Key Differences Between 1972 And 2003
Key Differences Between 1972 And 2003
n Oil demand now close to 80 million barrels per day.
n “Oil movements” now close to 45 million barrels per day.
n Long haul routes replaced many short hauls.
n Far greater oil at sea versus pipeline movements.
n Tanker economics awful for the past 3 decades.
n Much of the tanker fleet is very old.
SIMMONS & COMPANYINTERNATIONAL
Biggest Shift In FlowsBiggest Shift In Flows
n U.S peaked in supply - “Lower 48” now 35% of 1970 level.
n Russia peaked in demand. FSU demand now 50% of peak.
n North Sea cut Europe’s high dependence on imports.
n Miracle of Asia made Far East key market.
n Only constant: high dependence on Middle East.
SIMMONS & COMPANYINTERNATIONAL
High Percentage Of Current Fleet Needed To Keep “Oil At Sea”
High Percentage Of Current Fleet Needed To Keep “Oil At Sea”
n Start with rough estimate of average tanker size by type.
n Assume 50% is always backhaul (plus 5% “downturn”).
n 100% capacity is about 900 million barrels.
n 45 million barrels per day is 20 days’ supply.
n When reports say there are 830 million barrels at sea, so what?
SIMMONS & COMPANYINTERNATIONAL
The Spare Capacity Of The Tanker Fleet Is Skimpy
The Spare Capacity Of The Tanker Fleet Is Skimpy
n Small tankers do not count.
n VLCCs are almost all incremental needs of Middle East oil.
n Future for single hull tankers is at high risk.– One more strike and “you are out”?– EU bans could extend to many other areas.
n Loss of 1 million b/d from Venezuela to U.S. crude creates need for 30+ VLCCs.
n 2% growth in demand creates even greater potential need.
SIMMONS & COMPANYINTERNATIONAL
Does The World Need More Tankers (Or Less)?
Does The World Need More Tankers (Or Less)?
n If all single hull tankers need replacing, the number of new orders might be too high for shipyards to handle.
n If global oil supply flattens out, can existing fleet size stay constant?
n What happens to tanker demand as North Sea and Latin American oil declines?
n Is there a reliable “model” to guide future tanker supply and demand?
SIMMONS & COMPANYINTERNATIONAL
Future Oil Supply And Demand For Oil Is Confusing Picture
Future Oil Supply And Demand For Oil Is Confusing Picture
n Oil demand should continue to grow (or even accelerate).– 1990 - 2002 non-FSU growth: 15.5 million b/d.– Growth from China, “Other Asia” and North America, alone,
was 9.2 million b/d.– 2 billion people still use no oil.– Another 3 billion use very little oil.
n Oil supply growth uncertain.– Many key non-OPEC basins in permanent decline.– Some OPEC producers also in decline.– Most OPEC producers could soon be in decline.– Adding new fields takes time and money.

Could OPEC Supply Be Nearing Its Peak?Could OPEC Supply Be Nearing Its Peak?
n Absent a flurry of new exploration, many OPEC producers have now peaked.– Indonesia– Iran– Libya– Venezuela– Iraq
n Saudi Arabia’s oil is highly concentrated in a handful of old fields.– Rising water cuts are increasingly challenging.– Tight and complex formations also a challenge.– Exploration success has been scarce.

FSU Has Been The Only Big Supply Surplus
FSU Has Been The Only Big Supply Surplus
n FSU oil production peaked in 1987 at 12.54 million b/d.
n By 1995, production had collapsed to 7.09 million b/d.
n By first quarter 2003, oil production rebounded to 9.86 million b/d (+ 2.77 million b/d).
n Big uncertainties surround this surplus.– Are the numbers all real?– Are the gains sustainable?– Is this just “a start”?
SIMMONS & COMPANYINTERNATIONAL
Long-term Demand Estimates Show Need For Remarkable Growth
Long-term Demand Estimates Show Need For Remarkable Growth
n IEA’s long-term demand shows a great growth in total energy (196 MBOE/d in 2000 to 326 MBOE/d in 2030).
n Oil growth: 76 million b/d in 2000 to 124 million b/d in 2030.
n Key assumptions:– People still drive cars.– This “movement” spreads beyond OECD.
n Natural gas grows from 45 MBOE/d in 2000 to 91 MBOE/d (24% faster growth than oil).
n Only truism: Energy demand can never exceed energy supply.
SIMMONS & COMPANYINTERNATIONAL
Natural Gas Faces Similar UncertaintyNatural Gas Faces Similar Uncertainty
n All forecasts point to astonishing demand growth.
n But 60% of current base is in decline:– U.S.– Russia– Canada– U.K.
n Hard fact: 40% has to triple to make global supply balance.
n Middle East natural gas is expensive (not cheap).
n Most stranded gas has never seen a drill bit.
– Netherlands– Indonesia– Turkmenistan– Romania

LNG’s Future Has To Be Rosy (But Risky)
LNG’s Future Has To Be Rosy (But Risky)
n LNG has worked because projects were “seamless.”
n Spot LNG is a dangerous game.
n Ingredients for real LNG projects:– Dedicated reserves to support 30-year life span.– Dedicated pipelines.– Liquefaction plant.– Dedication trains– Receiving terminal.
n “All in” costs: $3 to $10 billion per 500 Bcf/day?

Tons Of Energy Data But Scarcity Of Accuracy
Tons Of Energy Data But Scarcity Of Accuracy
n The energy industry has fabulous set of industrial data.
n But most statistics are only estimates.
n Some are quite accurate; some are not.
n Big gaps create remarkable uncertainty.
n Some of the biggest gaps:– OPEC monthly production.– No non-OECD oil inventory data.– No OECD inventory beyond “primary stock.”– No accurate supply in most regions.– Good demand is available 18 - 36 months late.
SIMMONS & COMPANYINTERNATIONAL
Bad Data Creates Bad Roads MapsBad Data Creates Bad Roads Maps
“A bad road map is far more dangerous than no map at all”
n Oil gluts can come “out of thin air.”
n Price volatility follows rhetoric, not data.
n Lack of reliable data creates short-term reality from mere perceptions.
n Volatility in tanker market a perfect example.

Two “Very Different” ExplanationsTwo “Very Different” Explanations
n “Soaring tanker rates proof of record OPEC oil at sea”
n “Some unforeseen consequences of pending oil price collapse” (10/9/02)
n “War premium now impacting tankers”
n “Two back to back hurricanes lead to record drop in U.S. imports”
n “Low oil inventories creating spikes in oil prices”
n “Lack of tanker capacity limiting further growth in exports”
One View Opposing View

Economics Of Oil Are ChangingEconomics Of Oil Are Changing
Past 20 Years • $15 - $20 oil was normal. • Tanker rates to move oil de minimis. • And no part in oil value chain made real money.
Today • Oil seems to like $25 - $35 range.
• Tanker rates are expensive. • Many supply basins in decline.
Future • Is non-OPEC oil peaking?
• What does anyone really know about OPEC? • What will 2,000 new vessels cost? • What will future energy cost? • Who will pay this bill?
SIMMONS & COMPANYINTERNATIONAL
Cost Of Energy A Genuine PuzzleCost Of Energy A Genuine Puzzle
n “Normal prices” ($15 - $20/barrel) did not work.– Financial returns were awful for everyone.– Most OPEC economies in shambles.– Aging asset base - needs expensive overhaul or replacement.
n Current energy is costly– “Big 5”: $150 billion in E&P costs to grow production by 4% or
600,000 b/d (1999 - 2002)– Most new fields now cost $15,000 to $35,000/peak bbl.
n While many think oil should be $15.20/bbl, this price is far too low.
SIMMONS & COMPANYINTERNATIONAL
Energy’s Future Will Be Extremely Challenging
Energy’s Future Will Be Extremely Challenging
n Oil and gas decline rates are extremely real.
n Some parts of global supply have clearly peaked.
n Demand must grow.
n Historical energy prices got far too low.
n Future energy costs must be high.
n The world’s current understanding of energy is slight.
