Cumulative crude oil production during April-November, 2016 was 7115.90 TMT which is 2.23% lower than target for the period and 7.63% lower than the production during corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:
Ø RJ-ON-90/1: Planned shutdown at Mangala Processing Terminal; High Water cut in wells of Bhagyam field & Natural Decline of Mangala wells.
Ø Natural Decline in Ravva &CB-OS/2.
Ø Panna-Mukta: PC platform shutdown due to riser integrity issue.
Ø Closure of 1 well in MA field in KG-DWN-98/3.
Ø CY-ONN-2002/2: Under Test Production.
Ø Underperformance of KG- OSN-2001/3.

2.1 Natural gas production by ONGC during November, 2016 was 1866.93 MMSCM which is 3.75% lower than the monthly target but 5.07% higher when compared with November, 2015. Cumulative natural gas production during April-November, 2016 was 14493.50 MMSCM which is 1.29% lower than the cumulative target but 0.28% higher than the production during the corresponding period of last year. Shortfall in production vis-à-vis target was mainly due to decline in reservoir pressure in Bassein field.
2.2 Natural gas production by OIL during November, 2016 was 244.91 MMSCM which is 0.68% higher than the monthly target but 4.20% lower than November, 2015. Cumulative natural gas production during April-November, 2016 was 1965.06 MMSCM which is 2.41% lower than the cumulative target but 5.99% higher than the production during the corresponding period of last year. Shortfall in production against target was mainly due to decline in production potential in a few high producing gas wells due to unexpected subsurface problems like water and sand ingress.

Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:
Ø Closure of 1 well in MA and 1 well in D1D3 field in KG-DWN-98/3.
Ø Panna-Mukta: PC platform shutdown due to riser integrity issue.
Ø RJ-ON-90/1: Planned shutdown at Mangala Processing Terminal.

Figure 3: Monthly Refinery Production
3.1 PSU Refineries’ production during November, 2016 was 11446.99 TMT which is 2.26% lower than the target for the month but 8.53% higher than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year. Cumulative production during April-November, 2016 was 90658.32 TMT which is 0.98% higher than the target for the period and 11.77% higher than the production during corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall of refinery production in some PSU refineries are as under:
v IOCL, Paradip: Throughput lower due to coke upliftment issue.
v IOCL, Digboi: Guwahati: Lower availability of Assam crude.
v IOCL, Mathura: Lower throughput due to advancement of DHDT shutdown to Nov-Dec’16 originally planned in December ’16.
v CPCL, Manali: Crude throughput was lower than Target due to deferment of DHDT shutdown from Oct’16 to Nov’16.
v CPCL, CBR: Crude throughput was lower than target due to HSD containment (lower offtake of HSD) & non-availability of Crude (Narimanam & KG-D6).
v NRL, Numaligarh: Delay in startup after shutdown.
3.2 Production in JV refineries during November, 2016 was 925.24 TMT which is 28.57% lower than the target for the month and 34.34% lower than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year. Cumulative production during April-November, 2016 was 11125.93 TMT which is 9.45% higher than the target for the period and 3.11% lower than the production during corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall of refinery production in JVs refineries are as under:
v BORL’s Bina: Throughput was lower than plan as refinery had undertaken planned turnaround during the month, which was originally scheduled in Aug-Sep’16.
v HMEL’s Bhatinda: The throughput is as per the optimized monthly plan.
3.3 Production in private refineries during November, 2016 was 7543.69 TMT which is 0.59% lower than the target for the month and 0.37% lower than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year. Cumulative production during April-November, 2016 was 60600.32 TMT which is 2.34% higher than the target for the period and 4.94% higher than the production during corresponding period of last year.
3.4 Refinery-wise details of the capacity utilization and production of petroleum products during the month of November, 2016 and cumulatively for the period April-November, 2016 vis-à-vis April-November, 2015 are given at Annexures-IV and V respectively.
