REASONS FOR SHORTFALL Company / State Reasons for shortfall ONGC(Offshore) Closure of wells to maintain lift Gas pressure due to engine replacement and over hauling of Process Gas Compressor (PGC) at Heera, increased water cut in well B-173A#2YH affected production.  Less than anticipated oil gain from new development wells of D-1 field, delay in commissioning of B-193 process platform affected production. Delay in execution of G-1 development project. Less line condensare receipt from Offshore. ONGC(Gujarat) Less than anticipated oil gain fromworkover and frequent power shutdown affected production.  Leakage in crude oil despatch line of GGS-III & GGS-IV, low gas lift pressure due to frequent GEB power shutdown, ageing of fields resulting decline in reservoir pressure & increased water cut affected production. ONGC (Tamil Nadu) Production affected due to closure of some of the wells on account of less off take of gas by consumers. OIL (Assam) Consequential effect of bandhs and blockades.  Pvt./JVCs (Arunachal Pradesh) Production is less due to underperformance of new development of wells and sand/water ingress issues in older wells etc. Pvt./JVCs (Gujarat) Less oil production due to intermittent flow.  Well Asjol #7 closed due to non revival after work-over job.  Oil well have ceased in Bhandut.  Under performance of producing wells in Camby & CB-OS/2.  High water cut in producing wells in CB-ON/7.  Natural decline.  Water ingress issues in wellbores.      A statement showing Crude Oil Production during October, 2013 and cumulatively for the period April- October, 2013 vis-à-vis 2012-13 is at Annexure-I.

Company / State Reasons for shortfall ONGC (Offshore) Delay in commissioning of B-193 & SB-14 process platform affected production.  Delay in execution of G-1 development project. ONGC (Assam) Lack of consumers. OIL(Rajasthan) Less than the committed withdrawal of Rajasthan Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam Limited (RRVUNL). OIL(Assam) Low withdrawal by Brahmaputra Valley Fertilizer Corporation Limited (BVFCL). Pvt./JVCs (Arunachal Pradesh) Production is less due to underperformance of new development of wells and sand/water ingress issues in older wells etc. Pvt./JVCs (Gujarat ) Less oil production due to intermittent flow.  Well Asjol #7 closed due to non revival after work-over job. Oil well have ceased in Bhandut.  Under performance of producing wells in Camby & CB-OS/2.  High water cut in producing wells in CB-ON/7.  Natural decline.  Water ingress issues in wellbores.  No gas production from the field as wells have ceased due to water loading in Boala.  Gas production was ceased w.e.f. 10.11.2012 as per GOI directives prior to field abandonment in CB-ONN-2000/2.  Pvt./JVCs (Rajasthan) Gas production is less due to underperformance of wells. Pvt./JVCs (Jharkhand) Incidentally produced CBM is being sold in small quantities. Pvt./JVCs  (Off-shore) Tapti gas production is less than budget due to non delivery of expected volumes from infill wells and MTA # 3 early water breakthrough followed by loading. A total of 9 wells in D1, D3 and 2 wells in MA have ceased to flow due to water /sand ingress in KG-SWN-98/3 field.  Loading of wells, delayed well services activities, delayed delivery of PJ and PL infill wells and closure of MA wells due to leak observed in the MA riser. Natural Decline in the CB-OS/2 & Ravva field. A statement showing natural gas production during October, 2013 and cumulatively for the period April- October, 2013 vis-à-vis III.  A. REFINERY PRODUCTION     (IN TERMS OF CRUDE THROUGHPUT) Month / Period Planned Target (TMT) Actual Production (TMT) % age achievement Surplus(+)Shortfall(-) Vis-à-vis target             (in %age) Surplus(+) Shortfall(-)over last year (in %age) October, 2013* 19024.000 18374.949 96.6 -3.4 -4.8 April- October, 2013* 129906.000 130210.014 100.2 0.2 3.7 April- October, 2012 125565.593 *: Provisional. Note: RIL (SEZ) production figures for  August 2013 are revised from 3187  TMT to 3207 TMT & Sept` 2013 prorated figures revised from 3085 TMT to 3089 and October 2013 figures are on prorated basis. The crude throughput in IOC (Guwahati,  Digboi, Barauni & Bongaigaon), BPCL (Mumbai, Kochi), HPCL (Mumbai), NRL (Numaligarh), MRPL (Mangalore), ONGC (Tatipaka), HMEL (Bhatinda), RIL (SEZ) & Essar refineries have exceeded their planned target. The crude throughput in  IOC (Gujarat, Haldia, Mathura & Panipat ), HPCL (Visakh), CPCL (Manali &Narimanam), BORL (Bina),  & RIL (Jamnagar) refineries was less than their planned target. Company / State Reasons for shortfall IOCL, Gujarat Throughput is lower due to high Black Oil inventory on account of lower Bitumen demand. IOCL, Haldia Throughput is in line with lower HSD & Black oil demand during monsoon. IOCL, Panipat Throughput is restricted due to higher Black Oil inventory, & problem in DHDT unit. IOCL, Mathura Throughput is lower because of shifting of planned shutdown from Sep`13 to Oct`13.  CPCL, Manali Low crude throughput due to determent of Ref-1 shutdown (MoUshutdown period : 16-Sep`13 to 15-Oct`13, Actual : 27-Sep`13 to 01 Non`13). CDU II & CDU III thruput was lower due to OHCU shutdown (10 days in Oct`13) for catalyst scooping. HPCL, Visakh Low crude throughput for ISD (VGO) management. CPCL, CBR Low thruput due to LSHS upliftment problem. BORL, Bina Refinery shutdown was taken for 12days for replacement of reformer catalyst in Hydrogen unit.
