The downside in oil and gas production was mainly on account of the unruly conditions caused by cyclone Tauktae and the impact of COVID. Further delay in the mobilization of MOPU to the WO-16 Cluster project impacted production from this field.
International travel restrictions and COVID Impact has led to delay in gas production and logistics from the KG Basin. The peak production is expected at 14.5mmscmd and 45kbopd for gas and oil. OPAL’s performance is steady, and ONGC is improving process efficiencies to keep its profits positive. ONGC’s profits are also supported by a positive uptrend in Brent prices, led by the gas to oil switch, creating additional demand of 0.5mnbopd, with continued lower supply from OPEC+ with production cuts still at ~4mnbopd, resulting in inventory draws. As a result, the management has revised down its oil and gas guidance for FY22E to 22mmt and 22bcm from 23mmt and 25bcm earlier. Despite the continued delay and modest assumptions, ONGC’s gas production is likely to clock in at a CAGR of 7% over FY21–24E, with efforts to resist a decline in oil production.
The expectation of a severe winter, coupled with supply constraints and lower inventory, has led to gas prices at international hubs trading at multi year highs The estimated normalization of Brent prices by endFY22 and build in assumptions of US $69/bbl, USD65/bbl, and US $60/bbl for FY22E, FY23E and FY24E.
