Government to announce shale gas exploration policy by month end: Chaturvedi

12 Dec 2012 Evaluate

Oil Secretary G.C. Chaturvedi has said that the Government is likely to announce a shale gas exploration policy by December-end. Ruiling out any further delay Chaturvedi said “I am very confident that we will be able to bring out a shale gas policy by the end of this fiscal year as we are sticking to it”.

Due to the shortage of natural gas in the country and a projected increase in demand, the government is keen on shale gas exploration which would be an important new source of energy.

Currently, India does not allow the commercial extraction of shale gas. Public sector explorers ONGC and Oil India have taken up preliminary surveys to estimate the shale gas potential in the country. To bridge the growing demand-supply gap for petroleum products government is making all efforts for exploration of oil and gas in Indian sedimentary basins and abroad.

Further, Chaturvedi said the Open Acreage Licensing Policy is the way forward for exploration of conventional oil and gas blocks and launch of OALP has been delayed because of the National Data Centre, a prerequisite for the process, is yet to be set.
