2 Outline 2 Current oil market assessment Medium-to-long term outlook Oil outlook beyond 21 Resource availability Uncertainties Energy technology in the oil equation

3 3 Current oil market assessment Key features of the present oil market Resilient economic growth & high demand Supply chain tightness OPEC & non-opec oil supply Downstream bottlenecks Persistent price volatility: enhanced by geopolitical tensions, increasing speculative activity in Futures market Destructive impacts of Hurricane Katrina & Rita

4 Economic & oil demand growth Rates of Economic Growth (real terms, at 1995 purchasing power parity) Twenty Year Average Growth Rate Strong economic growth in DCs (e.g, China, India): growing faster than the world with increasing share in global GDP Globalization process (export-led growth, increasing role of FDI) 1 OECD DCs China World Robust oil demand growth (particularly in Asia) China has become the 2 nd largest consumer Expected growth is higher than historical trend (last 1 years avg:1.4 mb/d), but lower than the average for last 3 years (1.9 mb/d) * USA China Others Last 3 years avg: 1.9 Last 1 years avg: 1.4 Last 2 years avg: 1.2 BACK 4

5 Strong growth in Chinese oil demand China s share in world oil consumption (%) % USA: 25.7% China: 8.1% Japan: 6.5% Germany: 3.2% India: 3.% China has become the second largest oil consumer Oil demand, barrels per capita per year USA UK Brazil China India Structural change in the economy - growing faster than the rest of the world, fueled by strong growth in oil Long-way to go: in line with rising per capita income levels, low per capita oil demand is yet to approach levels of other countries! 5

12 Accelerated OPEC capacity expansion plans OPEC-1 capacity expansion (by country) (end 24 end 25) (end 25 end 26) Algeria Indonesia Iran Kuwait Libya Nigeria Qatar KSA UAE Ven Source: OPEC Non-OPEC supply : Increase in non-opec supply up to 21 is expected to be ~5 mb/d, or even more according to some other sources. Accordingly, increase in total oil supply capacity is expected to reach ~12 mb/d, or more OPEC 1 Iraq Base NGL High OPEC High (in NGL NGL) High High (in NGL) 12

14 OPEC downstream expansion OPEC is attending to rising product demand both domestic & Asia-pacific region, as well as to meet higher product specifications Pursue global downstream investments, particularly in Asia-pacific region By implementing of these plans, they would be able to install over 4.6 mb/d new capacity (i.e. about 3.8 mb/d refinery capacity and 8, b/d condensate splitter). Major part of these new capacities will be invested by Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Similarly most of these projects would be either in the Middle East or in Asia. BACK 14

16 Oil outlook beyond Oil will remain single largest fuel in primary energy mix Major part of the increase in world oil demand to come from developing countries OPEC increasingly supplies incremental barrel Upstream investment challenge not dissimilar to the past: nevertheless, ensuring market stability will be complicated by considerable uncertainties driven by: Growth of world economy Energy policies (substantial downside risk to demand) Technological developments Oil price path Importance of reducing uncertainties to ensure sufficient & timely investments Global downstream investments are critical to market stability

36 CO 2 EOR Potential gigatonnes of CO 2 storage in EOR Projects (IEA estimate) Includes major basins in N. America, Europe, Middle East, Western Siberia More potential if Africa, Latin America, and Asia are included Win-win scenario of increasing oil supplies while storing large quantities of CO 2 EOR can provide financial incentive for early implementation of CO 2 capture technologies, thus helping to bring down the costs Revenue from EOR can help support infrastructure investments necessary to transport CO 2 to other geologic storage sites
