Figure-1: Monthly Crude Oil Production
Unit-wise
production details with reasons for shortfall are as under:
1.1
Crude
oil production by ONGC during August, 2017 was 1898.47 TMT which is 2.98% lower
than the monthly target but 1.78% higher when compared with August, 2016.
Cumulative crude oil production by ONGC during April-August, 2017 was 9457.74
TMT which is 1.16% lower than target for the period but 2.52% higher than production
during corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall in production
are as under:
Ø Offshore: Natural
decline and increase in water cut from matured fields of Western Offshore. Due
to severe monsoon and harsh weather conditions, wells at unmanned platforms
could not be attended / monitored which affected regular operations like Gas
Lift De-optimization, ESP failure & minimum well monitoring / stimulation
etc.
Ø Onshore:
Power
shut down in Mehsana (heavy rain) and Assam Assets.
1.2
Crude
oil production by OIL during August, 2017 was 288.48 TMT which is 8.99% lower
than monthly target but 6.03% higher than production in August, 2016. Cumulative
crude oil production by OIL during April-August, 2017 was 1416.81 TMT which is 9.46%
lower than target for the period but 5.50% higher than production during corresponding
period of last year. Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:
Ø Less than
planned achievement due to higher decline in production potential of wells
mainly in Greater Hapjan and Greater Chandmari areas.
Ø Less than
planned contribution from work over wells.
1.3
Crude
oil production by Pvt/JVs during August, 2017 was 832.98 TMT which is 7.76% lower
than the monthly target and 10.47% lower than August, 2016. Cumulative crude
oil production by Pvt/JVs during April-August, 2017 was 4230.06 TMT which is 5.06%
lower than target for the period and 7.60% lower than the production during
corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall in production are as
under:
Ø RJ-ON-90/1
(CIL): Around 120 wells are closed either due to high water cut or require WOJ.
Poor reservoir performance of Bhagyam. Production stopped from Guda,
Kaameshwari West, Raageshwari and Saraswati due to non-availability of tanker
since July’17.
Ø Panna-Mukta
(Shell): Certain wells closed due to integrity issues in Aug’17. Also, natural
decline in Panna-Mukta.
Ø CY-ONN-2002/2
(ONGC): Test production from 5 oil wells. PML not yet granted.
Ø CB-ONN-2004/2
(ONGC): Underperformance of wells.
Natural Gas

Natural gas production during August, 2017 was 2772.94
MMSCM which is 5.38% lower than the target for the month but 3.69% higher when
compared with August, 2016. Cumulative natural gas production during April-August,
2017 was 13689.67 MMSCM which is 5.39% lower than target for the period but 4.31%
higher than the production during corresponding period of last year. Unit-wise
and state-wise natural gas production is given at Annexure-II. Unit-wise
natural gas production for the month of August, 2017 and cumulatively for the
period April-August, 2017 vis-à-vis same period of last year has been shown in Table-2

Figure 3: Monthly Refinery
Production
3.1
CPSE
Refineries’ production during August, 2017 was 11197.45 TMT which is 6.12% higher
than the target for the month and 1.93% higher than the production achieved in
the corresponding month of last year. Cumulative production by
CPSE refineries during April-August, 2017 was 58851.85 TMT which is 6.86% higher
than the target for the period and 3.98% higher than the production during
corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall of refinery production
in some CPSE refineries are as under:
Ø IOCL,
Panipat: Throughput lower due to deferment of M&I shutdown from Jul’17 to
Jul-Aug’17.
Ø IOCL,
Bongaigaon: High product stock due to restriction in rake movement on account
of floods in Assam/Bihar/Bengal.
Ø BPCL,
Mumbai: Lower due to planned outage of CDU3/Hydrogen / Hydrocracker units’
turnaround for revamp.
Ø MRPL,
Mangalore: Advancement of planned shutdown by 3 days for turnaround of DCU and
CDU-1.
3.2 Production
in JV refineries during August, 2017 was 1507.39 TMT which is 12.07% higher
than the target for the month but 0.94% lower than the production achieved in
the corresponding month of last year. Cumulative production by
JVs refineries during April-August, 2017 was 4864.70 TMT which is 9.51% lower
than the target for the period and 33.89% lower than the production during corresponding
period of last year.
3.3 Production
in private refineries during August, 2017 was 7746.64 TMT which is 0.61% higher
than the target for the month but 0.47% lower when compared with August, 2016. Cumulative
production by private refineries during April-August, 2017 was 38165.26 TMT
which is 1.79% higher than the target for the period and 0.89% higher than the
production during corresponding period of last year.
3.4 Refinery-wise
details of the capacity utilization and production of petroleum products during
the month of August, 2017 and cumulatively for the period April-August, 2017
