Oilmax-Eleven Consortium Wins Kutch Offshore Oil and Gas Block in DSF Round
A consortium of Oilmax Energy and Eleven has won the Kutch offshore oil and gas block in India's latest Discovered Small Fields bidding round, with each holding a 50% stake. This award marks Eleven's entry into upstream energy and expands Oilmax's portfolio. The move aligns with India's goal to boost domestic oil and gas production, reducing reliance on imports that currently cover nearly 90% of crude oil and half of natural gas needs, enhancing energy security amid global market volatility.
