An uncontrolled crude oil and natural gas leak at the Nagajan oilfield in Duliajan, Assam, has raised concerns among residents following a powerful burst at Well No. 309. This incident, mirroring a similar leakage in March 2025, underscores vulnerabilities in oilfield management. Emergency teams, including Oil India Limited (OIL) and fire crews, are working to contain the situation. The recurrence of such leaks highlights the urgent need for stringent maintenance measures to prevent potential disasters akin to the Baghjan Oil Field Tragedy of 2020.
