Center to lessen Oil and Gas imports reliance from 77 % to 67% by the year 2022

Gas creation will probably contact 90 bn cubic meter by 2040

100% FDI permitted in investigation exercises of oil and gaseous petrol fields under programmed course. 49% FDI permitted in oil refining by the Public Sector Undertakings (PSU), with no disinvestment or weakening of residential value in the current PSUs under programmed course.

 

Industry Scenario

India has risen as a refinery center point.

India’s present refining limit remains at 230.1 MMPTA, containing 23 refineries. Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) rose as the biggest residential refiner with a limit of 69.2 MMTPA.

Top three organizations – RIL, IOC and BPCL – contribute around 65.5% of India’s aggregate refining limit while HPCL and CPCL contributes 6.7% and 5.1% separately.

Utilization of oil based commodities in India remained at 184.7 MMT in FY15-16, 194.6 MMT in FY16-17 and 204.9 MMT in 2017-18 (temporary). Besides, amid FY17, the creation of oil based commodities by fractionators was 3,458 (‘000) MT.

The anticipated CBM assets in the nation are around 92 TCF (2600 BCM) in 12 conditions of India. Keeping in mind the end goal to tackle CBM potential in the nation, the Government of India detailed CBM strategy in 1997 wherein CBM being Natural Gas is investigated and misused under the arrangements of OIL Fields (Regulation and Development) Act 1948 (ORD Act 1948) and Petroleum and Natural Gas Rules 1959 (P&NG Rules 1959) managed by Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas (MOP&NG).
