Oil and Gas is a key primary energy resource, fulfilling about 40% of country’s energy demand. The major sectors of economy which utilize Oil & Gas are Transport, Industry, commercial buildings and agriculture. Our country is currently importing over 75% crude oil to met domestic consumption. Therefore, generating awareness among the consumers about judicious use of petroleum products is a National initiative. The daily consumers can realize that by adopting simple conservation measures they can minimize wastage of fuel in day to day life and save substantial cost.  

To promote conservation of petroleum products and environment protection in the country, MOP&NG in the year 1991 took the initiative to celebrate Oil Conservation Week (OCW) every year throughout the country. Encouraged by the tremendous success of campaign, w.e.f. the year 2004, this event is being observed as “Oil & Gas Conservation Fortnight (OGCF). With the involvement of all the Oil & Gas companies, State Govt., Transport Corporations, NGOs, this nation-wide campaign has eventually become very effective tool in creating and spreading awareness among the masses about the importance of conservation of petroleum products in the country.

During this 15 day period, a large number of activities like technical seminars, symposiums, quiz, painting competitions, mass / cycle rallies, marathons, human chain, etc. are arranged for the propagation of Oil and Gas conservation message amongst the major consuming sectors. Every year, the functions and events are held at Delhi, state Capitals, District and towns.

This year also, it is proposed to celebrate this OGCF (2015), from 16th to 31st January; with new / innovative activities connecting various target groups and common people.

PCRA invites suggestions from all citizens about the conservation activities which can result in better outreach and involvement of common consumers so that they develop greater responsibility towards Oil & Gas conservation.

Last date for sending your suggestions is 20th December, 2014.

CARS SHOULD BE MADE WITH GDI-GASOLINE DIRECT INJECTION THIS DOUBLES THE EFFICIENCY OF THE ENGINE. ETHANOL 100 INSTEAD OF PETROL LIKE BRAZIL. CARS and trucks should GDI and run a electric 10KW generator. this should be used run a electric motor. You run a single speed engine which has close to 100% efficiency. THIS TECHNOLOGY IS USED IN DIESEL ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE ENGINES FOR MORE THAN 50 YEARS. THE SAME TECHNOLOGY HAS TO BE BROUGHT TO CARS AND TRUCKS

First, the most heavy consumption of oil is by IT sector travelling the world wide. TRANSPORTATION HAS TO BE STOPPED AND MOVED TO INTERNET. - 1 TRILLION PER YEAR PEOPLE MIGRATING TO CITIES SHOULD BE STOPPED. SEVERAL TRILLION PER YEAR CARS SHOULD BE HYBRID AND SHOULD GIVE AT LEAST 50 TO 100 KMPL 1 TRILLION PER YEAR MOVE TO ETHANOL BASED ENGINES LIKE THE ONES USED IN BRAZIL STOP LPG AND MIGRATE TO INDUCTION STOVE - 1 TRILLION PER YEAR ATTACHED LPG SAVINGS PER YEAR

OGCF- I think bio diesel may best solution. Australia making bio diesel from sugar can and America making from corn. Battery operated vehicles should develop that can be easy way to replace oil and gas. Battery can recycle up to 70% after death. So it can cheaper and easy way to replace oil and gas. We should require battery booth in many places just like petrol pump and it will create huge new job and business opportunities. Also pollution level from vehicles will decrease.

Save Oil - Be Healthy. For covering short distances, use bicycle. Govt may reduce taxes on cycles and make suitable arrangements for safe parking. With public participation, authorities should encourage cycling in India as being practiced in China.

Importance to electric cars should be given. Some cities in the world like Paris have pledged to get rid of desiel cars by 2020. India should do the same for its most polluted cities like DELHI. Will help reduce OIL imports and reduce pollution.

Dr. Madhuri Sharon & Prof. Maheshwar Sharon have innovated a novel method of Conversion of Plastic to Wax, Oil, Gas & CNM. It is a perfect remedy to overcome the Plastic Waste Problem, which is a pollutant, harmful to animals & so on. Unlike plastic recycling which creates harmful by products and does not remove plastic load on this earth; this process converts plastic into degradable useful products without creating or using any harmful chemicals. Since, Municipal Corporation is health provi

3) Focused investments into battery technology to improve battery life. This will help us switch from fuel vehicles to electricity driven vehicles quicker and with no compromise in quality. Right now, high cost of battery replacement is driving users from purchasing electric vehicles. A "cars exchange scheme" can be started for people to exchange old cars (>15 years old) with electric cars.This will give initial push and get polluting cars off the road replacing them with clean cars.
