据油价网12月20日消息：印度启动了对75个油气区块的招标，这是该行业历史上最大的一次油气招标。
印度油气总局表示，此次招标针对的是陆上和海上32个合同区的所谓已发现小油田。据上游报道，明年2月1日开始接受投标。
招标条款包括常规和非常规油气储量的单一许可、有吸引力的税收规则，以及没有签约奖金要求。
去年6月，有关招标的消息首次出现，当时的能源部长Dharmendra Pradhan表示，这将是最后一次小型油田拍卖，并补充说："下次不会有DSF。将是大型油田拍卖。”
将在2月份拍卖的75个已发现小油田最初被许可给国有石油和天然气公司(ONGC)和印度石油公司，但结果证明规模太小，无法让两大巨头进行盈利性开发。
此次招标旨在缓解国家对进口石油的严重依赖，进口石油占消费量的80%以上。就在本月，印度石油公司与俄罗斯石油公司签署了明年供应200万吨原油的协议。印度也是中东和美国原油的主要进口国。
11月的最新原油进口数据显示，日均进口量为408万桶，高于10月份的396万桶/天。其中，293万桶/天来自中东生产商。北美和南美的原油进口量降至不足70万桶/天。
这是自6年前该政策出台以来，第三次提供已发现的小油田。在前两次招标中，该州授予了54个区块的许可证，吸引了17.6亿美元的投资。

India Launches Biggest Its Biggest Ever Oil Tender
India launched a tender for 75 oil and gas blocks—the biggest oil and gas tender in the history of its industry.
The tender is for so-called discovered small fields, or DSFs, across 32 contract areas both onshore and offshore, the Indian Directorate General of Hydrocarbons said. Bids will begin being accepted on February 1 next year, Upstream reported.
The terms of the tender include a single license for conventional and unconventional hydrocarbon reserves, and attractive tax rules, as well as the absence of a signing bonus requirement.
News of the tender first emerged last year in June, when then Energy Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said this would be the last auction of small fields and added, "There will be no DSF next time. Next time, it will be a 'major' round (auction of large fields)."
The 75 discovered small fields to be auctioned in February were initially licensed to state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) and India Oil but turned out to be too small for profitable development by the two majors.
The tender aims to alleviate a heavy national dependence on imported oil, which accounts for more than 80 percent of consumption. Just this month, Indian Oil Corp. inked a deal with Russia's Rosneft for the supply of 2 million tons of crude next year. India is also a major importer of Middle Eastern and U.S. crude.
The latest crude oil import figures for November show average intakes of 4.08 million barrels daily, up from 3.96 million bpd in October. Of this, 2.93 million bpd came from Middle Eastern producers. imports from North and South America went down to less than 700,000 bpd.
This is the third offering of discovered small fields since the policy was introduced six years ago. In the first two tenders, the state awarded licenses for 54 blocks, attracting investments of $1.76 billion.
