Figure 3: Monthly Refinery Production (TMT) 
3.1 PSU Refineries’ production during May, 2016 was 11570.98 TMT which is 1.76% lower than the target for the month and 9.15% higher than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year. Cumulative production during April-May, 2016 was 22707.57 TMT which is 0.9% lower than the target for the period and 13.37% higher than the production during corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall of refinery production of PSU refineries are as under:
• IOCL, Paradip: Throughput is lower as secondary units are still under commissioning and stabilization.
• IOCL, Guwahati & Digboi: Lower crude availability.
• CPCL, Manali: Throughput in Manali refinery was lower than target to contain VGO. Hydro-cracker Unit was under shut down for 7 days for Reactor catalyst scooping.
• MRPL, Mangalore: Throughput restricted due to water crisis.
3.2 Production in JV refineries during May, 2016 was 1561.69 TMT which is 18.22% higher than the target for the month and 4.37% higher than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year. Cumulative production during April-May, 2016 was 3015.45 TMT which is 15.25% higher than the target for the period and 25.98% higher than the production during corresponding period of last year.
3.3 Production in private refineries during May, 2016 was 6817.40 TMT which is 9.53% lower than the target for the month and 10.39% lower than the production achieved in the corresponding month of last year. Cumulative production during April-May, 2016 was 14382.72 TMT which is 0.79% higher than the target for the period and 0.09% higher than the production during corresponding period of last year.
