ADIPEC sets new industry benchmarkMore visitors, technical papers, than ever before at ADIPEC 2012

ADIPEC is nearly over and this years edition has been the busiest ever. Total visitor numbers at 2pm on day three were up 18 per cent on the previous show. Ali Al Jarwan, ADIPEC 2012 conference chairman, said: The show has been an enormous

success, once again and it is growing every year. It could not happen at this level without the wonderful support from all the sponsors, speakers, delegates and visitors. Mr Al Jarwan said: The relationship we share with our sponsors, and the vast levels of

Next years ADIPEC is already guaranteed to be as exciting an event as the 2012 edition, with all 13 national pavilions already confirmed for 2013, and more than 60% of the indoor exhibition space which comprises a total of 38,000 metres already sold by the middle of day three of the show. Exhibitors are taking bigger stands, and the team behind the event is looking forward to welcoming you to the ADIPEC 2013 sales stand on the concourse to reserve some of the already-limited space for next year. Next year, the ADIPEC conference will focus on gas, but it remains a total oil and gas event.

ADNOC received Best Trade Stand award at ADIPEC 2012, in recognition of its unique design, intellectual content and visitor access. Melville Middle East, stand design and construction experts, conceived the stand,

in collaboration with ADNOC management.

It was developed through a very close partnership, initially from a design director in the United States and our team who worked in close collaboration with Ali Al-Jarwan,

ADMA-OPCO CEO , Mohammed Al-Shamma, Vice president public relations, ADMA-OPCO and other senior ADNOC Group representatives, said Dmitry Melnikov, senior business development manager, Melville Middle East.

Judged the winner by visiting international media, the double-storey ADNOC stands ground floor mixes interactive components such as digital audio-visual displays with Islamic-inspired imagery such as the Arabic mashrabiya pattern. The upper floor has a private meeting area designed as a traditional Arabic majlis.

Other notable mentions within the top stand designs included the multi-level TOTAL stand, which also merged modern and traditional elements, with the top level also featuring Arabic elements.

ADIPEC new benchmark

region and ADIPEC is intrinsic to the events success and growth. Over and above the platinum sponsors which ensure ADIPEC goes from strength to strength, Al Jarwan stressed the importance of all of the events sponsors. Each and every one of them plays a massively important role. Without their support, ADIPEC simply would not happen. They also invest heavily in the show and region in terms of human capital. Al Jawan also highlighted the excellent work of the SPE-organised conference, saying that his expectations had been exceeded. The feedback I have had has been enormously positive. The plenary sessions set the scene with great energy and we were lucky to have ten of the industrys leading players speaking. The quality of the technical presentations has been higher than ever before. There was

great knowledge, great passion and genuine knowledge transfer taking place. He said there were four strong themes that were prevalent throughout the conference stream: sustainability; innovation; technology and human capital. Before the conference, I suggested this event would see a step change in the industry, and I believe we have seen that. The quality has been so high, there is a strong air of co-operation amongst everyone here and this reflects the integration between the exhibition and conference. He said the ADIPEC 2012 conference has created a very high benchmark for the industry. We have achieved success beyond our expectations, and this is due to the fantastic collaboration between ADNOC, dmg::events, the SPE and ADNEC.

Egyptian firm Sahara Petroleum Services (SAPESCO) is stepping up its activities in the Gulf and has used ADIPEC to showcase its wide range of multi-discipline services to the oil and gas industry.

This is our first exhibition in the Gulf and we want to focus more on onshore and offshore here in this region, said Khaled Aboud, Business Unit President SOS.

The Gulf market needs new players, more players and new construction.

SAPESCO is already active with ARAMCO and in Kurdistan.

SAPESCO provides a wealth of cutting edge solutions and for 30 years has supplied equipment, personnel and services that support drilling, exploration and production companies.

Whatever is required we provide, said Aboud.

Turning to SAPESCOs base, Aboud said the transition since the Arab spring had caused difficulties for the industry there. Theres a lot to be done in Egypt, he said. The transition period has been difficult.

He said this was partly due to the reaction of some countries ranging from conservative to helpful.

He said much business had stalled because Egypt is considered by many to

be in a stage of transition. There is big business

in Egypt and everything will be resolved eventually. Its just that there is a problem at the moment.

Ahmed Sabry, SAPESCO Business Development Manager, said the stability of the Gulf was enticing.

The countries we mainly operate in were hit by political disturbances. Were keen to move into areas that are more stable. The Gulf is hungry for high quality services.

Egypt is still having difficulties. It will improve, of course. But at the moment there its like the oil crisis of the eighties. OK, prices are back up but in Egypt they are not making much money any more.

Were expanding in the Gulf with our industrial, pipeline and processing services along with our offshore services.

With some US$120 billion worth of Canadian oil and gas projects either announced or in application during the next ten years, the Canadian government needs to attract substantial investment to support its national energy sector.

Its significant activity, and obviously in a region where we can generate substantial amounts of capital, we still cant generate capital appropriate to that build-out, the Honourable Cal Dallas, Canadas Minister of International and Intergovernmental Relations, told ADIPEC News in an exclusive interview on the events sidelines.

Thats a part of the

reason why were here [at ADIPEC]: to get the message out about the opportunities this represents for investors that are in this region, he added.

The Ministers visit involves meeting with the

Canadian Ambassador to the UAE, Arif Lalani: This provides a chance for me to learn more about his perspective on some of the opportunities he has already identified that exist here.

Alberta companies

have operated in this region for many years, and this is an opportunity for me to reinforce for the Ambassador that Alberta is open for business and were keen to facilitate [foreign involvement], in attracting

new business to Alberta in addition to those working here, said Minister Dallas.

As part of its participation in ADIPEC, the Canadian delegation is also hosting a series of meetings through its

Export Development Canada programme, a series of procurement seminars involving Canadian and locally-based companies, including ADGAS, Qatar Petroleum, Saudi Aramco, NPCC and Bahrain Petroleum Company (BAPCO).

Shows of this scale in this region give us the opportunity to hold a number of meetings over a short period of time, that would be very difficult to achieve if trying to do this outside of the envelope of the show, said Minister Dallas.

Whether thats [meeting] with industry players or those from a political perspective, this makes the show a very high value propositionits a great thing for us.

From Hamriyah to the world

KTL Offshore was established in Singapore 100 years ago. The company has now grown to be one of the largest wire rope and rigging suppliers in the world. KTL Global Ltd has established the largest dedicated rigging facility in the Middle East in the Hamriyah Free Zone in the UAE.

The 10,000 square metre facilty is the most sophisticated in the region, and has been purpose-built to target the heavy lift and offshore construction industries in the Middle Easts booming oil and gas market.

KTLs regional sales manager, Mr. Andrea Barattieri, says KTL does not look on ADIPEC as an opportunity to sell its products and services. For us, ADIPEC is about marketing, branding and the chance to point out our expertise. We want to let people know about the high standards at KTL, and how we do things differently, he said

This will be KTLs second ADIPEC, after setting up in Hamriyah FZ in March 2010. The company also has one of the largest wire rope, rigging and mooring facilities in the world, a 28,000 square metre facility in Singapore.

Barattieri described KTLs stand in the new Offshore and Marine Hall, in the Outdoor section of the event: We are not showing any of our bigger products, purely from a logistical, practical and cost point of view. We will be showing a film of our yard, and our expertise, but the show for us is about meeting

and talking to people. Visitors who are more

interested in what we do and our product range are more than welcome to come and visit our yard in Hamriyah, where we can give them demonstrations and a tour. We will also be showing some of our smaller products. Our exclusive wire rope supplier, Redaelli, of Italy, will also be attending.

Business is booming for the company. The sales manager said: We have recently secured a couple of big deals in Brazil, with Petrobras. Our Hamriyah base serves many regions of the world. Although the Middle East is clearly a key market for us, from the UAE we serve India, the Caspian, Europe and the Americas. We are doing very well. We opened in 2010, and made profit in the first year. We are seeing strong growth in Brazil, and more locally, in Saudi Arabia, as well as in the Caspian.

We supply to a number of big projects, but there will only be a few of those each year. We compete with the smaller local players on small to medium contracts here and across the region, but they cant compete with us on the bigger projects. Having said that, were not here to steal business from anyone, we just want to do what we do, and do it well.

Our customers include many larger players, but on a day-to-day basis, our major customers are offshore contractors, such as Lamprell (the rig manufacturing neighbour in Hamriyah), McDermott, NPCC, Saipem and Seatrax.

Gerald Schotman, executive VP, innovation, and R&D chief technology officer, Royal Dutch Shell, agrees that extracting hydrocarbons is getting more challenging across the Middle East as older fields mature. Yet he remains optimistic about the opportunity to extract far more oil from existing fields than ever thought possible.

In the Middle East, extraction of hydrocarbons faces three challenges that underpin the critical role of enhanced oil recovery (EOR). Firstly, the number of mature oil fields approaching advanced stages of secondary recovery, with steadily declining production rates.

Secondly, the sometimes heavy nature of oil left is resistant to traditional means of recovery.

Thirdly, resources in the Middle East are locked in

a whole range of different geologies; naturally fractured reservoirs, for example; which create difficulties in recovery.

Oman is an example of this. Yet it seizes some of the challenges that all countries in the region will eventually face, whether in EOR or other areas.

Take, for instance, Harweel. Shell and Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) recently began producing from Phase II of Omans Harweel field; one of the worlds largest EOR projects. Achieving this wasnt easy, as the fields hydrocarbons contain high levels of hydrogen sulphide and carbon dioxide. The partners turned the challenge into a solution by separating these impurities from the produced gas, then injecting them back into the formation. The gas blends with the oil so it flows more freely to the surface.

Other initiatives

around the world are also contributing to Shells growing portfolio of effective EOR technologies, and even extending the benefits further down the value chain.

For example, Shell is exploring ways to improve the economics and environmental footprint of CO2-based gas-injection EOR initiatives by sourcing the CO2 from anthropogenic or industrial-type activities and segregating it in the EOR reservoir in conjunction with the recovery process.

At Canadas Peace River complex, steam-injection projects have been used not only to enhance recovery, but also to apply and improve

surveillance technologies that enable Shell to optimise development well types, locations and spacing. These technologies have already been used in Oman.

Principally, every field has opportunities for EOR and thats why we take a life-cycle approach when developing fields. Its key to understanding what works best, which makes experience across the full slate of EOR techniques so crucial. The quest for innovative solutions to re-energise oil fields must continue in order to meet the worlds growing energy demand. Those who can excel and lead in EOR are well-positioned to play a leading role in the energy landscape of the future.

In Omans Marmul field, PDO, with Shells support, has begun one of the first and largest full-scale applications of polymer flooding outside China. The initiative uses a commercially-available polymer to increase the injected waters viscosity so it can push out the oil. New efforts to expand polymer flooding to the rest of the field are being accelerated, and opportunities to further improve the gains from this process are being explored. Already approved

for Marmul is an alkaline surfactant polymer (ASP) EOR pilot project. This involves injecting an alkali and surfactant into the oil reservoir, creating soaps that form an emulsion with the oil that can be swept out of the formation with polymer flooding.

As a result of this project on top of waterflood improvements implemented previously, Marmul has reached the highest-ever production levels in its 31-year history, said Schotman.

Saudi Arabia is pushing ahead with a major project to develop the worlds fifth largest oilfield, which will pump nearly 900,000 barrels per day of heavy crude and 90 million cubic feet per day of sour gas, according to the fields operators.

State-owned Saudi Aramco said its 2011 activities focused on the development of Manifa field, adding that it had completed nearly 97 per cent of offshore construction, including all platform decks, subsea pipelines for crude oil gathering and water injection, and subsea power and communication cables.

Construction of the central oil and gas processing facility was nearly three-quarters complete by year-end and all major equipment has been installed, Aramco said in its 2011 annual report,

distributed at ADIPEC.It said all 27 man-made

islands and the main and lateral causeways for Manifa were also completed. The islands were constructed to host shallow-water wells, which are more cost effective than offshore rigs, the report said.

Aramco, the worlds largest oil producing firm, said it had conducted extensive engineering and ecological assessments to ensure that the marine ecosystem would not be adversely affected by the development.

When the development is finished in June 2013, it will include 41 kilometres of causeways, three kilometres of bridges, 27 drilling islands, 13 offshore platforms, 15 onshore drill sites, water supply wells, injection facilities, multiple pipelines and a 420 megawatt heat and electricity plant, it said.

By the time it is fully operational in December

2014, the Manifa Field is expected to produce 900,000 bpd of Arabian Heavy crude oil, 90 million scfd of sour gas, and 65,000 bpd of hydrocarbon condensate to sustain oil and gas

production from both new and existing fields. Saudi Aramco has continued work on its offshore and onshore Maintain Potential programmes.

It said that as part of the onshore project, 104 new oil and water wells

were completed, adding nearly 413,000 bpd of oil production capacity.

Manifas project is part of a programme to lift the world oil superpowers crude output capacity to 12.5 million bpd from

around 11 million bpd currently to maintain its position as the worlds dominant oil supplier.

The project has already prompted plans to build two large refineries with a combined output capacity of 800,000 bpd

to handle heavy crude.The report said the

project involves the second largest single crude increment in the companys history after its Khurais project, which will boost capacity to 1.2 million bpd.

With its estimated 10 billion barrels of crude reserves, Manifa can contribute to crucial energy concerns, according to the report.

First, it addresses the supply-demand equation, producing more petroleum to address world energy needs; that increased capacity has obvious importance as a source of downstream products such as gasoline, jet fuel and motor oil, which literally keep economies and people on the move.

Second, it addresses the lack of refining capacity at the heart of the energy crisis because Aramco also plans to build new refineries to handle heavy oil, the report said.

Discovered on a wildcat drilling venture in late September 1957 with the spudding in of Manifa Well No1, Manifa was the ninth field discovered by Aramco, and the second discovered in Saudi coastal waters.

It was originally developed with eight wells and designed to process dry crude, which does not contain any formation water with its inherent salt content.

Drilling stopped in 1960 and ultimately Manifa was mothballed in 1985, or put on indefinite hiatus, because of the heaviness of its crude.

Heavy crude is more difficult and expensive to refine and is less in demand than lighter crudes. Crude oil ranges in grade from very light (high in gasoline content) to very heavy (high in residual oils); lighter crudes are sweet, meaning they are low in sulphur and flow easily, and heavy crudes are high in sulphur.

Oil powerhouse Saudi Arabia says worlds fifth largest field ready in 2014In its 2011 annual report, Saudi Aramco gives a progress update on the giant Manifa field

By the time it is fully operational in December 2014, the Manifa Field is expected to produce 900,000 bpd of Arabian Heavy crude oil, 90 million scfd of sour gas, and 65,000 bpd of hydrocarbon condensate.

Speedy-ESNAAD win ZADCO contract

The partnership between ADNOC subsidiary, ESNAAD and oil and gas equipment provider, Speedy International, has been awarded a US$55 million contract by ZADCO.

Under the terms of the contract, UK headquartered Speedy will provide logistics and equipment support to ESNAAD in its operations on ZADCOs massive Zakum field expansion project, which is set to boost its oil production to 750,000 bpd.

Speedy provides asset management solutions, including short-term rentals or long-term lease of equipment for the oil and gas sector, including pipelines, utilities, industrial, construction and infrastructure markets.

Our services are spreading across the ADNOC group, and

were already looking at taking the relationship with them outside the UAE too, said Carter, suggesting they may look to expand into Kazakhstan in the coming years.

The deal with ZADCO is among a number of initiatives Speedy has embarked on with the ADNOC group of companies. It also plans to sign a deal with a refinery in Jebel Ali in the months ahead.

Speedy has been increasing its focus on the Middle East over the last two years, having invested some AED 232 million ($63 million) in the region, as part of its expansion in a number of markets. Its first opening in the region was in the UAE in 2010, followed by Oman six months later, then Egypt, followed by Qatar and Saudi Arabia.

GL Survey: Iraq can dominate energy

Iraq could develop its oil and gas infrastructure quickly enough to dominate Middle Eastern energy output within 18 years, according to a poll of industry professionals at the ADIPEC Exhibition and Conference in Abu Dhabi.

Some 65 per cent of participants said Iraq, already a key oil producer in the Middle East, has the potential to develop its energy infrastructure at such a pace that it will dominate the regions output by 2030. By contrast, 35 per cent of participants thought that inadequate facilities, a disadvantaged economy and an under-developed regulatory framework - among other issues - could prevent the country from

expanding its oil and gas footprint at speed.

The Industry Snapshot Poll was conducted on the third day of ADIPEC by global independent technical advisor to the oil and gas sector GL Noble Denton. Senior professionals from across the industry also took part in the poll online.

A study published by the International Energy Agency last month suggests that Iraq has the potential to reshape the

global energy industry in the near future. According to the report, an increase in oil exports could add a cumulative US$5 trillion to the countrys economy over the next two decades; a number that would grow its gross domestic product five-fold.

Moss Daemi, GL Noble Dentons EVP for the Middle East and Africa, said: Iraqs oil and gas industry shows huge promise, but the country has some major infrastructure challenges to overcome if it is to realise its potential. The result of this poll shows that industry professionals are extremely optimistic that the country will be able to tackle those issues.

With the support of experienced international and regional players, there is every possibility

that Iraqs oil and gas industry can develop a significant infrastructure in a short period of time.

This was the last of three Industry Snapshot Polls to be conducted by GL Denton during ADIPEC. Delegates were also asked if the UAE will produce enough gas to be energy-self sufficient by 2030, and whether the country is investing enough money in maintaining the integrity of its assets.

Flameproof motor range with new frame sizesLatin American firm delivers motor safety to its clients

Brazilian electric motor manufacturer WEG has added three new frame sizes to its flameproof motors range. The company, which recently celebrates its 50th anniversary, announced that innovations adopted in the design of its W22X flameproof motors include a tube array for optimising through draught cooling. This provides air ducts with both axial and radial flowpaths to maximise cooling of the rotor,

stator and critical components such as the bearings. It is allied with an aerodynamic fan and fan cover, designed for efficient air flow generation whilst minimising the noise output, a spokesman said.

The design of the junction box has been re-thought so that it includes internal mounting bolts for protection against impact and environmental damage and prevents the accumulation of water whilst providing generous space for easy connections. There are multiple options available for the junction box while a current transformer, surge

arrestor or capacitors can be fitted to the W22X.

The three new frame sizes are all available in 2, 4, 6 and 8 pole versions with medium and high voltage options and a range of maximum outputs from 500kW to 2800kW. The whole W22X range is based on a welded steel construction and includes integral solid feet so that vibration is kept to an absolute minimum, complementing the low noise outputs.

The W22X range WEG has the capability to

provide optimal explosion-protected solutions for virtually all situations, from gas pipelines in the Arctic to the hottest spots of the Arabian desert (from -55C up to +60C), offering unmatched reliability, world-class certification, reduced costs of operation and assured safety, said the spokesman.

Produced in Maia Portugal, WEGs Centre of Excellence for the manufacture and design of MV and HV explosion proof induction motors, the W22X is a global range that meets worldwide standards. It is certified to ATEX and IECEx, including Ex d(e) I Mb, Ex d(e) IIB T4 Gb, Ex d(e) IIC T4 Gb

Q: What was the Siemens involvement in the Habshan-Fujairah oil pipeline project?

A: Siemens was involved in this strategically important project from the very beginning, working in harmony with a series of other contractors on a tight timescale to deliver an alternative option to shipping crude oil through the Strait of Hormuz.

The Siemens contribution to the project was to supply the entire control and automation system of the pipeline its brain, if you like. For this, we had to develop a relatively complex system, enlisting the assistance of a team from Europe to work with our local experts in order to design, finalise and implement a suitably comprehensive solution.

Essentially, the Siemens control and automation system at the Habshan-Fujairah facility is designed to ensure that the pipeline, under normal operation, can be accurately managed from a central location, including measuring and controlling the flow of oil, shifting the lines, monitoring and controlling different stations and streams, and supervising other variables fundamental to the reliable day-to-day operation of the pipeline.

Within the system there is also a series of different modules and platforms that allow for operation under alternative conditions, for instance in the case of an emergency. Any solution for the automation and control of critical infrastructure like this needs to be robust, and in a four-station pipeline thats almost 400 kilometre

long, you cant compromise on safety and reliability, especially when theres a workforce involved.

Q: What are the main benefits to an automated control system like this?

A: Firstly, it enables the pipeline to run safely and reliably. Safety is paramount, and our automation and control system is designed to protect the pipeline and its operation in a comprehensive range of scenarios. It also reduces the requirement to have a workforce stationed in the field - with obvious safety implications in addition to lowering the potential for unreliable and sometimes time-intensive communications.

Secondly, a system like this introduces enhanced efficiency. With accurate, real-time monitoring comes the ability to swiftly react to requirement changes for various aspects of the pipeline, allowing operators to maintain the facility at optimum efficiency under any conditions.

Q: The pipeline is intended to be customer operated what level of training is involved?

A: The automation system for the Habshan-Fujairah oil pipeline has been designed to allow the end-user to take over the operation and control of the pipeline. Its important that the team is familiar with both the day-to-day running of the system and also its operation in a wide range of other scenarios. Naturally this requires extensive training of the customers workforce.

A comprehensive

Siemens-designed training program has already been implemented, bringing to the end-user the knowledge and expertise required to understand and run the system without our assistance. With several modules of the program already delivered our teams will continue to work together onsite to ensure that the customer is in possession of all the resources required for the safe, reliable and efficient operation of the pipeline.

Q: Was it an off-the-shelf product, or tailored to the customer?

A: Our solution for the automation system for the Habshan-Fujairah oil pipeline was very much tailored to the specific requirements of the customer. Siemens has broad experience in providing these types of solutions, having successfully designed and implemented similar projects in Europe, and as such some platforms can be called in to form a foundation for certain aspects of the system. But every control system needs to embrace the specific requirements of that particular operation, which necessitates an extensive amount of customization, drawing on the knowledge and expertise of our global teams.

Systems of this nature also undergo a significant amount of development and testing, during which adjustments and enhancements can be made. Its important also that they are developed in such a way that they are able

to be easily integrated with other Siemens solutions.

Q: How does Siemens future-proof a solution like this?

A: Once you install an automation and control system of this nature, and go to commercial operation, there will always be requirements for amendments, adjustments and enhancements. Flexibility is therefore crucial, and the platforms are designed to allow

the implementation of modernization programmes and technical upgrades as and when the customer requires, with our service and maintenance teams capable of providing these for the lifecycle of the pipeline.

Siemens recently signed a three-year contract for the service and maintenance of the pipelines automation and control system, and its of obvious benefit that the authority responsible for the original design

and implementation is also responsible for its continued safe operation.

A strict consideration for original equipment manufacturer (OEM) also means that, as the builder of the system, we are able to supply the customer with hardware and software solutions that meet the same exacting standards as the original design, allowing us to adjust and improve the system reliably to future requirements whatever they may be.

Focus industries is showcasing its noOozzle 3D simulation software for nozzle design at ADIPEC 2012. The company claims NoOozzle is the first virtual real time 3D simulation software for deluge fire fighting. Company owner, Santo Petranto, said: Users can quickly and easily design a deluge sprinkler system and see it work virtually in 3D without needing to carry out full scale tests.

In a few clicks, users can see the 3D deluge system operating by configuring parameters as they are on site or target dimensions (ground, wall, ceiling,

horizontal and vertical), the distance and type of nozzles with respect to the target, the pressure available, wind speed and the quantity of water to project against the target according to the risk.

We want to promote this software that will utterly change the way surveys are led

today, said Petranto. NoOozzle makes visible in a scientific way what has never been seen

until today when a fire protection system is being installed. We are also showcasing our range of nozzles designed for the risks threatening the oil and gas industry. We have a screen on the stand to present case studies with the simulator, using balloons to represent raindrops, he said.

The company is also looking for a partner to offer its products in the Middle East.

The Gulfs producers face a new call on their production as domestic demand ramps up. Many Middle East countries are meeting domestic energy demand by becoming gas importers and making their gas markets more attractive to investment by reducing subsidies on consumer energy prices.

Kuwait has been importing LNG since 2009, with Dubai following suit in 2010. Bahrain is poised to import LNG shortly, while Saudi Arabia could join their ranks in a few years time. Abu Dhabi imports

gas via the Dolphin pipeline from Qatar. Even Iran, which holds the worlds largest gas reserves, is a net gas importer at present, due to the inflow of pipeline gas from Turkmenistan.

The principal reason for growth in gas imports is to satisfy energy demand in the regions fast-expanding economies, although desire to reduce the use of oil as a power-generation feedstock, both for cost and environmental reasons, plays a part.

Demand for gas from the power sector is far outpacing supply. This will continue as governments

will need to invest heavily in power generation expansion to meet growing demand - and most of that new capacity is going to be gas-fired, says Hakim Darbouche, a research fellow at the Oxford Institute of Energy Studies.

More than 40 per cent of gas produced in the Middle East is already used for power generation some 450 million cm a day, according to consultancy FACTS Global Energy. Gas consumption for power production in the region is expected to increase by around 5 per cent a year until 2030.

Meeting that increased demand will require countries to increase imports, while maximising domestic gas production. This means increasing reliance on LNG, as most countries have few options open to expand pipeline imports.

Qatars North Field currently supplies gas to the UAE at relatively low cost via the Dolphin pipeline, which runs offshore from Ras Laffan in Qatar to Taweelah in Abu Dhabi, with capacity of around 73 million cm/d.

However, Qatar is unlikely to export much more gas via that route and, if it did, it would almost certainly seek to charge prices similar to its much more expensive LNG exports, regional observers say.

Regional gas maRkets analysis

The Middle Easts new gas consumersDemand for gas from the power sector is far outstripping supply. James Gavin reports.

gas consumption in the mena region grew by almost 90 per cent between 2000 and 2010 to total 448 billion cubic metres (cm), according to data from BP and Cedigaz.

Saudi Arabia will lead Gulf LNG importers, if it decides to switch course from its current practice of relying on cheap domestic oil as a power feedstock. More than half the countrys total energy consumption comes from oil at present, with direct oil burning comprising more than 35 per cent of the power generating mix.

Siamak Adibi of FACTS Global Energy notes that state-run Saudi Aramco has tended to compare the cost of imported gas and LNG against the production cost of its own crude, rather than comparing it with the much larger revenue it could obtain for that crude if it were sold as exports. That has made LNG look like a relatively expensive option.

However, a change could come if the Kingdom does not want to dramatically increase the amount of oil it burns to meet soaring domestic demand. If the Saudi view changes, the Kingdom will need to rely more heavily on gas. FACTS estimates Saudi Arabia could

need gas imports of 2 billion cf/d after 2020.

Such a change would be all the more remarkable because Saudi Arabia is estimated to have the worlds fifth-largest proved gas reserves around 288 trillion cf. However, more than half of those reserves are associated gas and so tied to crude production. Around three-quarters of the remainder is either sour or tight gas, according to the US Energy Information Administration. That leaves only around 700 million to 800 million cm of gas that can be developed easily. This gas has been allocated for use in either domestic industry or for desalination.

In Saudi Arabia and the rest of the region, the race is now on to bring reserves once deemed too expensive to bother with in to production.

Countries with gas reserves that are relatively difficult and costly to develop be they deep offshore, tight, shale, or contaminated by high-sulphur content are now turning to these resources to ramp up domestic supply, Darbouche says.

It is unlikely we will see huge pipeline gas growth in the Gulf, mainly because the most likely supplier, Qatar, plans to use its gas for other purposes, said David Ledesma, an independent energy consultant.

Iraqs gas sector may provide potential for future pipeline supply to the Gulf, but any surplus there would probably be needed domestically. Irans frosty relationship with many of its neighbours in the Middle East, as well as its own growing gas needs, mean pipeline exports are not on its agenda.

Egypt, another significant gas producer, has been exporting some of its gas by pipeline to Israel and Jordan. But the heavy investment in exploration in the Mediterranean to supplement Egypts existing reserves is being made primarily to cater to its own growing domestic gas demand.

Clearly, LNG imports will be central to gas provision across much of the Middle East, particularly the Gulf.

Bahrain, which faces a

severe energy shortage, will award the contract to build its first LNG terminal by year-end. The project, which could cost up to US$1 billion, should be operational by 2015. The government said it had been in talks with Gazprom to secure 400 million cubic feet a day (cfd) of gas as LNG, adding it would use spot LNG purchases if a deal could not be struck.

Unconventional

The UAE, Oman, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia all possess significant unconventional gas reserves. In North Africa, Algeria has already started shale-gas exploration, and Libya will turn to its unconventional gas reserves before long, analysts say.

However, such reserves are technically challenging and expensive to exploit. The planned development of the Shah sour gasfield, onshore Abu Dhabi, is expected to cost US$10 billion. Due on stream by late 2014, the project will produce 500 million cf/d of clean gas, plus volumes of condensates, natural gas liquids and sulphur, operator

Al Hosn Gas, a joint venture of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) and Occidental Petroleum, said.

Meanwhile, Oman is in talks with BP to exploit its Khazzan tight-gas reserves, which could yield up to 150

trillion cf. BP said it will make a final investment decision, of up to US$15 billion, in February 2013.

Attracting investment is crucial for countries such as Oman, if it is to keep up with gas demand. Oman has neither filled its LNG export capacity nor met growing domestic demand, making investment in new projects vital.

However, Oman is one of several countries where local buyers are used to paying very little for their gas. This creates worry among potential investors over the ease with which they can recoup their

investments, especially those made in more expensive, unconventional developments. Bob Dudley, BPs chief executive, said in June that high costs could scupper the Oman project if a gas price

could not be agreed.A fundamental issue

for many Middle Eastern countries is that, although there is rising gas demand, domestic gas prices are substantially below the marginal cost of new gas or the price that can be achieved for LNG exports, said Ledesma.

The threat low prices pose to investment in domestic production, as well as the need to pay more for LNG imports in the future, has pushed most countries to look at their pricing structures. While most of the regions governments recognise the need to cut fuel

subsidies, they face political challenges in implementing them. Inflicting big energy price rises on citizens does not go down well, as the Nigerian government found out earlier this year, when it had to scale back

the pace of fuel subsidy cuts following rioting.

Iran has put in place the Gulf regions most advanced gas-price reform programme. However, there are signs that

as international sanctions bite, reform is slowing.

Bahrain, which relies on natural gas to meet 85% of its domestic electricity demand, has also removed part of its subsidy, raising the price of gas in early 2012. The cost for its main industrial consumer, Aluminium Bahrain, increased to $2.25 per million Btu from $1.50 per mBtu. Prices are likely to rise further.

However achieved, gas consumption is set to rise across the Middle East, creating a radically different energy mix from the oil-intensive past. The question is how smoothly the region can manage the transition.

Kuwait imports around 2.4 million t/y of LNG and could require 3.2 million t/y by 2020, depending on how much domestically produced gas it can harness. Dubai is already importing LNG, bringing in some 1.2 million tonnes in 2011 a figure that

could top 3 million t/y by the end of this decade. Dubai could supply some its LNG imports to the UAEs northern emirates. Abu Dhabi, meanwhile, is planning to fund a floating LNG regasification terminal in Fujairah, which would open in 2014.
