We look forward to participating at India Energy Week 2023 to showcase some of these advanced technologies, and our continued vision and commitment to making India self-reliant in energy.”

The platform will enable Cairn to access, analyze, and act on data from multiple sources in real-time, including drilling and production data, geophysical data, and sensor data.

A key highlight of the stall will be the company's focus on achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050 that is being well represented bya centre piece – a suspended Mother Earth – which will showcase the company's commitment of integrating core business with ESG vision. The Cairn Experience Zone also includes a digital pledge wall – Caring for Planet Earth – where attendees can be part of the ESG journey by pledging their support to Cairn in its mission to plant 2 million trees by 2030.
