7. Heightened oversight of oil and gas industry
âș Greater compliance and regulatory burden
âș Cross border complexity in operations
âș Varying reserves/financial reporting standards
âș Corporate governance structure
âș The expectations of minority shareholders
âș Need for greater transparency (especially if capital
raising)
âș Opposition from special interest groups

9. A changing industry
For decades the leading industry players have focused on
âș Global market coverage
âș Vertical integration
âș Economies of scale
âș Operational supply chain efficiency
This model is currently undergoing change and an alternative model based upon
the following themes is emerging:
âș Focus on core markets
âș Divesting of ânon coreâ assets and businesses
âș Relationship and contractor management
âș Capital efficiency
The changing of this model presents opportunities/risks for NOCs as they
consider whether to enter new markets and new businesses

10. There are both opportunities and risks
Key opportunities
âș Access to new markets and
resources
âș Acquisition of skills/technology
âș Strengthening and internationalising
of the brand and organisation
âș Synergies with existing businesses
âș cost and efficiency savings
âș supply chain benefits
âș Buying at the right time in the
economic cycle

Page 10
Key risks
âș Management skills
âș Does current management have the skills
to manage the acquired asset(s)
effectively?
âș Current liabilities and potential
future liabilities
âș Are these fully understood and factored
into the purchase agreement and ongoing
business plan
âș Political risks and reputational risks
âș Moving into overseas markets has a
different risk profile. Is this risk profile
fully understood and can it be managed
effectively?
âș Buying at the wrong time in the
economic cycle

JVs help to spread the risk
Source: IHS Herold
13. Future projects may look different
âș Increased use of JVs to pool capital and mitigate risks in large
projects
âș Governments are becoming increasingly active in encouraging and
brokering alliances in the oil & gas sector
âș New partnerships emerging between reserves-rich NOCs and those
of import-dependent nations
âș NOCs buying into existing joint ventures to gain access to
markets/generate new revenue streams
âș Increased number of JV partners in individual projects due to their
cost and complexity
âș There will be fewer listed upstream and oilfield services companies at
the end of the year than the start of the year
