Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:

 

• Less than anticipated production from WO-16 cluster due to delay in mobilization of MOPU Sagar Samrat.
• Less than anticipated production from Cluster-8 fields due to delay in inputs as installation of wellhead platforms got delayed due to Covid impact.
• Loss in oil production in Ratna & R-Series due to scaling in wells and delay in H2S package at R-13A wells.
• Less condensate receipt at Hazira due to less gas production from B&S Asset.
