MOSL: ONGC (Buy)-Further delay in KG-DWN-98/2; expect an upsurge in APM price

ONGC: Further delay in KG-DWN-98/2; expect an upsurge in APM price

(ONGC IN, Mkt Cap USD20.5b, CMP INR121, TP INR150, 24% Upside, Buy)

 

  • ONGC reported in line crude oil sales (-4% YoY), while gas sales continue to be lower than our estimate (-6% YoY). Lower opex led to beat on EBITDA (8% higher than our estimate at INR101b).
  • ONGC almost reached FY20 production levels for crude oil, while the decline in gas production is due to lesser offtake by customers due to the COVID-19 outbreak. This resulted in a production shortfall in VAP as well.
  • Oil/gas production in FY21 was 22.5mmt/22.8bcm, totaling 45.3mmtoe. The company expects FY22 production at 48.7mmtoe, with oil/gas production at 22.5mmt/26.2bcm. Total production is expected to touch ~49mmtoe/52mmtoe by FY23/FY24.
  • We build our oil production estimates in line with management’s guidance (at 22.6/24mmt for FY22/FY23), although our gas production estimate is conservative, given the continued delay in KG basin gas production.
  • ONGC expects a further delay in production from the KG basin, with oil production guidance at 1.8mmt/2.2mmt in FY22/FY23 and gas production guidance at 2bcm/3bcm/4bcm in FY22/FY23/FY24 (v/s 1.2bcm in FY21).
