The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) has slammed state-owned Oil & Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) for not placing desired emphasis on discovering oil and gas and being behind the schedule in monetizing its discoveries, as mentioned in few media reports.  CAG's report on Hydrocarbon Exploration Efforts of ONGC, which was tabled in Parliament today, underscored concern at the company's lack of adequate efforts, besides highlighting its anomalies in MoU target setting and reporting as well as performance measurement which could potentially mislead the stakeholder.

The official auditor also besides pointing several deficiencies in operations (procurement, hiring and contracting) urged the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas/ONGC  to do a de-novo review of MoU targets by placing desired emphasis on performance parameters directly linked to exploration.

Blaming ONGC for being tardy in purchase of seismic survey vessel, CAG reported that less than 50% of the basins were only able to meet 2D/3D survey targets. Further, CAG mandated the company to introduce transparency and competitive tension in the process of hiring consultants/expert. Moreover, it recommended the company to a review of Reserve Replacement Ratio (RRR) as a performance parameter for ensuring performance in exploration efforts.
