According to a leading economic daily, the government plans to auction many oil and gas fields of state owned firms to private enterprises. Of the 69 idle oil and gas fields of state-owned ONGC and Oil India Ltd which are to be auctioned, 28 are in Mumbai Offshore while another 14 are in the prolific Krishna Godavari (KG) basin. Reportedly, as many as 10 discoveries in the Assam shelf are also on offer.

The auction will be done on a new revenue sharing model where bidders will be asked to quote the revenue they will share with the government at low and high end of the price and production band. The new revenue sharing regime will replace the controversial Production Sharing Contract (PSC) model where oil and gas blocks are awarded to those firms which show that they will do maximum work on a block.

Also, single a license for exploration and exploitation of conventional and non-conventional hydrocarbons will be issued and operators will have the freedom to sell oil and gas on an arms-length basis by market price.
