1 International Energy Forum Asian Energy Outlook up to 2030 Noé van Hulst, Secretary General, International Energy Forum (IEF)

2 Fresh IEF Charter Signed by 86 countries at Extraordinary IEF Ministerial Meeting (22 February 2011) 28 of the 86 IEF Member Countries from Asia (33%) Includes all major energy producers and consumers Reinforces commitment (producers / consumers / transit) Procedure for Extraordinary Ministerial Meeting

3 IEA / IEF / OPEC cooperation Shared Analysis of Energy Market Trends and Outlook Projections are not forecasts, but outlook users may see them differently Differences in projections and diversity of views are understandable, but should not lead to confusion, add to uncertainties or fuel market anxiety IEA and OPEC outlooks are more influential than outlooks produced by other entities Publishing regular reconciliation of IEA and OPEC outlooks could provide better understanding of projections made by the two Organisations IEA, IEF and OPEC jointly hosted a Symposium on Energy Outlooks on 24 January 2011 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to share insights and exchange views about the short-, medium- and long-term energy outlooks

4 Long-term Outlook Oil Demand (mb/d) Growth 2 p.a. Increment 2009/2030 OPEC IEA Includes biofuels (volumetric basis) and international marine and aviation fuels. 2. Compound average annual growth. 3. Current Policies Scenario.

5 Long-term Outlook Oil Supply (mb/d) IEA 1 OPEC OECD North America US & Canada Mexico Western Europe OECD Pacific China Other Asia Latin America Middle East & Africa Russia Other FSU Non-OPEC Supply 2 of which Crude Oil NGLs Non-conventional Biofuels Processing gains Total Non-OPEC Supply OPEC NGLs and other Liquids NGLs Non-conventional OPEC Crude World Supply Current Policies Scenario. 2. Includes non-conventional and excludes biofuels. 3. Volumetric basis. 4. Includes Venezuelan extra heavy oil.

6 Shared Analysis of Energy Market Summary of discussions (1/2): Trends and Outlook Global primary energy demand will continue to grow in short-, medium and long term Oil to remain primary fuel in satisfying the world s energy needs for the foreseeable future, but considerable uncertainties concerning future demand in particular due to energy and environmental policies Consensus that oil resources, both conventional and non-conventional, are sufficient to meet future demand Common recognition and emphasis that uncertainties complicate / hinder investment decisions, in an industry with long lead times, huge upfront capital requirements and long pay back periods

7 Shared Analysis of Energy Market Summary of discussions (2/2): Trends and Outlook Security of demand and security of supply are mutually supportive Gradual shift in energy demand toward emerging economies (non-oecd region) Impact of energy and environmental policies on energy outlooks and energy market Implications of outlooks and associated challenges for downstream sector, where surplus capacity is emerging, particularly in the Atlantic basin. Underscores the increasing potential for refinery closures Important to explore and better understand the effect of policy implementation on the results of the outlooks Difference of views on domestic prices for energy and on fossil fuel subsidies and taxes

8 Shared Analysis of Energy Market Main Outcomes: Trends and Outlook 2011 Oil Markets: Consensus on comfortable demand / supply balance / high spare capacity Medium-term: Long-term: Need for: Reduce uncertainty to facilitate investment Consensus on ample availability of oil resources Harmonisation of definitions and better explanation of divergences to market Annual Symposium on Outlooks

9 NOC IOC Cooperation 2 nd IEF NOC IOC Forum (Total / Saudi Aramco, April 2011) Easternization of Energy Demand Huge investment challenge (nearly $33 trillion up to 2035) Innovative long-term partnerships based on trust General principles or best practices as a tool role for IEF Industry Advisory Committee
