History 

Oil India was established on February 18, 1959, as a privately held oil exploration business with its registered office in Duliajan, Assam. Two-thirds of the shares were initially owned by Burmah Oil Company, while the remaining three were held by the Indian government (through the Office of the President). Through this cooperative venture, two newly found sites in Naharkatiya and Moran in the Dibrugarh district were opened up for the purpose of exploration and drilling. The business went public in the spring of 1961, and later that year, the Government of India bought a 50% stake. The firm that at the time owned all of the oilfields in the Tinsukia and Dibrugarh areas was purchased by the Indian government in 1981 for 100% of the equity investment.
