New Delhi: India’s Oil and Natural Gas Corp. (ONGC), grappling with aging fields, is prepared to sacrifice profits by retaining a plan to pump Rs.11 trillion into a search for reserves even as crude slumps.

ONGC by 2030 plans to spend a sum roughly equivalent to the size of Vietnam’s economy to find more oil, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi seeks energy security. Investing as profits drop is a mix that signals potential stress for the company, according to Emkay Global Financial Services Ltd.

“We’ll invest about Rs.10,000 crore on exploration during 2015-16,” Dwivedi said in an interview in New Delhi last week. “ONGC plans to drill 50 wells, including 10 shale wells, during the year.”
