State-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) has reported an 18 per cent fall in its second-quarter net profit due to lower oil prices. The company's net profit stood at Rs 9,848 crore in July-September -- the second quarter of 2025-26 financial year -- compared to Rs 11,984 crore earnings in the same period a year back, ONGC said in a statement. The fall in profit of India's biggest oil explorer was primarily a decline in crude oil prices -- from USD 78.33 per barrel in Q2 of FY25 to USD 67.34 in the current fiscal. The crude oil that ONGC pumps from the ground and from beneath the seabed is sold to refineries, which process it into fuels like petrol and diesel. Price of natural gas, which is used to generate electricity, produce fertilizer, power automobiles as CNG and used in household kitchens as cooking fuel, rose 3.8 per cent to USD 6.75 per million British thermal unit for legacy wells. The rate for gas from new wells -- which receives a premium to offset additional c

State-owned ONGC, valued at around Rs 3.10 lakh crore, now trails food delivery firm Zomato despite its stakes in subsidiaries and minority investments accounting for over a third of its market capitalisation, indicating India's largest oil and gas producer is potentially undervalued. At the close of trading on Friday, Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) had a market value of Rs 3.097 lakh crore, lower than Rs 3.36 lakh crore of Eternal Ltd (formerly known as Zomato), Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (Rs 3.23 lakh crore) and Titan Company (Rs 3.13 lakh crore), according to BSE data.

In a setback for mining baron Anil Agarwal's group, the government has rejected Vedanta group firm's application for extension of contract for a key Cambay basin oil and gas block. Vedanta Cairn Oil and Gas, a unit of Mumbai-listed Vedanta Ltd, was the operator of the Gujarat offshore block CB-OS/2 with a 40 per cent stake. State-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC), which holds 50 per cent interest in the block, in a stock exchange filing, said the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas has, in a September 19 letter, told the partners that the application for extension of the production sharing contract (PSC) for CB-OS/2 has not been accepted. ONGC, which has been asked to take over the operations in the interim period, did not state the reason for the move. PSC is an agreement between the government and a resource extraction company. It gives the company time-specified right to explore, develop and produce resources in exchange for a pre-agreed share of the produced output

State-run oil explorers ONGC and Oil India Ltd are planning to begin a Rs 3,200 crore stratigraphic drilling campaign in untapped offshore areas early next year, as part of efforts to discover new hydrocarbon reserves and cut reliance on imports, officials said. In the first phase, four wells will be drilled in deepsea of Andaman, Mahanadi, Saurashtra and Bengal sedimentary basins. Global energy giant BP will provide technical expertise in identifying the locations as well as drilling, officials said. Stratigraphic drilling - also known as a stratigraphic test well - is a type of exploratory drilling aimed at studying underground geological formations rather than producing oil or gas. These wells are drilled to gather data on subsurface layers through continuous coring, petrophysical logging, and seismic data integration. The objective is to build a detailed geological profile to support future hydrocarbon exploration, without any immediate intent to extract resources. This will he

A fire broke out at ONGC's Uran gas plant on Monday, sparking supply concerns, but the company said there was no blast and gas distribution to consumers remained unaffected
The fire at ONGC's Uran gas processing plant has impacted MGL's gas supply to its city gate station at Wadala, while the supply to CNG stations may be affected. Mahanagar Gas Limited (MGL) is ensuring that the supply to its domestic PNG consumers is maintained as a priority without interruption.

Japanese shipping firm Mitsui O.S.K. Lines will operate two very large ethane carriers for Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) to import petrochemical feedstock for a subsidiary of the state-owned company, sources said. ONGC has entered into a partnership to build, own and operate two very large ethane carriers (VLECs). The two firms are currently discussing equity structure of the joint venture, two sources with direct knowledge of the matter said. Mitsui is likely to own majority stake in the ships that would be built in Korean shipyards, they said adding the exact equity structure would depend on ONGC's appetite. The specialised ships, with an estimated cost of USD 370 million for the pair, are intended to secure the petrochemical feedstock for ONGC Petro Additions Ltd's (OPaL) Dahej facility, with ethane imports beginning around mid-2028. Sources said it would take about two-and-half-years to build the VLECs. Mitsui and its partners currently own and operate four liquefied
