 PETROLEUM SECTOR : AN OVERVIEW

z Oil and Gas plays key role in Energy Sector

z Share of Oil and Gas in Commercial Energy consumption
„ India : 41%
„ World : 63%
z Per capita consumption of petroleum products
INTRODUCTION „

„
India : 110 Kg
World : 920 Kg
z Annual average growth rate for petroleum product
demand 6-7%, whereas world average is 1.54%
z 8th Largest consumer of Oil & Gas, expected to be 4th
largest consumer in next 10 years.

The fold trends of northernmost

8000 comparable in size and continuity, with
FOLDED DUPLEX Assam-Arakan’s
PROSPECT
The huge sub-Andean anticlines of northern Argentina and Bolivia have a very similar structural style to the
Mizoram / Tripura folds. Wildcats in Bolivia at Aguarague, San Antonio, Margarita have proved between 15-20 Tcf of
gas in the past 4 years. Here, in the blue-outlined boxes we compare the Ramos field’s fold style with our
prospective play on the Rengte section. Around 4-5 km depth there is potential for very large fields in Mizoram.
