UAE: ADCO offer BP 10% of Abu Dhabi’s onshore oilfields for US$2.2bn
The National - Anthony McAuley
BP has taken a 10 per cent stake in Abu Dhabi’s main onshore oilfield concession after a prolonged negotiation, agreeing to pay about US$2.2 billion for the stake through the issue of new shares.
As part of the deal, BP will become the manager of the Bab oilfield, one of the six main oilfields in the Abu Dhabi Company for Onshore Oil Operations (Adco) concession.
In an unusual move, BP has agreed to pay for its stake through the issue of new ordinary shares representing about 2 per cent of its issued share capital, to be held on behalf of the Abu Dhabi Government.

Poyry - UK Shale Gas - where are we now? - Point of ViewPöyry
Exploratory drilling activity on the part of shale gas developers remains low despite widespread coverage in the media and announcements that the UK is to “go all
out for shale”. Although regulation must remain thorough and robust, there is a risk that the complex approvals process will hinder production. Industry, government
and regulatory authorities should ensure that the institutional capacity is in place to make the approvals process efficient so that the potential benefits of shale gas can be realised.

Public Private Partnerships. Infrastructure Projects Plan in Indonesia.Oswar Mungkasa
The PPP Book aims to provide reliable information to prospective investors
on projects in the PPP pipeline. Its true value lies in the accuracy of the
information. Projects are categorized according to the stage of development
they have reached. A PPP project must be market ready in the true sense of
the word when it is categorized as “ready for offer”. What this implies is that
the basic conditions underlying its business case, such as land availability
and government support (if applicable) are largely met or soon to be met.
The current PPP Book is an update of the 2011 version, incorporating recent
developments. To date, 12 projects have been tendered out. In this 2012
version, there are 3 projects ready for offer, 26 projects under the category
“priority” and 29 projects under “potential”. There are 9 new projects that
are not in the 2011 PPP Book, of which 1 is classified as “priority” and 8
as “potential”. A significant difference from the 2011 version is that the
number of “potential” projects is reduced from 45 to 29 as a result of more
rigorous screening.

Adjusting OpenMP PageRank : SHORT REPORT / NOTESSubhajit Sahu
For massive graphs that fit in RAM, but not in GPU memory, it is possible to take
advantage of a shared memory system with multiple CPUs, each with multiple cores, to
accelerate pagerank computation. If the NUMA architecture of the system is properly taken
into account with good vertex partitioning, the speedup can be significant. To take steps in
this direction, experiments are conducted to implement pagerank in OpenMP using two
different approaches, uniform and hybrid. The uniform approach runs all primitives required
for pagerank in OpenMP mode (with multiple threads). On the other hand, the hybrid
approach runs certain primitives in sequential mode (i.e., sumAt, multiply).
Enhanced Enterprise Intelligence with your personal AI Data Copilot.pdfGetInData
Recently we have observed the rise of open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) that are community-driven or developed by the AI market leaders, such as Meta (Llama3), Databricks (DBRX) and Snowflake (Arctic). On the other hand, there is a growth in interest in specialized, carefully fine-tuned yet relatively small models that can efficiently assist programmers in day-to-day tasks. Finally, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures have gained a lot of traction as the preferred approach for LLMs context and prompt augmentation for building conversational SQL data copilots, code copilots and chatbots.
In this presentation, we will show how we built upon these three concepts a robust Data Copilot that can help to democratize access to company data assets and boost performance of everyone working with data platforms.
Why do we need yet another (open-source ) Copilot?
How can we build one?
Architecture and evaluation
Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.

The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Databasejavier ramirez
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.

4. Preface
Since opening up of Indian Petroleum Sector, the Upstream Exploration and Production segment has witnessed
structural realignments, bringing with it opportunities, as well as challenges. Brisk economic progress in this
period has led the Indian economy eyeing high GDP growth. Higher economic growth essentially involves greater
demand for energy. With more than 75% of the nation’s crude oil being imported at international market prices,
the pressures on the economy are mounting.
During 11th plan period, the crude oil prices touched a new high and put a real pressure on fast growing economies
like India. Towards the end of 11th plan crude oil prices cooled down & world also saw an economic slowdown.
The formulation of 12th plan posed major challenges in terms of reviving the economies, boosting investment &
continuing with the nation’s growth story. In the recent past there have been no big/major discoveries of Crude
Oil & producing oil fields are getting mature. Amidst global decline of major oil producing fields, ONGC’s fields are
no exception. Most of the major ONGC fields are more than 30 years old and have entered into natural decline
phase. Implementation of 24 schemes of IOR‐EOR has to a large extent compensated& is expected to compensate
for the decline of these major fields.
The resolve of the Indian government to provide petroleum products of mass consumption at affordable prices is
reflected in its policy of providing indigenously produced crude oil at discount to the Oil Marketing Companies
(OMCs) for subsidizing their under‐recoveries. This discount has resulted in lower realization for crude oil
5. produced by ONGC. With higher crude oil price, the cost of the services to E&P Industry are going up worldwide,
resulting in squeeze in the surplus for investment in exploration and production activities.
In the recent years ONGC has made significant discoveries in the East Coast in G‐1 & GS‐15, G‐4 & GS‐29,
Vashishtha, S‐1 and in block KG‐DWN‐98/2. Most of these discoveries relate to gas reserves. ONGC proposes to
develop these reserves by combining nearby locations in to cluster/ hub based development, which means using
common facilities like pipeline etc to optimize cost.
ONGC’s 12th Plan Exploration & Development program reflects both challenges and opportunities. ONGC
submitted a draft five year plan to Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas in July 2011. Many rounds of discussions
took place at various levels to deliberate the 12th Plan document.Planning Commission formulated India’s 12th
Plan including the inputs from entire nation. This 12th Plan document brings out detailed exploration &
Production programme of ONGC. This document contains detailed tables pertaining to Physical & Financial targets
of 12th Plan. A section of this document is dedicated to figure out the achievements during 11th Plan.
The figures stated for Crude oil production includes condensate receipt, where ever applicable, unless stated
otherwise. The summary of 11th Plan Achievements & 12th Plan targets is presented in Table A1 & A2 of the
document.
Besides the above, Planning Commission in its 12th Plan document observed that Oil & Gas companies need to
focus attention on the following:
6. The Petroleum Sector Companies are required to produce 5 MMTOE of energy from renewable and
unconventional energy sources towards becoming carbon neutral. The achievement of targets could be met by the
end of 12th plan to produce energy amounting to 5 MMTPA. Out of this, 1 MMTOE has been given as a target for
ONGC.
The oil companies have been informed to utilize the National Clean Energy Funds (NCEF) available for this
purpose.
It was also stressed that MOPNG may take up following issues recommended for implementation during the 12th
plan period for the Petroleum & Natural Gas sector as approved by the National Development Council (NDC):
Take up exploration in un‐licensed offshore areas‐Deccan basins and other technologically challenging
areas in Deep Water and sub‐basalt sediments.
Government should encourage import of cutting edge technology by upstream oil companies in Offshore
field development projects.
The oil companies may approach the National Clean Energy Fund (NCEF) to fund the innovative R&D
projects.
Induct qualified technical work force in large numbers.
Deploy the CSR funds for creating health and educational resources.

12th
Five Year Plan (2012-17) - Summary
1.0 Introduction
Amidst global decline of major oil producing fields, ONGC’s fields are no exception. Most of the major ONGC fields are more than 30
years old and have entered into natural decline phase. Implementation of IOR-EOR schemes has compensated for the decline of these
major fields to a large extent. ONGC’s 12th
Plan Exploration & Development program reflects both challenges and opportunities. The
12th
Plan proposals are based on the priorities of the organization and existing ground realities. The exploration activities are as per the
long term strategy of the organization. The summary of ONGC’s exploration & development plan is given in subsequent sections.
ONGC had submitted a draft five year plan to Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas in July 2011. Many rounds of discussions took place
at various levels to deliberate the 12th
Plan document. Planning Commission has formulated India’s 12th
Plan including the inputs from
various sectors across the country. This document has been worked out to bring the details of ONGC’s Exploration & Development
plan. This document contains detailed tables pertaining to Physical & Financial targets of 12th
Plan.
2.0 Exploration Programme:
An aggressive exploration programme is envisaged in 12th
Plan with focus on:
Nomination PEL blocks
Existing NELP & pre-NELP blocks
Existing PML blocks
Next phase in existing NELP blocks where ONGC may opt to enter into
Applied/ new PML blocks likely to be approved based on the positive results of exploration activities carried out in the current phase
Selected PML blocks to pursue the new deeper plays which require additional resources
9. 2
New blocks likely to be obtained under future NELP/ OLP rounds
2.1 Seismic Survey
During the 12th
plan period, the number of acreages available for exploration will keep on reducing every year & hence the seismic
survey is also expected to go down. As per the existing government policy, new exploration acreages can be acquired through the open
bidding process only. This policy is now proposed to be replaced by a new Open Licensing Policy under which a company can apply for
new exploration blocks any time. As almost all the areas in the producing basins has already seen a lot of activities in the past, only
relinquished portions of the nomination blocks held by ONGC till recently or NELP blocks relinquished by ONGC and other operators will
be available for bidding. These blocks may therefore require less of exploratory inputs. However, there are large blocks/ areas in other
Category-II/III/IV onland basins and deep / ultra deep water areas of producing as well as non-producing basins where still exists scope
of exploration.
ONGC’s activity planned for 2D seismic survey would be of the order of 28,170 Line Km (LKM) while 3D survey would be 24,163 sq. km
during the 12th
Plan period. The 2D and 3D survey are about 52% and 32% of the 11th
Plan target. The 2D survey would be gradually
falling down during the course of the 12th
Plan Period. Out of the total 2D data, ONGC plans to acquire 19670 LKM of 2D data in
existing nomination & NELP current phase blocks. Around 6500 LK of 2D and 12100 SK of 3D seismic data acquisition is planned to be
carried out in these future blocks.
Basin wise break-up of 2D & 3D seismic survey is given in table C-6. Further detailed break-up of 2D & 3D surveys in various NELP,
Nomination & future blocks is detailed in tables G1 to G9.
10. 3
2.2 Exploratory Drilling:
A total 611 exploratory wells are being planned to be drilled during the 12th
Plan which is marginally less (around 6.1%) from the 11th
Plan firm + upside target of 651 wells. However, this would enable ONGC to accrete initial in-place volume of hydrocarbon of 1080.0
MMToe for the 12th
Plan period which is about 108 % of the firm + upside figure for 11th
Plan target.
In the exploratory drilling activity, a total of 400 wells are planned to be drilled in onshore blocks & 211 wells in offshore blocks. Out of
211 offshore wells, 57 wells are planned in deep water (20 in MBA Basin, 23 in KG DW, 8 in Cauvery DW & 6 wells in West coast deep
waters). It is important to note that many of the blocks especially the ones awarded in NELP-VI and later rounds do not have much of
drilling commitments in the first phase. Depending on the results of seismic API, ONGC intends to enter into phase-II in some of the
blocks and drill the exploratory wells.
Basin wise break-up of exploratory drilling activities is given in table C-7. Further detailed break-up in various NELP, Nomination &
future blocks is detailed in tables H-1 to H-10.

As an outcome of exploration activities, ONGC plans to accrete initial in place hydrocarbon of 1080 MMToE which is about 8% more
than 11th plan target. Further the ultimate reserve accretion shall be 360 MMToe during this period.
The summary of year-wise physical activities of exploratory programme are stated in Table 1 above and comparison of 11th & 12th Plan
targets is given in Table 2 below:

3.0 Production & Development Programme
In the recent years ONGC has made significant discoveries in the East Coast in G-1 & GS-15, G-4 & GS-29, Vashishtha, S-1 and in
block KG-DWN-98/2 (i.e, D, E, KT-1, U, W, A, Kanakdurga and Padmavati). Most of these discoveries relate to gas reserves. During
12th
Plan ONGC proposes to develop these reserves by combining nearby locations in to cluster/ hub based development, which means
using common facilities like pipeline etc to optimize cost. The production from GS-15 has already commenced from 31st
August 2011,
while the other discoveries are currently under appraisal.

Due to the major thrust given to Marginal field development, which was earlier not techno-economically viable to develop, ONGC would
be bringing on production some of the Marginal fields during the 12th
Plan. This would give a boost to oil production in the initial years of
the 12th
Plan; however, being marginal in nature, production from these fields may fall sharply after achieving peak production.
Gas production is well poised to take off due to substantial discoveries in the East Coast and also due to the fact that the new and
marginal fields would be coming on to the production, though gas discoveries in deep and ultra deep waters may take little longer time
to come on production stream.
3.1 Crude oil Target
The 12th Plan envisages a crude oil (including condensate receipt) production target of 133.06 MMT of which 97.37 MMT is slated to
come from offshore and 35.69 MMT from onshore. The total production envisaged is around 7% more than the 11th plan actual
achievement. The contribution of ONGC’s crude share in JV fields is expected around 15.93 MMT during the 12th
Plan.
The envisaged increase in production in 12th
Plan from the estimated actual of the 11th
Plan would owe largely to the New and Marginal
Fields (NMFD) many of which would be coming on stream during the 12th Plan period, viz: Cluster 7, WO series, etc. Together with
other NMFDs like B-22+, B-193+ etc. the NMFDs contribution is likely be of over 11.7 MMT during the 12th
Plan Period. Some of the
discoveries made in the Eastern Offshore, viz, G-1, GS-15, and GS-29 and KG-98/2 are also expected to contribute over 1.8 MMT
during the plan period. Thus production during the plan period is expected to remain well above 25 MMT with a peak production of
28.27 MMT in 2013. However, being marginal in nature the production from these fields may not sustain after attaining the peak
production, and therefore production decline is envisaged after 2013-14 of the Plan Period.
13. 6
3.2 Natural Gas Production Target
The Natural Gas production target is envisaged at 144.30 BCM from ONGC operated fields, which would be the highest ever Five Year
Plan target. This target is almost 128 % more than the 11th Plan target. The offshore fields alone would contribute 116.02 BCM which
itself would be higher by 45 % from the 11th
Plan Target. The onshore fields share would be 27.891 BCM. The contribution of ONGC’s
Natural Gas share in JV fields is expected around 9.91 BCM during the 12th Plan.
Here again, NMFDs is expected to give a boost to the Natural Gas production during the 12th
Plan ie about 23.03 BCM, but the major
boost is expected to come due to production from the discoveries made in the East Coast. While fields like G-1/ GS-15, Vashistha etc.
would contribute over 6.27 BCM during the Plan period, the KG-98/2 discovery, which would come on stream in the far end of the Plan
period, i.e. in 2016-17 would alone contribute over 10 BCM. Another major production is envisaged from Daman+C-24 field which
would come on stream in 2015-16 and contribute around 4.9 BCM during the 12th
Plan. The other New and Marginal Fields in the
western Coast viz., B-22+, B-193, SB-14 B-series, Cluster 7, WO+, North Tapti etc. together are likely to contribute substantially during
12th
Plan period. Thus Gas production would remain above 25 BCM throughout, gradually increasing to a record 38.676 BCM in
terminal year 2016-17 of the Plan Period.
3.3 Natural Gas Sales
Natural gas sales target for the 12th Plan has been fixed at 117.06 BCM which is 141 % of the 11th Plan target of 82.912 BCM. The
total Gas Sales including ONGC’s share in JV fields of 9.12 BCM, shall be 126.18 BCM.
3.4 Value Added Products
Production target for Value Added Products (VAP) during the 12th Plan has been kept at 17.602 MT which is 7.7% higher than the 11th
Plan target of 16.346 MT.
14. 7
3.5 Development Drilling
The development drilling is expected to be of the order of 1120 wells during the 12th
Plan which is 112% of the 11th
Plan target of 1000
wells. The Onshore would contribute the lion share of 900 wells while development drilling in offshore would be of the order of 220 wells.
Out of 220 offshore wells, 87 wells are planned in New & Marginal field development and about 22 development wells are planned in
Eastern Offshore Assets.
The summary of year-wise physical activities of production programme are stated in Table 3 and comparison of 11th
& 12th
Plan targets

4.0. Strategy Options for enhancing Crude oil and Natural gas production
ONGC has been continuously taking various actions to improve/ augment the crude oil production. Various strategies have been
adopted not only to offset decline from producing mature fields but also, new frontiers are being explored for sustaining / improving
production. Following are the major strategies adopted in this regard:-
4.1 Focus areas
Gandhar sand pinchout prospects in the west of Gandhar field acquire significance in view of the recent discovery of gas in Aliabet.
Kalol/ Chhatral (Eocene Pays) hold significant hydrocarbon potential in the Cambay-Tarapur block as proved by discoveries in Chaklasi,
Nadiad, Siswa Anklav and Vadtal areas.
16. 9
Recent discoveries in Kalol / Kadi pays in Linch, Kadi and Jotana areas point to the left out hydrocarbon potential of these known plays
in the area to the east of Mehsana horst extending right upto basin margin where small accumulations in Mehsana and Mandhali
members are established.
Deeper Sylhet and Tura play exploration in Upper Assam is also an upcoming play which will be pursued in the 12th
Plan. However,
drilling issues will have to be addressed for deeper plays in Upper Assam and AAFB (M/ Lower Bhuban). Meanwhile, continuing
exploration for known and established plays (Tipam/ Barail in Upper Assam and Bokabil/ U Bhuban in AAFB) has given good results in
Geleki, Banmali, Khubal, Gojalia and Rokhia areas. To exploit the field growth potential of these known plays and also to commercialize
the nascent deeper plays in producing sectors of the basin, vigorous exploration in priority sectors is planned in 12th
Plan.
Recent significant successes obtained in synrift exploration in KG onland (Malleswaram), KG Offshore (Yanam, G-4-6) and Cauvery
onland (Periyakudi) show that, it is likely to be the play of next decade to be pursued in 12th
and 13th
Plan period. The important key to
success in exploration for these deeper plays is the improved seismic image. Large volumes of 3D seismic data were acquired in last 3-
4 years in both KG Cauvery basins and number of prospects based on these new data are identified which will be taken up for drilling in
the 12th
plan period. Drilling of these prospects is likely to give significant reserve accretion in both the known and new emerging plays
in these two basins. However, most of the wells could not be conclusively tested for want of tools and technology suited for HP-HT (High
Pressure & High Temperature) conditions. Proper drilling, testing and completion of HP-HT wells is a point of concern which has to be
overcome in the future.
Exploration for Cretaceous synrift plays in deep offshore, despite some setbacks, is likely to be continued in the 12th Plan also
considering the fact that this is one play in deep water where thermogenic accumulations can be expected.
The story though is not as successful in W Offshore basin as far as synrift Panna exploration in 11th plan is concerned; some serious
initiatives were taken with drilling of number of prospects in the basin. While significant gas shows have been observed while drilling
17. 10
through the Panna section, a commercial success may require some more efforts and better planning for drilling and testing of the
interesting objects in view of the high pressure / high temperature regime. Apart from this, the focus on known plays and subsidiary
plays in younger formations in the entire producing sector will definitely give reasonable returns.
Exploration efforts for Tertiary plays in Kutch Saurashtra have received a big boost with discovery of oil and gas in GK-28 area. In
addition, there is additional incentive for exploration in this area in the form of possibility of more hydrocarbons in Cretaceous section
also. However, success for the deeper Mesozoic play will be highly dependent on the seismic image quality. Efforts to improve the
image at deeper levels will continue to be focus of exploration.
4.2 Production enhancement through implementation of additional redevelopment projects/ IOR/EOR schemes by improving
recovery from existing fields
ONGC has already initiated actions in 15 major producing fields where production is being enhanced with the help of various additional
redevelopment projects/ IOR/EOR schemes, totalling 21 in numbers. The components of these projects include drilling of additional in-
fill wells with best available technologies to reduce the well spacing, rehabilitation of old wells by approaching new/ extended area,
drilling of additional wells through clamp-on structures on existing well platforms with the augmentation of production facilities, in-situ
combustion etc.
The contribution through IOR-EOR projects during 12th Plan is envisaged at 40.07 MMT of which 29.58 MMT would come from 9 of the
Offshore projects and 10.49 from 12 Onshore projects. This is over 30% of the total crude oil production targeted for the 12th
Plan
period.

9.759 9.158 7.933 6.929 6.291 40.07
18. 11
4.3 Production enhancement through Monetization of Marginal fields
In addition to re-development / additional development of existing fields, ONGC is giving major thrust to develop its marginal fields. The
main focus is on exploitation of hydrocarbon from Marginal fields (C series, B-193 cluster, B-22 cluster, North Tapti, Cluster 7 marginal
fields, B 46 and WO+ series) which were discovered earlier but could not be put on production due to adverse techno-economics and
want of new technology.
Some fields like D-1, SB-11 (Vasai West), Vasai East, C series and B134A have already been put on production. Development of
several other marginal fields like B-193+ cluster, B-46+ cluster, B-22+ cluster, Cluster 7, WO series and North Tapti etc., have been
approved and feasibility reports (FR) of few other marginal fields are under various stages of preparation.
ONGC is also fully committed to develop its oil and gas discoveries in the prolific Krishna Godavari basin, off the country's east coast.
Integrated development of G-1 and GS-15 project is under implementation. Also, ONGC has initiated actions for developing G-4, & GS-
29 Vashistha, S1 Field in KG offshore.
4.4 Production enhancement through Technology Induction and services of domain experts
ONGC has been employing the best in class technologies for pursuing its objective of improving production from its oil fields/wells.
These measures include application of state-of-the-art and fit-for-purpose technologies suited for western offshore reservoirs. ONGC
has adopted the latest technologies in the area of Drilling operations, Well completion, Stimulation; Work over Operations, Artificial Lift,
Water Injection, Offshore Production facilities and remote monitoring/ control of operations and production optimization.
ONGC has been sourcing the services of international experts/ consulting firms for assisting in finding technical solutions for various
critical problems/ offshore operations and for better technology absorption for improving productivity.
19. 12
5.0 Strategies for development of alternate sources of Oil & Gas
Being finite resources, oil and gas may need substitution and may need it sooner if we go by the proponent of Peak Oil theory.
Moreover, with growing climate concern we also need to look for cleaner fuel.
ONGC had been the pioneer in exploration for some of the alternate forms of gas, viz. CBM, UCG, Shale Gas and Gas Hydrates. Some
of the strategies proposed to be adopted during 12th
Plan for further exploration and exploitation of these alternate sources are given
under.
5.1 Coal Bed Methane (CBM)
The CBM strategies for 12th
Plan envisage focus on activities in the Jahria and Raniganj nomination blocks and the Bokaro and North
Karanpura CBM Blocks. The strategies for each of these blocks during the 12th Plan are given here under:
5.1.1 Jharia Block
Parbarpur Sector: Out of 18 sq. km of Parbatpur area 8.8 sq km in the overlapping coal mining Block is not considered for any CBM
activities in the 12th Plan. Out of remaining 9.2 sq. km, available area (after allowances for inhabited area, railway lines, forest land etc.)
works out to be only 5 sq. km in 3 patches in North, West and South and an approx. estimation indicates maximum number of wells that
can be drilled is only 20. The overlapping area is kept out of any future plan.
Other Sector: The prospective area in Other Sector is 20 sq km (approx.) in 3 disjointed areas (Mahal in the East of Parbatpur, Aluara-
Dumarda in the West of Parbatpur and Dharmabundh-Kharkharee in the Northwestern part of the Block located on the other side in the
North of Damodar River). With 40 Acre spacing, keeping allowances for other factors viz. inhabited areas, railway lines, forest land etc.
approx. a total of 82 wells can be drilled in this Sector. However, the techno-economic viability of the project is to be established. In the
light of interest shown by a Company to work jointly with ONGC in these areas through farm-in option, the same with Operatorship to
the other Company seems to be a better proposition. With the assumption that such an alliance will materialise in near future, 102 wells
(82 in Other Sector + 20 in Parbatpur Sector) are kept under Upside Category for Jharia Block.
20. 13
5.1.2 Raniganj Block
Sector-B: In this Sector the prospective area is approx. 40 sq. km. There are overlapping issues with Bengal Aerotropolis Project
(BAPL), Ichapur and Moira Madhujhore coal mining Blocks. Besides these complications it may be relevant to mention that acquisition
of land, being in the highly industrialised area, is extremely difficult following all procedures and also involve huge cost. 2-3 Companies,
however, has shown interest to join hands with ONGC for a quick assessment of the area through farm-in option with Operatorship and
continue to work subsequently for developmental work. With the assumption that such an alliance will materialise in near future, the
developmental work involving drilling in 40 sq. km area (with 80 Acre spacing) has been provisioned in the Upside Category of 12th
Plan.
5.1.3 Bokaro Block
The Development Plan of the Block has been submitted to DGH. In the Technical Committee Meeting held in May, 2011 the
Development Plan is agreed with certain modifications. The Development Plan involves drilling of 146 wells in 2 disjointed patches.
From the past experience in the Exploratory and Pilot Phases extreme difficulties have been faced in acquisition of land. Under the
circumstances, to overcome these difficulties, again the farm-in option with Operatorship to the other Company seems to be the
available way forward. With the assumption for such an alliance to materialise in near future, the 146 wells (110 wells in Patch-A and 36
wells in Patch-B) are kept under Firm Category for Bokaro Block.
5.1.4 North Karanpura Block
The Block has a prospective area of 80 sq. km (in Sector-C). No gas break has been observed yet and at present testing is continued
through cluster wells to achieve early gas break out. Anticipating gas break shortly, 247 Development wells are planned (considering 80
Acre spacing) and kept in Upside Category of 12th and 13th Plan with 123 and 124 wells respectively. In view of difficulties in land
acquisition, availability of site plots matching with the drilling schedule is not possible. To tide over the difficulties, farm-in option with
Operatorship to the other Company is the viable option. However, in case gas break cannot be achieved prior to the time available for
Phase-II work completion, ONGC may have to surrender the Block.
21. 14
5.2 Shale Gas
As of now Shale Gas exploration is in the nascent R&D stage in the Indian hydrocarbon sector and ONGC is the first to venture into this
play which is a technology and capital intensive venture. The shale gas flow recorded in ONGC’s maiden well in the Raniganj area is a
first step in Shale gas exploration. However, the well is to be conclusively tested to know the flow rates, reservoir parameters and
commerciality. Activities envisaged in the field of Shale Gas Exploration in the 12th Five Year Plan and later are as follows:
Initially, in the absence of Shale Gas Policy in the Country, special permission to carry out Shale Gas R&D in our CBM acreages was
obtained from MOP&NG. Nevertheless, ONGC can apply for award of its present areas of R&D, on nomination basis, depending on
Policy and prospectivity concluded from the Shale Gas Project.
Generation of Shale Gas critical parameters like gas content, shale characterization and other geochemical parameters, are to be
generated in other Basins as an R&D measure, while drilling through the shale sections. Shale reservoir characterization and modeling
of various basins/ fields/ with novel data set to find optimum well locations. Gain insights into the best hydraulic fracturing technologies
and frac fluids which may help optimize production and find cost-effective solution to the challenges associated with water management
and other environmental issues.
Permission to carry out Shale Gas R&D was accorded vide letter of MOP&NG No. 19018/3/2009-ONG-I dtd.06th Nov.’09 which states
“In case after the studies, shale gas is found commercially viable, then ONGC will submit the detailed proposal which will be separately
considered by the Government and will be governed by separate policies, outside the existing CBM Contract”.
Therefore, after completion of the Shale Gas R&D Project in Damodar Valley a comprehensive evaluation of their potential will be
realized, facilitating the decision to seek award on nomination basis. As of now, it appears that the Raniganj acreage is prospective and
needs to be pursued further. Appraisal horizontal well in the Raniganj Block can be drilled to know the actual potential and deliverability
22. 15
of the Barren Measures Shales. Shale gas/oil Pilot project similar to the present Project can be launched in Cambay and KG Basins with
requisite permission from MOP&NG.
2D seismic campaign in Raniganj Block for delineating the Barren Measures is for further Shale Gas exploration in the area. Generation
of Shale gas specific data (desorption, shale typing etc.) to continue in other basins as an R&D endeavor.
Upside: Other acreages likely to be opened up in the first offer are in Cambay, KG, Cauvery and Ganga Basins. Of these Cambay and
KG, prima facie have Shale Gas potential and need to be pursued in the forthcoming bidding rounds.
5.3 Underground Coal Gasification (UCG)
ONGC took initiative for exploitation of UCG with signing of an Agreement of Collaboration (AOC) with Skochinsky Institute of Mining,
Russia on 25th November, 2004 for implementation of Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) project in India.
In order to make a dent on the energy front through use of UCG technology, a number of additional sites, besides Vastan where Pilot
Project were jointly identified by ONGC & NLC for studying their suitability to UCG. These are Tadkeshwar in Gujarat and Hodu -
Sindhari & East Kurla in Rajasthan. One more site was jointly identified by ONGC & GMDC viz. Surkha in Bhavnagar Distt., Gujarat.
The data of all the fields have already been analysed for evaluating the suitability of these sites for UCG and all the sites have been
found suitable for UCG. The projects will be taken up on the basis of learning curve from Vastan project. Tadkeshwar site of NLC is
likely to be taken up after Vastan project.
5.4 Gas Hydrates
ONGC envisages continuing effort to identify prospective areas for drilling/ coring/ logging for exploration/ exploitation of Gas Hydrate in
Indian offshore and design novel technique for its production/ extraction. NGHP, Steering Committee in collaboration with MOP&NG is
to decide the physical future Plan for GH exploration in the XII and XIII Plan.
23. 16
6.0 Plan Outlay 12th
Plan:
The 12th Plan envisages a Plan outlay of Rs. 163,956 Crore which is 216% higher than the 11th Plan outlay of Rs. 75,984 Crore.
However, the 12th Plan outlay is 136% of the envisaged actual Plan expenditure of Rs. 120,552 Crore during 11th Plan. The major
jump in the outlay from 11th Plan is due to the exploratory and development drilling and Capital projects component. While there is
373% increase in plan outlay of Exploratory drilling, rising from Rs. 11,984 Crore in 11th Plan to Rs.44661.8 crore during 12th Plan due
to higher thrust in deep water drilling. The deep water wells envisaged in 12th plan STP are 57 against STP target of 33 wells in 11th
plan STP for ONGC. Further there is 168% increase in total development drilling cost ( Development wells envisaged in 12th plan STP
are 1120 vis a vis 1000 wells in 11th plan) and 257% increase in Capital projects from 11th Plan outlay. Increase in capital outlay is
mainly due to schemes pertaining to Marginal field development which were not techno-economically feasible earlier.
6.1 Survey Expenditure
As brought out earlier, the planned activity for survey during the XII th five year plan is 28,170 GLK for 2D and 24,163 SKM for 3D. The
corresponding expenditure for the XII five year plan is Rs 6,293 Crore. In the XI Five year plan the planned activity for survey was
54,359 GLK for 2D and 76,398 SKM for 3D. The corresponding outlay for the XI five year plan was Rs 7,581.38 Crores. The total
expenditure on account of survey is lower in XII five year plan as compared to XI Five year plan because of lower physical targets.
6.2 Exploratory Expenditure
As brought out, the planned activity for exploration during the 12th five year plan is 611 wells, out of which 57 are deep water wells, 154
shallow water and 400 are onshore wells. The corresponding total expenditure for the 12th five year plan is Rs 44,662 Crore. In the
11th five year plan the planned activity for exploratory drilling was 651 wells. The corresponding plan outlay for the 11th five year plan
was Rs 11,984 Crore. The expenditure on account of exploratory is higher under 12th five year plan as compared to 11th five year plan
24. 17
because of higher number of deep water wells and increase in rig hiring charges. The higher expenditure, however, on account of
survey and exploratory well amounting to Rs 50,955 Crore in 12th Plan will result in higher reserve accretion than the 11th Plan.
6.3 Development Drilling
The planned activity for development drilling during the 12th
five year plan is 1,120 wells. The corresponding expenditure for the 12th
five
year plan is Rs 26,505 crore. In the 11th
five year plan, the planned activity for development was 1,000 wells. The outlay on account of
development is higher under 12th
five year plan as compared to 11th five year plan because of increase in rig hiring charges and
increase in physical plan to sustain production from aging field and incremental production from marginal fields.
6.4 Captial Projects & Purchases
The total capital outlay for 12th five year plan is kept at Rs 79263.52 Crore (excl JV). The expenditure on account of capital includes
major schemes approved by the ONGC Board and under implementation stage. Further schemes envisaged during the 12th
five year
plans have also been included at an estimated price. During 11th
five year plan the total capital outlay was kept at Rs 30,834 crore which
is lower than 12th
five year plan because of major schemes in Offshore for development of new and marginal fields as well as
development of East Coast discoveries, Daman + C24 discovery, and Redevelopment of Assam and Western Onshore Assets, which
will translate into increase in Crude oil/Gas production.
6.5 Integration/ Acquisition projects
The outlay on account of Integration/ Acquisition projects during 12th
five year plan has been kept at Rs 1403 Crore against the 11th
plan
of Rs 4,189 Crore. Towards integration projects, ONGC is planning to venture in City Gas Distribution (CGD) projects in 10 cities along
with BPCL. At the same time ONGC is also planning to secure equity stake in upcoming LNG Projects as well as bringing equity gas as
LNG to the country. In line with Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission, ONGC is planning to set up grid connected solar power
projects (25 MW each for PV and Thermal).
25. 18
6.6 Research & Development and Institutes
