This acquisition also has significant strategic importance to India, both in terms of augmentation of India's Energy Security as well as adding a new dimension to the relationship between Rosneft and ONGC Videsh besides further strengthening the cooperation between the two countries.  With this acquisition, the company now has 37 projects in 17 countries including Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Brazil, Colombia, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Libya, Mozambique, Myanmar, Russia, South Sudan, Syria, Venezuela, Vietnam and New Zealand.
