India finds oil drilling off Vietnam a losing proposition

ONGC's overseas arm, ONGC Videsh (OVL) holds stakes in a producing gas field — Block 06.1 in the Nam Con Son basin off Vietnam's south coast — in a joint venture with TNK-BP and state explorer PetroVietnam.

Block 127 and 128 were not successful finds so what else can be done with them.. India will keep exploring with Vietnam in other blocks..

said the thankless fella who wouldn't have a country if it weren't for us.

Creation of Bangladesh is exactly the reason why people like him hate India.. For this, they got a special name in independent BD..
 
. .
As long as there are more blocks there is potential of finding oil. It was just one block, there are other companies that have found oil in the waters that belong to Vietnam, we just need to explore more.
 
. .
Last time I heard the GOI was trying to force the company to stay on, despite no oil was found, for diplomatic reasons.

that's pretty much universal standard indian procedures, keep hang in there until they go broke! Their mentality is indoctrinated just like what they behave in forums, the last to leave is the winner!

Is this para in the OP not visible to Chinese eyes ?

Officials here said India would continue to remain engaged with Hanoi, viz. continuing operations and expansion of activity in the Nam Con Son basin that OVL was awarded as a goodwill gesture to India, which was allowed to sell part of the stake to other oil producers when it did not have enough foreign exchange to pay for all the three blocks.

I mean seriously is it not visible to you guys?
 
. .
China please exercise restraint in South Sea, you are disturbing our and Vietnam's oil exploration by picking up unnecessary fight with Philippines over some delusional fake claims.. It would work best for you to simply back off..

:lol: -- See now I learnt the art of warnings!!

I doubt how much deep sea drilling experience that the indians have! How good are their old rigs? vietcongs are crazy, distributing slices of our pizza to everyone in the world even though some of the people whom vietcongs have invited have a mouth of broken teeth!

NO!!! I want to see india come challenge us in the South China Sea so we can finally unleash some of our 3000+ nuclear warheads in a total war between China and india.

Liberation of the Naxals, northeast, Sikhs, Muslims and Tamils must wait until later then....

don't forget to wipe the brown stuff, once you're done :tup:

Abhi, buddy whats the matter with you, you got your feelin hurt ?

The point is India will not face China. I would be surprised to see India escalating the situation. U.S will only work the nations up with rhetoric, thats all. Indians don't want to be left alone fending for themselves. Smart move indeed.

I was hoping to see some action by the Indians in SCS, however as usual its all talk and nothin to show for ( pop corns, well you get the point). U.S geological survey is usually pretty good in their estimates, Indians are not known for the same.

India bravely came to the disputed zone in SCS(east sea), and China only dare to sit and watch......but No oil oil there, then time to go home after pitting on China's face :P

LOL indians are only brave compared to Vietnamese :lol:

Now it's time for China to come to Vietnam's shallow water coastline and take the oil from right under Vietnam's nose.
