The joint venture was incorporated in April 2008 consequent to a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed in March 2005 at New Delhi to jointly develop Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Projects in Venezuela. ONGC Videsh has an equity interest of 40% in the Project with PDVSA holding the balance 60%.
