Summary of Presentation• 2 perspectives on 2020 global oil downstream

– “business as usual”– high price / alternative outlook

• Focus on:– non-conventional & alternative fuels supply– demand reduction

• WORLD model assessments of 2020 outlook:– refining capacity / investments – market prices / differentials– marine bunkers

• Implications

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

EnSys Activities• Focus:

– Assessing short through long term developments in the global oil refining and supply system

– So as to inform and guide client decisions affecting policy & strategy

• Methods:– Quantitative simulation and projection of the global downstream

• Bottom up WORLD modeling encompassing: – Crudes and non-crudes supply– Refining and crude and product transportation/trade– Product quality and demand– (Potentially) emissions

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

EnSys Activities• Examples – current & recent projects:

– DOE OSPR assess how US and global refining is likely to change by 2015 and the implications for crude oil requirements under disruptions

– EPA assess the impacts on US and global refining and oil markets of potentially far reaching regulations to reduce emissions from international marine bunker fuels

– European super major, assess the potential for adequacy of announced refining projects and the implications for profitability, especially in Asia

– 2 US majors, assess market and refining implications of major GTL projects

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

EnSys Activities• Examples – current & recent projects:

– OPEC, assess the factors that have created current refining tightness and the medium term outlook

– Bloomberg, generate daily refining netbacks & margins in several markets

– EIA, re-license WORLD model to improve their ability to undertake short and long term analyses of global developments, policies, issues

– Canadian syncrude producer / super major, assess US and global refining & supply GHG emission impacts of introducing their syncrude

– Additives manufacturer, US and global market price and GHG impacts of making gasoline easier to produce

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

EnSys Activities• Examples – current & recent projects:

– For ExxonMobil, expert witness on Alaskan crude valuation

– For State of New York, impacts of banning MTBE, requiring ethanol in gasoline

– For water authorities, pending testimony in MTBE liability litigation

2020 Outlookemerging alternative scenarios

• IEA and EIA forecasts reflect potential wide range in global outlook by 2020

• “business as usual” (BASE)– Current high oil prices are a temporary phenomenon– Peak oil doomsayers wrong, optimists right– OPEC re-establishes & maintains capacity surplus – even with strong

demand growth, re-establishes control over oil price– Oil prices revert to $30-40/bbl

• Alternative (ALT)– OPEC strain to maintain supply growth, signs of “peak oil”– High oil prices ($40 - $80 /bbl) are set more by the marginal high-cost

technologies– The potential / prospect for continued high prices creates strategic shifts

away from dependence on conventional oil– Expressed through:

• Growth in non-conventional & renewable supplies• Reduction in oil product demand through shifts from oil and conservation

2020 Outlookpotential exists for large increases in non-conventional /

alternative fuels

• Canada oil sands– Vast reserves, proven technology, economics – Current projections by Canadian industry &

government are for 2.5 - >3 mmbpd by 2015, hence Base 3.4 by 2020 and stretch 4.4

• Venezuela Orinoco– Political uncertainties could flatten growth but

plants in place, production & upgrading technologies proven

– Offsetting effects in Alt Case:• Lowered oil production will cut NGL output but • Higher gas production will offset• Net little change projected in Alt case

• Petchem Naphtha demand and returns assumed little impacted

• GTL production substantially higher in Alt case as high oil prices relative to gas raise incentives / accelerate technology progress

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

2020 Outlookpotential exists for large increases in non-conventional /

alternative fuels

• CTL’s– Recent EIA outlook indicated potential for

substantial CTL production from large US coal base – and Energy Policy Act contains incentives

– China has large coal reserves, is moving ahead with project (part of strategic diversification) and has announced plans to go to 1 mmbpd plus

– India has large coal reserves and has announced projects

– South Africa potential to expand– Other players already have production

– USA• Energy Policy Act RFS mandates 7.5 bn gal/yr by 2012 and

maintaining ratio to gasoline thereafter• Oak Ridge study has shown potential to produce ethanol from

“cellusosic” wastes equivalent to 10% of US transport fuels by 2020, 20% by 2030

• rapid supply growth, new companies / plants• EnSys 2020 Alt projection equates to around 7% including ethanol from

corn, i.e. around 3.5% each from corn based and cellulosic ethanol– Europe

• EU has announced tentative target of 20% alternative fuels in transport fuels by 2020

• Production already exists in several EU countries and is growingrapidly, emphasis on bio-diesel

• EnSys Base case assumes 2% level by 2020, Alt case 8% level

2020 Outlookpotential exists for large increases in non-conventional /

alternative fuels

• Total non-conventional/alternative supply– Potential is for increase of 6+ mmbpd supply by 2020 driven by

strategic concerns, policy mandates/incentives versus Base • Demand Reduction

– Per EIA and IEA projections, substantial potential exists to reduce demand through technology / conservation incentives/application and as result of higher oil prices

– WORLD cases were based on EIA AEO cases at Base 103.7 (110.1) and Alt 95.2 (102.2) mmbpd 2020, difference -8.5 mmbpd

• Combined impact of supply increase plus demand reduction is 14+ mmbpd

• A major effect is to reduce OPEC conventional supply

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

2020 OutlookDemand impact detail

• Projected demand impact spread across all fuels• Largest reductions in gasoline and distillate• WORLD results differ slightly from EIA as internal

consumptions and coke and sulfur by-products are developed directly in the model

WORLD Model• Integrated LP model of the global downstream:

– Crudes & non-crudes supply– Refining and “non-refinery” processing & investments– Product demand & quality– Transportation of crudes, non-crudes, intermediate and finished

products• Not a price/supply/demand forecasting tool• Captures the activities and economics of the downstream under

user-defined short/medium/long term scenarios• Valuable for analysis of the combined impacts of sector

developments on refining activities, investments, crude and product trade, associated economics

• Used by and for: DOE, EIA, EPA, API, OPEC, major oil companies

Marine Bunker Fuels• MARPOL / SECA regs start of a long

road:

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

Marine Bunker Fuels

• Regs are SOx, NOx, (PM)• Issues of compliance methods/mix:

– Fuel HDS – On-board scrubbing– Emissions trading

• Major potential implications for resid HDS requirements

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

Implications• Market Impacts

– Alternative plus non-conventional fuels impacts (plus conservation) may be “at the margin”

– But bulk of alternative streams are light, clean, take pressure off upgrading plus quality improvement

– Combined impact on global downstream is far reaching

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

Implications• Supply/Demand Policy

– Fuel shifts need to be monitored– Careful thought given to gasoline / diesel supply /

demand balance when considering alternative / non-conventional fuels supply options:

• Biomass: ethanol vs biodiesel• CTL: high temp process for gasoline products vs low

temp for diesel • Continuing shift to diesel demand (Europe, Asia, US??)

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

Implications

• Technology– This study assumed improving economics

of alternative fuels (ethanol, CTL etc.) – But fairly static refinery processing

technologies• Established and commercializing technologies• Graded declines in costs

– No radical shifts??

EnSys: Refining Economics Technology ModelingEnSys: Refining Economics Technology Modeling

Implications• Hydrogen / hydrogen processes

– Base outlook is H2 consumption in refineries more than doubles by 2020

• 6% p.a. growth rate• 0.57 mmbfoed 2006 to 1.3 mmbfoed 2020

– Alt fuels and global oil demand level have significant impact

– Marine bunkers demand and regulation potential for significant demand

– Thrust is toward H addition & syngas processes:• Hydro-cracking, HDS, CTL etc.
