The company's overseas arm, ONGC Videsh, is in advanced discussions with Venezuelan and U.S. authorities, with agreements expected to be finalized within three to six months. ONGC currently holds investments in the San Cristobal and Carabobo 1 projects, with the proposed agreement seeing ONGC operate both fields and address outstanding dividend payments.",
