Back in 2010 - Eastern Australia
domestic gas demand outlook
• A carbon price corresponding to CRPS -5% could
see 1,000 PJ/a gas-for-powergen by 2030 …
… but in the absence of carbon pricing, gas-for-
powergen falls to 400 PJ/a in 2030

• Domestic demand is now falling and looks unlikely to return to current levels for at least 20 years!!

Why is domestic demand
collapsing?
• A Perfect Storm:
– Competing demand from LNG Projects • Driving rising gas prices
– Manufacturing industry declining • Strong A$; declining competitiveness
• Manufacturing closures affect direct gas demand and indirect gas demand (via electricity)
– NEM electricity demand falling • With gas-fired electricity generation most heavily affected
– C-tax low to zero; rising gas prices; low electricity pool prices; black & brown coal running hard (no Contract for Closure); RET-driven renewables keep coming in
• No new entrant base load plant before 2020

Contraction in the NEM
• Energy in the NEM turned the corner in 2008 – Sustained decline is without precedent in the history of the industry
– Energy reduction from 2008-09 to 2012-13 = 13,400 GWh (scheduled and semi-scheduled basis as generated)
– Equivalent to a 1,800 MW generator @ 85% capacity factor
• Why? – Weak manufacturing/strong A$; renewables (wind/roof top solar); demand

– Brown coal output up 5%

Where will new gas come
from? • Conventional:
– Bass Strait (Gippsland, Otway, Bass Basins) • eg Kipper/Tuna/Turrum; Halladale/Blackwatch; Rockhopper
• CSG – Queensland: best of the resource is LNG committed; marginal
production economics???
– NSW: major resources but little recent progress – bogged down with policy/approvals issues and public opposition to development
• Missed the boat?
• “Unconventional” (Shale gas, tight gas) – For EA most promising is Cooper Basin tight/shale gas
• Encouraging technical results
• Large in situ resource established – Some “wet gas”
• Early commercialisation under way (eg Moomba 191)
• Cost structure/economics?? No cheap gas without associated liquids

Long-term settlement prices: indicative only
Will a “price bubble” emerge? How high? How long?
How would a supply/price
squeeze affect the market?
• Supply shortages – In the absence of new sources of gas supply, there is a risk that current
levels of domestic gas consumption will not be able to be maintained in the future
• Prices rise – effectively rationing demand to those customers best able to pay higher
prices
• Loss of gas-consuming industry – Price sensitive customers will exit the market
» “Demand destruction” will bring consumption into line with available supply
» Some of the exiting customers will not return, even if supply recovers and prices moderate
– Worst-affected will be large industrial consumers, esp. feedstock users (chemicals, fertiliser)
• Less gas-fired electricity generation – Reduced dispatch of gas-fired electricity generators will see increased
dispatch of existing coal-fired plant
East Coast Gas Outlook Conference 22
Response options • Only two fundamental
options: – Increase Supply OR
Reduce Demand
• LNG export demand is effectively locked in – LNG projects have long-
term offtake contracts with binding delivery commitments
• The only effective response options are those aimed at stimulating supply – But supply response takes
time
East Coast Gas Outlook Conference 23
Demand is effectively
locked in …
QCLNG Project – June 2013
Issues for gas users
• Supply risk – Risk to adequacy of supply greatest during
the period of LNG commissioning & ramp-up 2014 – 2016
– Risk around future performance of CSG fields
• Price risk – Prices trending upward now
– “Price bubble”?
• Re-contracting risk – Lock in now or later? For how long? Cost
of flexibility?
