Reasons for shortfall in Q3 2012-13:

Crude oil :

In Eastern Offshore Asset production has been restricted due to high GOR & for better reservoir management. In Ahmadabad Asset and Cambay production affected due to increase in water cut power shutdowns. At the same time Akholjoni field in Cambay is showing decline in production.

Natural gas production :

Natural gas production was affected in Mumbai High and Cauvery assets due to less off-take by the consumers. While lack of consumers affected gas production in Tripura.
