engulf the drill floor. Higher ignition probabilities are expected for large releases compared to smaller releases. The

flames are likely to impinge on structural members on the drill floor. These may fail as they lose their mechanical

properties at high temperature. This may lead to objects falling from the derrick and causing more damage below.

If the fire continues for a long period.

Weather Conditions

The weather stability class is normally Class D on sunny days and Class F for Night time. The average wind speed

most of the time is 5 m/s for day time and 1.5 m/s. combining this with stability class D and F, consequence modeling

is done for both the weather cases 5 D and 1.5 F. The ambient condition considered in this study is as under:

Average Ambient Temperature = 24˚C

Average Humidity = 80 %

The six representative weather classes on which the analysis is based are detailed in Table 7-3 below: -

In its original form, the Pasquill system contains seven categories (A to F) but joint categories are also common.

Categories A (Very Unstable), D (Neutral) and F (Very Stable) are discussed next.

Category A (very unstable) occurs typically on a warm sunny day with light winds and almost cloudless skies when

there is a strong solar heating of the ground and the air immediately above the surface. Bubbles of warm air rise

from the ground in thermals. The rate of change (decline) of temperature with height (lapse rate) is very high.

Category D (neutral) occurs in cloudy conditions or whenever there is a strong surface wind to cause vigorous

mechanical mixing of the lower atmosphere.

Category F (very stable) occurs typically on a clear, calm night when there is a strong cooling of the ground and

the lowest layers of the atmosphere by long wave radiation. There is a strong inversion of temperature (i.e. warm

air over cold air).

Damage Criteria

Jet Fire

The consequence caused by exposure to heat radiation is a function of:

• The radiation energy onto the human body [kW/m2];

• The exposure duration [sec];

• The protection of the skin tissue (clothed or naked body).

It can be assumed that people would be able to find a cover or a shield against thermal radiation in 20 seconds

time. Furthermore, 100% lethality may be assumed for all people suffering from direct contact with flames, such

as the pool fire, a flash fire or a jet flame. The effects due to relatively lesser incident radiation intensity are given

below.

In the study, the following criteria were used for estimation of heat radiation due to fire fatalities:

Heat Radiation Selection Criteria:

• 4.73 kW/m2: Maximum radiant heat intensity in areas where emergency actions lasting 2 min to 3 min can

be required by personnel without shielding but with appropriate clothing. Corresponds to of painful burns

and blistering after 20 second exposure (0% lethality)

• 6.31 kW/m2: Indicative of second degree burns after 20 second exposure (1% fatality)

• 12.5 kW/m2: Indicative of piloted ignition for susceptible structures (50% fatality)

• 37.5 kW/m2: Indicative of total asset loss (100% fatality

Flash Fire Selection Criteria:

The consequence distances would be identified for the following Lower Explosive Limit:

• 50 % Lower Explosive Limit

• 100 % Lower Explosive Limit

Toxic Gas Dispersion Criteria:

No Toxic gas dispersion scenarios envisaged for this project.

Explosion Criteria:

Blast peak overpressure from explosion for buildings would not exceed the following levels provided in Table-7-4.

Internationally recognized and globally accepted TNO Multi energy model was used for the explosion modeling

for this Project.

7.2.6 Failure Frequency Analysis

Selection of Failure Scenarios

Potential release rates for a material from containment depend significantly on the initial operating conditions.

Factors affecting the “release rate” include the initial pressure, temperature, hole size, hole roughness, hole

orientation, gas properties, atmospheric conditions and many other parameters.

Both, the complexity of study and the number of incident outcome cases are affected by the range of initiating

events and incidents covered. This not only reflects the inclusion of accidents and / or non-accident-initiated events,

but also the size of those events. The following four scenarios have been quantitatively evaluated in the study:

• Small and medium size holes - these typically represent failures such as gasket leaks, flange leaks etc. This

scenario has been considered as 2” leak for HSD

• Medium leaks – these typically represent disengagement of flanges, full bore failure of pipelines, large leaks

from flanged joints, etc. This scenario has been considered as a 4” leak of HSD.

• Large holes– these typically represent “catastrophic” or “guillotine” rupture scenarios, possibly on account of

factors such as soil inundation, earthquakes etc. This scenario has been considered as a Catastrophic Failure

of HSD Tank.

• Well Blow out case. This has been considered as Well Blow out scenario involving crude oil

The selection of initiating events and incidents would take into account the goals or objectives of the study. The

main reasons for including release sizes other than the catastrophic are to reduce the conservatism in an analysis

and would be better understand the relative contributions to risk of small versus large releases. Only leakage events

leading to possibility of serious injury are considered in the study.

7.2.7 Calculation of Individual & Societal Risk

Individual Risk or IR represents the geographical distribution of risk to any individual.

Societal Risk is representing the risk the project poses to society as a whole. The Societal Risk or Group risk (F-

N) curves indicate the cumulative frequency (F) of (N) number of fatalities. Society is typically not willing to accept

industrial installations that result in many fatalities, even with a low frequency rate!

The estimation of risks in the software is done through estimation of “risks” attributed to each failure case by

determining the impact in terms of fatalities. In this step, the hazard or effect zone information, ignition source,

population distribution, meteorological data and other relevant details are combined to determine risks.

In order to estimate risks (IR or SR), the number of fatalities for each incident outcome case is calculated and the

frequencies of outcomes with equal fatalities summed up.

7.2.8 Comparison to Risk Acceptance Criteria

This penultimate step compares the estimated risk with respect to the Company’s internal risk acceptability criteria

or specific legislative or regulatory (as applicable in the country of operation) risk acceptability criteria. In this step,

the risk “band” is determined- typically, the project risk band is determined to be negligible, acceptable, not

acceptable are the risk assessment stage determines whether the risks are “Broadly Acceptable”, “Intolerable” or

“Tolerable if ALARP”.

Vedanta Limited (Cairn Oil & Gas) Risk Acceptability Criteria

Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) risk acceptability criteria are derived from interpretation of the risk

acceptability criteria published by UK HSE-92 and is applied when assessing the tolerability of risk to persons for

Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) facilities, sites, combined operations or activities. It broadly indicates

as follows:

• Individual risk to any worker above 10-3 per annum shall be considered intolerable and fundamental risk

reduction improvements are required.

• Individual risk below 10-3 for but above 10-6 per annum for any worker shall be considered tolerable if it can

be demonstrated that the risks are As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP).

• Individual risk below 10-6 per annum for any worker shall be considered as broadly acceptable and no further

improvements are considered necessary provided documented control measures are in place and

maintained.

• Individual risk to any member of the general public as a result of Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas)

Businesses activities shall be considered as intolerable if greater than10-4 per annum, broadly acceptable if

less than 10-6 per annum and shall be reduced to As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP) between these

limits.

• For new facilities, Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) shall strive to achieve lower risks compared with

that typical for existing facilities, down at least to an individual risk to any worker of 10-4 per annum, by the

appropriate use of best practice including technology and management techniques.

• For existing facilities, higher risk levels may be tolerated provided that they are As Low As Reasonably

Practicable (ALARP) and meet the minimum standards given herein. As facilities under Vedanta Limited

(Division Cairn Oil & Gas) expansion may be considered as “new” facilities; it is proposed that individual risk

to any worker above 10-4 per annum shall be considered intolerable.

The risk acceptability criteria are indicated in the following pages.

7.2.9 ALARP Demonstration

Wherever risks are found to lie in the ALARP region, this suggests existing risk mitigating measures must be

sustained and Best Industry Practices used. Any specific new risk reduction options may be evaluated through

Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA).

7.2.10 Risk Reduction Recommendations

This step analyses the risks estimated, their tolerability with respect to the risk acceptability criteria.

In case risks are found to fall in the “Unacceptable” region, risk reduction recommendations aimed at bringing risks

to within the “Tolerable region if ALARP” are proposed. In such conditions, the Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) is also

carried out for specific risk reduction measures in order to “quantify” them or any other mitigative measures shall

be recommended.

In case risks have been found would be the ALARP or Broadly Acceptable region, recommendations may still be

suggested for generic risk reduction based on industry best practice. Such risk reduction recommendations are not

“quantified” or mandatory but are nevertheless proposed for safer operation of the facilities.

7.2.13 Hazard Identification (HAZID), Consequence Analysis

and Risk Results for the Project

Hazard Identification is a very important and critical first step in the QRA process. The HAZID identifies process

and non-process hazards affecting the project execution and operational stage. The main objective of the HAZID

is to identify potential major accident events- it is important to ensure scenarios identified in the HAZID are factored

into the QRA.

7.2.14 Shortlisting of Release Scenarios

The range of incidents possible in the facility is established through identification of “Isolatable sections”, from

which the different categories of leakages/ releases may occur. The Isolatable Sections comprise those where

Emergency Shutdown Valves are in place isolating the section, even in emergency. Assumption Meeting for the

purpose of identifying such sections and estimating inventories, release rates and other details relevant to the

quantitative analysis. Guideline was utilized for deriving failure scenarios, release rates, inventories etc. Isolatable

Sections are identified as follows:

• The initial step is the identification of sources and their physical location

• Calculation of the hold-up volumes within isolatable sections with respect to fluid within equipment and

associated piping.

The process isolation times, inventory release times etc. for the various leak sizes considered were taken at 5

minutes for small leaks (5 mm), 3 minutes for minor leaks (25 mm)- safe distance can be used for layout purpose

2 minutes for large leaks and 1 minute for catastrophic rupture.

Appendix 7.1 shown provides information on leak sizes, inventories and hazardous chemicals within the isolatable

sections.

7.2.15 Consequence Analysis Results

Events originating from within the facility may, depending upon the nature and quantity of hazardous chemical and

the location of accident have the potential of affecting personnel within the installation or at times the general

population in the surrounding area.

7.2.18 FN Curve

The FN Curve drawn for this project is presented below. The FN Curve represents combined risk (during 5/D and

1.5 F) covering all the identified scenarios.

Figure 66. FN Curve

From the above F-N Curve, it may be seen that the maximum line starts at 1E-02 and 1E-04 and it is observed that

the integrated risks lie within the 1E-02 and 1E-04, Hence the risk is in “ALARP” range. -this suggests that existing

risk mitigating measures must be sustained and other Best Industry Practices shall be used. Any specific new risk

reduction options may be evaluated through Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) or any other suitable means.

7.2.19 Location Specific Individual Risk (LSIR)

LSIR is the risk for a hypothetical individual who is positioned at that location for 24 hours a day 365 days per year.

Since in reality people do not remain continuously at one location, LSIR is a notional risk measure.

From the below figure (combined during 5/D and 1.5 F) it can be seen that the maximum risk level lies in the band

of 1E-003 /Avge year (within the fence) and 1E-004 /Avge year –this risk band extends towards the west for a

distance of approx. 20 meters from the plot boundary. It may be noted that this risk level is on the higher side for

public areas (normally acceptable risk level is 1E-006/Avge year). It is suggested that either heater treater unit,

Coalescing filter skid and Fuel gas unit may be shifted 20 meters towards east to prevent any outside risk or to

ensure there are no vegetating in this area.

7.2.20 Individual Specific Individual Risk (ISIR)

The Location Specific Individual Risk is the risk to a person who is assumed to be at the specific location 365 days

a year and 24 hours a day. A more representative risk measure is the “Individual Specific Individual Risk (ISIR).

This is the risk estimated accounting for the time fraction a person actually spent at a specific location. The

calculation for this is done based on the consideration of Personnel working. An average working period of 12 hours

per day are considered and the results are presented below in tabular form.

From the above values it is seen that the operation/maintenance ISIR value is in ALARP range for operation person

and broadly acceptable for Non-operation. The following measures are available to address the same.

▪ Safeguarding of human life is Vedanta Limited (Division: Cairn Oil & Gas) top most priority. To this effect,

Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) has issued and implemented a comprehensive HSE POLICY

backed up with appropriate safety management systems and procedures.

▪ Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) operating procedures lay a strong focus on hazard identification

and risk assessment covering each and every hazardous operation, procedure and equipment. Risks and

mitigating measures for each are clearly carried out and measures implemented and monitored. This

ensures risk minimisation to the worker group.

▪ The facility to be built based on applicable National / International codes and best practice. Individual

equipment is of highest quality, certified and of highest safety integrity. This ensures risk minimisation to

the worker group through operational and maintenance periods. In addition, equipment hazard

identification has would be carried out for each of the equipment time to time.

▪ Mock drills would be carried out periodically to ensure the highest state of emergency response in case

of any incident.

7.2.21 Risk Reduction Measures

The main conclusions drawn from the Consequence Analysis and Risk calculations are given below- critical

actions for safeguarding against the incidents are also mentioned below: -

• From the F-N Curve, it is observed that the integrated risks lie within the “ALARP” range. -this suggests

existing risk mitigating measures must be sustained and Best Industry Practices be used. Any specific new

risk reduction options may be evaluated through Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA).

• From the figure 43 to figure 47 it can be seen that the maximum risk level lies in the band of 1E-003 /Avge

year (within the fence) and 1E-004 /Avge year –this risk band extends towards the west for a distance of

approx. 20 meters from the plot boundary. It may be noted that this risk level is on the higher side for public

areas (normally acceptable risk level is 1E-006/Avge year). It is suggested that either heater treater unit,

Coalescing filter skid and Fuel gas unit may be shifted 20 meters towards east to prevent any outside risk or

to ensure there are no vegetating in this area.

• It is seen that the control room is falls under 1E-03 /Avge year it advised to shift the Control room to a safe

location.

• As Living area are likely would be affected due to large incidents on the Rig Floor, it is essential to ensure the

upkeep of the safety devices (Smoke Detection, Fast Rescue Craft (FRC), escape routes and it must be

ensured that Mock evacuation drills are carried out periodically.

• Escape routes for personnel on the Drill Floor towards the LQ must be properly protected and kept free of

any debris/obstructions etc. to ensure minimum loss of life.

• The correct installation of Safety Critical Equipment and their operational reliability are essential for the safety

of the facility. In addition, initial and periodic testing of the Safety Critical Equipment before installation and

periodically is absolutely essential and the same must be ensured.

• Storage tank enclosures must be drained periodically during the rainy season in particular.

• As hydrocarbon related risks exist at the facility, ignition source control must be ensured during routine and

non routine operations.

• Ensuring that the public in vicinity of the facility is made aware of the hazards and also the hazards of

unplanned and irregular third-party activities- this may be done through frequent safety awareness

programmes, warning signage, explicit display of Do’s and Don’ts etc.

• Emergency Response Drills must be carried out frequently both internally within Vedanta Limited (Division

Cairn Oil & Gas) and also involving external authorities. Lessons learnt must be assimilated and disseminated

to concerned persons.

• The correct installation of the Safety Critical Equipment and their operational reliability are essential for the

safety of the facility. In addition, initial and periodic testing of the Safety Critical Equipment before installation

and periodically is essential and the same must be ensured.

• For Jetfire scenarios for small leaks may be safeguarded against through proper fire protection means (Fire

and gas Detectors, Passive and Active firefighting systems. Proper firefighting system design and

implementation and fire drills, training etc. are essential and must be sustained through the project life cycle.

• The damage distance arises due to the Flash Fire mitigated by ensuring the that the area must be kept free

of ignition sources to the extent possible and the same must be ensured even during maintenance activity.

Non-sparking tools must be used and personnel entering the area must be “de-earthed” before entering. A

hazardous area classification study is suggested for placement of electrical equipment in the classified area.

• The damage distance for pool fire arising due the pool fire for small leaks shall be safeguarded against through

proper fire protection means.

• Key non-routine activities must be preceded by a Job Safety Analysis and Job or Task Risk Assessment

involving key personnel that would be working on the facility.

• Work Permit System must be implemented during the construction and operational phases of the project to

safeguard against any accidents. It must subsequently also cover the operational phase.

• Trips and falls hazard, electrical hazards etc. must be minimized through periodic safety audits and site

inspections using third party and Internal audit teams. Actions arising out of the audits must be implemented

in a time bound manner and followed up for closure.

• Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) must ensure suitable training to all personnel (Company as well

as Contractor personnel) to help prevent incidents/ accidents- such training must be refreshed periodically,

and a list of trained personnel must be maintained by Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas)

• As ignition related risks exist at the facility, ignition source control must be ensured during routine and non-

routine operations.

• Apart from the process risks assessed, another very important category of incidents possible are those

associated with well operations. These risks could include uncontrolled blowouts, incidents associated with

rig movement/rig walk, wireline risks during wireline operations, well bore clean out risks, risks associated

with specific chemicals during drilling/well repair/ activation/other activities.

• On-site personnel are subject to standard occupational risks and Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas)

must direct effort and resources into reducing these risks. Incidents connected with well operations, dropped

objects, personnel falls from height, electrocution incidents etc. are top priorities which Vedanta Limited

(Division Cairn Oil & Gas) would concentrate significant effort to prevent, prepare for and respond to. This

must be implemented through the Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil & Gas) HSE Management System.

• HAZOP to be done once design is reasonably complete and before start up. In addition, a basic safeguarding

must be in place during the testing/early production phase- well shut/ surface facilities basic shut down must

be possible. A basic functioning F&G system too must be put in place with well shut down incase of F&G

activation. Initial phase well behavior could be unpredictable and necessary safeguarding must be in place-

essentially, the EPS must be equipped with basic shutdown facilities, typically “fit for purpose”. It is also

necessary that initial well operations are manned continuously- this of course, would be the case, since data

logging/monitoring would also be taking place.

• Storage Tank vents would be routed at safe height and location to avoid toxic/sudden vapour egress with

toxic/flammable hazard.

• Heater Treater BMS to be checked thoroughly before being put on line and necessary leak and performance

tests to be ensured properly. Burner light up sequences would be properly established and necessary site

verification tests etc. carried out

• Specific procedures to address sanding operations/ sand flush out must be in place.

• It must be ensured that Storage Tanks and Road Tankers are NOT overfilled (not more than 80%)- set points/

SOP to capture the same

• Road Tanker Bottom filling option is preferred- in case of top loading, OISD 157

(https://oilweb.oilindia.in/OISD_Standard/oisd%20standard_old/Std-157.doc) guidelines would be followed

for critical points

• Ensure proper (metallic/ metal braided) hoses, gaskets etc. and Road tanker earthing is properly executed.

• F&G system periodic testing and maintenance would be ensured to prevent major escalation scenario.

• Periodic cleaning would be ensured for flame arrestors of storage tanks to prevent any Blockage/LOC

scenario.

7.3 Disaster Management Plan In view of the hazardous nature of products / process handled in the project, Disaster Management Plans (DMPs)

has been prepared. These plans are based on various probable scenarios like Well Blow Out, Fire, Explosion,

Natural Calamities, etc. The consequence arising out of such incidents are accurately predicted with the help of

latest technique available by various Risk Analysis Studies. To minimize the extent of damage consequent to any

disaster and restoration of normalcy is the main purpose of DMP. The onsite Emergency Plans would deal with

handling of the emergency within boundary of the plants mainly with the help of industry’s own resources. Also,

when the damage extends to the neighbouring areas, affecting local population beyond boundaries of plant, Off-

site Emergency plans would be put into action in which quick response and services of many agencies are involved

e.g. District Authorities, Fire Services, Civil Defence, Medical, Police, Voluntary Organizations etc.

following established procedures. Adequate records of the results of the inspection, testing and maintenance

shall be kept and shall be periodically reviewed to confirm that the written scheme is appropriate and is being

adequately implemented.

7.3.9 Monitoring, Evaluation and Review

Documented reviews would be carried out after all drills and actual emergency responses to determine the

effectiveness of the Emergency Preparedness and Response Plans, with a full debrief to identify what worked well

and what aspects require improvement.

Lessons learned following exercises or actual emergency situations/incidents shall be documented, and any gaps

in planning and implementation shall be addressed in revised versions of the Emergency Preparedness and

Response Plans. Lessons learned shall be shared across Vedanta’s operations where appropriate.

All Emergency Preparedness and Response Plans shall be reviewed and updated periodically, at least on an

annual basis, to ensure they remain appropriate and relevant. Reviews shall also meet the requirements of the

Vedanta Management Standard MS14 on Management Review and Continual Improvement.

7.3.10 Preventive and Mitigation Measures for Well Blow out

Blow-out (uncontrolled gushing of oil & gas) is the worst situation, which may arise at oil wells during drilling, work-

over operations, perforation, and reservoir studies at active wells, etc. or due to some unforeseen reasons.

A blow out, though rare, in a drilling operation is often accompanied by fire and explosion exposing workers to

serious danger to their lives, burns and poisoning. To understand the failure modes resulting to formation of kick

and subsequent blow outs, one has to understand the safety systems installed for blow out prevention.

Prevention of blow outs rests primarily on control of any kick in the well bore. A kick means entry of formation fluids

into well bore in large enough quantity to require shutting in the well under pressure. Once a kick is detected, steps

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

can be taken to control entry of formation fluids into the well bore by over balancing the expected bottom hole

pressure with properly conditioned mud and operation of safety valves i.e. Blow Out Preventer (BOP), whereby the

space between the drill pipes and the casings can be closed and well itself shut off completely. Several instruments

are provided on a drilling rig for detection of kicks.

7.3.11 Instrumentation in Mud System

Continuous monitoring of condition of mud in the well provides information useful for well control. The following

processes are used in the drilling mud system for this purpose:

• A pit level indicator registering increase or decrease in drilling mud volume. It is connected with an audio-

visual alarm near the drillers control panel.

• A trip with float-marking device to accurately measure the volume of mud going in to the well. This is useful

to keep the well fed with required quantity of mud at all times.

• A gas detector or explosive meter installed at the primary shale shaker together with an audio-visual alarm at

the drillers control panel to indicate the well presence of gas-cut mud in the well.

• The kick in the well is prevented by keeping the hydrostatic head of the drilling fluid greater than the formation

pressure. The primary control can be lost in the following situations:

• If there is reduction in hydrostatic pressure in the well due to swabbing, which maybe caused if the drilling

string is pulled out too fast or by a balled-up or clogged bit, which is indicated by insufficient filling of mud.

7.3.12 Preventive Measures for Handling Natural Gas

The natural gas is a colourless, odourless, flammable gas, mainly methane which may cause flash fire. Electrostatic

charge may be generated by flow, agitation etc. No occupational exposure limits have been established for natural

gas. The preventive measures would be taken to avoid impact due to leakages are

• Provide local exhaust ventilation system: Ventilation equipment would be explosion-resistant if explosive

concentrations of material are present.

• Gloves: Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.

• Respirator: Under conditions of frequent use or heavy exposure, respiratory protection may be needed.

7.3.13 Leakage of H2S Gas

Hydrogen sulphide is a colourless, flammable, extremely hazardous gas with “rotten egg” smell. Low

concentrations of H2S irritate the eyes, nose, throat and respiratory system e.g. burning / tearing of eyes, cough,

and shortness of breath. Repeated or prolonged exposures may cause eye inflammation, headache, fatigue,

irritability, insomnia, digestive disturbances and weight loss.

The preventive measures would be taken up in case of leakages are:

• Stop the source of leakage (i.e. close the well)

• Remove victim, if any to fresh air, if breathing, maintain victim at rest & administer oxygen, if available, if

person is not breathing, start artificial respiration immediately or start mechanical/ automatic resuscitator. Call

ambulance and sent victim to hospital or doctor.

• Avoid & extinguish all naked flames

• Pull out all inflammable material i.e. HSD, Gas Cylinders, Chemicals etc. from the premises of well /

installation.

• Pull out all possible equipment to safe distances.

• Call for fire tender and start spraying water on the sources of leakage to dissolve H2S in water.

• Evacuate personnel in 500 mts area from down wind direction.

• Warn nearby inhabitants, if required.

• Cordon off the area & do not allow entry of any unauthorized person.

July,2019 AECOM

179

Vedanta Ltd. (Cairn Oil & Gas)’s operations in the Block have indicated that there is no naturally occurring H2S in

the reservoir and therefore release of H2S during drilling operations is not expected.

7.3.14 Preventing Fire and Explosion Hazards

Fire is one of the major hazards, related to oil and natural gas well. Fire prevention and code enforcement is the

area of responsibility of the fire service. Safe operating practices reduce the probability of an accidental fire on a

platform. Personnel would understand their duties and responsibilities and be attentive to conditions that might

lead to fire. The following precautions are recommended:

• Fire control cannot be achieved until the source of fuel and ignition is isolated. Fire control cannot be achieved

until the source of fuel and ignition is isolated. An emergency shut down (ESD) system shall be provided to

isolate the installation from the major hydrocarbon inventories within pipelines and reservoirs, which if

released on failure, would pose an intolerable risk to personnel, environment and the equipment / assets.

• There would be provision for safe handling and storage of dirty rags, trash and waste oil. Flammable liquids

and chemicals spilled on platform would be immediately cleaned.

• Containers of paints and HC samples, gas cylinders should be stored properly. Gas cylinders should be

transported in hand-carts

• Cutting and welding operations would be conducted in accordance with safe procedures

• Smoking would be restricted to designated platform areas and “no smoking” areas should be clearly identified

by warning signs

• Platform equipment would be maintained in good operating condition and kept free from external

accumulation of dust and hydrocarbons. Particular attention would be given to crude oil pump, seals, diesel

and gas engines which could be potential source of ignition in the event of a failure

• The Disaster Management Plan would address the issue of a fire event at any location on the well and the

procedure would be adopted in the very unlikely event of this occurring. If a fire starts in any well, that section

of the well would be isolated by closing the section (Block) valves, as quickly as possible and surrounding

facilities would be cooled with water.

7.3.15 Off-site Emergency Plan

The Off-Site Emergency Plan is a compilation of various emergency scenarios and also includes the probable

impact off-site locations due to emergency and the action plan to combat / mitigate the consequences of a disaster

situation. Emergency is a sudden unexpected event, which can cause serious damage to personnel life, property

and environment as a whole, which necessitate evolving off-site emergency plan to combat any such eventuality.

Emergencies can be handled by an organized multi-disciplinary approach. If it becomes necessary to evacuate

people, then this can be done in orderly way.

Under the Environmental (Protection) Act 1986, the responsibility of preparation of Off-Site Emergency Plan lies

with the State Government. The Collector/ Deputy Collector by virtue of their occupation are normally nominated

by the concerned State Government to plan Off-Site Emergency Plan. The different agencies involved in evacuation

of people are civil administration (both state and central) and police authorities.

Purpose

• To save life and prevent/reduce loss of properties

• To make explicit inter related set of actions would be undertaken in the event of an accident posing hazards

to the community

• To plan for rescue and recuperation of casualties and injuries. To plan for relief and rehabilitation

• To plan for prevention of harms, total loss and recurrence of disaster. It would be ensured that absolute safety

and security is achieved within the shortest time

The activities of the government, Non-Government organizations and concerned personnel involved in off-site

disaster management plan are as follows:

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

180

These would include the safety procedures would be followed during emergencies such as posters, talks and mass

media in different languages including local language. Leaflets containing do’s/ don’ts would would be circulated

to educate the people in vicinity

Medical Help consisted of doctors and supporting staff for medical help to the injured persons because of disaster

would be formed. Functions and duties of the committee include, providing first Said treatment for injured at the

spot or at some convenient place and shift those to nearby hospitals for further treatment if required

The police would assist in controlling of the accident site, organizing evacuation and shifting of injured people to

nearby hospitals.

The fire brigade shall organize to put out fires other than gas fires and provide assistance as required. Approach

roads to accident site and means of escape would be properly identified. Chief fire officer would co-ordinate entire

fire control measures. Routine training of fire fighting equipment and special rescue equipment should be carried

out. Concerned officer would ensure adequate supply of fire water and fire fighting agents at the site of emergency.

Maintenance of standby equipment / personnel for fire fighting would be ready at any given time.

Mutual Aid

Disaster / emergency / risk, when becomes difficult to control by in house team / management, help from nearby

industries, institutions, etc. can be taken. A group of mutual aid can be formed where emergency control systems

like ambulance, fire fighting equipments, medical & fire-fighting team, etc. can be shared in the event of need.

Post Emergency Relief to the Victims

The Public Liability Insurance (PLI) Act, 1991 provides for the owner who has control over handling hazardous

substances to pay specified amount of money to the victims as interim relief by taking insurance policy for this

purpose. The District Collector has definite role in implementation of this act. After proper assessment of the

incident, he shall invite applications for relief, conduct an enquiry into the claims and arrange payment of the relief

amount to the victims.

7.3.16 General Health and Safety

The project would adhere to health & safety norms of The Factories Act, 1948 and Rajasthan Factory Rules,

1951, as applicable along with Best Industry Practices.

General health and safety issues during various project activities are similar to those of most large infrastructure

and industrial facilities and their prevention and control. These issues include among others, exposure to dust

and hazardous materials, hazardous materials components, and physical hazards associated with the use of

heavy equipment, etc.

Specific health and safety issues primarily include the following:

• Physical hazards

• Chemical hazards

• Confined spaces

Physical Hazards - The main sources of physical hazards are associated with machinery and vehicles. General

electrical equipment safety, working in confined spaces, hot work, high temperature areas are expected would be

present.

Chemical Hazards - workers may be exposed to chemical hazards especially if their work entails direct contact

with fuels or chemicals, flare & DG set emission or depending on the nature of activities. Work with fuels may

present a risk of exposure to volatile organic compounds (VOC) via inhalation or skin contact during normal use

or in the case of spills.

Noise - Noise sources include drilling, DG operations, including vehicular traffic, and boats. In order to evaluate

the impacts of proposed project on the health of workers, baseline health studies would be carried out on every

worker before joining their duties.

The hierarchy of control specific for health & safety (in order of priority):

• Eliminate the use of a harmful product or substance and use a safer one;

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

181

• Substituting wherever reasonably practicable, a non-hazardous material which presents no risk to health,

where a hazardous material is used intentionally, i.e. use a safer form of the product;

• Modifying a process to eliminate the use of risk, the production of a hazardous by-product or waste product,

including reducing the quantities of the hazardous material which are used & stored, i.e. change the process

to emit less of the substance;

• Enclose the process so that the product does not escape;

• Extract emissions of the substance near the source;

• Provide personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, coveralls and a respirator. PPE must fit the

wearer.

7.3.17 Personal Protective Equipment

Often it is not possible, or practicable, to eliminate exposure to materials hazardous to health completely. In such

cases, operations would consider how to prevent employees being exposed and the prevention of exposure

would be achieved by measures other than the use of PPE or Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE), which is

the last line of defence.

Situations where PPE/RPE would normally be necessary include:

• where adequate control of exposure cannot be achieved solely by good practice and the application of

operational or engineering measures;

• where new or revised assessment shows that PPE/RPE is necessary until adequate control is achieved by

other means;

• where there is temporary failure to achieve adequate control of the process, e.g. because of plant failure,

and the only practicable solution to maintain adequate control in the time available may be the provision and

use of suitable PPE/RPE; and

• where maintenance operations have would be carried out.

Key personal protective equipment would include:

• Body suit

• Hand gloves

• Helmet

• Safety shoes

• Safety harness

• Breathing apparatus

• Eye shield

• Ear muffs

7.3.18 First Aid

Medical services, including personnel trained in first aid, and medical equipment that is appropriate to the type of

operation would be provided at project.

All persons on an installation would have at least basic training in emergency response, basic first aid, use of life

saving appliances and firefighting. Individual competencies shall be periodically tested to identify further

requirement of training and knowledge to perform emergency duties.

It would be ensured that any auxiliary medical teams e.g. nurses and first aid personnel are fully trained and

conversant with their roles and responsibilities.

Contact details & capacities of nearby medical facilities and medical experts would be made available at strategic

locations.

7.3.19 Disaster Management Plan for Natural Hazard

Key natural hazards that occur in Rajasthan are earthquake, flash flood, hailstorms, sand storm, etc.

• Earthquake - As per the BMPTC Atlas, various parts of the State of Rajasthan fall under earthquake zones

III. General awareness and wide dissemination of do’s and don’ts through electronic and print media issued

by state disaster management agency would be followed.

• Flood - Though most parts of Rajasthan receive scanty rainfall, the State has a history of floods and

inundations, mostly along the basins of rivers like Luni. Besides the floods in natural drainage systems, there

are other reasons for inundation. Changes in rainfall patterns have also increased the risk of flash floods in

many areas that were not flood prone historically. IMD and other government department warnings should be

monitored and in case of any such warning, relevant steps as guided by on site disaster management plan

would be followed. Instruction given by key departments like IMD, district disaster management center, etc.

to be followed

• Hailstorms - cause heavy damage to crops and vegetations. Secondary hazards like snapping of electric

poles due to uprooting of trees, disruption of communication links, etc. are also attributed to hailstorms. Frost

is a regular feature in many parts of Rajasthan. Measure like avoiding traveling, clearing of area, etc. should

be taken along with on site disaster management plan.

• Sand storms are typical features of south-western Rajasthan. High velocity winds along with sand, often

cyclonic in nature, blow through most of the western districts, particularly in months from March to June. High

wind and sand storms severely disrupt the routine life, transportation, electricity and other essential services.

• Human Epidemics - Although, Rajasthan has a history of disease outbreaks such as Cholera, Gastroenteritis,

Acute Diarrhoea/ Dysentery, Infective Hepatitis, Encephalitis, Poliomyelitis, Typhoid and recently H1NI; the

State is particularly prone to Malaria. Conduct regular hygeine awareness and conduct targeted vaccination

drives as required. Workers would be trained for hygienic work environment, sanitation & living conditions.

It has been observed that natural hazards can be minimized by the presence of a well functioning communication

/ warning system. A well prepared administration needs to have its communication/early warning system in place

to enable precautionary & mitigation measures on receiving warning for impending disasters and in the process

minimise loss of life & property.

Data from different reliable sources would collected and monitored in real or near real time and analysed to

generate a warning alert in the event of likelihood of a disaster.

• The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) would be the nodal agency for the monitoring of seismic activity,

flood, etc.

• Tie up / contacts / communication with State Disaster Response Force (SDRF), district disaster management

center would be maintained SDRF has been constituted in the State with stations at locations i.e. Jodhpur,

Jaipur & Kota.

• Local Search and Rescue Team at the local level comprising of retired Army and Police personnel, Civil

Defence and Home Guard, volunteers can be identified and trained to perform initial Search and Rescue

operations.

• Apart from the above, Community volunteers/ representatives would be identified and trained on search and

rescue operations through community Based Disaster Management programme.

• Disaster Management and Relief Department website/ communication along with other line departments like

fire, polic, health, etc. would be checked

be similar to those outlined for construction phase

activities as discussed earlier.

9.5 Spill / Release Management Plan

Potential spill / release scenarios

The following section details the potential spill scenarios associated with the drilling activities as well as the oil spill

incident responses. Spill incidents from drilling activities can be classified into three types based on the level of

response required. A description of the three types are as follows:

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

189

Type 1

A small oil or chemical spill incident which can respond to and can be controlled with the existing resources,

equipment and resources at the site and without any further escalation. Most of the potential drill stage spill risks

are Type 1. As the spill / release incident as the volumes involved are limited due to the extent of hydrocarbons or

chemicals used or stored at site. Such possible incidents are likely to include:

• Diesel spills from refuelling i.e., drill rig ‐ hose leaks, overfilling or connection/disconnection incidents.

• The use of liquid chemicals i.e., during drilling the volumes are limited by the storage containers used,

drums etc.

• Hydraulic oil spill resulting from a split hydraulic hose or failed connector (moderate pressure, low volume

lines).

• Drilling fluid leaks from tanks, pumps or other associated equipment within the closed loop recirculation

system.

Type 2

Type 2 spill / release incidents are those that are beyond capability of the immediate resources on‐site to effectively

manage and contain, requiring additional external resources to assist with the response to the spill incident. Type

2 spill incidents may require initiate Emergency operations and would involve call out of the Fire Service (in the

event of danger to people) and/or regional resources. For such potential spill incidents, the resources of the local

administration or suppliers may be required. Such possible incidents are likely to include:

• Transportation incidents associated with the delivery of diesel or drilling fluids to site i.e., truck rollover or

collision from external suppliers (drilling fluids and diesel).

• Complete failure of an on‐site drilling fluid (base oil) storage tank(s).

Type 3

Type 3 spill / release incidents are significant spill incidents that escalate from a Type 1 or 2 and exceed the

capabilities of the on‐site and local administrative resources to respond, requiring a State /National response. An

uncontrollable well blow out scenario would fall into this category.

Spill / Release Response Strategies

Spill / release response strategies for combating spill / release incidents include:

• Prevent or reduce further spillage.

• Monitoring and evaluation (no active intervention but the spill is under observation).

• Mechanical containment and recovery.

• Any combination of the above strategies.

A brief explanation of these various response strategies is provided in the following sections.

Prevent or reduce a spill / release incident

One of the first response actions, if safe to do so, is the isolation or prevention of the source of the spill / release in

an attempt to limit any further discharge. Such first response actions can involve an emergency shutdown of the

particular equipment, isolation of a valve or line causing the spill or providing some immediate containment to

prevent the further spread of a spill / release. Such measures are only a first immediate response prior to a more

coordinate effort being planned and undertaken.

Monitoring and Evaluation

Knowing the position of spillage / release source and having the ability to forecast its movement or direction is an

essential component of spill response. Monitoring and evaluation is used to:

• Determine the location and movement of the spill / release (if any).

• Describe its appearance.

• Estimate the size and quantity of the spill / release

• Note changes in the appearance and distribution of the spill over time.

Vedanta Limited. (Division CAIRN Oil & Gas) DRAFT EIA: Onshore Oil and Gas E&A in RJ-ONHP- 2017/1 Block, Barmer District, Rajasthan

July,2019 AECOM

• Assess the potential threat to the environment and the resources required to combat the spill / release

(more effective and coordinate response)

Mechanical Containment and Recovery

Mechanical containment and recovery is the restriction of a spill / release movement through the use of booms or

some other form of physical barriers and its subsequent removal using skimmers and other mechanical means.

These operations may be required for large spills or spills / release which may impact environmentally sensitive

areas. This response option would be used if the spill / release:

• Threatens environmental sensitive areas, or

• The spill is unlikely would be removed by natural processes.

The feasibility of a containment and recovery response is dependent upon having surface pollution that is capable

of being contained and recovered and having suitable conditions for equipment deployment. The spill containment

plan shall be addressed in line with the recommendation of QRA analysis as prescribed in chapter 7.

Waste Management

Spill response operations have the potential to generate liquid and solid wastes, if there are clean‐up operations.

The types and quantities of waste material largely depend on the amount of liquid material spilt and the specific

clean‐up methods employed. Disposal options for oily wastewater may include high temperature incineration,

bioremediation or disposal at secured landfill sites. Any disposal option selected would need to comply with the the

Hazardous and Other Wastes (Management and Transboundary Movement) Rules, 2016.

9.6 Noise quality Management Plan The noise control plan is applicable for construction of well sites, early production system, drilling operations and

decommissioning/site closure of well sites.

The noise control plan to ensure specific measures to minimize noise levels in the project site as 75 dB(A) per

CPCB noise rules. The plan also outlines roles and responsibilities of both Vedanta Limited (Division Cairn Oil &

Gas) and the contractors involved in the implementation of the plan.
