Indian Strategic Petroleum Reserves Limited (ISPRL)
Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGR

Q2Domain Verified
Considering the evolving energy landscape and India's commitment to cleaner fuels, what is the most significant practical implication of the 'Production Sharing Contract' (PSC) model for international oil companies (IOCs) operating in India's upstream sector?
The government guarantees a fixed rate of return on investment for IOCs, regardless of discovery success.
The PSC model primarily focuses on service contracts, where IOCs are paid a fixed fee for their exploration and production services.
IOCs bear the entire exploration risk, and if successful, share the produced hydrocarbons with the government after cost recovery.
IOCs are granted outright ownership of discovered hydrocarbon reserves, with the government levying royalties and taxes.
Q3Domain Verified
The 'Open Acreage Licensing Policy' (OALP) in India's upstream sector represents a significant shift from previous licensing rounds. What is its primary objective in terms of attracting investment and enhancing domestic production?
To offer exploration blocks through a competitive bidding process where companies can choose their desired acreage.
To enable companies to bid for any exploration acreage not already awarded, on a first-come, first-served basis.
To exclusively grant exploration rights to national oil companies (NOCs) for strategic reasons.
To restrict exploration to pre-defined blocks based on government assessments.
