as Cairn in its plea has contended that delay on the government&#8217;s part to take a decision is preventing it from infusing further investment to the tune of Rs 30,000 crore and more in the project.<\/p>\n<p>The court was of the opinion that by having a fixed time schedule for the entire exercise, further production might not suffer.<\/p>\n<p>Cairn, represented by senior advocate C A Sundaram, argued that ever since 2009, when commercial production from the block commenced, it has been after the government to extend the PSC, but till now no decision has been taken.<br \/>\nCairn said that as per terms of the PSC, if commercial production starts, then the contract has to be extended for a term which has to be mutually agreed on by both the joint venture parties.<\/p>\n<p>It contended during the arguments that there was a consensus between it and ONGC on extension of the PSC for a period of 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>This claim was disputed by the government as well as ONGC.<\/p>\n<p>The government said that prior to taking any decision it needs various particulars, including envisaged plan of action, estimated reserves, how much can be recovered and what would be the government&#8217;s share, amongst others.<\/p>\n<p>The government also said that it needs to see that both Cairn and ONGC are &#8220;on the same page&#8221; with regard to the proposal for extension and the time period.<\/p>\n<p>Cairn said that when none of state-run companies could find oil in the block, it had invested around Rs 10,000 crore in exploration back in 1995 when the PSC was entered into and added that the government has earned around Rs 80,000 crore from the commercial production out of the area.<\/p>\n<p>It said it is committed to bringing in more investment, however, it needs a confirmation from the government that the PSC would be extended.<\/p>\n<p>In its plea, Cairn has said that estimated recoverable assets in the block are approx 1.2 billion barrels of oil equivalent, of which 466 million barrels are expected to be recovered beyond current PSC period until 2030.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, it is producing natural gas from the block and supplying it to government companies.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211;
