Figures-1: Monthly Crude Oil Production
1.2 ONGC’s crude oil production during August, 2015 was 1929.231 TMT which is 0.26% lower than the target for the month and 3.74% higher than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year. ONGC’s cumulative production during April-August, 2015 was 9384.609 TMT which is 0.48% lower than the cumulative target and 1.42% higher than the production during the corresponding period of last year. The shortfall in ONGC’s production was due to following reason:
? Ahmedabad & Mehsana, Gujarat: After effects of cyclonic storm in July’15; unplanned power shutdown; closure of Kalol-Ramol GAIL line leakage; increase in number of flowing wells fallen sick in Santhal field; increase in water cut in Lanwa field.
?Assam: Power shut down, low gas injection pressure.
1.3 OIL’s crude oil production during August 2015 was 276.024 TMT which is 8.75% lower than the target for the month and 7.47% lower than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year. OIL’s cumulative production during April-August, 2015 was 1388.147 TMT which is 5.56% lower than the cumulative target and 2.84% lower than the production during the corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall in production are given below:
?The net realization from old wells is 97 % of planned target. The gap is mainly due to bandhs, blockades and flood because of continuous rainfall.
?Retrieval of wellhead potential by workover effort has exhibited a diminishing trend because of ageing of the major oilfields.
?Potential build-up by drilling effort falls short of expectation because of limited structural traps which can be exploited, and plateauing of majority of the established oilfields.
1.4 Pvt. /JVs’ crude oil production during August, 2015 was 987.812 TMT which is 8.42% higher than the target for the month and 13.99% higher than production of corresponding month of last year. Pvt./JVs’ cumulative production during April-August, 2015 was 4865.560 TMT which is 8.90% higher than the cumulative target and 0.20% lower than the production during the corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall in production are given below:
? Repeated sand ingress in existing producers of Kharsang field in Arunachal Pradesh.
? PCP stopped due to stuck up of polished rod in Allora field. Well SD No. 1 is kept closed. ND No. 1A is under production in Dholasan Field.
? Lack of adequate EPS facility to handle increasing water in existing wells in CB-ONN-2000/1, Gujarat.
2. Natural Gas Production

Cumulative natural gas production during April-August, 2015 was 13698.912 MMSCM which is 5.37% lower than the target for the period and 2.73% lower 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, 2015 and cumulatively for the period April-August, 2015 vis-?-vis same period of last year has been shown in table-2.1 and month-wise in figure-2.1.

Figures-2.1: Monthly Natural Gas Production
2.2 ONGC’s natural gas production during August, 2015 was 1855.946 MMSCM which is 10.10% lower than the target for the month and 5.27% higher than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year. ONGC’s cumulative natural gas production during April-August, 2015 was 9022.625 MMSCM which is 7.02% lower than the cumulative target and 1.94% lower than the production during the corresponding period of last year. Reasons for the shortfall are given below:
? Bassein & Satelite: Shutdown taken for re-routing of 42” SBHT (South Bassein Heera Trunk line).
? EOA: Delay in commencement of production from one deep water well planned in Eastern offshore and restricted withdrawal by GAIL in view of pipeline safety issues.
? Ahmedabad: Closure of wells due to unplanned shut down of GAIL Gas line from Ahmedabad/Kalol to Ramol. Decline in associated gas production in South Kadi, Limbodara & Gamij fields.
? Assam: Less associated gas production, less off-take by GAIL/ APGCL.
? Tripura: Less off take by OTPC due to operational issues of OTPC.
? Rajahmundry: Tatipaka-Lanco pipeline incident, GAIL Pipeline still under repair (closure of39 Gas wells).
? Cauvery: Less gas production due to less demand by GAIL
2.3 OIL’s natural gas production during August, 2015 was 242.658 MMSCM which is 9.67% lower than the target for the month and 3.67% higher than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year.

Reasons for the shortfall are given below:
v RIL (KG-D6): Underperformance of MA wells.
v JV of BG, RIL & ONGC (M&S Tapti): Under performance of recently drilled 6 wells. Operator proposed for field abandonment.
v GSPC(KG-OSN-2001/3): Less than expected trial gas production from 3 wells.
v Prolonged dewatering in new wells in Raniganj South and Forest Clearance received late in Raniganj East
v Incidental CBM gas being produced and sold in Jharia, Jharkhand.
v Zero production since 9 June 2015 in Sohagpur East, M.P. and Incidental CBM gas being produced in small quantities in Sohagpur West, M.P.

Figure 3.1: Monthly Refinery Production (TMT)
3.2 PSU Refineries’ production during August, 2015 was 10296.550 TMT which is 3.97% higher than the target for the month and 1.53% lower than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year.

Reasons for shortfalls in PSU refineries are given below:
? IOCL, Guwahati: Throughput is restricted in line with crude availability.
? IOCL, Digboi: Throughput is restricted in line with crude availability.
? BPCL, Mumbai: Crude throughput during Aug’15 lower than Aug'14 due to shutdown of CCU & CCR units for maintenance activities and gain in intermediate feed stocks as compare to depletion in Aug'14.
? CPCL, Manali: Shortfall in production during Aug’15 due to planned shutdown of Refinery-3 in July-Aug'15.
? ONGC, Tatipaka: Shortfall in production due to Naphtha / LSHS up-liftment problems because of low demand
