HOEC has provided an update on the ongoing dispute with Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) regarding crude oil supply from the B-80 field. The two parties have mutually agreed to refer the dispute to conciliation before a former Chief Justice of a High Court for resolution. As part of this process, the original invoice raised by HOEC on HPCL has been cancelled. HOEC has also initiated the process to dispose of the crude oil separately, suggesting the HPCL supply arrangement is no longer active in the near term. This disclosure follows an earlier filing on the same matter.
The dispute resolution via conciliation reduces near-term legal risk, but the cancellation of the HPCL invoice raises concerns about revenue recovery from the B-80 field. Until the dispute is fully resolved, investors should monitor for any financial impact on HOEC's earnings.
