The Company could achieve the above despite adverse environmental problems in some of its major operational areas and the Company is making continuous efforts for improvement of oil production through the following measures: 
 
* Augmenting drilling for increased number of exploratory and development wells. 

* Prioritization of workover effort for quick revival of sick wells for on-stream production. 

* Implementation of recommendations of various reservoir management studies for optimization of field

   production. 
* Prioritization of high potential drilling locations for early completion.

* Enhancement of water injection through conversion of three additional water injection wells.

* Enhanced workover effort. 

* Optimization of new and old wells. 

* Intensification of Horizontal drilling. 

* Additional facilities for crude handling and infrastructure for production. 

* New wells to be brought on stream without any downtime. 

* Induction of ESP (Electric Submersible Pump) for artificial lift assistance. 

* Application of Gravel Packs for sand ingression in selected wells. 

* Indirect heaters relocated, installed & commissioned in strategic locations. 

* Frequent flow line heating jobs through Mobile Steam Generator to stop flow line gelling. 

 

TECHNOLOGY INDUCTION, UP-GRADATION AND INNOVATION: 


* Capability of the Integrated Enterprise Application (SAP-ERP) has been expanded across the organization through e-networking to cover business and information related to personnel, administration and organizational management, financial accounting, costing, budgeting, JV-accounting, production revenue accounting, project management, materials management, E-procurement, sales accounting etc.

  
* Successfully established radio connectivity of the Mud Logging Units (MLU) deployed in scattered drilling locations in field with the campus network for facilitating real time monitoring of vital data while drilling and for extending guidance from the campus with this. It is envisaged that monitoring of drilling well will be improved considerably and quickly and important decisions can be made with greater accuracy.  


* In order to augment the capability of preparing integrated survey database through cartographic digital format, new software named Geoscientific Interpretation System (GIS) has been commissioned during the year. Another software named AFI & EMERGE for fluid inversion (add and AVO) and reservoir property prediction using seismic attributes and well log data has been inducted during the year.

  
* Installed four (4) Mass Flow Meters at Tengakhat ITF for accurate measurement of volume of crude oil flow and water content in crude and action for procurement has been initiated for additional eight (8) such meters for installation in other areas. 


* Burner Management System & Remote Ignition System for safe and efficient operation of heaters in OCSs have been introduced.

 
* The J-Bend drilling technology has been adopted for the first time in OIL during the year. Three Horizontal wells drilled during the year resulted in significant increase of crude oil production rate. Introduction of Aphron Invasion Control System in two sub-hydrostatic wells during work over operations led to encouraging results in control of loss of fluid into formations. Based on the satisfactory results of the field trial of Sodium Format Brine in three workover wells, it has now been proposed to switch over to sodium format system over a period of next 2 to 3 years from the existing calcium chloride system which is associated with the problem of corrosion. 
 
 * Pre-cast, pre-stressed RCC slabs have been successfully used in place of costly, perishable, scared timber skids in seven drilling locations. The result has been found to be effective especially during rainy season and the skids are reusable, long lasting and expected to be economic in the long run.

Profile

 

The story of Oil India Limited (OIL) traces and symbolises the development and growth of the Indian petroleum industry. From the discovery of crude oil in the far east of India at Digboi, Assam in 1889 to its present status as a fully integrated upstream petroleum company, OIL has come far, crossing many milestones.

 

On February 18, 1959, Oil India Private Limited was incorporated to expand and develop the newly discovered oil fields of Naharkatiya and Moran in the Indian North East. In 1961, it became a joint venture company between the Indian Government and Burmah Oil Company Limited, UK.

 
In 1981, Oil India Limited (OIL) became a wholly-owned Government of India enterprise. Today, OIL is a premier Indian National Oil Company engaged in the business of exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas, transportation of crude oil and production of LPG. OIL also provides various E&P related services and holds 26% equity in Numaligarh Refinery Limited.

 

The authorised and paid up capital of the company as on March 31, 2007 are Rs. 5000 million and Rs. 2140 million respectively, with 98.13 per cent holding by the Government of India and 1.87 per cent by others. The net worth of the company as on March 31, 2007 is Rs. 68490.700 million.


Oil India Limited (OIL) has over 1 lakh sq km of PEL/ML areas for its exploration and production activities, most of it in the Indian North East, which accounts for its entire crude oil production and majority of gas production. Rajasthan is the other producing area of OIL, contributing 10 per cent of its total gas production.

 
Additionally, Oil India Limited (OIL) exploration activities are spread over onshore areas of Ganga Valley and Mahanadi. OIL also has participating interest in NELP exploration blocks in Mahanadi Offshore, Mumbai Deepwater, Krishna Godavari Deepwater, etc. as well as various overseas projects in Libya, Gabon, Iran, Nigeria and Sudan.

In a recent CRISIL-India Today survey, OIL was adjudged as one of the five best major PSUs and one of three best energy sector PSUs in the country.

 

Business

 

Oil India Limited (OIL) systematic and scientific approach to exploration has been rewarded with a high success ratio of 65% of exploratory wells drilled. OIL also possesses 2D and 3D seismic data acquisition capabilities, with excellent support services ranging from satellite navigation systems to remote blasting units.

 

Oil India Limited (OIL) owns a vast array of advanced computing systems and experienced personnel to process and interpret geo-scientific data through integrated exploration applications such as Remote Sensing, Structural and Stratigraphic Interpretation, Seismic Attribute Analysis, Source Rock Evaluation, Biostratigraphy, Petrophysics, Sequence Stratigraphy, Basin Analysis, Techno-economic Evaluation, etc.

 

Formation evaluation through an integrated approach of geological, geophysical, geo-chemical and reservoir engineering studies has allowed OIL to develop and exploit deep (3500-4700 m) thin sand prospects. Today, these reservoirs contribute over 50% of OIL’s production. It is envisaged that the current introduction of extensive 3D seismic will assist in reservoir management in both new as well as ageing fields, heralding a new chapter in reservoir engineering studies.


Oil India Limited (OIL) has so far acquired, processed and interpreted over 70,000 line km of 2D and 5,000 sq km of 3D seismic data in a variety of terrains, including hills, deserts, rivers, marshes, etc.


Reservoir Management

 

Oil India Limited (OIL) has pioneered the implementation of the concepts of modern reservoir management in the Indian oil industry. Numerical reservoir simulation, introduced by OIL in India for the first time in the early seventies, has remained its forte since inception. Simulation has been used as an important tool for management planning, production forecasting and decision making. Based on numerical simulation studies, gas and water injection, and water and polymer flooding projects have been successfully implemented in OIL’s fields, yielding recoveries averaging over 20% in excess of the recoverable solely by primary depletion.


Oil India Limited (OIL) has also developed special expertise in reservoir management of ageing fields. Today, OIL has state-of-the-art numerical reservoir simulators with dedicated workstations and a valuable knowledge-base to handle cost-effective reservoir evaluation, development and management in all demanding environments.


An integrated database management system designed and developed in-house has been extremely efficient in processing / analysing reservoir monitoring data. Apart from routine activities for reservoir surveillance, many other operations such as transient well tests, nodal analysis, collection of crude / condensate / gas samples for PVT analysis, analysis of side-wall and conventional cores, etc. are carried out as an integral part of reservoir management.
