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

6. 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.

7. 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.

8. 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 5859% 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

9. 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.

10. 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.
1.3. Players in the Energy Sector:The following is a list of the world's largest Oil and gas companies, ordered by revenue in millions of
U.S. dollars according to the Fortune Global 500. Currently all companies with revenue greater than $25
billion are included.

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

15. 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

16. 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.

17. 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.

18. 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

APPROPRIATION
(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

28. 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

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.
