Also, I loved how the stadium was done up for the #WorldChampionships in Delhi— the #India Gate themed players entrance, the lighting, the courts and, most of all, the energy in the stadium was just amazing. 🏸🇮🇳

Here’s a little video I took before starting my commentary session. I was genuinely in awe of the quality of matches across all courts. So many incredible matches happening at the same time, it was hard to choose which one to focus on. Must say, that’s a pretty awesome problem

[Ashwini Ponnappa @P9Ashwini]

I return with years of experience and a very different perspective.

Same tournament. Different accreditation.
A whole new view of it.

What a week to come home to. 🏸🇮🇳

2009, the @bwfmedia World Championships were hosted in #India for the 1st time. I was behind the scenes as a youngster, watching the best in the world turn up in Hyderabad.

2026, the #WorldChampionships are back in India.

From data beneath the seabed to energy for the nation.

#SamudraManthan brings together the entire offshore exploration journey: high-precision surveys to map the subsurface, advanced interpretation to identify promising prospects, deepwater drilling to test their potential, and shared infrastructure to enable faster development and production.

Beyond individual discoveries, the mission is building a future-ready offshore ecosystem powered by technology, skilled professionals, indigenous manufacturing, specialised services and global collaboration.

For #ONGC, every signal studied, every prospect evaluated and every well drilled carries one national purpose: transforming the possibilities beneath India’s seas into greater domestic production, energy security and self-reliance.

Survey. Interpret. Drill. Develop. Secure India’s energy future.

By unlocking new offshore discoveries and strengthening domestic production, #SamudraManthan can attract investment, generate economic value and reduce India’s dependence on imported energy.

For #ONGC, it is a defining national mission to explore deeper, discover more and transform the possibilities beneath India’s seas into enduring energy security.

Beneath the waves lies possibility. India now has the resolve to unlock it.

#ONGC’s Utkal and Konark discoveries have strengthened the promise of the Mahanadi Offshore Basin.

Building on these successes, exploratory well MN-DW18-1-H-D is being drilled approximately 23 nautical miles from Konark, off the Odisha coast, carrying the momentum of #SamudraManthan into one of India’s most promising offshore frontiers.

Every well takes India closer to its next energy breakthrough.

What is #SamudraManthan?

It is India’s landmark National Offshore Exploration Scheme, an ambitious mission to systematically explore, discover and develop the oil and gas resources hidden beneath the nation’s seas.

The initiative represents India’s largest coordinated push to transform its offshore potential into greater energy security, economic growth and self-reliance.

Behind every deepwater mission is a force of people, data and technology.

At the heart of #SamudraManthan is #DeepX, #ONGC’s handpicked mission-mode team of over 30 experts, working with state-of-the-art technologies, global specialists and the principle of “One Company, One Data.”

With plans to drill 150 deepwater wells over seven years and pursue nearly 5,600 MMTOE of deepwater and ultra-deepwater hydrocarbon potential, the campaign is designed to convert complex subsurface intelligence into discoveries, faster development and national energy value.

From promising signs in the Cauvery and Mahanadi basins to established thermogenic gas presence in the Andaman region, ONGC is advancing across India’s offshore frontiers with experience, precision and purpose.

One ocean. One effort. One purpose.
India’s energy security.
