Internship Report On OGDCL

Chapter # 01
INTRODUCTION OF STUDY
1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY

It is a requirement for the partial fulfillment of BBA degree in


finance to have two months (eight weeks) internship in a bank
or financial institution. OGDC has the unique distinction as
being the oldest and well-organized company. Through my
internship I obtained an in-depth knowledge of the operations
of the OGDC and first hand training in the working
environment of a company of a high repute. In this report I
have explained myself with the practical knowledge gained
during my internship the main operations of the OGDC, on
how it works.
Oil industry is a lifeline for an economy. It is a world of oil
exploration, oil refining and oil marketing. Pakistan
understands the important of this industry for its economic
uplift. Therefore the government of Pakistan established
OGDCL in 1961. OGDCL is the leading firm providing 23% of
total consumption, saving Pakistan from imports and
contributing to economy by paying different charges to the
government.

1.2 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY

This report is based on study carried out for the fulfillment of


the degree requirement of the Bachelor of business
Administration at the Preston University Kohat campus, Kohat.
The purpose of study is to do practical work in field and apply

the knowledge of the classroom lectures of the real life
situation.

1.3 SCOPE OF WORK:


The focus of the study is the working operations and
procedures of a marketing department of OGDCL. As an
internee the main focus of my study research was on internal
managerial matters of OGDCL –e work environment,
organization structure, decision-making process, promotion
criteria and all such matters.

1.4 LIMITATION OF STUDY


Two months (eight weeks) is not sufficient for the purpose of
complete research of a specialized and sensitive institution. It is
to admit that the study attempts only those aspects, which are
closely relevant to the purpose of the study. Facts and figures,
which otherwise might be equally important, but not having a
direct bearing on the conclusions arrived at this study, have
been ignored.
The most important limitation from which the study suffers is
the non-availability of information in a manner required for
analysis and the secrecy of the company. Another important
limitation of the study is time and space constraint.

2.1 INTRODUCTION:
Prior to OGDCL's emergence, Pakistan Petroleum Ltd. (PPL)
and Pakistan Oilfields Ltd. (POL) carried out exploration
activities in the country. In 1952, PPL discovered a giant gas
field at Sui in Balochistan. This discovery generated immense
interest in exploration and five major foreign oil companies
entered into concession agreements with the Government.
During the 1950s, these companies carried out extensive
geological and geophysical surveys and drilled 47 exploratory
wells. As a result, a few small gas fields were discovered.
Despite these gas discoveries, exploration activity after having
reached its peak in mid-1950s, declined in the late fifties.
Private Companies whose main objective was to earn profit
were not interested in developing the gas discoveries especially
when infrastructure and demand for gas was non-existent. With
exploration activity at its lowest ebb several foreign exploration
contracting companies terminated their operation and either
reduced or relinquished land holdings in 1961.

ESTABLISHMENT OF OGDC:
To revive exploration in the energy sector the Government of
Pakistan signed a long-term loan Agreement on 04 March 1961
with the USSR, whereby Pakistan received 27 million Rubles
to finance equipment and services of Soviet experts for
exploration. Pursuant to the Agreement, OGDC was created
under an Ordinance dated 20th September 1961. The
Corporation was charged with responsibility to undertake a
well thought out and systematic exploratory program and to
plan and promote Pakistan's oil and gas prospects.

Preston University Kohat Prepared by: Farhad 6


Ali Marwat
Internship Report On OGDCL
As an instrument of policy in the oil and gas sector, the
Corporation followed the Government instructions in matters of
exploration and development. The day to day management was
however, vested in a five-member Board of Directors appointed
by the Government. In the initial stages the GOP arranged the
financial resources as the OGDC lacked the ways and means to
raise the risk capital. The first 10 to 15 years were devoted to
development of manpower and building of infrastructure to
undertake much larger exploration programs.

2.4 INITIAL SUCCESSES


A number of donor agencies such as the World Bank, Canadian
International Development Agency (CIDA) and the Asian
Development Bank provided the impetus through assistance for
major development projects in the form of loans and grants.
OGDC's concerted efforts were very successful as they resulted
in a number of major oil and gas discoveries between 1968 and
1982. Toot oil field was discovered in 1968, which paved the
way for further exploratory work in the North. During the
period 1970-75, the Company reformed the strategy for
updating its equipment base and undertook a very aggressive
work program. This resulted in discovery of a number of oil
and gas fields in the Eighties, thus giving the Company a
measure of financial independence. These include the Thora,
Sono, Lashari, Bobi, Tando Alam & Dhodak oil/condensate
fields and Pirkoh, Uch, Loti, Nandpur and Panjpir gas fields
which are commercial discoveries that testify to the
professional capabilities of the Corporation.

2.4.1 PGCL:
Preston University Kohat Prepared by: Farhad 7
Ali Marwat
Internship Report On OGDCL
A wholly owned subsidiary, the Pirkoh Gas Company (Private)
Limited (PGCL) was established in 1982 to undertake
development of Pirkoh gas field located in Dera Bugti Agency
in Balochistan with Asian Development Bank assistance.

2.4.2PRTI:
Keeping in view the growing needs of Pakistan's petroleum
industry, OGDC established its own Training Institute. Institute
offers two-year training programs for fresh graduate engineers
and short duration refresher courses in the fields of
Exploration, Drilling, Well Services, Gas Processing,
Production and Computing etc. Lately, professionals from
foreign oil companies based in Pakistan and the Central Asian
Republics have also started attending short courses and
seminars on specific technical and management subjects.
Institute has numerous facilities that include modern
classrooms, auditorium, audio-visual aids, and a huge
collection of professional videos, library, drilling simulator and
a complete electrical and mechanical workshop for training
purposes. Fully equipped laboratories are available for
production, exploration and well service courses. Recently the
function of research has also been included in the domain of
institute and name has been changed to Petroleum Research
and Training Institute.

HUMAN RESOURCES:
During the last 45 years the Corporation has grown into a
technically feasible and commercially viable organization. It
has developed a highly qualified pool of professionals who can
undertake and supervise almost all phases of oil and gas
exploration and production starting from preliminary
Preston University Kohat Prepared by: Farhad 8
Ali Marwat
Internship Report On OGDCL
geological surveys and culminating in the operation of oil and
gas processing plants.

As on 1st August 2006 OGDCL has total manpower strength of


11,358 out of which 1,910 are officers and 9,448 is staff. The
company possesses the largest professional/technical human
resource base in the country's oil industry.

2.6 EQUIPMENT BASE


In order to execute the exploratory and development programs
with the ultimate objective of attaining self-sufficiency in oil
and gas by developing the hydrocarbon resources of the
country, OGDCL has also developed a sound equipment and
operational base which includes 7 drilling rigs, 1 Work over
rigs, a Geological Field Party, 5 Seismic parties, 4 Engineering
Field Parties, a Gas Gathering and Pipeline Construction Party,
Seismic Data Processing Center, Geological Analysis
Laboratory, Wire line Logging Unit, Cementing Units and Data
Logging Unit.

CHAPTER #03
PROGRESS OF OGDCL
TRANSITION TO A SELF FINANCING
ENTITY
An important shift in the policy during the Seventh Five Year
Plan period was a change in the financing of the development
program of various public sector entities, including OGDC.
The Seventh Plan envisaged that OGDC will be strengthened
and restructured and its operations streamlined to transform it
into a financially viable and administratively autonomous
entity. Noting the Company's success, due to major oil and gas
discoveries in the eighties, the Government in July 1989, off-
loaded the Company from the Federal Budget and allowed it to
manage its activities with self-generated funds. The financial
year 1989-90 was OGDCL’s first year of self-financing. It was
a great challenge for OGDC. The obvious initial target during
the first year of self-financing was to generate sufficient
resources to maintain the momentum of exploration and
development at a pace envisaged in the Public Sector
Development Program (PSDP) as well as to meet its debt
servicing obligations. OGDC not only generated enough
internal funds to meet its debt obligations but also invested
enough resources in exploration and development to increase
the country's reserves and production.

PHYSICAL AND OPERATIONAL


PERFORMANCE:
OGDCL has also acquired modern seismic technology for
improving its ability to discover the unexploited oil and gas
Preston University Kohat Prepared by: Farhad 10
Ali Marwat
Internship Report On OGDCL
potential in the country. A number of major institutional
reforms and improvements have been implemented in all areas
of OGDCL operations enabling the Company to take up the
challenge of making the country self-reliant in the energy
sector. OGDCL is presently carrying out survey and drilling
activities in various areas of the country, and is striving to
achieve self-sufficiency for the national economy.

3.2.1 Exploration & Production:


OGDCL has conducted extensive surveys to identify potential
hydrocarbon bearing structures and has carried out drilling in
order to exploit available oil and gas resources. As of 1st July
2006 OGDCL has drilled 224 exploratory wells and 251
development wells.

3.2.2 Reserves Base:


OGDCL's updated estimates for remaining recoverable reserves
as on 1ST July 2006 stood at 101.075 MMSTB of oil and
10,204.3 BSCF of gas.

3.3 FINANCIAL HEALTH:


OGDCL's financial performance has been consistently
improving since becoming a self-financing entity. The net sales
of OGDCL have increased to Rs.96.755 billion (equivalent to
US$ 1.613 billion) in 2005-06 from Rs.73.710 billion
(equivalent to US $ 1.229 billion) in 2004-05 while its profit
after tax has increased to Rs.45.968 billion (equivalent to US$
0.766 billion) in 2005-06 from Rs.32.968 billion (equivalent to
US $ 0.549 billion) in 2004-05.

3.9 PROGRESS TOWARDS


PRIVATIZATION
The Company is now ready for another transformation to
public and private partnership under the Government's dynamic
policy. Prior to 23rd October 1997, OGDC was a statutory
Corporation and was known as OGDC (Oil and Gas
Development Corporation). The Petroleum Policy 1994
emphasized the need for restructuring of OGDC on commercial
lines through Strengthening of its Board of Directors and
allowing it more autonomy in all administrative, operational
and financial matters. The Petroleum Policy 1994 also
envisaged conversion of OGDC from a statutory Corporation
into a public limited joint stock company and restructuring of
Government investment in OGDC.
Hence w.e.f. 23rd October 1997, the statutory Corporation was
converted into a Public Limited Company henceforth known as
OGDCL (Oil and Gas Development Company Limited) with an
authorized capital of Rs.50 billion.
The position of Chairman/CEO has been bifurcated into a non-
executive Chairman and Managing Director/CEO, underscoring
transparency and accountability. The Board of Directors of the
Company has been reconstituted w.e.f. 16th February 2000 and
made independent.

3.10 INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING:


Messrs Merrill Lynch was appointed as Financial Advisor for
the transaction. Government of Pakistan disinvested part of its
shareholding in the company. Initially 2.5% of the equity with
an additional green-shoe option up to 2.5% of equity was
offered to the general public. The said Offer received an
overwhelming response from the general public and was

Preston University Kohat Prepared by: Farhad 17


Ali Marwat
Internship Report On OGDCL
recorded as a landmark transaction in the history of Pakistan’s
capital markets.
Being listed on the Stock Exchange, OGDCL looks forward to
a new corporate culture that will demand an increased degree of
transparency, accountability and responsibility under the code
of Corporate Governance. The company is now listed on all the
three Stock Exchanges in Pakistan with highest market
capitalization and it has around 24% weight age on Karachi
Stock Exchange. The company’s shares are now also traded on
the future counter of Karachi Stock Exchange (Guarantee)
Limited.

3.11 WHAT OGDCL CAN OFFER:


OGDCL can act as an enabler to lead and encourage E&P
companies to actively participation in country’s upstream
activities. The Company offers a number of facilities for joint
venture collaboration to foreign oil companies. It has an
extensive database. It offers valuable local expertise in the field
of geology and geophysics. OGDCL not only carries out
exploration and development activities on its own but also
enters joint ventures for oil and gas exploration. Presently
OGDCL is 100% owner in 37 Concessions; in addition it is the
operator as well as a working interest owner in 13 concessions
with GHPL and other E&P companies.
OGDCL has also acquired state-of-art seismic technology for
improving its ability to discover the un-exploited oil and gas
potentials in the country. A number of recent reforms and
improvement have been made in OGDCL operations giving it a
cutting edge of a petroleum company that taken up the
challenge of making the country self reliant in the energy

MY ANALYSIS:
INPUT STAGE:
5.1 SWOT ANALYSIS:
SWOT Analysis is conducted to identify the organizational
strengths (S), organizational weaknesses (W), environmental
opportunities (O), and environmental threats (T). Each analysis
helps to know that how these elements influence organizational
performance.
An organizational strength is an internal capability that can be
exploited to achieve goals, where as an organizational
weakness is an internal characteristics that may undermine
performance. An environmental opportunity is a situation that
offers potential for helping the organization achieves its goals.
In contrast, an environmental threat is an external element that
can develop into a non-crisis or crisis problem, and potentially
prevent organization from achieving its goals.
OGDCL‘s SWOT Analysis is given below;

The company has the highest market share as compared to all


other companies to whom the Government of Pakistan has
given the Licenses to work in Oil & Gas exploration sector.
The sales Growth rate is also very high as the local exploration
cannot meet the consumption necessities of the country and all
what explored and produced is fully consumed in the country
making the industry sales growth rate very high.
So OGDCL is in the square of Stars, and is enjoying its market
share and the growing industry benefits.

5.5 DECISION STAGE:


QSPM Matrix:
All the matrices discussed above show that the company has an
aggressive growth strategy all the matrices are give direction to
the company that the circumstances are feasible for the
aggressive growth strategy.
QSPM Matrix is used to evaluate the alternative strategies
available to the company from the applications of the above
matrices; the company has no alternative strategies as all the
matrices are guiding in one direction and same strategy. So
QSPM is not applicable OGDCL. So OGDCL should
concentrate on more and more exploration inside company to
fulfill the increasing demand.

CHAPTER# 06
TRAINING PROGRAM
I selected OGDCL for my internship, which is necessary during
two year MBA programmed. The OGDCL was established in
1961. The head office of the company is situated at Blue Area
Islamabad. OGDCL mainly deals with Petroleum products.
OGDCL is only biggest public sector company with sound
financial condition. I worked in head office of OGDCL for 8
weeks in different departments of the company but according to
my major subject I concentrated on Marketing department and
Human Resource department. It is a govt. organization where
working of internee is so much limited but I tried my best to
learn as much as possible. Due to restriction I could not work
very well on finance department and joint venture department
that were also of my interest. I could spend most of my time in
Marketing and after that in Human Resource Department. My
learning in these departments is as follows:

6.1 MARKETING DEPARTMENT:


During 8 weeks of internship I spend about 4 weeks in
marketing department. It is the responsibility of marketing
department to generate different reports related to production
and dispatches. These reports are based on data given by
different fields all over the country. It is the responsibility of
Data Processing officer to fetch required data from these faxes
and put it in pre-designed excel file for making daily report. I
learnt to make this report and help DPO to make it and show
him for any expected mistake before sending this report to
manager marketing and others.

Preston University Kohat Prepared by: Farhad 71


Ali Marwat
Internship Report On OGDCL
It is the responsibility of marketing department to confirm the
payment form different buyer that is given by sales section of
finance department. After that a letter is faxed to corresponding
fields to allow the buyer to uplift product. I assist in sending
these messages and also caution messages to different buyers if
payment date is getting over.
The auctions of LPG and Sulphur are held quarterly and
supervised by different people in marketing department. I
understand the whole procedure for bidding and uplifting.
I also worked with admin assistant whose job was to check
NLC transportation bill and maintaining the record of those
bills. This is all about my learning in marketing department of
OGDCL.

6.2 HUMAN RESOURCE DEPARTMENT:


Due my specialization in marketing I was bound to work in
marketing department only but I spent hardly one week in HR
department. During this short period of time I learnt something
that is given below:
OGDCL also hire contract base worker. So I did work with the
person who is responsible for the hiring and keeping all record
about them and allocating duties and controlling all matters. He
is responsible for sending reports about this staff to hire
authorities.
I also worked with a person who deals with all matters like as
health, bonus, hospital cards and allocation of plots in OGDCL
housing scheme of permanent staff. Further I did analysis of
procedure for Recruiting and Selection and Training and
development that have been discussed above in HR
Department.

6.3 Conclusion:
OGDCL is a big organization which is working all the Pakistan
and it is really a much difficult to study this organization in two
months that are very short period of time. But I tried my best to
lean as much I can. With shortage of time there were so much
security constraints that it was very difficult for an internee to
move from the allocated department for working in other
departments. OGDCL growing at very great pace and has a big
pool of qualified professionals but if department heads
concentrate more on their employees and at the same employee
do concentrate on work then the speed of growing might be
much greater than now.
I learned a lot during my internship period. This was my very
first experience of working in any professional organization.
This experience might help me more, if i join the oil and gas
industry but it would be helpful in other case because working
environment might be almost same in all organization like as
how to prepare reports, how to send letters to other departments
or other organization and what is the procedure for auction of
anything. So I can say that it was a really good experience of
working.

6.4 Recommendations
• OGTI is responsible for selecting internees and allow
working in any department. So if any one is sent in one
department then it is very difficult for him to go to any
other department unless having some reference in that
department. So OGTI should revise its policy.
• Contract base employees should be given some extra
benefits and chances for promotion as permanent
employee.

Ali Marwat
Internship Report On OGDCL
• Marketing Department head should visit the department
frequently to ensure that every one is present in office
and working especially after lunch break and should
engage all employees.
• There are no specific criteria for training internees.
Every department should be given special tasks to
students.
• There must be proper manpower planning and work
assignment planning by time to time. It can be made by
restructuring the department.
• There is no central data storage system in the OGDCL.
Initiatives have been taken but no further process after
sending letters all departments.
• There should be proper surveillance system to measure
the employee’s performance and then decision should
be taken for promotion and bonuses.
