appointment
c. Brief profile Shri Bhaskar Chowdary Nettem is a seasoned energy sector leader with more than three decades of
distinguished service in ONGC, spanning offshore and onshore oil and gas operations, strategic business
development, project execution, international upstream exposure, and joint venture leadership. A Mechanical
Engineer by qualification, he began his career in 1991 at ONGC’s flagship Mumbai High Offshore Oilfield,
where he built a strong foundation in complex offshore operations and production management.
To complement his technical grounding with commercial and strategic perspective, Shri Nettem earned a
master’s degree in international business in 2006. His early leadership assignments included feasibility studies
for greenfield refinery projects at Kakinada and Barmer, contributing to the strategic groundwork for ONGC’s
downstream entry. He later played a key role in the joint venture associated with commencement of production
from the prolific Mangala oilfields in Rajasthan and the commissioning of the world’s longest heated crude oil
pipeline from Barmer to Bhogat.
During his tenure with ONGC Videsh Limited, he gained valuable international exposure across deepwater
oilfield operations, business development, and field development planning. This global experience
strengthened his ability to evaluate opportunities, manage multidisciplinary interfaces, and lead complex
upstream initiatives across diverse operating, commercial, and regulatory environments.
As Asset Manager of ONGC’s Assam Asset at Nazira, Shri Nettem led one of the Company’s most
operationally challenging onshore assets. He provided focused leadership for sustaining and enhancing
production from mature fields, while managing a large and diverse workforce in an ecologically sensitive region.
His approach combined operational discipline, stakeholder engagement, environmental responsibility, and
workforce alignment.
Subsequently, Shri Nettem brought his cross-functional expertise and strategic leadership to Mumbai High
Asset, ONGC’s most critical and mature offshore producing asset. In an environment marked by ageing
reservoirs, legacy infrastructure, redevelopment requirements, and demanding production expectations, he
guided initiatives aimed at strengthening production performance, asset integrity, project execution, field
redevelopment, and HSE excellence.
In addition to his leadership roles within ONGC, Shri Nettem serves as Chairman of IGGL, a joint venture of
five public sector undertakings entrusted with developing the gas pipeline network in the North East. This
initiative is aligned with the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s Act East Policy and the One Nation One Gas Grid Mission
and is expected to support deeper city gas distribution penetration while enhancing the share of natural gas in
India’s energy basket.
Shri Bhaskar Chowdary Nettem’s professional journey reflects a distinctive combination of operational
excellence, strategic foresight, commercial understanding, technological orientation, and people-centric
leadership. His sustained contribution to ONGC’s mission and to India’s energy security positions him as a
highly accomplished leader with the experience, perspective, and credibility required for senior executive and
board-level responsibilities.
