C. REASONS FOR SHORTFALL
Company / State			Reasons for shortfall
ONGC (Gujarat)			Poor Influx, increasing water cut trend & power shutdowns.
ONGC (Mumbai High Offshore)			Base potential affected due to lesser availability of inputs.  Less than anticipated oil gain from side track & development wells.  Delay in project execution of G-1 field.
OIL (Assam)			Higher average decline rate in matured reservoirs results in less than the envisaged production.  Prolonged bandhs and blockades in OIL`s operational areas in Chabua, Barekuri of Upper Assam for 7 days.
Pvt./JVCs  (Rajasthan)			Less than estimated production from existing wells. Less than estimated oil production from Bhagyam wells.
Pvt./JVCs  (Arunachal onshore)			Water and sand ingress problem in wells & underperformance of newly drilled wells.
Pvt./JVCs  (Eastern Offshore-Ravva)			Natural decline of the field
Pvt./JVCs  (Gujarat Offshore-CB-OS/2)			Natural decline of the field.
Pvt./JVCs (Eastern Offshore-KG-DWN-98/3)			A total of 8 wells in D1, D3 and 2 wells in MA  have ceased to flow due to water/sand ingress.
Pvt./JVCs  (Eastern Offshore-PY-1)			Production gain post work-over in Mercury is less than expected due to water loading.
Pvt./JVCs  (Eastern Offshore-PY-3)			Field under complete shutdown w.e.f 30.7.2011 after expiry of the contract for existing production facilities.
Pvt./JVCs (Western Offshore-M&S Tapti)			Tapti production is less than budget due to slippage of Mid Tapti ERD wells and MTA-4 and 6 loading & shut-in of well STD-2.
Pvt./JVCs (Western Offshore-Panna-Mukta)			Oil production is lower due to underperformance of wells, unplanned shutdown & intermittent flow from gas well PG # 1 &no flow from gas well PG #10.
