RIL to sell KG oil at $5 discount to Brent
RIL to sell KG oil at $5 discount to Brent
Company’s Q3 turnover may rise by Rs 1,400 crore on new sales.Reliance Industries (RIL), the country’s largest company by market capitalisation, will sell its Krishna-Godavari (KG) basin oil at a discount of around $5 per barrel to Brent crude oil, the global benchmark.
The company, which had reported sales of Rs 41,579 crore in the first quarter of the current financial year ended June 2008, may add around $300 million (Rs 1,400 crore) to its turnover in the October-December quarter as it begins sale of the KG oil to Indian refiners.
At present, Brent crude oil, which is produced primarily from oil fields in the North Sea near Norway, is trading at around $100-105 per barrel.
“Our oil will be priced at around $5 per barrel discount to crude oil. Tests have shown the quality of our oil is similar to that of Brent crude oil,” said a senior RIL official.
RIL will produce around 35,000 barrels of crude oil per day from the field at peak rate. This is around 5 per cent of the total crude oil produced in India. The company will initially produce around 10,000 barrels per day and increase it to peak rate in a month’s time.
As per the terms of the agreement, the government will earn profit from the sale of oil only after Reliance Industries recovers its $2 billion investment made towards producing the oil.
The cost of production per barrel of oil is not known. RIL share price on the Bombay Stock Exchange has fallen 9.3 per cent in the last month as world markets have tumbled on fears of an economic crisis.
RIL projects oil and gas sales from the Krishna-Godavari basin to boost its revenues and profits significantly. The company started test production of oil from the basin around 10 days ago.
“We are not yet selling the crude oil. The flow of oil from the well will stablise in the next two-three days and then we will start sales,” said the RIL official. “Full production will take another month or so,” he added.
An official with Indian Oil Corporation, the country’s largest refiner, said that refineries which are not very complex can process this crude oil at low costs. “The crude oil will yield mainly petrol and diesel and there is less residue,” he said.
The RIL official said that the crude oil from its field will not be refined by the company’s refinery in Gujarat. “The economics will not work out as our refinery is designed to create value from very cheap and low quality crude oil,” he said.

Republican members forging new bailout plan: Sources
Republican members forging new bailout plan: Sources
Sources tell CNBC that a group of US Republican members are forging an alternative bailout plan after the previous one failed to pass muster.
The proposal will be an alternative to that proposed by US Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson.
Components of the alternative plan including the following, according to sources:
· Require the Treasury Department to guarantee, at up to 100 percent, bank losses resulting from failed mortgage-backed securities originated prior to the plan's enactment. Such insurance, supporters say, would provide immediate value to the securities and a foundation for which they could then be sold. The Treasury Department would finance that insurance by assessing a premium on outstanding mortgage-backed securities.
· Allow companies to carry back losses arising in tax years ending in 2007, 2008, or 2009 back five years, generating a tax refund and immediate capital
· Allow a "repatriation window" for profits earned by U.S. firms overseas. Such repatriation amounts would not be taxed if invested in distressed debt (as defined by Treasury) for at least one year
· Allow banks to treat losses on shares of preferred stock in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac as ordinary losses, not as capital losses
· Suspend the capital gains tax rate for two years
· Limit backing of high-risk loans by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
· Schedule Fannie and Freddie for privatization
· Suspend "mark-to-market" accounting until the SEC can issue new guidelines that will allow firms to mark these assets to their true economic value.
· Stabilize the dollar by repealing the Humphrey-Hawkins Full Employment Act, which alternative bailout supporters say diverts the Federal Reserve's attention from long-term price stability to short-term economic growth
· Require the Treasury to write rules prohibiting excessive compensation or golden parachutes to executives of failed companies
· Task the SEC with regular, annual audit reports of entities the federal government has brought under conservatorship or now owns
