ISPRL is Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Oil Industry Development Board (OIDB) under Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas. Key Facts. The MoU mandates ADNOC to store crude oil at Padur Strategic Petroleum Reserve which has storage capacity 2.5 million-tonne (~17 million barrels) capacity for emergency needs. This will take the strategic reserve capacity to 15.33 million tons. During official visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to UAE in February 2018, ISPRL and ADNOC had signed agreement under which ADNOC will store about 5.86 million barrels of crude oil in India’s SPR facility at Mangalore at its own cost.

The strategic fuel or oil reserve facilities are used for emergency reasons. The Indian Strategic Petroleum Reserve has a total fuel store of total 5 MMT (million metric .

The Indian Strategic Petroleum Reserve (ISPR) is an emergency fuel store of total 5 MMT (million metric tons) or 36.92 MM bbl of strategic crude oil enough to provide 10 days of consumption which are maintained by the Indian Strategic Petroleum Reserves Limited. Strategic crude oil storages are at 3 underground locations in Mangalore, Visakhapatnam and Padur(nr Udupi). Government’s this move aims at boosting India’s energy security by ensuring a strategic storage flow in for crude oil, from a government firm in Abu Dhabi for meeting unexpected future exigencies. The construction and maintenance the strategic petroleum reserves (SPR) is given to the Indian Strategic Petroleum Reserves Ltd (ISPRL), a special purpose vehicle of the Oil Industry Development Board, a statutory body created for India’s energy security. ISRPL is building the underground rock caverns at Visakhapatnam with capacity of 1.33 MT of oil, at Mangaluru (1.5 MT) and at Padur (2.5 MT).

Strategic Petroleum Reserves – In a simple language, a strategic petroleum reserve is a place where a large amount of oil can be stored for future use as the government has to stay prepared with emergency stores of crude oil to tide over severe supply shocks of this critical fuel.

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) is the world's largest supply of emergency crude oil. The federally-owned oil stocks are stored in huge underground salt caverns along the coastline of the Gulf of Mexico. This will take the strategic reserve capacity to 15.33 million tons. During official visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to UAE in February 2018, ISPRL and ADNOC had signed agreement under which ADNOC will store about 5.86 million barrels of crude oil in India’s SPR facility at Mangalore at its own cost. The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) is an emergency fuel storage of petroleum maintained underground in Louisiana and Texas by the United States Department of Energy (DOE). It is the largest emergency supply in the world, with the capacity to hold up to 727 million barrels (115,600,000 m 3). The United States started the petroleum reserve in 1975 after oil supplies were interrupted during The Indian Strategic Petroleum Reserve (ISPR) is an emergency fuel store of total 5 MMT (million metric tons) or 36.92 MM bbl of strategic crude oil enough to provide 10 days of consumption which are maintained by the Indian Strategic Petroleum Reserves Limited.

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), the world's largest supply of emergency crude oil, was established primarily to reduce the impact of disruptions in supplies of petroleum products and to carry out obligations of the United States under the international energy program. Oil can be pumped from the Reserve at a maximum rate of 4.4 million barrels per day for up to 90 days, then the drawdown rate begins to decline as storage caverns are emptied. At 1 million barrels per day, the Reserve can release oil into the market continuously for nearly a year-and-a-half. Need for strategic oil reserves: In 1990, as the Gulf war engulfed West Asia, India was in the throes of a major energy crisis. By all accounts India’s oil reserves at the time were adequate for only three days. While India managed to avert the crisis then, the threat of energy disruption continues to present a real danger even today. President Donald Trump on Friday said he asked the U.S. Department of Energy to purchase crude oil for the strategic petroleum reserve in an effort to support the battered sector amid a price war Strategic Petroleum Reserves – In a simple language, a strategic petroleum reserve is a place where a large amount of oil can be stored for future use as the government has to stay prepared with emergency stores of crude oil to tide over severe supply shocks of this critical fuel. Strategic reserves are not counted in a country's proven oil reserves, which must be available for production. China holds the world's second-largest reserve. Its target is to hold 511 million barrels.
