1. A Study on Energy Sector

1.1. Energy Sector- Introduction:-

The Energy Sector is the totality of all of the industries involved in the production and sale of energy, including fuel extraction, manufacturing, refining and distribution. Modern society consumes large amounts of fuel, and the energy industry is a crucial part of the infrastructure and maintenance of society all over the world.

In particular, the Energy Sector comprises:-

the petroleum industry, including oil companies, petroleum refiners, fuel transport and end-user sales at gas stations

the gas industry, including natural gas extraction, and coal gas manufacture, as well as distribution and sales

the electrical power industry, including electricity generation, electric power distribution and sales the coal industry the nuclear power industry the renewable energy industry, comprising alternative energy and sustainable energy companies,

including those involved in hydroelectric power, wind power, and solar power generation, and the manufacture, distribution and sale of alternative fuels

traditional energy industry based on the collection and distribution of firewood, the use of which, for cooking and heating, is particularly common in poorer countries

1.1.2. History:-

The use of energy has been a key in the development of the human society by helping it to control

and adapt to the environment. Managing the use of energy is inevitable in any functional society. In the

industrialized world the development of energy resources has become essential for agriculture,

transportation, waste collection, information technology, communications that have become prerequisites of

a developed society. The increasing use of energy since the Industrial Revolution has also brought with it a

number of serious problems, some of which, such as global warming, present potentially grave risks to the

world.

In society and in the context of humanities, the word energy is used as a synonym of energy

resources, and most often refers to substances like fuels, petroleum products and electricity in general. These

are sources of usable energy, in that they can be easily transformed to other kinds of energy sources that can

serve a particular useful purpose. This difference via energy in natural sciences can lead to some confusion,

because energy resources are not conserved in nature in the same way as energy is conserved in the context

of physics. The actual energy content is always conserved, but when it is converted into heat for example, it

usually becomes less useful to society, and thus appears to have been "used up".

Ever since humanity discovered various energy resources available in nature, it has been inventing devices,

known as machines that make life more comfortable by using energy resources. Thus, although the primitive

man knew the utility of fire to cook food, the invention of devices like gas burners and microwave ovens has

increased the usage of energy for this purpose alone manifold. The trend is the same in any other field of

social activity, be it construction of social infrastructure, manufacturing of fabrics for covering; porting;

printing; decorating, for example textiles, air conditioning; communication of information or for moving

people and goods (automobiles).

1.1.3. Energy economics :-

Production and consumption of energy resources is very important to the global economy. All

economic activity requires energy resources, whether to manufacture goods, provide transportation, run

computers and other machines.

Widespread demand for energy may encourage competing energy utilities and the formation of retail energy

markets. Note the presence of the "Energy Marketing and Customer Service" (EMACS) sub-sector.

1.1.4. Energy Demand Management :-

Since the cost of energy has become a significant factor in the performance of economy of societies,

management of energy resources has become very crucial. Energy management involves utilizing the

available energy resources more effectively that is with minimum incremental costs. Many times it is

possible to save expenditure on energy without incorporating fresh technology by simple management

techniques. Most often energy management is the practice of using energy more efficiently by eliminating

energy wastage or to balance justifiable energy demand with appropriate energy supply. The process couples

energy awareness with energy conservation.

1.1.5 Energy Sector Classification:-

1.1.5.1 Government Classifications:-

The United Nations developed the International Standard Industrial Classification, which is a list of

economic and social classifications. There is no distinct classification for an energy industry, because the

classification system is based on activities, products, and expenditures according to purpose.

Countries in North America use the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The NAICS

sectors #21 and #22 (mining and utilities) might roughly define the energy industry in North America. This

classification is used by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

1.1.5.2 Financial Market Classification:-

The Global Industry Classification Standard used by Morgan Stanley define the energy industry as

comprising companies primarily working with oil, gas, coal and consumable fuels, excluding companies

working with certain industrial gases.

1.1.6 Environmental impact of the Energy Industry:-

Government encouragement in the form of subsidies and tax incentives for energy-conservation

efforts has increasingly fostered the view of conservation as a major function of the energy industry: saving

an amount of energy provides economic benefits almost identical to generating that same amount of energy.

This is compounded by the fact that the economics of delivering energy tend to be priced for capacity as

opposed to average usage. One of the purposes of a smart grid infrastructure is to smooth out demand so that

capacity and demand curves align more closely.

Some parts of the energy industry generate considerable pollution, including toxic and greenhouse

gases from fuel combustion, nuclear waste from the generation of nuclear power, and oil spillages as a result

of petroleum extraction. Government regulations to internalize these externalities form an increasing part of

doing business, and the trading of carbon credits and pollution credits on the free market may also result in

energy-saving and pollution-control measures becoming even more important to energy providers.

Consumption of energy resources, (e.g. turning on a light) requires resources and has an effect on the

environment. Many electric power plants burn coal, oil or natural gas in order to generate electricity for

energy needs. While burning these fossil fuels produces a readily available and instantaneous supply of

electricity, it also generates air pollutants including carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur dioxide and trioxide (SOx)

and nitrogen oxides (NOx). Carbon dioxide is an important greenhouse gas which is thought to be

responsible for some fraction of the rapid increase in global warming seen especially in the temperature

records in the 20th century, as compared with tens of thousands of years worth of temperature records which

can be read from ice cores taken in Arctic regions. Burning fossil fuels for electricity generation also

releases trace metals such as beryllium, cadmium, chromium, copper, manganese, mercury, nickel, and

silver into the environment, which also act as pollutants.

The large-scale use of renewable energy technologies would "greatly mitigate or eliminate a wide

range of environmental and human health impacts of energy use". Renewable energy technologies include

Bio-fuels, solar heating and cooling, hydroelectric power, solar power, and wind power. Energy

conservation and the efficient use of energy would also help.

In addition, it is argued that there is also the potential to develop a more efficient energy sector. This can be

done by:_

Fuel switching in the power sector from coal to natural gas;

Power plant optimization and other measures to improve the efficiency of existing CCGT power

plants;

Combined heat and power (CHP), from micro-scale residential to large-scale industrial;

Waste heat recovery

Best available technology (BAT) offers supply-side efficiency levels far higher than global averages.

The relative benefits of gas compared to coal are influenced by the development of increasingly efficient

energy production methods. According to an impact assessment carried out for the European Commission,

the levels of energy efficiency of coal-fired plants built have now increased to 46-49% efficiency rates, as

compared to coals plants built before the 1990s (32-40%).[10] However, at the same time gas is can reach 58-

59% efficiency levels with the best available technology.[10] Meanwhile, combined heat and power can offer

efficiency rates of 80-90%.[10]

1.1.7. Politics:-

Since now energy plays an essential role in industrial societies, the ownership and control of energy

resources plays an increasing role in politics. At the national level, governments seek to influence the

sharing (distribution) of energy resources among various sections of the society through pricing

mechanisms; or even who owns resources within their borders. They may also seek to influence the use of

energy by individuals and business in an attempt to tackle environmental issues.

The most recent international political controversy regarding energy resources is in the context of the

Iraq wars. Some political analysts maintain that the hidden reason for both 1991 and 2003 wars can be

traced to strategic control of international energy resources. Others counter this analysis with the numbers

related to its economics. According to the latter group of analysts, U.S. has spent about $336 billion in Iraq

as compared with a background current value of $25 billion per year budget for the entire U.S. oil import

dependence.

1.1.8. Energy Policy :-

Energy policy is the manner in which a given entity (often governmental) has decided to address issues of

energy development including energy production, distribution and consumption. The attributes of energy

policy may include legislation, international treaties, incentives to investment, guidelines for energy

conservation, taxation and other public policy techniques.

1.1.9. Energy Security :-

Energy security is the intersection of national security and the availability of natural

resources for energy consumption. Access to cheap energy has become essential to the functioning of

modern economies. However, the uneven distribution of energy supplies among countries has led to

significant vulnerabilities. Threats to energy security include the political instability of several

energy producing countries, the manipulation of energy supplies, the competition over energy

sources, attacks on supply infrastructure, as well as accidents, natural disasters, the funding to

foreign dictators, rising terrorism, and dominant countries reliance to the foreign oil supply. The

limited supplies, uneven distribution, and rising costs of fossil fuels, such as oil and gas, create a

need to change to more sustainable energy sources in the foreseeable future. With as much

dependence that the U.S. currently has for oil and with the peaking limits of oil production;

economies and societies will begin to feel the decline in the resource that we have become dependent

upon. Energy security has become one of the leading issues in the world today as oil and other

resources have become as vital to the world's people. However with oil production rates decreasing

and oil production peak nearing the world has come to protect what resources we have left in the

world. With new advancements in renewable resources less pressure has been put on companies that

produce the worlds oil, these resources are, geothermal, solar power, wind power and hydro-electric.

Although these are not all the current and possible future options for the world to turn to as the oil

depletes the most important issue is protecting these vital resources from future threats. These new

resources will become more useful as the price of exporting and importing oil will increase due to

increase of demand.

1.1.10. Energy Development :-

Producing energy to sustain human needs is an essential social activity, and a great deal of effort

goes into the activity. While most of such effort is limited towards increasing the production of electricity

and oil, newer ways of producing usable energy resources from the available energy resources are being

explored. One such effort is to explore means of producing hydrogen fuel from water. Though hydrogen use

is environmentally friendly, its production requires energy and existing technologies to make it, are not very

efficient. Research is underway to explore enzymatic decomposition of biomass.

Other forms of conventional energy resources are also being used in new ways. Coal gasification and

liquefaction are recent technologies that are becoming attractive after the realization that oil reserves, at

present consumption rates, may be rather short lived. See alternative fuels.

1.1.11. Energy Transportation:-

All societies require materials and food to be transported over distances, generally against some

force of friction. Since application of force over distance requires the presence of a source of usable energy,

such sources are of great worth in society.

While energy resources are an essential ingredient for all modes of transportation in society, the

transportation of energy resources is becoming equally important. Energy resources are frequently located

far from the place where they are consumed. Therefore their transportation is always in question. Some

energy resources like liquid or gaseous fuels are transported using tankers or pipelines, while electricity

transportation invariably requires a network of grid cables. The transportation of energy, whether by tanker,

pipeline, or transmission line, poses challenges for scientists and engineers, policy makers, and economists

to make it more risk-free and efficient.

1.1.12. Energy Crises:-

Graphical Image of Oil prices from 1861 to Present

Economic and political instability can lead to an energy crisis. Notable oil crises are the 1973 oil

crisis and the 1979 oil crisis. The advent of peak oil, the point in time when the maximum rate of global

petroleum extraction is reached, will likely precipitate another energy crisis.

1.2. Sector:-

Here, in this study, we will prepare a report on Energy Sector- Explorer, Producer & Supplier of “Oil

& Natural Gas,” especially engaged in our country having Global presence to meet the Energy Demand of

our Nation at the very competitive prices.

2.1.2. ONGC- In Brief:-

Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC); (NSE: ONGC, BSE: 500312) is an Indian

multinational oil and gas company headquartered in Dehradun, Uttra Khand, India. It is one of the largest

Asia-based oil and gas exploration and production companies, and produces around 72% of India's crude oil

(equivalent to around 30% of the country's total demand) and around 48% of its natural gas. It is one of the

largest publicly traded companies by market capitalization in India. ONGC has been ranked 357th in the

Fortune Global 500 list of the world's biggest corporations for the year 2012. It is also among the Top 250

Global Energy Company by Platt’s.

ONGC was founded on 14 August 1956 by the Indian state, which currently holds a 69.23% equity

stake. It is involved in exploring for and exploiting hydrocarbons in 26 sedimentary basins of India, and

owns and operates over 11,000 kilometres of pipelines in the country. Its international subsidiary ONGC

Videsh currently has projects in 15 countries.ONGC has discovered 6 of the 7 commercially-producing

Indian Basins, in the last 50 years, adding over 7.1 billion tonnes of In-place Oil & Gas volume of

hydrocarbons in Indian basins. Against a global decline of production from matured fields, ONGC has

maintained production from its Brown fields like Mumbai High, with the help of aggressive investments in

various IOR (Improved Oil Recovery) and EOR (Enhanced Oil Recovery) schemes. . Recovery Factor has

improved from 28 per cent [in 2000] to 33.5 per cent (in 2011). Significantly Reserve Replenishment Ratio

for the last 7 years, has been more than one.

2.2. ONGC- History:-

2.2.1. Foundation to 1961:-

During the pre-independence period, the Assam Oil Company in the North-Eastern and Attock Oil

Company in North-Western part of the undivided India were the only oil companies producing oil in the

country, with minimal exploration input. The major part of Indian sedimentary basins was deemed to be

unfit for development of oil and gas resources.

After independence, the national Government realized the importance of oil and gas for rapid

industrial development and its strategic role in defence. Consequently, while framing the Industrial Policy

Statement of 1948, the development of petroleum industry in the country was considered to be of utmost

necessity.

Until 1955, private oil companies mainly carried out exploration of Hydrocarbon resources of India.

In Assam, the Assam Oil Company was producing oil at Digboi (discovered in 1889) and Oil India Ltd. (a

50% joint venture between Government of India and Burmah Oil Company) was engaged in developing two

newly discovered large fields Naharkatiya and Moraan in Assam. In West Bengal, the Indo-Stanvac

Petroleum project (a joint venture between Government of India and Standard Vacuum Oil Company of

USA) was engaged in exploration work. The vast sedimentary tract in other parts of India and adjoining

offshore remained largely unexplored.

In 1955, Government of India decided to develop the oil and natural gas resources in various regions

of the country as part of the Public Sector development. With this objective, an Oil and Natural Gas

Directorate was set up towards the end of 1955, as a subordinate office under the then Ministry of Natural

Resources and Scientific Research. The department was constituted with a nucleus of geoscientists from the

Geological survey of India.

A delegation under the leadership of Mr. K D Malviya, the-then Minister of Natural Resources,

visited several European countries to study the status of oil industry in those countries and to facilitate the

training of Indian professionals for exploring potential oil and gas reserves. Experts from Romania, the

Soviet Union, the United States and West Germany subsequently visited India and helped the government

with their expertise. Soviet experts later drew up a detailed plan for geological and geophysical surveys and

drilling operations to be carried out in the 2nd Five Year Plan (1956-57 to 1960-61).

In April 1956, the Government of India adopted the Industrial Policy Resolution, which placed

mineral oil industry among the schedule 'A' industries, the future development of which was to be the sole

and exclusive responsibility of the state.

Soon, after the formation of the Oil and Natural Gas Directorate, it became apparent that it would not

be possible for the Directorate with its limited financial and administrative powers as subordinate office of

the Government, to function efficiently. So in August, 1956, the Directorate was raised to the status of a

commission with enhanced powers, although it continued to be under the government. In October 1959, the

Commission was converted into a statutory body by an act of the Indian Parliament, which enhanced powers

of the commission further. The main functions of the Oil and Natural Gas Commission subject to the

provisions of the Act, were "to plan, promote, organize and implement programmes for development of

Petroleum Resources and the production and sale of petroleum and petroleum products produced by it, and

to perform such other functions as the Central Government may, from time to time, assign to it ". The act

further outlined the activities and steps to be taken by ONGC in fulfilling its mandate.

2.2.2 ONGC 1961 to 2000:-

Since its inception, ONGC has been instrumental in transforming the country's limited upstream sector into

a large viable playing field, with its activities spread throughout India and significantly in overseas

territories. In the inland areas, ONGC not only found new resources in Assam but also established new oil

province in Cambay basin (Gujarat), while adding new petro-liferous areas in the Assam-Arakan Fold Belt

and East coast basins (both inland and offshore). ONGC went offshore in early 70's and discovered a giant

oil field in the form of Bombay High, now known as Mumbai High. This discovery, along with subsequent

discoveries of huge oil and gas fields in Western offshore changed the oil scenario of the country.

Subsequently, over 5 billion tonnes of hydrocarbons, which were present in the country, were discovered.

The most important contribution of ONGC, however, is its self-reliance and development of core

competence in E&P activities at a globally competitive level.

ONGC became a publicly held company in February 1994, with 20% of its equity were sold to the

public and eighty percent retained by the Indian government. At the time, ONGC employed 48,000 people

and had reserves and surpluses worth 104.34 billion, in addition to its intangible assets. The corporation's

net worth of 107.77 billion was the largest of any Indian company.

In 1958 the then Chairman, Keshav Dev Malaviya, held a meeting with some geologists in the

Missouri office of the Geology Directorate where he accepted the need for ONGC to go outside India too in

order to enhance Indian owned capacity for oil production. The argument in support for this step by L. P.

Mathur and BS Negi, was that Indian demand for crude would go up at a faster rate than discoveries by

ONGC in India.

Malaviya followed this up by making ONGC apply for exploration licences in the Persian Gulf. Iran

gave ONGC four blocks and Malaviya visited Milan and Bartlesville to request ENI and Phillips Petroleum

to join as partners in the Iran venture. This resulted in the discovery of the Rostum oilfield in the early

'sixties, very soon after the discovery of Ankleshwar in Gujarat. This was the very first investment by the

Indian public sector in foreign countries and oil from Rostum and Raksh was brought to Cochin where it

was refined in a refinery built with technical assistance from Phillips.

2.2.3. ONGC 2000 to present:-

In 2003, ONGC Videsh acquired Talisman Energy's 25% stake in the Greater Nile Oil project.

In 2006 a commemorative coin set was issued to mark the 50th anniversary of the founding of ONGC,

making it only the second Indian company (State Bank of India being the first) to have such a coin issued in

its honour.

In 2011, ONGC applied to purchase of 2000 acres of land at Dahanu to process offshore gas. ONGC

Videsh, along with Statoil ASA (Norway) and Repsol SA (Spain), has been engaged in deepwater drilling

off the northern coast of Cuba in 2012. On 11 August 2012, ONGC announced that it had made a large oil

discovery in the D1 oilfield off the West coast of India, which will help it to raise the output of the field

from around 12,500 barrels per day (bpd) to a peak output of 60,000 bpd. In November 2012, ONGC Videsh

agreed to acquire ConocoPhillips' 8.4% stake in the Kashagan oilfield in Kazakhstan for around US$5

billion, in ONGC's largest acquisition to date. The acquisition is subject to the approval of the governments

of Kazakhstan and India and also to other partners in the Caspian Sea field waiving their pre-emption rights.

ONGC is currently the most profitable Public Sector Firm of India. It has topped the coveted list of

top ten most profit-making PSUs of India for the year of 2011-12.

ONGC is currently executing various projects across India. ONGC in the year 2013 August has

posted a net profit of Rs 4,015 crores for the first quarter of FY14.

2.2.4. ONGC Videsh:-

ONGC Videsh Limited (OVL) is the international arm of ONGC. It was rechristened on 15 June

1989. It currently has 14 projects across 16 countries. Its oil and gas production reached 8.87 MMT of

O+oEG in 2010, up from 0.252 MMT of O+OEG in 2002/03.

2.2.5. ONGC Tripura Power Company:-

ONGC Tripura Power Company Ltd (OTPC) is a joint venture which was formed in September 2008

between ONGC, Infrastructure Leasing and Financial Services Limited and the Government of Tripura. It is

developing a 726.6 MW CCGT thermal power generation project at Palatana in Tripura which will supply

electricity to the power deficit areas of the North-Eastern states of the country.

2.2.6 ONGC Synopsis:-

ONGC was set up under the visionary leadership of Pandit Jawaharlal Lal Nehru. Pandit Nehru reposed faith

in Sri Keshav Dev Malviya who laid the foundation of ONGC in the form of Oil and Gas division, under

Geological Survey of India, in 1955. A few months later, it was converted into an Oil and Natural Gas

Directorate. The Directorate was converted into Commission and christened Oil & Natural Gas Commission

on 14th August 1956. In 1994, Oil and Natural Gas Commission was converted in to a Corporation, and in

1997 it was recognized as one of the Navratna’s by the Government of India. Subsequently, it has been

conferred with Maharatna status in the year 2010.

Over 56 years of its existence ONGC has crossed many a milestone to realize the energy dreams of

India. The journey of ONGC, over these years, has been a tale of conviction, courage and commitment.

ONGCs’ superlative efforts have resulted in converting earlier frontier areas into new hydrocarbon

provinces. From a modest beginning, ONGC has grown to be one of the largest E&P companies in the world

in terms of reserves and production.

ONGC as an integrated Oil & Gas Corporate has developed in-house capability in all aspects of

exploration and production business i.e., Acquisition, Processing & Interpretation (API) of Seismic data,

drilling, work-over and well stimulation operations, engineering & construction, production, processing,

refining, transportation, marketing, applied R&D and training, etc.

Today, Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Ltd. (ONGC) is, the leader in Exploration & Production

(E&P) activities in India having 72% contribution to India’s total production of crude oil and 48% of natural

gas. ONGC has established more than 7 Billion Tonnes of in-place hydrocarbon reserves in the country. In

fact, six out of seven producing basins in India have been discovered by ONGC. ONGC produces more than

1.27 million Barrels of Oil Equivalent (BOE) per day. It also contributes over three million tonnes per

annum of Value-Added-Products including LPG, C2 - C3, Naphtha, MS, HSD, Aviation Fuel, SKO etc.

Analysis & Discussion

3.1 OPERATIONAL

ONGC Ltd. has a track record in market in the field of Exploration & Production of Oil & Natural Gas.

Here, we will summarize a study on Production, Financials & Marketing Strategies of ONGC.

A.2. Global Recognition:-

The ONGC moved up 16 positions to be ranked 155th in the 2013 Forbes Global 2000 list of

world's biggest companies and is ranked 23rd among global oil and gas companies based on sales, profits,

assets and market value.

It is my privilege to bring to your kind notice that in “2012 EU Industrial R&D Scoreboard'' listed ONGC at

the 36th position in the list of oil and gas companies based on Research and Development (R&D)

expenditure. You will be pleased to know that ONGC is the only company in this list from India. As per the

Platts 2012 rankings, your Company is ranked as the 31 largest listed E&P Company in the world.

As a fitting acknowledgment of your Company's motto to ''Grow GREEN'' and a testament of its green

credentials, ONGC has been ranked at 386 by the Newsweek Green Ranking 2012 and 15th among the

energy companies, above global energy majors like Chevron, Luk oil, ConocoPhillips, Gazprom, Sinopec,

Exxon Mobil and Petro China. Top rankers in the list are mostly the companies from retail, IT or Banking

sectors which have minimal carbon footprints due to the inherent nature of their businesses.

3.2 FINANCIAL

Despite volatile markets and sharing of highest-ever under-recoveries of Rs. 494,207 million during

the year, your Company has earned a Profit after Tax (PAT) of Rs. 209,257 million (Rs. 251,229 million in

2011-12), down 16.70 per cent. During the year under review, your Company registered Gross revenue of

Rs. 833,090 million (Rs. 768,871 million in 2011-12), up 8.35 per cent.

B.1. Highlights:-

- Gross Revenue: Rs.833, 090 million

- Profit After Tax (PAT) : Rs.209,257 million

- Contribution to Exchequer: Rs.408,806 million

- Return on Capital Employed: 38.27%

- Debt-Equity Ratio: 0.00

- Earnings per Share (Rs.): 24.46

- Book Value per Share (Rs.): 144

(Rs. in millions)

Particulars 2012-13 2011-12

Revenue from operations 833,090 768,871

Other Income 54,367 44,529

Revenues 887,457 813,400

Profit before Interest Depreciation & Tax (PBIDT) 389,455 410,327

Profit before Tax (PBT) 305,443 366,425

Profit after Tax (PAT) 209,257 251,229

APPROPRIATION

Interim Dividend 76,999 66,305

Proposed Final Dividend 4,278 17,111

Tax on Dividend 13,012 13,286

Transfer to General Reserve 114,968 154,527

TOTAL 209,257 251,229

(Previous year figures have been regrouped wherever necessary.)

Reduction in FY 12 -13 profit as compared to FY 11-12 is primarily due to increase in share of under

recoveries (Rs. 49,550 Million), additional Cess (Rs. 42,140 Million) and exceptional income accounted for

in FY 11-12 on account of Royalty adjustment for JV Block with M/s Cairn in Rajasthan, partly offset by

increase in gross revenue. It would also be pertinent to mention that the stand-alone PAT of ONGC for

2012-13 contribute more than 86% of the Group's PAT whereas ONGC (stand alone) accounts for just

50.2% of the Group's revenues. However, if the present trend of under-recoveries and Cess burden on

ONGC continues, the profitability and surplus generating capacity of the Company would be affected

adversely; thereby may have impact on future growth of the group.

B.2. Dividend:-

Your Company paid interim dividend of Rs. 9.00 per share (180 per cent) in two phases (Rs. 5.00

and Rs. 4.00). The Board of Directors have recommended a final dividend of Rs. 0.50 per share (10 per cent)

making the aggregate dividend at Rs. 9.50 per share (190 per cent) as compared to Rs. 9.75 per share (195

percent) paid in 2011-12. The total dividend will absorb Rs. 81,277 million, besides Rs. 13,012 million as

tax on

dividend and works out to 45.06 percent of PAT against 38.49 percent in 2011-12

B.3. Management Discussion and Analysis Report

As per the terms of Clause 49(l V) (F) of the Listing Agreement with the Stock Exchanges, a Management

Discussion and Analysis Report (MDAR) has been included and forms part of the Annual Report of the

Company.

Water Portion of Guneshli Fields in the Azerbaijan sector of the Caspian Sea (ACG) and 2.36% interest in

well is currently under testing with encouraging results.

iv. The development of Lan-Do field in Block 06.1, Vietnam, where OVL has 45 per cent PI, has been

completed and the field was put to production on October 7,2012. The completion of Lan-Do field enhanced

the production capacity of the Block 06.1 by 0.20 BCM.

v. OVL has relinquished/ surrendered its interest from three non-operated exploration blocks namely N-25

to 29 & N-36 in Cuba; BM-S-74and BM-BAR-1, both in Brazil due to unsuccessful exploratory wells.
