Cairn India’s Rajasthan block is anticipated to hold a record 7.3 billion barrels of oil reserves that can produce 15 million tonnes of oil, the highest by any field in India. Of which, 3.1 billion barrels of reserves are yet to be discovered. Considering risk prospectively, 530 million barrels have potential to be recovered.
The production includes 150,000 bpd (7.5 million tonnes a year) from Mangala and 25,000 bpd from Bhagyam, the second biggest of 25 oil and gas finds in the Rajasthan block. Production from Mangala, the largest on-land oil field in India, was hiked by 20 per cent within a day of approval.
On April 19, the company secured government approval for hiking Mangala output from 125,000 bpd to 150,000 bpd. Cairn is the operator of Rajasthan block with 70 percent interest while state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corp (ONGC) holds the remaining 30 percent.
Moreover, the gross production from the Mangala field in the Rajasthan block was 124,081 bopd and 124,749 bopd during Q4 and the full year, respectively. The Bhagyam field, the second largest discovery in the Rajasthan block, commenced production in January 2012, and has produced 13,247 bopd on a gross basis during the quarter.
Recently, the company reported an 11% fall in its net profit at Rs 2,186 crore for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2012 as against Rs 2,458 crore in the same quarter a year ago. The net profit decrease may be partly attributed to the forex loss of Rs 217 crore incurred during the quarter. It was Rs 38 crore in the same period a year ago.
