With the uptick in business, a bunch of onland domestic E&P drilling and well service providers has begun to expand their foorprint.
8These are tough companies, capable of outbidding the competition with their low priced, bare boned operations.
8They have begun accumulating their own rigs and other supporting equipment
8India now provides a large enough headroom for them.

Indian and foreign scientists are working on producing Dimethyl ether (DME) as a clean-burning synthetic fuel that can be produced from natural gas, coal, biomass, or directly from carbon dioxide.
8DME in fact is a versatile fuel suitable for vehicles, electricity generators, and gas cookers; and can be used as a blend stock with LPG or a diesel substitute.
8Applying the principles of process intensification, a miniaturised plant has been developed which shrinks the three-step chemical process to convert natural gas into DME. Process intensification uses novel design and manufacturing techniques that allow a process to be made smaller without the loss of production capacity.
8These mini-plants have the advantages of being more energy efficient and cheaper to build, meaning the requirement for large reserves of, say, natural gas isn’t imperative.
8A new bunch of producers who are entering the E&P market may find this technology useful to monetize isolated gas reserves.

How oil prices are going to behave is of keen interest to the oil & gas industry in India
8What really is the consensus price of oil for 2018 and 2019?
8There are different factors at play. Iranian, Venezuelan and Angolan shortfall can be made up by other producers. With 167% compliance rate, OPEC & partners have ample room
to cover any gap left by Iran, Angola and Venezuela.
8But demand is going up robustly as well at an above average rate. Inventory data continues to point towards a tighter market
8And recent time spreads display mixed signals
8If prices skyrocket, OPEC spare capacity is, for now, enough to prevent a higher risk premium
8In the US, Permian shale is driving U.S. production to record-highs but transportation bottlenecks limit impact on international prices
8What is of primary concern is a significant upward shift in the long-term portion of the forward curve and this highlights the potential impact of underinvestment. Know more how much oil can come into the market at higher oil prices and from where.
8Find out more on what price this analysis attributes to crude oil in the current year and the next. Find out what different analysts are predicting
8Beyond 2019 however, the projections get uncertain

Natural gas is used as feedstock for the manufacturing of urea and it accounts for 80% of the raw material cost for urea manufacturing.
8And the fertilizer sector is one of the largest consumers of gas in India
8Yet there is little understanding in the oil & gas sector about the fertilizer industry and its cost-plus pricing regime.
8Know more about demand and supply of fertilizers and how raw material prices are behaving.

Here is a story of breakdown of an exceptional repair job of a process gas compressor that broke down in an Indian Oil refinery. The high-pressure piston rod became detached at the crosshead connection and hit the cylinder head. The parts were heavily damaged and it was not possible therefore to dismantle them and reassembly
8The refinery was at high risk as it was running on just one standby compressor
8A compressor manufacturer was roped in to repair the standby compressor which was made by a different company.
8After a detailed analysis, the required parts were engineered and manufactured, and reverse engineered where needed. The existing plate valve and actuators were upgraded and so were the piston rod glands.
8The repairer also developed, manufactured and installed new high and low pressure sealing elements while also rectifying the cylinder head end support foundation
8The piston rod was upgraded with Tungsten Carbide (TC) coating for longer lifetime

The government may end up confronting its own position on on foreign arbitration awards when it comes to enforcing the multi-billion dollar ruling on the Panna-Mukta and Tapti (PMT) fields in its favour
8The question under review here will be whether Indian court will have the jurisdiction to take on a challenge to a foreign arbitration award.
8A foreign oil & gas arbitration award was challenged by the petroleum ministry and despite having lost the appeal in the High Court it has moved the Supreme Court for redressal. A two-member Supreme Court bench could not decide on this sensitive issue despite 19 hearings and the matter has not been sent to the Chief Justice for reference to a larger bench.
8In effect, therefore, RIL and Shell can throw a spanner in the enforcement of the award by challenging it in an Indian court, citing that the Supreme Court is still to address the issue on whether such an award can be litigated in an Indian court

Charging while driving an electric vehicle is no longer a fad.
8A multi-billion dollar countrywide roll out is on the anvil in one country
8If all goes as planned, there would be no need to electrify smaller roads because the vehicles can run off the stored battery power until they reach another main highway.
8The IRR is attractive compared to other infrastructure development projects as costs can be recouped in three years
8This can dramatically change the nature of the industry, eliminating range anxiety and minimizing the need for a continued increase in battery sizes
