Oil reserve in India: Amidst Israel and Iran tension, the most fear is about crude oil prices at this time. Market experts believe that if the situation in West Asia is not under control, then the price of crude oil can also cross $ 150. Meanwhile, the news of India has a big oil reserves. However, it is still being excavated.

India currently imports about 85 percent of its needs from other countries. It includes countries from Russia to Gulf. After the US and Russia, India ranks at number three in the world in terms of oil imports.

Union minister’s big claim

Meanwhile, Union Petroleum and Natural Gas Minister Hardeep Singh Puri has made a big claim regarding the reserve of crude oil. If this claim is proved correct, then the dependence of oil on other countries of the world can be eliminated to a large extent. Hardeep Singh Puri, while talking exclusively with the Indian Express, said that India is on the verge of searching a big crude oil bhandal in Andaman Sagar.

He has compared this reserve in Andaman to the huge oil discovery made by Hays Corporation and CNOC in Gayana. Significantly, Gayana is currently at the 17th position in terms of the world’s crude oil reserves, where there is an estimated reserves of about 11.6 billion barrels and gas.

Economy will be 20 trillion

Puri says that if a discovery like Gayana is in India, the country’s economy can increase from $ 3.7 trillion to $ 2 trillion. Oil Bhandal’s discovery in Andaman for the Indian oil industry can prove to be a trump card. This will not only make India energy producing countries with energy imports, but India can also get a new identity on the global energy map.
