20 Jun 2017 Evaluate

Oil and Natural Gas Corporation’s (ONGC) overseas arm - ONGC Videsh (OVL) has been shortlisted alongside global giants like Chevron, Shell and Total to bid in Mexico’s latest round of oil and gas field auction. Mexico is offering 15 shallow-water exploration blocks in the second round of hydrocarbon auction, called round 2.1. These blocks cover a combined area of 8,908 sq km and hold prospective resources of 4 billion barrels of oil and oil equivalent gas.

In 2015, OVL was among the 19 companies and seven groups that was pre-qualified to bid for Mexico’s maiden offshore oil blocks auction. It was however unsuccessful in getting any block.

ONGC is India’s largest government-run corporation and produces about 70% of India’s crude oil and natural gas. The corporation is the biggest public sector commercial organization in India.
