Concerns

The volatility in the crude market & subsidy burden on the IOCL has dented the company performance like other PSU oil companies. This is also reflected in its FORTUNE rating this year. Moreover, bureaucratic hurdles in projects are hurting company advancement. IOCL has one of the best technical manpower for execution of jobs.The newly announced 5 billion dollar contract with Iran raises severe implications on the UN and U.S. sanctions on nuclear proliferation.

India has begun the development of a strategic crude oil reserve sized at 37.4 million barrels (5,950,000 m3), enough for two weeks of consumption.[3] Petroleum stocks have been transferred from the Indian Oil Corporation(IndianOil) to the Oil Industry Development Board (OIDB).[4] The OIDB then created the Indian Strategic Petroleum Reserves Ltd (ISPRL) to serve as the controlling government agency for the strategic reserve.[5]
