Background

On 24 February 2016, the Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change approved a debottlenecking project on the pipeline. The 798-km pipeline project included laying new pipeline from Moda, Gujarat to Manjpuria, Dausa, as well as expanding the pipeline in Rewari distric of Haryana.

Spills and Environmental Issues

The pipeline expansion project includes segments within 10 km of two wildlife sanctuaries, Jessore Sloth Bear Sanctuary (2.7 km) and Balaram-Ambaji Wildlife Sanctuary in Banaskantha district, Gujarat (0.09 km).

In June 2017, the pipeline ruptured, spilling oil across four hectares of agricultural land in Mota Thavariya villange near Jamnagar city. The amount spilled was not reported.
