  1. We have no alternative but to develop Shale Gas resources of the Country

  2. As per earlier figures compiled in DGH the production of Conventional Gas in India is likely to decline after 2015. Therefore, Shale Gas will be the only Domestic Source of Gas availabile in India, in the near future.

  3. CONVENTIONAL GAS SUPPLY IN INDIA Source: DGH Million Cubic Feet per Day (MMCF/Day) India’s conventional supplies decline after 2015 Oil India Private & JVs ONGC 2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 2019-20 2020-21

  4. As per working group of Petroleum & Natural Gas (2012-17) the Domestic Gas Production during the period 2016-17 to 2021-22 will not increase significantly. • The demand for gas in the country will be met by import of LNG to the tune of 101 MMSCMD i.e. 40% of then demand in 2013-14 and will increase to 163 MMSCMD i.e. 45% of then demand expected in 2016-17. Thereafter, the country may import both LNG and cross-country piped gas to the tune of 288 MMSCMD or 57% of then demand in 2017-18 to 2021-22. • This is a very serious situation as during the period 2025-2030 the import of Crude Oil may reach 90% and import of Natural Gas can be over 60%.

  5. Pipeline import LNG Import Domestic Gas LNG Import Price USD 14-18 MMBTU Pipeline import Price - USD 12-14 MMBTU Domestic Gas Price USD 4.2-6.5 MMBTU

  6. Based on IEA’s World Energy Outlook 2009 India’s incremental Carbon Footprint between the period 2007-2030 will be 2035 MT Co2 /Annum. Incidentally, this + 153% increase over 2007 will be the highest for any major country in the world. In contrast, the figures for USA, Europeon Union and Japan are respectively -4%, -10% and -20%. As we produce more gas in the country, the Carbon Footprint will dramatically improve.

  8. As per IEA’s World Energy Outlook 2009, India’s Oil & Gas import by 2030 would be over 300 billion USD in 2009 terms. In addition, about 70 billion USD may be used to import LNG and piped gas from abroad. India will be only major country in the world investing 6.5% of its GDP on Oil & Gas imports. Figures for China, Japan and European Union the other major importing regions would be respectively only 3.5%, 3% and 2.5%.

  11. Indian economy and foreign exchange reserves cannot sustain the projected, future energy imports. Therefore, early development of Domestic Shale Gas/Oil is essential.

  12. What is shale gas development? It requires large dispersed and dynamic above ground activity Exploration Stratigraphic imaging Shale characterization A land seismic truck Core logging Development Large land requirement Multi horizontal wells & PAD drilling Multi truck and frac equipment Production Surface facilities Waste processing Pipeline transportation

  13. Basic technology for shale gas development • Multi stage fraccing: • 5-20 fraccs per well • Typical use 4 Mn Gallons water/well • Typical proppant 1000-3000 metric tonnes Shale Gas approach Source: Horizontal Wells and Gas Shales (The Oil Drum , 2009); Horizontal Well technology (Dr. S.D. Joshi), EIA

  32. DRAFT POLICY ANNOUNCED BY GOVT. FOR SHALE GAS / OIL IN INDIA • THROUGH OPEN INTERNATIONAL COMPETITIVE BIDDING (ICB) PROCESS • SUCCESSFUL BIDDERS TO SIGN CONTRACT WITH THE GOVT. BASED ON THE MODEL CONTRACT • IN CASE SHALE GAS BLOCK FALLS WITHIN AN EXISTING OIL & GAS / CBM BLOCK THEN RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL OFFERED TO THE EXISTING CONTRACTOR TO MATCH OFFER OF SELECTED BIDDER. IN CASE THEY REFUSE, THEN ENTER INTO MODEL CO-DEVELOPMENT / OPERATING AGREEMENT FOR SIMULTANEOUS EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION.

  33. GOVT. WILL ENSURE ALL STATUTORY, REGULATORY AND SECURITY CLEARANCES ARE OBTAINED BEFORE BIDDING • EXPLORATION WILL BE AN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE LAND, INCLUDING THE WATER ACT 1974, AIR ACT, 1981 AND UNDER ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION MEASURES • PROVISION FOR OPERATING COMMITTEE AND SEPARATE STEERING COMMITTEE • SHALE GAS IS PRODUCED OVER LONGER TIME SO MINING LEASE (ML) MAY BE GIVEN FOR 30 YEARS. WITH PROVISION FOR AUTOMATIC EXTENSION, IF NECESSARY. • THE SELECTED BIDS WILL BE FIRST APPROVED BY AN EMPOWERED COMMITTEE OF SECRETARIES. THEREAFTER, FINAL APPROVAL BY CCEA. • PROVISION FOR ADDRESSING WATER MANAGEMENT ISSUES AND OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES.

  34. FISCAL REGIME • CONTRACTOR WILL PAY ROYALTY TO STATE GOVERNMENT. • CONTRACTOR TO BID PRODUCTION LEVEL PAYMENT (PLP) ON A SLIDING SCALE BASED ON INCREMENTAL PRODUCTION. • COST RECOVERY WILL NOT BE ADMISSIBLE. • COMMERCIAL DISCOVERY BONUS - USD 0.3 MILLION • NO CESS PAYABLE ON SHALE OIL • TO PAY APPLICABLE INCOME TAX AS PER INCOME TAX ACT 1961. • THE GAS PRICING MECHANISM WILL BE UNDER BROAD DIRECTIONS OF GOVERNMENT POLICIES.

  35. Suggestions on Draft Policy to attract Technology & Investment

  36. Suggestion 1 Draft Policy states pricing of gas will be within the framework of the Govt. Policies on Marketing and Pricing of Gas. This will be the main stumbling point in the shale gas policy. Because Shale gas wells are drilled deeper, drilled horizontally with multi stage fraccing, they need huge quantities of water and proppants, therefore, they cost 2-3 times more than conventional wells. Without market driven price many wells will not get drilled as per the experience of USA.

  37. Experience of USA – maximum number of rigs operate and maximum wells get drilled when shale gas price is high.

  38. Suggestion 2 In the draft policy no income tax or fiscal incentive provided. It is suggested that at least in the first round of Shale Gas to attract Companies with requisite experience, technology and financial strength some incentives may be considered. Reasons 1. Interest of companies is fading in India. Example NELP Rounds from I to IX

  39. Exploration Blocks awarded in NELP Rounds NELP Rounds

  40. Reasons (Contd.)2. Very high cost of Shale Gas development (2-3 times more than conventional hydrocarbons).3. Lack of infrastructures available in the country for shale gas. Very limited pipeline network.4. Lack of sufficient sub-surface data which will discourage private companies specially foreign companies from investing due to conceived high geological risk.5. Limited unconventional E&P experience in the country.6. Very poor land and fresh water availability being densely populated country.

  41. Reasons (Contd.)7. Shale Gas production from very tight shales is a highly complex and technically challenging process. It will be necessary to provide incentives to attract experienced oil companies with technologies from abroad and also to encourage Indian companies to invest money in this new kind of use of technology, in a country where commercial presence of shale gas is not yet established.8. According to EIA publications, April 2011 there are 32 countries having 48 major Shale Gas Basins in the world. Thus, India has to compete with many countries to attract suitable Companies which can bring technology, capital and management capabilities.

  42. * Only Rajasthan basin estimated Source: EIA, April 2011 India is competing with other countries to attract companies with shale gas experience that will bring Technology, Capital & Management capabilities 48 MAJOR SHALE GAS BASINS IN 32 COUNTRIES EIA estimates 6622 TCF recoverable in the assessed basins. US: 862 TCF India: 63* TCF

  43. Reasons (Contd.)9. When NELP and CBM Rounds introduced for the first time, the Government provided 7 year tax holiday to attract companies to bid in India. Now that even more complex and technology intensive Shale Gas Policy is being announced it may be necessary to again consider 7 years tax holiday.10. If above is not feasible then a case should be build up for atleast 4 – 5 years tax holiday.Shale gas wells decline very fast. To maintain production at reasonable level for sale to industry, wells have to be drilled every 2 – 3 yearsIt is estimated that in 4 – 5 years only around 20% gas may get produced out of entire life of field on which tax holiday will apply. This model can be developed by DGH. The Govt. will still earn full tax on remaining 80% of gas.The Govt. is getting many other revenues from shale gas block as royalty, central / state taxes and PLP etc.
