Oil India Limited (OIL) held its 67th Annual General Meeting (AGM), where Chairman & Managing Director Dr. Ranjit Rath presented the company's growth roadmap. Key priorities include increasing domestic oil and gas production, accelerating exploration in deep and ultra-deepwater areas, strengthening the integrated energy value chain, and expanding into clean energy.
Dr. Rath highlighted the government's 'Samudra Manthan – National Offshore Exploration Scheme' and 'GOBARdhan – National Circular Bioenergy Scheme' as significant policy drivers for OIL's future capabilities. In FY 2025-26, OIL produced 3.450 MMT of crude oil and 3.186 BCM of natural gas, achieving its highest crude oil production rate in 14 years at 10,566 MTPD. The company completed 74 wells (22 exploratory and 52 development) and improved its Reserve Replacement Ratio (RRR) to 1.02. OIL is targeting around 10 MMTOE production by the end of the decade.
The momentum continued into Q1 FY27, with an 11% year-on-year increase in crude oil production to 0.950 MMT, and a record daily crude oil production of 10,921 MT. For FY 2025-26, OIL reported a consolidated Profit After Tax (PAT) of ₹7,551 crore and a consolidated net worth of ₹53,716 crore. The company declared a dividend of ₹11.50 per equity share and invested over ₹21,673 crore across its operations.
OIL's offshore exploration efforts are aligned with the 'Samudra Manthan' initiative, which aims for large-scale offshore seismic acquisition and deepwater drilling. The company has acreage in the Andaman, Krishna-Godavari, Mahanadi, and Kerala-Konkan basins. Recent discoveries in the Andaman basin indicate an active petroleum system.
In its integrated energy value chain, OIL is expanding the Numaligarh Refinery from 3 MMTPA to 9 MMTPA and has completed the augmentation of the Numaligarh-Siliguri Product Pipeline. The company also recorded its highest-ever standalone quarterly PAT of ₹2,870 crore in Q1 FY27.
Regarding clean energy, OIL is focusing on Compressed Bio-Gas (CBG) through OIL Green Energy Limited (OGEL), supported by the GOBARdhan scheme. OIL has reduced its Scope 1 & 2 emissions by approximately 18% against the FY24 baseline and aims for Net Zero by 2040. The GOBARdhan scheme, with an outlay of ₹23,731 crore, will support scaling CBG production through various incentives.
Dr. Rath reiterated OIL's commitment to growing domestic production, expanding hydrocarbon reserves, developing offshore exploration capabilities, and building new energy businesses, all while maintaining capital discipline and a strong balance sheet to ensure India's energy security and create long-term shareholder value.
