Oil India targets 3.70 MMT crude oil (vs 3.458 MMT achieved in FY25) and 3.40 BCM natural gas production for FY26.
FY27 production targets set at 3.95 MMT crude oil and 4.31 BCM natural gas, implying ~7% and ~27% growth respectively over FY25 actuals.
Numaligarh refinery expansion (80% physical progress) to begin phased commissioning from December 2025, reaching 40% utilization in H2 FY27 and 80% by FY28.
Oil India standalone capex budget of ₹6,995 crore for FY26 (₹7,585 crore for FY27), with NRL capex at ₹9,133 crore (₹7,300 crore for FY27).
Company achieved ~1 MMT in Q1 and expects to maintain this quarterly run-rate. FY29 target is 4.2 MMT from main producing areas excluding any discovery-based additions.
Once DNPL connectivity (200m within NRL in 2-3 months) and IGL pipeline (by Dec 2027) are operational, additional 1.5 MMSCMD (~0.5 BCM annually) will flow through DNPL to national grid.
42 exploratory and 58 development wells planned. Capex budget for FY27 is ₹8,600 cr. Deepwater exploration in KG and Mahanadi basins to begin with first rig in June-July 2027.
DST, SRU, and ESD units to be commissioned by Oct-Nov 2026; full 9 MMT refinery project completion by March 2027 with gradual ramp-up to 75% utilization by FY28-end.
Original 3.7 MMT target revised down to 3.55 MMT due to Q2 production disruption from ethnic unrest in Northeast. Management is cautiously optimistic about recovery but keeping fingers crossed.
FY27 oil target: 3.75 MMT (conservative) or 3.798 MMT; FY28 oil target: 3.98-4.0 MMT. Gas targets: 3.8 BCM (FY27) and 4.6 BCM (FY28) contingent on NRL refinery ramp-up.
Primary unit commissioning expected end of December 2025. Full ramp-up to 3 MMSCFD gas intake will take until Q2 FY27 due to complex refinery stabilization requirements.
Mechanical completion achieved October 12, 2025. Awaiting PESO/DGMS approvals and 7-day disruption window for hook-up. Full 2.5 MMT capacity expected by April 2026.
