ONGC was set up under the visionary leadership of Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru. Pandit Nehru reposed faith in ShriKeshavDevMalviya who laid the foundation of ONGC in the form of Oil and Gas division, under Geological Survey of India, in 1955.Over 56 years of its existence ONGC has crossed many a milestone to realize the energy dreams of India.
From a modest beginning, ONGC has grown to be one of the largest Exploration & Production companies in the world in terms of reserves and production.Today, Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Ltd. (ONGC) is, the leader in Exploration & Production 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 fact, six out of seven producing basins in India have been discovered by ONGC. ONGC produces more than 1.27 million Barrels of Oil Equivalent per day.
It also contributes over three million tonnes per annum of Value-Added-Products.ProfileGlobal RankingOnly Indian energy major in Fortune’s Most Admired List 2012 under ‘Mining, Crude Oil Production’ category. It is ranked 171th in Forbes Global 2000 list of the World’s biggest companies for 2012 based on Sales (US$ 26.3 billion), Profits (US$ 5 billion), Assets (US$ 51 billion) and Market Capitalization (US$ 46.6 billion).

ONGC Represents India’s Energy Security Through its Pioneering Efforts ONGC is the only fully–integrated petroleum company in India, operating along the entire hydrocarbon value chain. It has single-handedly scripted India’s hydrocarbon saga. Some key pointers: ONGC has discovered 6 out of the 7 producing basins in India: It has 7.
59 billion tonnes of In-place hydrocarbon reserves. It has to its credit more than 320 discoveries of oil and gas with Ultimate Reserves of 2.69 Billion Metric tonnes (BMT) of Oil Plus Oil Equivalent Gas (O+OEG) from domestic acreages. It has cumulatively produced 851 Million Metric Tonnes (MMT) of crude and 532 Billion Cubic Meters (BCM) of Natural Gas, from 111 fields. ONGC has won 121 out of a total 235 Blocks (more than 50%) in the 8 rounds of bidding, under the New Exploration Licensing Policy (NELP) of the Indian Government. ONGC’s wholly-owned subsidiary ONGC Videsh Ltd. (OVL) is the biggest Indian multinational, with 30 Oil & Gas projects (9 of them producing) in 15 countries.

ONGC possesses about one tenth of the total Indian refining capacity. ONGC has a well-integrated Hydrocarbon Value Chain structure with interests in LNG and product transportation business as well. A unique organization in world to have all operative offshore and onshore installations (403) accredited with globally recognized certifications.
Competitive StrengthAll crudes are sweet and most (76%) are light, with sulphur percentage ranging from 0.02-0.10, API gravity range 26°-46° and hence attract a premium in the market. Strong intellectual property base, information, knowledge, skills and experience Maximum number of Exploration Licenses, including competitive NELP rounds. ONGC has bagged 121 of the 235 Blocks (more than 50%) awarded in the 8 rounds of NELP. ONGC owns and operates more than 26,600 kilometers of pipelines in India, including sub-sea pipelines.
No other company in India operates even 50 per cent of this route length. Perspective Plan 2030 (PP2030)PP2030 charts the roadmap for ONGC’s growth over the next two decades. It aims to double ONGC’s production over the plan period with 4-5 per cent growth against the present growth rate of 2 percent.
In physical terms the aspirations under Perspective Plan 2030 aims for – Production of 130 mmtoe of oil and oil equivalent gas (O + OEG) per year and accretion of over 1,300 mmtoe of proven reserves. Grow ONGC Videsh Limited (OVL) six fold to 60 mmtoe of international O+OEG production per year by 2030. More than 20 mmtoe of O+OEG production per year in India coming from new unconventional sources such as shale gas, CBM, deepwater and HPHT (High Pressure ; High Temperature) reservoirs. Over 6.5 GW power generation from nuclear, solar and wind and 9 MTPA of LNG. Scaling up refining capacity to over 20 MMTPA and targeted investments to capture downstream integration in petrochemicals.
Sourcing Equity Oil AbroadONGC Videsh Limited (OVL) is operating in 15 countries with 30 projects with cumulative investment worth over USD 15 billion, to source equity oil ; gas for energy security of the country. Over the years OVL has emerged as the biggest Indian Multinational. The company now has participation in 30 E;P projects in 15 countries namely Vietnam (1 project), Russia (2 projects), Sudan (2 projects), South Sudan(2 projects), Iraq (1 project), Libya (1 project), Myanmar (2 projects), Syria (2 projects), Cuba (2 projects), Brazil (4 projects), Nigeria (1 project), Colombia (6 projects), Venezuela (2 projects) and Kazakhstan (1 project). Out of 30 projects, ONGC Videsh is Operator in 9 projects and Joint Operator in 7 projects. OVL continued to maintain its robust growth with production of 6.214 MMT of Crude Oil and 2.539 BCM of Gas during 2011-12.
Its proved reserves (1P) as on 1st April 2012 stood at 193.381 MTOE, which next to ONGC, is the second largest holding of proved oil and gas reserves by any Indian Company. OVL’s share of total reserves (3P) of oil and oil equivalent gas as on 1st April 2012 was 425.941 MTOE. As on 31st March, 2012, the Reserves-to-Production (R/P) Ratio considering proved reserves was 22.09.

ONGC has already commissioned a 50 MW Wind Farm in Gujarat and plan is afoot to set up another 100 MW Wind Farm in Rajasthan. ONGC has also set up 3 Solar Thermal Engines at Solar Energy Centre, Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) campus at Gurgaon. Value-chain integrationONGC’s purchase of majority stake in equity in the ailing Mangalore Refinery & Petrochemicals Limited (MRPL), a stand-alone refinery of 9.69 MMT capacity in March 2003 is a standout testimony of ONGC’s integrated business model. Besides adding that desired comfort to this Company in mitigating higher risk of E;P operation, this deal also set an example in the Indian business history where a PSU has taken over a joint stock company and turned it around in a record time of one year.
Moving ahead, ONGC has taken structured initiatives towards value-multiplier integration projects like – Refinery, LNG, Petrochemicals, Power, SEZ, etc., to have presence in the entire hydrocarbon value-chain.
