Figure-1: Monthly Crude Oil Production
Unit-wise production details with reasons for shortfall are as under:
-
- Crude oil production by ONGC during January, 2018 was 1836.79 TMT which is 5.45% lower than the monthly target and 4.15% lower when compared with January, 2017. Cumulative crude oil production by ONGC during April-January, 2017-18 was 18685.49 TMT which is 3.05% lower than target for the period but 0.76% higher than production during corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall in production with respect to target are as under:
- Delay in implementation of “Conversion of Sagar Samrat to MOPU” Project.
- Non realisation of Production planned from project “Integrated Development of B 127 Cluster” from Oct’2017 onwards due to delay in implementation of project.
- Repairing of gas leakage in 8” Gas lift line from NLP to NLM-8 well platform and 4" branches to NLM-6 & NLM-7 well platforms from 2nd – 28th January, 2018.
- Production from NBP field in western offshore affected due to ESP related issues.
- Rig is deployed at NBP-B and NBP-C well platforms for remedial measures.
- Increase in water cut in wells of Heera, Neelam, B-173 fields and Kesnapalli west field of Rajahmundry.
- Frequent power shutdowns & low gas injection pressure in Mehsana & Assam hampered Artificial Lift operations.
- Wells closed for cluster drilling/ rig movements in Assam.
-
- Crude oil production by OIL during January, 2018 was 285.40 TMT which is 9.98% lower than monthly target but 4.14% higher than production in January, 2017. Cumulative crude oil production by OIL during April-January, 2017-18 was 2833.82 TMT which is 9.46% lower than target for the period but 4.78% higher than production during the corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:
- Less than planned contribution from old wells – Rise in water cut in wells and decline in total liquid production of wells of Greater Hapjan and Greater Chandmari Fields.
- Less than planned contribution from work over wells
-
- Crude oil production by Pvt/JVs during January, 2018 was 854.21 TMT which is 5.39% lower than the monthly target and 3.49% lower than January, 2017. Cumulative crude oil production by Pvt/JVs during April-January, 2017-18 was 8391.50 TMT which is 5.84% lower than target for the period and 5.40% lower than the production during the corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:
- RJ-ON-90/1: 1) Mangala production lowered due to voltage dip on 26 Jan 2018 and power fluid pump maintenance on 31 Jan 2018. 2) No production from Guda for Jan 2018 due to non-availability of tankers. 3) Around 85 oil wells are closed due to various reasons like high water cut, require WOJ, etc. 4) Underperformance vis-à-vis MC approved profile in Bhagyam field. (CEIL)
- Full-fledged production from field is yet to be realized owing to delay in drilling of development wells as per plan in CY-ONN-2002/2. (ONGC)
- Production lower due to compressor unscheduled maintenance and closure of re-perforation wells and PC-14H underperformance in Panna-Mukta. (SHELL)
Natural Gas
- Natural gas production during January, 2018 was 2695.08 MMSCM which is 11.55% lower than the target for the month and 1.59% lower when compared with January, 2017. Cumulative natural gas production during April-January, 2017-18 was 27382.63 MMSCM which is 6.13% lower than target for the period but 2.85% 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 January, 2018 and cumulatively for the period April-January, 2017-18 vis-à-vis same period of last year has been shown in Table-2 and month-wise in Figure-2.
