 Primary energy consumption growth averaged 2.2% in 2017, up from 1.2% last year and the fastest since 2013. This compares with the 10-year average of 1.7% per year.
8This has had concomitant side effects. 
8And surprisingly, it was not renewable energy consumption that was grew the most, it was gas, followed by renewables and then oil.
8Energy consumption rose by 3.1% in China. China was the largest growth market for energy for the 17th consecutive year.
8Natural gas consumption rose by 96 billion cubic metres (bcm), or 3%, the fastest since 2010.
8Coal consumption increased by 25 million tonnes of oil equivalent (mtoe), or 1%, the first growth since 2013. Consumption growth was driven largely by India (18 mtoe), with
8China consumption also up slightly (4 Mtoe) following three successive annual declines during 2014-2016.

The biggest challenge for ONGC chairman Shashi Shankar is to to be able to keep his focus on containing both cost and time escalation in the KG-DWN-98/2 block to a point where positive returns are possible.
8The KG-DWN-98/2 block can turn out to become a technological and economic nightmare if not handled well.
8The breakeven levels look good at this point in time on account of high prevailing price of gas, but the gas markets are volatile, and are subject to vagaries of global demand-supply pressures, and it will be unwise to hope that they will go above the levels at which hurdle rates were calculated for the project.
8Quickly folding up the negotiations leading up to contracting for the project is the real challenge as of now before equipment and service prices go up, buoyed by the recent uptick in offshore E&P investments
8The window of opportunity is narrow and Shankar will have to use all the skills and experience at his disposal to make this work.
Or history can be cruelly unforgiving. Details
Early indications that the commissioning of ONGC's KG-DWN-98/2 block is going to be delayed until 2021 will require close scrutiny. For ONGC, it is a massive $5 billion investment and any delay will hurt the company badly. In this context, The entire decision making chain, going right down to the controversial choice of consultants and the design format  for the block may need a thorough relook.
8At a point before an investment decision was taken, ONGC had spurned an offer by the RIL-BP combine for joint development of the KG Basin discoveries. On hindsight, would it have made more sense for the public sector giant to take it up?
8For both RIL-BP and ONGC, the KG Basin represents foraging into rough weather and treacherous geology.  And RIL-BP more than ONGC had both the experience and extra infrastructure available for a  collaborative development programme.
8Could such a model been better than ONGC going it alone?
8For the collaboration model to succeed, all three blocks -- RIL's KG D-6, GSPC's KG-OSN-2001/3 and ONGC's KG-DWN-98/2 -- and some other discoveries around them -- particularly by ONGC -- would have had to be developed holistically rather than as a piecemeal exercise. 
8ONGC in fact had conducted two studies around this model. One was a report by Aker that said  that ONGC can save a large amount of money by using RIL's infrastructure built for the KG D-6 block. The report said that RIL's Deep Water Pipeline End Manifold (DWPLEM) along with other attendant manifolds as well as the Umbilical Distribution Hub were located a few kilometers away from ONGC's proposed KG DWN-98/2wells and they had the spare capacity for necessary tie-ins. What was more, RIL's Control Riser Platform (CRP) too has a spare capacity for sub-sea infrastructure.
8There was an attempt around that time to rethink the proposal to go it alone and the argument was rather strong that ONGC could avoid a duplication of infrastructure.
8The other report was by Blade Energy, which had done work earlier on the Deendayal field, to develop an all-encompassing and consistent strategy for appraisal and exploitation of all the cretaceous-synrift and tight gas plays in its blocks in the immediate vicinity of the GSPC block,. Blade estimated in-place volume of a massive 23 TCF of gas. Blade's findings were that the geology of these blocks -- in cretaceous-synrift and high pressure-high temperature settings -- was akin to that of the GSPC block and there was a recognition the exploitation of such blocks would require a different approach from conventional play. Unless the best technology was used and resources were expended economically, it would be difficult to make money from these blocks, the report had concluded.
8In this context, a joint undertaking, involving RIL-BP and ONGC was strongly suggested and this line of argument was pursued for a reasonable period of time before it was nixed. Details
The Gulf of Mexico (GOM) provides an example of how collaboration and joint effort between operators can provide for optimal results. 
8Over the last ten years, operators in the GOM realized the importance of access to infrastructure and collaboration with each other to fully utilize the existing or upcoming infrastructure. As a result, the hub concept, which is several fields jointly developed with a central production infrastructure to process hydrocarbon product from tie-in fields, has been introduced and gradually adapted by major operators. 
8The “Hub concept” creates a central production platform as a “Host” to process and handle production from adjacent multiple fields. 
8Independence Hub, located on Mississippi Canyon Block 920 in a water depth of 8,000 feet, is the result of a team effort of five E&P companies and one midstream energy company coming together to facilitate the development of multiple ultra-deepwater natural gas and condensate discoveries. 
8Recently, in response to a lower commodity price environment, many of the large GOM operators have been revisiting development options and scenarios.
8The near-term focus is on leveraging existing production infrastructure to develop discovered resources through lower cost subsea tieback developments. Details
If collaborative models are followed in the Gulf of Mexico, could the same concept been applied in the deepwater blocks in the KG basin?
8Operating costs of a deepwater project consist of gathering, processing, transportation, and water disposal and fixed well or lease operating costs.
8In this context, on hindsight, no explanation would be enough to justify building a separate infrastructure for ONGC's KG-DWN-98/2 block when massive capacity redundancy was available in the backbone built by RIL's in its D-6 block.
8An argument was brought in that the geological characteristics and well fluid parameters in the two blocks were different and therefore common infrastructure could not be used.
8But this is a specious argument and should be subjected to rigorous scrutiny. Details
Nothing highlights more the messy planning and decision making process in ONGC than the manner in which it went around converting the company-owned Sagar Samrat rig into a Mobile Offshore Production Unit.
8The original completion date was May, 2013 and it is not known yet when the vessel will sail out of  a UAE yard, where it is being converted, into ONGC waters on the Indian coast
8The latest date is November, 2018
8For ONGC, it is easy to blame the contractors, in this case a small Indian outfit called Mercator Offshore and UAE based Gulf Piping Company
8But the big part of the blame for the delay must be squarely on ONGC and its design and planning teams and this website explains why
8Should there then be a full investigation into the run up to the award of the contract and the series of wrong turns that the contract subsequently took?

For gas producers in India, it is important to keep track of all global dialogues on gas as a sustainable fuel because of their possible impact on business
8In most cases, companies building multibillion-dollar fossil gas infrastructure today expect to operate these assets for 30 years or more.
8The argument made that gas is a bridge fuel till the time the world eventually decarbonates is sought to be increasingly debunked by the increasingly assertive pro renewable energy lobby
8While methane gas leakage is used as the main argument against the use of gas, the argument now goes beyond that point to indicate that even in the hypothetical case of zero methane leakage, fossil gas cannot be a bridge fuel.
Find out more click on Report .   Details
Here are some quick facts that the alternate line of argument seems to be throwing up:
8How Much Room for New Gas?
Climate goals require the power sector to be decarbonized by mid-century. This means fossil gas use must be phased out, not increased
8Is New Gas Holding Back Renewable Energy?
Wind and solar are now cheaper than coal and gas in many regions. This means new fossil gas capacity often displaces new wind and solar rather than old coal.
8The Wrong Gas at the Wrong Time:
 Claims that fossil gas supports renewable energy development are false. The cheapest gas generation technology, Combined Cycle Gas Turbines (CCGT), is designed for base load operation, not intermittent peaking. Regardless, most grids are far from renewable energy penetration levels that would require back up. In many regions, storage and demand response
 technologies will be ready to step in by the time they are required.
8New Gas Locks in Emissions for 30+ Years:
 Companies building multibillion-dollar fossil gas infrastructure today expect to operate their assets for around 30 years. Emissions goals mean this expectation cannot be met.
8Too Much Gas Already:
The coal, oil, and fossil gas in the world’s currently producing and under-construction projects, if fully extracted and burned, would take the world far beyond safe climate limits. Opening new fossil gas fields is inconsistent with the Paris climate goals.
