Reasons for Variations during the month:

a) Gujarat : Consequential effect of fire at well G#345, line leakage/chocking increase in water cut and less gain from exploratory wells

b) OIL : Miscreant activities, reservoir problems and less than plant contribution from drilling wells.

Reasons for variations during the month

a ) IOC Gujarat : Throughput restricted as per Naphtha demand.

b ) MRPL Manglore : Delay in Hydro cracker Unit -II start up and subsequent piling of Vaccum Gas Oil.

c ) HPCL Visakh : Regulation of crude throughtput in view of MS containment.

d ) IOC Panipat : Troughput restricted as per Bitument demand.
