The drivers for FLNG

Higher gas/energy prices

Growth in gas demand

36% increase between

2010 & 2020 (BP)

66% increase in Asia

Concern about declining

domestic gas production

(Europe & Asia)

Explosive growth of LNG

Drivers for FLNG

Cost effective way of monetising stranded/remote gas reserves

Design flexibility – re-deployable, can handle wide range of gases, can draw

from multiple fields

Problems with conventional LNG projects – long delays getting permits,

delays, cost over runs, shortage of key resources

Can utilise proven liquefaction technology – plenty of vendors

Potential for considerable cost savings:

No offshore production and compression stations

No subsea pipeline to shore

No onshore plant/berths/utilities

Modular construction in shipyards

How will FLNG fit in?

Still challenges but there is a place/need for FLNG and it could fit in:

By clearly demonstrating:

Substantial reduction in project development costs and time

Operating efficiency similar to onshore LNG

Lower CAPEX than conventional LNG

OPEX no higher than conventional LNG

Faster monetisation of reserves

Sponsors have kept it simple – not the time to be testing new technology

By having experienced, financially strong sponsors – preferably able to fund from balance sheet rather than project finance

By having a strong marketing team – to convince skeptical buyers (but we have moved back into a sellers market)

Probably more than just deepwater offshore – could be sound opportunities inshore or berthed

Could be a call for small scale barge mounted FLNG

…………………..it won’t be easy but the time is right!

Page 17: Prelude - where next is FLNG poised to "take off"?

www.tri-zen.com

What will it cost?

Early capital cost estimates for US$600- 1200/tpa

Recent indicative costs – US$1,500/tpa plus/minus 30%

Flex LNG indicating US$ ~700/tpa for 1.7 to 2.0 mill tonne liquefaction

capacity

Estimate that the capital cost of Shell’s Prelude FLNG facility will be just over

USD6bn or about USD1, 700 per tonne of capacity

Significant variations depending on gas composition (high/low C3, C4,

condensate) and CO2, N2 content,

High liquids content considerably increases commercial attraction

CAPEX figures exclude field development costs

Cost figures indicative until full design completed for specific location/resource

17

Page 18: Prelude - where next is FLNG poised to "take off"?

www.tri-zen.com

Insufficient LNG supply

LNG demand expected to double between 2010 and 2018/2019

Insufficient new liquefaction capacity coming on to meet demand – about 75

million tonnes

But, 338 million tonnes of new liquefaction capacity is being offered by

project sponsors who say they expect to take FID between 2012 and 2014.

Have recently seen a significant increase in the number of new projects being

offered into the project pipeline including 166 million tonnes from the USA

From famine to feast – unprecedented number of proposed projects

However, not all will go ahead

A path forward

Unprecedented number of potential projects being offered into the project

pipeline

Too many, much more difficult for customers to choose

Could see the emergence of business clusters/ areas of prime focus

Will make it more difficult for projects not in these focus areas to gain traction

with customers (e.g. Russia, Nigeria)

Likely to see FLNG emerge as the 5th cluster. Although not geographic,

another 40 million tonne cluster is emerging

Floating storage an attractive

option as LNG bunker storage in

ports without an LNG terminal

Bunkers may also be supported by

small/medium scale liquefaction

This could be FLNG in the port or

against a berth.
