How did we end up here?
2006
 “The US is destined to become a key LNG (import) Market” (BG Group presentation)
 “North America emerges as a major importer of LNG” (IEA, IEEJ & others)
 “Natural Gas prices will remain high in the US for the foreseeable future” (EIA)
 “Renewables will increase share slightly, driven by large scale hydro-electric projects…non-OECD (EIA)
2
Energy use projections from 2006
Energy Projections – how did they do?
Comparison of Future predictions (to 2030)
Comparison of future predictions
What the current forecasts are indicating
BP 2016 energy outlook:
 Energy demand grows more slowly than GDP due to increases in efficiency
 Renewables are the fastest growing fuel (6.6% p.a). Increasing from 5% in 2015 to 16% by 2035. This is a
significant increase from last year’s predictions
 Supported by falling prices, but limited by intermittency
 Oil price recovery is anticipated, and oil demand continues to grow
 Transport fuel remains dominated by oil
 Asia dependence on oil imports increases significantly
 Demand for natural gas grows strongly (but lower than last year’s predictions)
 LNG trade continues to grow faster than gas growth, increasing LNG share of trade
 Coal demand growth slows sharply
Other outlooks (IEA, MIT, IEEJ)
 General consensus with the role of emerging markets as drivers of energy consumption growth
 Gas fastest growing fossil fuel, modest growth in oil
 IEA WEO 2015: Renewables will become the largest power source by 2030 (30+%)
 More recent discussions on the “Green”/ “Cheap” squeeze…
7
What might be different
Past and present game changers:
 Shale gas and oil development
 Continued success in the US, can it be emulated in Australia?
The green, cheap squeeze on gas…
 Gas is not as green as renewables
 Gas is not as cheap as coal
 Countries could move to a mix of renewables and coal for power generation
 Coal fired power generation emits twice as much CO2 as gas fired generation, and is not as flexible
 Gas is the ideal partner for renewables to maintain stability (intermittent use), and minimise emissions
 Gas needs to be positively promoted as the partner for renewables
 How do we get over the current moratoria on fracking?
Power storage for renewables may be a game changer
 Demand for oil and gas grows slower than anticipated
 Further price pressure, prices remain low for the long term
8
Conclusions, and what we are seeing
Existing and future projects will need to be robust to continued low prices
 Continued focus on costs
 Portfolio rationalisation and focus on core strengths
Recognition of limitations of viability by many companies
 LNG projects shelved
 Marginal oil field developments cancelled/abandoned
 Cost reduction
Re-emergence of end of life transactions
 Large organisations are looking to divest ageing assets
 Small, lower cost, operators are taking on assets that large organisation can no longer make money from
 Is this transferable into development opportunities?
Opportunities for new players and new ideas
 Opportunities to produce and trade small scale gas in domestic markets
 New International LNG markets on a smaller scale (FSRU’s in new areas)
 LNG buyers looking for smaller and shorter term contracts
 Small scale (F)LNG
