Hindustan Oil Exploration Company Ltd (HINDOILEXP) Q2FY26 Concall Summary - Sep-2025 Qtr
Performance Overview
- The company's performance in the quarter was significantly impacted by operational challenges, including monsoon-related disturbances in the B-80 (B-80) offshore block and lower gas offtake in the Dirok field, leading to a sequential decline in EBITDA.
- A major operational highlight was the ongoing drilling campaign in the Kharsang block, where five of the initial nine development wells have been put into production, reaching a level of approximately 900 barrels per day.
- The company is actively pursuing a substantial capital expenditure program focused on drilling a total of 28 wells across its onshore and offshore assets, supported by internal accruals and a secured debt facility of 250 crores, aiming to unlock significant below-ground resources.
- A key development was the sale of approximately 470,000 barrels of crude oil from the B-80 field to HPCL; however, a subsequent dispute regarding contamination has delayed the realization of sales revenue of 259 crores, which the company is working to resolve amicably.
- The company's future growth is heavily tied to the commissioning of the North East Gas Grid, which is expected to be fully operational in FY26, significantly increasing gas demand and enabling the monetization of substantial gas resources from the Dirok and Kharsang blocks.
