Going forward, natural gas produced from legacy fields will be priced at 10% of the Indian crude basket’s price, subject to dynamic floor and ceiling prices. The initial floor price has been set at $4/metric million British thermal unit and the initial ceiling price has been set at $6.5/mmBtu. The ceiling and floor prices are set to go up by 0.25/mmBtu per year after two years. In its earlier proposal, the Committee had suggested a fixed floor price of $4/mmBtu, while the initial ceiling price was proposed to be $6.5/mmBtu with an annual hike of $0.5/mmBtu. The new pricing mechanism will be negative for city gas distributions as it raises the gas cost to $6.5/mmBtu as long as the Indian crude basket is above $65/mmBtu. In the older administered pricing mechanism pricing regime, we would have expected a sharp correction as U.S. Henry Hub has already come down to ~$2/mmBtu. The new mechanism is positive for Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Ltd./Oil India Ltd. as the floor price is higher than their cost of production, vis-a-vis selling gas at much lower realisation than the production cost for a long time in the older regime..Click on the attachment to read the full report:.ONGC To RIL's Short-Term Realisations May Take A Hit On New Gas Pricing Norms.DISCLAIMERThis report is authored by an external party.
