Unit-wise production details with reasons for shortfall are as under:

1. 1. Crude oil production by ONGC(Oil and Natural Gas Corporation) in nomination block during April, 2021 was 1636.57TMT which is 1.81%higher than the target but2.69%lowerthan the production during April, 2020.

1. 2. Crude oil production by OIL(Oil India Ltd) in the nomination blockduring April, 2021 was242.74 TMT which is1.27% lower than target but 2.22% lower than the production during April, 2020.Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:

• Less than planned contribution from workover wells, drilling wells and old wells.
• Bandhs /blockade by local people and associations after the Baghjan Blowout.

1. 3. Crude oil production by Pvt/JVscompanies in the PSC (Production Sharing Contract) regime during April, 2021 was 613.95 TMT which is marginally higher than the target by 0.43% but0.31% lower than the production during April, 2020. Reasons for shortfall in production are as under:
