PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT

INDIA - SECOND BOMBAY HIGH OFFSHORE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

(LOAN 1925-IN)

PREFACE

This report presents the results of a performance audit of a Bankloan to finance part of the cost of the development of the Bombay High oilfield. The loan was made to the Government and onlent to the Oil and NaturalGas Commission (ONGC), a Government-owned entity. The loan, in the amount ofUS $400 million, was approved on December 8, 1980, and fully disbursed inApril 1984, about 12 months behind schedule, but with 92X of the loan amountbeing disbursed within the scheduled time. The proceeds of the loan financedthe foreign exchange costs of aeven well platforms, one offshore productioncomplex, two production platforms (only the jackets and drilling decks), andpipelines and flowlines. The project, with some modifications in scope, wascompleted with a delay of approximately one year (mostly for valid reasons),but with a significant saving in capital costs. The target production levelof 12 million tons p.a. was reached in March 1982, slightly ahead of schedule.

This Project Completion Report was prepared by the Energy Department,and was based on information obtained during project tupervision and from theAppraisal, President's and Svtervision reports, as well as other documents inthe project files. The Borrower submitted a completion report containing itsviews on the project implementation and supplied additional data for the PCR.

In accordance with the revised procedures for project performanceaudit reporting, this Project Completion Report was read by the OperationsEvaluation Department (OED), but the project was not audited by OED staff.

Following standard procedures, OED sent copies of the draft reportto the Borrower and the Executing Agency. Comments received from theBorrower have been reproduced as Attachment A to the report.

PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT

INDIA - SECOND BOMBAY HIGH OFFSHORE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

(LOAN 1925-IN)

HIGHLIGHTS

1. The loan under review in the amount of US $400 million was to financepart of the cost of Phase IV and the advance action on Phase V of thedevelopment of the offshore Bombay High oil field. The Bank had approved anearlier loan of US $150 million in June 1977 towards the Phase III developmentof the same field (Loan 1473-IN) which was completed in April 1983 (PCR4139). The Oil and Natural Gas Commission (ONGC), a Government-owned entity,was the beneficiary and implementing agency for the previous as well as thecurrent loan under review.

2. The main objective of Phases IV and V (Advance Action) was to reach aproduction rate of 240,000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) by mid-1982 throughprimary development of the southern and central areas of the Bombay Highfield, and involved development drilling, construction of offshore platformsand production facilities, laying of subsea pipelines and flowlines andexpansion of onshore terminal facilities (PCR paras. 2.02 and 3.03-3.04).Other important objectives were the provision of technical assistance to ONGCto help ensure efficient project implementation and improvement in itstechnical capabilities in project management, the timely introduction ofreservoir pressure maintenance through water injection to maximize theultimate oil recovery, the strengthening of the financial position of ONGCthrough adequate prices for its oil and gas production as well as throughprudent financial practices, and finally, to increase ONGC's use of theinternational financial markets to raise funds for the financing of its largeinvestment program and thereby decrease ONGC's dependence on Government equityand loan contributions (PCR para. 2.03).

3. The project was successfully implemented and the objectives met.ONGC achieved slightly ahead of schedule its main target which was to reacL. aproduction rate of 240,000 BOPD by mid-1982 (PCR paras. 3.02 and 3.12).However implementation delays ranging from four months to one year wereexperienced in the construction of offshore production facilities, onshoreterminal facilities and well drilling due to changes in project scope,problems in the project management of a foreign contractor, drillingdifficulties and shortage of offshore drilling units (PCR paras. 3.05-3.11).Many of the causes of the delay were beyond ONGC's control, while the rathertight schedule and the difficulties inherent in planning constructionactivities around an 8-month window between monsoons should be appreciated.Despite these difficulties, the project was completed with a saving of US$65.3 million in capital costs mainly due to better project management andhigher use of local resources (PCR paras. 3.13-3.17).

4. The speed with which the project was conceived and implemented had asignificant effect on the Indian economy at a critical time immediatelyfollowing the oil price "shock" of 1979. The oil production target of 240,000

BD which was reached in March 1982, (of which 100,000 BD was contributed bythe Bombay High 1T Project), represented foreign exchange savings of about $3billion annually; and although OPEC prices have fallen 201 since 1982, thecurrent oil production of 400,000 BD from Bombay High is worth $4.2 billionper year in foreign exchange savings (PCR para. 5.03). In addition, theproject accelerated ONGC's move away from reliance on the government forexternal financing. Under the previous Bombay High I project, ONGC borrowedfor the first time from foreign commercial Banks - raising about US $50million to help finance the phase III development of Bombay High. During theimplementation of the project under review (Bombay High II) foreign borrowingsincreased about 20 times. Specifically, during the period 1981-1984 ONGCborrowed on its own account $965 million from a variety of sources andnegotiated $100 million of suppliers credit in addition to the loans from theBank (PCR para. S.04). Institutional objectives were also essentiallyachieved. As a result of a higher-than-expected petroleum production coupledwith higher prices for oil, gas and LPG, autho-ized by the Government, ONGC'sfinancial performance and prospects improved dramatically (PCR paras. 7.01-7.03). ONGC made substantial progress in the areas of organization andproject management throughout project implementation (PCR paras. 6.04-6.11).

S. Due to both the higher productivity of wells drilled under theproject and higher petroleum prices, the recalculated financial rate of returnof the project is significantly higher than the original estimate. Inaddition, the project facilitated the transfer of technology with respect tosophisticated oil and gas installations, including the eata^^;shment ofdomestic capability in the construction and installation of offshoreproduction facilities, ax.%' in reservoir development and management. From thesectoral perspective, the project furthered the Bank's policy dialogue withthe Government on energy, especially, the development and utilization ofoffshore gas reserves.

6. In analyzing the project experience, the PCR stresses the expediencyof making recourse to "turnkey contracts" for project components which are onthe critical path, provided the project entity is assisted by an experiencedengineering group (PCR para. 9.04), and the importance of planning andproviding for reservoir pressure maintenance during primary development (PCRpara. 9.03). The report also highlights the importance of-the rapid andflexible response of the Bank in supporting the development of the Bombay Highoil field which enabled the Government and ONCC to quickly bring this majorresource to the production stage. Without the oil production from BombayHigh, the oil import bill would have severely affected the Indian economy.

PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT

INDIA - SECOND BOMBAY HIGH OFFSHORE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

(LOAN 1925-IN)

I. INTRODUCTION

1.01 On December 8, 1980, the Executive Directors approved a US $ 400million loan to India, to finance part of the cost of Phase rv and advanceaction on Phase V of the development of the Bombay High field. The Bank hadgiven an earlier loan of US $ 150 million for the third phase of the field'sdevelopment (Loan No. 1473-IN).

1.02 The Bombay High field, which is the largest oil field in India, wasdiscovered in 1974. It is located some 160 km west-northwest of Bombay in theIndian Ocean at an average water depth of 80 m. Oil production from the fieldztarted in May 1976, and the field was developed in successive stages. At thecompletion of the Phase III program in March 1981, tLe field had reached aproduction potential of 140,000 BOPD. The target of the Phases IV and V(advance action) was to reach a production capacity of 240,000 BOPD by mid-1982 by developing the hitherto mndeveloped central and southern sections ofthe field. This target was reached at the end of March 1982, slightly aheadof schedule.

1.03 The development of the Bombay High field is still continuing and thePhase V program is under implementation. The plan to reach a sustainableproduction target of 340,000 BOPD by the mid-e4ghties has been accomplished,and the water injection program designed to increase the field's recoverablereserves is under implementation. As a result the Bombay High field willremain the most important domestic source of petroleum accounting for about551 of the country' oil production during the next ten years.

1.04 The Bank's involvement in India's petroleum sub-sector has been acontinuous one. Beside the two Bombay High offshore development loans (LoansNos. 1473-IN and 1925-IN), the Bank has approved three more loans involvingthe Oil and Natural Gas Commission (ONGC): one for exploration (Loan No.2205-IN approved on October 19, 1982), one for offshore gas development (LoanNo. 2241-IN approved on February 24, 1983) and one for onshore development(secondary recovery and development of heavy oil) including some explorationof deep horizons (Loan No. 2403-IN approved on March 29, 1984).

1.05 This report is based on the completion report prepared by ONGC andthe findings of a mission which visited India in September 1984.

II. PROJECT PREPARATION AND APPRAISAL

2.01 In March 1980 the Government of India requested the Bank's financialassistance for further development of the Bombay High field. In June 1980, aBank petroleum mission visited India for the appraisal of the projectconsisting of the Phase IV and the advance action on Phase V of ONGC's BombayHigh development plan. This was followed by a post-appraisal mission inSeptember 1980.

2.02 The preparation of the project was based on the reservoir andconceptual field development studies prepared by ONGC's consultants and thecost and implementation results of the Phase III development plan. The mainobjectives of the project were to complete the primary development of thesouthern and central areas of the Bombay High field to achieve a plateau pro-duction potential of 240,000 BOPD by mid-1982. The project was defined toiiLclude the following principal components:

(a) a development drilling program comprising the drilling andcompletion of sixty four development wells;

(b) construction of offshore production faciliLies including fifteenwell platforms, one 180,000-BOPD capacity processing platform,one living quarters platform to accommodate 124 workers andapproximately 133 km of subsea flow lines varying in diameterfrom 8" to 20";

(c) expansion of shore facilities by the addition of 60,000 m3 oftankage and 90,000-BOPD of crude stabilization facilitiesincluding utilities;

(d) extension of tho existing telemetry and telecontrol system tocover the whole of the Bombay High field; and

(e) engineering and technical services for the preparation ofdetailed designs, the supervision of construction and assistanceto ONGC in project management.

2.03 As the consultants' reservoir study indicated that the ultimaterecovery of oil from the Bombay High field could be increased by 8% and 151,in 20 and 30 years, respectively, by water injection, the Bank sought to beassured that ONCC would introduce an adequate and timely water injectirnprogram in accordance with the results of reservoir studies. Furthermore theanalysis o_ ONCC's financial prospects indicated that its financialperformance would deteriorate after 1983 because the relatively low price itreceived for its oil (US $7.80/Bbl equivalent) did not provide sufficientprofits to undertake a normal, much less accelerated, development andexploration program envisaged for the remainder of the 1980's. As a result,it was requested by the Bank and agreed by GOI that crude oil and gas pricesreceived by ONGC would be revised from time to time in a way to permit ONGC tomeet its operating expensea and earn a rate of return on its invested capitalsufficient to meet its debt-service requirements, maintain adequate workingcapital, and finance a substantial portion of its proposed investment program.

III. IMPLEMENTATION

a. Background

3.01 ONGC was responsible for the implementation of the Project throughits Bombay Offshore Project (BOP) organization with the assistance ofinternational and local consultants and contractors. Because of the tightimplementation schedule, ONCC has awarded turnkey contracts for offshoreproduction facilities on the basis of basic designs prepared by itsengineering consultant. Development wells have been drilled using both ONGC'sand contract drilling rigs. The expansion of the shore facilities has beenentrusted to local contractors with local consultants acting as projectmanagers. The exte;usion of the telemetry and telecontrol system has been doneon a force account basis under the supervision of ONCC's TITAN project team.

3.02 Despite the very tight implementation schedule, the offshoreconstruction and installation procieded relatively smoothly and essentially onschedule. The average delay experierced in platform construction andinstallation compared to th-e original implementation schedule was about 42days. Considering the logistic problems involved and the difficulty inplanning construction activities around an annual eight-month "window" betweenmonsoons, this is a commerdable achievement. However, there were major delaysin well drilling and shore facilities expansion (paras. 3.07, 3.11).Nevertheless, ONGC was able to achieve its target production of 12 milliontons of oil per annum from the Bombay High field in March 1982, slightly aheadof schedule.

b. Changes in Project Scope

3.03 With the exception of the addition of two production platforms to thePhase V portion (Advance Action), the scope of the Bank project remainedunchanged (para. 3.04). In February 1981, ONGC submitted to GOI a proposal toaccelerate the development of Bombay High and adjacent oil fields to reach aproduction level of 19 million tons per annum by 1984/85, against the Five-year Plan objective of 13.2 million tons in that same year. As a result of adetailed engineering and system analysis cerried out _y its engineeringconsultant, it also prop sed to expand the onshore production facilities inUran by adding 240,000 m of oil st1rage tanks, two trains of crudestabilizes, one new LPC plant and 4 captive power plant, instead of only60,000 m of oil storage and one crude stabilizer originally planned. ONGCdiscussed these changes with the BaJk in March 1981. The Bank did not objectto the proposed additions. Howevert, they were not incorporated into the Bankproject since (i) the major portion of the extra units to be added wererequired to accommodate the expected production from other fields in theBombay offshore area; and (ii) the additional units were part of ONCC'scontinuing developmen program in offshore Bombay and, as such, were not anintegral part of the .'hase IV and Phase V (Advance Action) development of theBombay High field covered by the Bank project.

3.04 In March 1983, the Government requestea that the scope of the Bankproject be enlarged by the addition of two 100,000-BOPD production platforms(SHD and NQD) to the Phase V portion (Advance Action) of the development ofBombay High. As these two platforms were needed urgently to efficientlyhandle the higher-than-expected oil and gas production from the field, theBank agreed to include the SHD and NQD platforms in the Bank project and theLoan Agreement was amended accordingly in June 1983.

c. Implementation Delays

3.05 With the exception of slight damage suffered by the jacket of the SDplatform which was quickly repaired, the construction and installation of theoffshore production facilities proceeded smoothly and essentially on schedule(para. 3.02). However there were important delays in well drilling, hook-up,testing and commissioning of the Bombay High South Process Complex (BHS) andthe expansion of shore facilities. Also, a major blow out was experienced indrilling one of the project wells (SJ-5), somewhat tarnishing the hithertoexceptional safety record of the Bombay High development program (paras. 3.09-3.10).

3.06 The BHS platform complex was fabricated and installed on schedule onMarch 31, 1982. However, the hook-up, testing and commissioning activitiescould not be completed until October 6, 1982, causing a delay of about fourmonths compared to the appraisal schedule. The major reason for the delay wasless-than-optimum planning by the lead contractor, which is evidenced by thedifficulties encountered in accommoeating the 340 technicians working on hook-up and commissioning in offshore Bombay during the monsoon season. The BuScomplex, consisting of one large process platform, one living quartersplatform and one flare tripod, is a major construction work requiring theinputs 3f suveral contractors and the procurement of materials and equipmentfrom different countries. Given the difficulties of working offshore duringthe monsoon season and the very 8jght implementation schedule (17 months fromcontract award to commissioning)- , the four-month delay in commissioning theBHS complex is not excessive.

3.07 The drilling of the development wells on five well platforms has beencompleted essentially on schedule. However, the completion of drillingactivities on the remaining ten well platforms have been delayed from 90 to330 days compared to the appraisal schedule. The reasons for the delays areas follows: (i) during implementation ONGC has followed a deliberate policyof delaying the drilling of those wells which could not be put on productionimmediately upon completion because of lack of connection to the processplatforms, vhile at the time of appraisal it was assumed that a well platformwould be drilled immediately after installation; (ii) in some cases, thedrilling rigs working on project wells had to be diverted to working overother Bombay High wells before completing all the wells on the originalplatform; this caused delays in drilling and completing all the wells on agiven platform; and (iii) in keeping up with its accelerated developmentprogram (para. 3.03), ONGC vastly expanded its offshore drilling activitiesstarting in late 1981 and experienced rig availability problems because oflate delivery of one of its offshore drilling units (Sagar Pragati) and thedamage sustained by another ONGC drilling unit in the SJ platform blow-out(paras. 3.09-3.10).

3.08 It should be emphasized, however, that the delays in completingdrilling activities on individual well platforms did not materially affect thebenefits expected from the project, since ONGC reached its production targeton schedule by making maximum use of available resources and judiciously re-ordering its drilling schedule. Under comparable conditions any other prudentoperator would probably act similarly.

3.09 On the other hand the blow-out which occurred on the SJ-5 well was amajor incident. While being deepened to explore the productive potential ofthe basal sands which lit below the main producing zones of the Bombay Highfield, the well blew out in the night of July 30, 1982. Despite immediateintervention by ONGC staff, the well could not be brought under control; thedrilling crew of 74 was evacuated and immediate action was taken by ONC tocontrol and limit the damage, including the mobilization of the world'sforemost blow-out control and firo ighting experts. In the morning of

1/ This tight schedule was necessary in order to complete the BHScomplex before the onset of the 1982 monsoon.

August 2, 1982, the well caught fire; however the fire died out by itself inthree days. The team of experts was successful in capping the well andbringing it under complete control by September 30, 1982. As a result of theblow-out and ensuing fire, ONGC's drilling unit Sagar Vikas suffered extensivedamage, the well No. SJ-5 had to be re-drilled, and the damaged main deck andhelideck of the platform had to be removed and replaced. As the well blew outmainly gas, no recognizable environmental damage resulted. Total losses wereassessed at US $58.6 million, which, being fully covered by ONGC's insurancepolicies, have since been collected by the operator.

3.10 The inquiry conducted by the Indian authorities did not uncover grossneglect or lack of diligence on the part of ONCC or its staff. The blow-outwas attributed to an operational error of the drilling crew. In retrospectall blow-outs are preventable; nonetheless they keep occurring. Despite allthe advances in pressure prediction and drilling techniques and blow-outprevention equipment, even the most successful operators and drillingcontractors are not immune to blow-outs.

3.11 Because of the major changes in project scope (para. 3.03) the shorefacilities had to be re-engineered to optimize the design and operation of theentire complex. As a result, construction activities lastud until May 1985.Although there is an apparent delay of 35 months compared to the appraisalestilmate, this should not be taken at face value, since the expansion programpresently under implementationlts radically different from the program onwhich the appraisal was based.

d. Achievements of Objectives

3.12 ONGC achieved its target of increasing crude oil production fromBombay High to 240,000 BOPD in March 1982 slightly ahead of schedule. Theprimary development of the central and southern portions of the Bombay Highfield can be considered as completed, and the oil production is currentlyrunning at 400,000 BOPD which is about 73% higher than the appraisalestimate. Currently, the well platforms included in the Bank project aresupplying 180,000 BOPD and 4.5 million m3/day of gas, which are approximately76% and 180X, respectively, higher than the appraisal estimate. (However, dueto insufficient compressor capacity at present, only 60% of the produced gasis actually marketed, the rest being flared in the field. Additional com-pressor capacity is being installed which should eliminate any significantflaring by the end of 1986).

e. Project Costs

3.13 The project was completed with a cost underrun of US$ 65.3 millionequivalent (7.9X) compared to the appraisal estimate. Actual and estimatedcosts are compared in Annex 1. Annex 2 compares the total actual costs ofmajor project components with their estimated costs plus the proratedcontingencies.

1/ The crude stabilization unit and the tanks included in the originalproject scope were completed in May 1983, with a delay ofapproximately one year.

3.14 The cost comparison in Annex 2 shows significant variances in almostall items. With the exception of well drilling, expansion of Uran facilitiesand reservoir consultancy, the actual costs of all items were below those es-timated at the time of appraisal, including assigned physical and price con-tingencies. The reasons for variances are explained in the following para-graphs.

3.15 Well drilling costs were 66.8X higher due to (i) the general increasein ONCC's operating costs; (ii) the appreciation of the US $ on which pricesof oil field services are based from Rs 8.4 used for appraisal to Rs 10.8 inmid-1983; (iii) the costly blow-out in well No. SJ-5 (paras. 3.09-3.10); and(iv) ONGC's frequent shifting of offshore drilling units from one platform toanother in order to optimize the build-up of oil production (paras. 3.07-3.08). This practice has resulted in extra mobilization and demobilizationcosts (e.g. the wells on the SF platform were drilled in three successivephases using three different offshore drilling units at an average cost of Rs53.9 million per well, while the average cost of a well on the SS platformdrilled in one rig move was Rs 19.0 million).

3.16 The total cost of offshore production facilities (well platforms, BHSComplex and subsea flowlines and pipelines) was 14.1Z lower due to the factthat, in contrast to the experience of the First Bombay High Offshore Project(Loan No. 1473-IN), there were only few and moderate change orders inpractically all contracts (e.g., on the basis of the first Bombay Highproject, the estimated cost of the BHS Complex was increased by 15% of thequoted prices to account for possible change orders; the actual cost of thechange orders was only 72).

3.17 The expansion of the Uran facilities cost 4X more than estimated.The cost of the telemetry and telecontrol was 24.61 lower due to increased useof local resources and lower-than-expected price inflation as a result of theslow-down in investments by the international petroleum industry. The cost ofengineering, technical services and project supervision, which was estimatedat 10% of the project base cost, was 82.12 lower due to ONGC's heavy relianceon local engineering consultants whose charges are substantially less thanthose of foreign consultants and to increased involvement of the ONCC staff inthe engineering and technical supervision of projects. On the other hand,reservoir consultancy cost 21.21 higher than estimated because ONCC sub-sequently had to pay local taxes imposed on the foreign consultant which wasnot the case at project appraisal. The amount allocated to customs duties andimport taxes was not used as a result of the Government's later decision ofexempting the local platform manufacturer from import duties and taxes. Alsothe proportion of local currency costs (211) was substantially higher than theappraisal estimate (12.3X) mostly due to the fact that the cost of the locallymanufactured well platforms was much higher than estimated at appraisal,although still less than the cost of imported platforms.

f. Disbursements

3.18 At the time of appraisal, the Bank loan was to finance the foreignexchange cost of six well platforms, BHS Complex and the related underseapipelines and flowlines. However, as of March, 1982, about US $ 42.0 millionof the Bank loan remained uncommitted because (i) change orders had been fewand moderate (para. 3.16); and (ii) ONGC had used US $ 15.0 million of US

Eximbank financing for the BHS turbine-generator packages which wereoriginally slated for Bank financing within the overall cost of the BHSComplex. At the request of the GOI, the Bank agreed, in June 1983, to financeone more well platform (SF) already in the original project scope as well asthe jackets and drilling decks of two production platforms (SHD and NQD) whichhad been added to the scope of the project (para. 3.04).

3.19 The table below compares the actual Bank disbursements with theappraisal forecast:

Cumulative Loan Disbursements(US $ million)

As the above table indicates the rate of disbursements sas very much slowerduring the first year but improved substantially and 922 of the loan was dis-bursed by the original closing date. The major reasons for slow disbursementare: (i) delays in finalizing contracts for the BHS Complex and the SQ, SS,ST well platform package by nine and seven months, respectively; (ii) delaysin project implementation; and (iii) late amendment of the Loan Agreementenabling the Bank to disburse against the costs of the SP, SHD and NQDplatforms (para. 3.18).

g. Performance of Consultants

3.20 ONGC employed two foreign consultants and a local engineering firmbacked up by three foreign and one local consultant to assist in carrying outthe project. In the view of ONGC, the performance of the consultants waswholly satisfactory, and this is also the conclusion of the Bank staff whohave supervised the project.

h. Performance of Contractors

3.21 With the possible exception of the BHS Complex, all contracts wereexecuted satisfactorily without undue problems. As explained in para. 3.06above, the testing and commissioning of the critical BHS platform complex wasunduly delayed due to difficulties experienced by the lead contractor inplanning and coordinating subcontractors. Nevertheless, both ONGC and thelead contractor cooperated in good faith to overcome the difficulties and thework was completed with minimum possible delay.

IV. OPERATING PERFORMANCE

4.01 All of the project facilities are operating satisfactorily and thehousekeeping on them and the care and maintenance of the equipment are good toexcellent. Operators are well trained, knowledgeable and alert and appear tobe committed to their duties. ONGC is following the established procedures ofthe petroleum industry in monitoring the performance of the reservoir. Theproduction rates, water cuts, gas/oil ratios and wellhead and bottom-holepressures are being periodically measured, and reservoir studies are updatedon a yearly basis.

4.02 Great emphasis is placed on safety, and the American PetroleumInstitute (API) recommended practices are being followed to ensure the safetyof personnel and facilities. Emergency equipment are in working order andadequate fire fighting equipment are maintained on multipurpose supportvessels assigned to the Bombay High area. A safety engineer and hisassistants administer and carry out regular safety drills.

4.03 To prevent pollution, all installations are designed for dischargeswithin international regulations (API or EPA). Adequate stocks of chemicaldispersants, oil spill collectors and dispersant spraying equipment are beingkept. ONGC has trained a team of officers in charge of spill prevention andcontrol and has developed a reporting and action system to tackle oilspills. It is also closely cooperating with the Indian Coast Guard, PortAuthorities, Shipping and Fisheries and National Institute of Oceanography onenvironmental protection.

4.04 The initial rates of production of wells drilled under the projectaveraged approximately 3,000 BOPD, or 50Z higher than the appraisalestimate. However, the increase of the producing gas/oil ratios and the localreservoir pressure drops were faster than originally predicted due to theheterogeneous character of the Bombay High reservoir. To cope with theproblem, ONGC awarded turnkey contracts for the construction and installationof a central water injection platform and four injection well platforms forthe northern section of Bombay High in June 1982. These facilities were putin service in May 1984. In March 1983, the water injection studies for thecentral and southern portions of Bombay High were completed and contracts wereawarded for the fabrication and installation of one water injection platformand five injection well platforms in March 1983. These are expected to beoperational in late 1985.

V. ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE

5.01 Probably no other Bank financed project has had such a significanteffect on India's economy as the Second Bombay High Project. OPEC prices wentup in late 1979 for the second time in the seventies. In current dollars theprevailing average price in 1980 rose to $30.5/barrel versus $18.6 in 1979.This increase brought an urgency to the further development of the Bombay Highfield. The speed with which the project was conceived and executed inresponse to this challenge is impressive as are the economic results. Asmentioned earlier (para. 3.08) the delays in completing drilling activities onindividual well platforms did not materinlly affect the benefits expected fromthe project, since ONGC reached its production target on schedule. Appraisaland actual/estimated production results can be compared as follows:

5.02 Because of the substantial increase in the domestic price of crudeoil received by ONGC starting in 1981 and the fact that the Bombay High wellsare producing much more oil and gas than was expected at the time of appraisalthe financial internal rate of return is up from slightly more than 17X atappraisal to 38% at present (Annex 4).

5.03 In economic terms when Bombay High oil production reached 240,000 BDin March 1982, (100,000 BD from this project), the annual output representedforeign exchange savings of about US $3 billion annually; and although OPECprices have fallen about 20% since then, the current production of 400,000 BDrepresents about US $4.2 billion per year of foreign exchange savings.

VI. INSTITUTIONAL PERFORMANCE

a. Background

6.01 The Oil and Natural Gas Commission (ONGC) is a Government-ownedstatutory body created in 1959 by an Act of Parliament to "plan, promote andimplement the development of petroleum resources and the production and saleof petroleum products produced by it." ONGC is by far the major producer ofpetroleum in India, and carries exploration activities on a large scale allover the country; however, it is not involved in downstream activities, suchas refining and marketing.

6.02 Until 1973, virtually all of ONGC's activities were concentratedonshore, where it was producing oil and gas in Assam and Gujarat. Followingthe discovery of oil in Bombay High, the Bombay Offshore Project (BOP) was setup in Bombay to explore for and develop offshore petroleum resources. In thecourse of these activities, ONGC has developed sufficient expertise inoffshore exploration and development through judicious use of consultants,effective recruitment and training practices and actual involvement in allfacets of offshore petroleum technology. At the time of appraisal, ONGC wasjudged to be a technically and administratively competent organization. Itsmanagement information system and project management practices were found tobe evolving in the right direction. Consequently, no specific institutionbuilding measures were incorporated into the project.

b. Organization and Management

6.03 The Commission currently consists of a Chairman, six full-timemembers (Finance, Technical Services, Personnel, Exploration, Operations andDrilling) and two part-lime members representing the Ministry of Finance andthe Ministry of Energy.' BOP is managed by the Member Operations. Theadministrative and financial functions (planning, procurement and stores,accounting, personnel, etc.) are centralized in the corporate headquarters atDehra Dun, along with the main research and development activities.Operational staff are divided among three regional offices (Central, Westernand Eastern Regions) and the Bombay Offshore Project.

6.04 The Commission acts very much as a board of directors and isresponsible for setting ONGC's policies. While important policy decisions aretaken at headquarters and the commission members play an active part inrunning affairs falling in their areas of responsibility, operationaldivisions have operational responsibility and the authority to commit fundswithin their approved budgets.

6.05 During the implementation of the Project, ONGC continued to improveits organizational structure. With ONGC's growth expected to continue intothe 1990's, the issue of organizational efficiency has become a seriousconcern to ONGC and the government as well as the Bank. A major restructuring

1/ As the time of appraisal the Commission had four full-time members(Finance, Materials, Offshore and Onshore) and three part-timemembers representing the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry ofPetroleum, Chemicals and Fertilizers and the Planning Commission.

of ONGC was implemented in 1984 based on the business group or functionalapproach in which activities would be grouped into similar functions orprofit/cost centers rather than by geographical location. In addition therehas been a concentration of ONGC resources and efforts in the basic explo-ration and production activities with a reduction in ONGC's own participationsin areas such as petroleum transportation, drilling and other technicalsupport services which can be provided by contractors. The Bank has supportedthis streamlining of ONGC's organization and operations, and continues toexchange ideas with ONGC on specific operational aspects of its organizationalframework.

c. Project Management

6.06 ONCC follows the practice of appointing project managers for eachmajor project and, in the case of BOP, for each important constructionactivity, such as the BHS Complex. Project managers are charged with theresponsibility of monitoring the progress of their individual projects fromplanning to commissioning, and are responsible for both contractual andtechnical aspects.

6.07 Early in 1982, BOP introduced a tighter and more effective system ofproject monitoring and coordination consisting of (a) weekly, fortnightly andmonthly progress reports on each project, and (b) weekly coordination meetingschaired either by the Member Offshore or the General Manager, Engineering andProduction, to review outstanding problems. The decision making process atdifferent echelons and their authority over expenditures were also clearlydefined.

d. Management Information System

6.08 At the time of appraisal, ONGC's management information systemconsisting of monthly reports covering all its activities and providing thesenior management with essential inputs was judged to be satisfactory ingeneral. The only shortcoming identified at the time was the lack of up-to-date financial data. In early-1981 this shortcoming was remedied with thecomputerization of the accounting system. The periodic project progressreports (para. 6.07) and detailed reports prepared on construction, safety,etc. also add to the effectiveness of ONCC's management information system.

e. Staffing and Training

6.09 Between 1980 and 1983 ONGC's staff increased in number from 26,000 to33,000 (26.9%). Of this increase BOP's share was 2,743 or 39.2% of the totalincrease, reflecting the very rapid expansion of ONGC's offshore activities.If the daily production is to be taken as a rough indice of the efficiency ofstaffing, ONGC in 1983 was producing 11.1 BOPD/staff, compared to 7.3BOPD/staff in 1980. This is a satisfactory development especially since muchof the increase was in the number of the technical/managerial and supervisorystaff which during the same period grew by 5,632 (80.5% of the totalincrease). It is, therefore, expected that ONCC will in the near future beable to alleviate the shortage of middle-level managers with sufficientexperience and reduce the overload of its senior staff which is stillconsiderable.

6.10 ONGC continued its training efforts throughout projectimplementation. In this respect, offshore operations were given greateremphasis in view of ONCC's rapidly expanding offshore activities. Personnelwere given training by various local institutions (management, finance,engineering and geology) and were also sent abroad (oil companies,laboratories and contractors' facilities) for specialized training. Severalcourses and seminars were also given in-house to enhance the administrativeand managerial capabilities of the staff.

f. Conclusion

6.11 Overall, ONGC made substantial progress in the areas of organizationand management and institutional strength throughout project implementation.Nevertheless, in view of the continuously expanding scope of its offshoreactivities and the rapid changes taking place in the international petroleumindustry, it will have to continue its institution-building efforts withoutrelapse.

VII. FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

a. Operating Results

7.01 A comparison of ONGC's financial results with the appraisal forecastappears in Annex 3 of this report. Over the 1980-1985 period accumulatedprofits have reached Rs28.4 billion versus Rs5.4 billion forecast in theAppraisal Report. Total revenues in the period was on the order of Rsl2lbillion against Rs48 billion in the Appraisal Report reflecting theconsiderable increases in both volumes and prices of hydrocarbons over theappraisal forecasts.

c. Financial Covenants

7.03 As the main external parameters affecting ONGC's financialperformance are the prices it receives for oil and gas, the most importantfinancial covenant under the loan required ONGC to carry out on a periodicbasis pricing studies with a view to meeting a 15% discounted cash flow (DCF)rate of return target for the project and any subsequent major development in-vestment . At appraisal, the internal rate of return was assessed at 17%,while the latest es,imate yields 38%. The higher return is due to thesignificantly higher production of hydrocarbons now expected from the project,(oil up 32%, gas 233% and LPG 145%) para. 5.02, coupled with higher producerprices for oil and gas. (Current prices are oil $15.0/Bbl equivalent and gas$87.75 MNM3 equivalent versus $7.80/Bbl and $74.58/MNM respectively atappraisal).

VII1. PERFORMANCE OF THE BANK

8.01 The Bank's involvement in the Indian petroleum sector started in 1977and since then, five loans have been made to ONGC totalling about US $1.2billion. The first two loans were for the development of the Bombay Highoilfield. The third loan was for exploration, the fourth for offshore gasdevelopment and the fifth was for improving the operations and production froman existing onshore oil province that is experiencing declining output as thereservoir are depleted. In all these operations, the Bank has emphasized somecommon as well as different objectives. The common thread has been thefinancial and institutional strengthening of ONGC, in terms of petroleumpricing, mobilization of external finance and technical assistance. However,there were also unique and important objectives under each operation. Underthe exploration project the Bank encouraged the Government to offerexploration acreage to foreign oil companies and to assist ONCC implement areasonable exporation strategy. Under the gas development project, the Banksought to accelerate the development and use of the substantial discovered gasresources, but which were unutilized, in order to substitute for liquidpetroleum products. Finally, under the onshore production improvementproject, the Bank sought to introduce improved and modern operating andproduction methods, as well as encourage the production of the discovered butunder-developed heavy oil resources, through technology transfer, technicaltraining and technical assistance. Thus, while ONGC was the beneficiary ofall the five Bank petroleum operations in India, the loans cannot beconsidered as "repeater" projects because they addressed different policy andoperational issues as well as involved completely different facets of ONGC'soperations.

8.02 Relations between the Bank and COI/ONGC have been good throughout theimplementation of the Project. As required, ONGC has sent quarterly progressreports and annual reports on financial performance and prospects and generalmanagerial matters. Because of the extensive use of contractors andconsultants which largely contributed to the smooth implementation of theProject and ONGC's competent performance in project management, the Bank'ssupervision effort has been minimal (8.6 staff-weeks/year during FY 1981-1983). However, as three more petroleum projects were also prepared duringthe same period, in addition to one project performance audit on anotherpetroleum project, the Bank's contact with ONGC and the project has beensubstantially more intensive than suggested by the figure given above. Under

- 15 -

an agreement with the OPEC Fund, the Bank staff have also supervised the US $30.0 million OPEC Fund Loan.

8.03 Possibly the most significant technical contribution of the Bank tookplace during project appraisal through the emphasis placed on pressuremaintenance in the Bombay High field. The project covenant on timely waterinjection (para. 2.03) and the Bank staff's constant reminders duringimplementation have undoubtedly contributed to ONGC's taking timely action onwater injection which proved to be critically urgent in view of recentreservoir performance (para. 4.04). ONGC has made very good use of thelessons learned from the First Bombay High Offshore Project, and hasunerringly continued implementing institution-building measures withoutoutside prodding.

8.04 ONGC and GOI have confirmed that complying with Bank requirements hasnot caused particular problems as ONGC's own procedures, in areas such asprocurement, are in many respects similar to those of the Bank. Covenantsagreed to during negotiations have been complied with.

TX. CONCLUSIONS

9.01 Overall the project was an unqualified success. It was completedwith minimum delay and essentially witbin budget. The production target wasreached on schedule and was exceeded by a substantial margin at project com-pletion. In general, the assumptions made at the time of appraisal regardingreserves, well productivities and costs proved to be on the conservativeside. On the other hand, the adverse effects of weather (i.e., monsoon) onthe construction and well drilling schedules turned out to be underestimated.

9.02 At the time of appraisal it was recognized that the major projectrisk was the possibility that the Bombay High Field may not live up toexpectations. Although the field's oil reserves proved to be about 36Z higherthan estimated at appraisal, the performance of the reservoir and theattainment of a final recovery of the order of 26% still remains to be seen.So far the production rate from the Bombay High field has been continuously onthe rise, and the future performance of the reservoir under stabilizedproduction levels is predicated solely on mathematical reservoir simulation.Given the heterogeneity of the reservoir, actual production performance datafor the next two to three years are needed to ascertain the effectiveness ofthe development strategy on which the project was based.

9.03 The observation regarding the necessity of reservoir pressuremaintenance in the Bombay High field proved to be correct. Currently ONGC isin the process of implementing the initial phase of a water injection scheme(para. 4.04). ONGC's future efforts will have to concentrate on improving thewater injection process in order to achieve maximum recovery under stabilizedproduction rates and minimum operating costs. ONGC will also have to startinvestigating the potential application of the more advanced enhanced oilrecovery processes in Bombay High, since these processes normally take a longtime from conception to actual implementation. The Bank which has accumulatedsubstantial experience in enhanced oil recovery projects could assist ONGC'sefforts in this area.

9.04 The project accelerated ONGC's move away from reliance on thegovernment for external financing. During PY1977-80 ONCC borrowed about $453million including $150 million from the Bank (Bombay High I), $50 million onthe Eurodollar market and $14 million from the OPEC fund (onlent to ONCC byGOI). However, slightly over one-half of the borrowings (US $239 millionequivalent) were either directly from the Government or from the Oil IndustryDevelopment Board, a Govcrnment agency. During FY 1981-84 when this Projectwas under implementation, ONCC, on their own account borrowed $965 millionfrom a variety of sources including $630 million from the Eurodollar market,$44 million from Singapore's Export Credit Investment Corporation, $19 millionfrom US EXIM, $78 million from Korea EXIM, $20 million from Bankers Trust, $69million in French Francs (BNP), $23 million equivalent in Deutsche Marks and$34 million in Yen. In addition, during the same period ONGC negotiatedsuppliers credits totalling about $100 million from Japan, Norway andFrance. ONGC's borrowing from the Government (and government agencies) duringthis period (FY1981-84) was only about US $197 million equivalent, consider-ably less than the amounts borrowed during FY1977-80. Thus, the Bank's ob-jective of diversifying ONGC's borrowing sources and decreasing its relianceon government financial support have been achieved. ONGC's reputation is nowestablished. Although private capital is still difficult to attract for highrisk exploration ventures, petroleum development projects, particularly off-shore, in India, are generally attractive to private as well as public finan-cing. Also, private borrowings have been easier to secure where a major por-tion of the project costs is covered by World Bank loans.

9.05 Finally, the experience of the First and Second Bombay High projectshave shown that entrusting the construction of project components which are onthe critical path to contractors on the basis of "turnkey contracts" includingdetailed engineering, procurement, installation and commissioning could pro-mote timely project implementation without unnecessarily increasing projectcosts. However, in order to receive the full benefits of such an arrangement,the project entity must be assisted by an experienced engineering group as wasthe case of ONGCC and there should be effective planning, coordination andmonitoring of the various activities.
