- A.Oil and Natural Gas Corporation
- B.Federation of Indian Petroleum Industry
- C.Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board
- D.Confederation of Indian Industry
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Federation of Indian Petroleum Industry, commonly written as FIPI, with Informa Markets serving as the conference organiser. The event itself is held under the patronage of the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, which is the distinction a candidate should keep clear: the ministry gives patronage while FIPI organises. Option A is wrong because the Oil and Natural Gas Corporation is an exploration and production company and was not named as organiser. Option C is wrong because the regulatory board oversees downstream activities and has no organising role here. Option D is wrong because the industry chamber named in that option was not mentioned in connection with this edition. The fifth edition is expected to bring together more than 75,000 energy professionals and over 700 international exhibitors at Kolkata.
