Figure-1: Monthly Crude Oil Production

 

Unit-wise production details with reasons for shortfall are as under:

    1. Crude oil production by ONGC in nomination block during October, 2020 was 1707.03 TMT which is 4.34%lower than target and0.35%lower when compared with October 2019. Cumulative crude oil production by ONGC during April-October, 2020 was 11860.92 TMT which is 3.44%and 0.87% lower than target for the period andproduction during corresponding period of last year respectively. Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:

 

  1. Production planned from WO16 cluster could not be realized due to delay in MOPU (Sagar Samrat) as activities at GPC yard Abu Dhabi got affected due to Covid restrictions/lockdown
  2. Production planned from new wells in Ratna field affected due to non- availability of Electrical Submersible Pumps  for well completion due to  implications of COVID-19
  3. New wells planned under Cluster 8 development project delayed due to toppling of D-30-2 platform jacket during installation and further delay in installation of new platforms due to COVID implications.

 

    1. Crude oil production by OIL in the nominationblock during October, 2020 was256.73 TMT which is 8.28% lower than the monthly target and 5.81% lower than the October, 2019. Cumulative crude oil production by OIL during April-October, 2020 was 1742.14 TMT which is 5.42% and 7.67% lower than target for the period and production during corresponding period of last year respectively. Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:

 

  1. Less than planned contribution from workover wells, drilling wells and old wells.
  2. Rise in water cut and decline in liquid production from existing wells.
  3. Bandhs /blockade by local people and associations etc. after the Baghjan Blowout, protests/agitation etc.

 

    1. Crude oil production by Pvt/JVscompanies in the PSC (production sharing contract) regime during October,2020 was 603.95 TMT which islower by 13.65% than the monthly target and 19.79%lowerthanOctober, 2019.Cumulative crude oil production by Pvt/JVs companies during April-October, 2020 was 4337.42 TMT which is 8.87% and 17.52% lower than target for the period and production during corresponding period of last year respectively.Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:

 

  1. RJ-ON-90/1(CEIL): (1) Mangala: - Major elements brought online in the last week of October, Slug catcher and sections of productions lines are to be hooked up. (2) Bhagyam: Artificial lift malfunction.  Delayed polymer injection. Addl. Downtime-Over Head Line/Grid failures. (3) Aishwarya: Delayed polymer injection. Additional downtime due to Electrical Submersible Pump failures in few wells. (4) ABH: Delay in hook-up of ABH Stage-2 wells. (5) Satellite Fields: Failure or flow cease in few wells. (6) Tukaram & Kaam-1: Well and Surface Facility construction schedule impacted by COVID-19.
  2. RAVVA (CEIL): Ullage problem due to Production reduced causing kink in Hose pipe in Aug-2020. Production reduced by 50% for few days in October 2020. Rectification job ongoing.
  3. CB-ONN-2003/1 (ONGC): Deviation due to non-acceptance of crude by Off the Shelf (OTS) Ravva (ullage problem).
  4. CB-ONN-2000/1 (GSPC): Well PK#2 became non-producing in Dec-2019 due to possible casing damage and reservoir issues.  Well SE_DEV#1, SE#1A and SE1#A1 is shut-in due to unavailability of effective demulsifier to break tight water and oil emulsion.
  5. CY-ONN-2002/2 (ONGC): Well MDDD couldn't be drilled and completed because of local agitation.
