| Margins | Focus on reducing OPEX via gas-run generators instead of diesel. |
|---|---|
| Demand visibility | Constrained by infrastructure; Dirok producing at 1/3rd potential. |
| Management confidence | High regarding resolution of HPCL dispute and alternative sales. |
Growth
B80 production declined from 377 barrels (Q4FY26) to 270 barrels (Q1FY27). Dirok gas production increased from 13.43 Mmscf to 15.424 Mmscf.
Outlook
Estimated FY27 capex of USD 45 million for B80 drilling; target gas production revival in Cauvery by mid-October 2026.
Risks
Crude sales dispute with HPCL held up ~INR 260 crore; production constrained by lack of gas evacuation infrastructure.
