The document analyzes factors influencing falling oil prices, including increased US shale oil production and OPEC's decision not to cut production. While lower prices benefit net oil importing countries, they hurt oil exporters. The 50% price drop is seen as disproportionate to actual supply/demand changes and may reflect speculative forces. Lower prices have mixed economic impacts, stimulating growth in importers but reducing revenues and potentially destabilizing exporters. The analysis suggests prices will rebound as speculative influences fade and fundamentals reassert themselves.
Oil is the major
source of energy from most of the developed as well as developing countries around the world.
Therefore a change in the supply of oil will significantly affect operations in most parts of the
world. There are a number of factors that affect the demand and supply of oil in the world.

Financial Algorithms presents the energy trading scenario for the year 2016. In this presentation, after examining various fundamental factors in energy sector, FA forecasts the crude oil price, gasoline & natural gas price levels for the year 2016; in case of mean volatility levels and high volatility levels, both. FA also focuses on how to model price levels and volatility surfaces in low volatility and high volatility scenarios under forward & forward-forward models using various energy contracts and spreads i.e. crack spread. Various greek sensitivities including second order & third order greeks, which can be helpful in projecting the price & volatility levels, are also described. At the end, correlation factors, fundamental & technical both, are discussed. These correlation factors are exogenous in price forecasting, and new emerging trends which can affect the energy trading in a long run also been discussed.

What the drop in oil prices means for the economy and office marketsJLL
Oil prices are below $65 per barrel for the first time since 2009, and energy producers across the globe are starting to panic. Lower prices will likely extend into 2015—bad news for energy companies and the downstream industries that support them, but good news for the U.S. economy and consumers.
We expect demand for real estate in the energy markets to weaken. Landlords and developers will feel pressure to secure and retain occupancy. But, the benefit of sustained low oil prices will fuel (pun intended) retail, residential, industrial and office demand across the United States overall.
Learn more about the energy industry, and our services for companies in the field, at http://bit.ly/1qSz2Li
The oil industry, with its history of booms and busts, is in its deepest downturn since the 1990s, if not earlier.
Earnings are down for companies that made record profits in recent years, leading them to decommission more than two-thirds of their rigs and sharply cut investment in exploration and production. Scores of companies have gone bankrupt and an estimated 250,000 oil workers have lost their jobs.
The cause is the plunging price of a barrel of oil, which has fallen more than 70 percent since June 2014.
Prices recovered a few times last year, but a barrel of oil has already sunk this year to its lowest level since 2004. Executives think it will be years before oil returns to $90 or $100 a barrel, a price that was pretty much the norm over the last decade.
Brent crude, the main international benchmark, was trading at around $29.64 ( 21st February 2016) a barrel on Saturday.
United States production has surged in recent years as the shale boom took off. That has helped create a glut of oil as major producers like Saudi Arabia continue to pump at high levels.

The Saturday Economist, UK Economic Outlook June 2016John Ashcroft
Growth in 2015 was 2.3% down from 2.9% in 2014. We now expect growth of 2.2% in 2016 … following the disappointing performance of manufacturing and construction in the first quarter.
The inflation outlook is still muted, with the fall in world oil, energy, food and commodity prices continuing to dominate headline inflation.
The UK economy grew by 2.0% in the first quarter, revisions to construction and manufacturing growth pulling total output lower. The service sector continues to drive growth.
In this June economics update we forecast world growth of 3.2% in 2016 up from 3.1% in 2015. UK Inflation will average just 0.3%, CPI basis, over the balance of the year 2016. Unemployment will continue to fall, government borrowing will also fall. The service sector will lead the recovery as manufacturing and construction output falls slightly.
We are forecasting a modest fall in manufacturing of around 0.2% in 2016 with a 0.9% fall in construction activity based on the latest data. The trade figures will continue to disappoint, offset by a further £2 billion oil dividend, despite a moderate oil price recovery. The challenge to the current account following the drop in overseas investment income continues and will present a significant problem to the outlook for sterling over the medium term.
Our forecast is based on a "remain" referendum outcome! .

Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group
Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

The Saturday Economist - Oil Market Update 2015
2. Page 2
What’s the difference between Brent Crude or West Texas Intermediate?
Brent Crude and West Texas Intermediate are the two most often quoted
benchmarks for oil prices. Brent Crude - is a low sweet (low density low sulphur
content) from the North Sea region. WTI (West Texas Intermediate) is a slightly
higher quality US crude. WTI is stockpiled and priced in Cushing Oklahoma.
Refining and pipeline constraints have led to price differential opening up between
the prices of Brent Crude and West Texas Intermediate.
How have the prices varied?
From the period 2000 until the end of 2010, the price series (Brent and WTI) were
strongly correlated [0.9866] but less so from 2011 onwards [0.8684].
Increased output from US shale met with restrictions in pipeline to refinery capacity
in the Gulf of Mexico. A build up stocks in Cushing Texas, the central warehousing
spot led to mis pricing over the short term.
The collapse in prices Q4 2014 …
In the final quarter of 2014, oil prices collapsed from an average $106 Brent Crude
basis, to $55 dollars by end of year. The dramatic fall in prices is attributed to lower
demand as a result of slower growth in China and Europe plus an increase in
output of US shale, adding to the excess supply over demand problem.
But is this really the case? We examine the fundamentals and suggest minor
changes in demand and supply do not justify a 50% collapse in the oil price.
“How can we explain a 50% drop in oil prices?”
The Saturday Economist - Oil Market Update 2015
3. Page 3
How far is a drop in world demand to blame?
World demand is expected to average 93 million barrels per day in 2014 compared
to an average 90.6 million in 2013. Despite the set back in 2008 and 2009, we
estimate the trend rate of growth of world oil demand to be 1%.
The measured response suggests a demand elasticity of around 0.3%. [Oil
consumption as a function of world GDP growth.]
Oil Market Consumption in 2020 …
By 2020 we assume world oil demand will have increased to a level of 97 million
barrels per day assuming an average 3.0% to 3.5% growth rate in world GDP.
“97 million barrels per day”
The Saturday Economist - Oil Market Update 2015
4. Page 4
So what of the China syndrome?
So if the overall world demand conditions are relatively strong, can we attach any credibility to the suggestion the slow down in China’s rate of growth
will impact on oil demand and imports?
Well not really.
We estimate the demand co-efficient for China oil
consumption as a function of growth, to be around [0.7142].
A reduction on growth in the Chinese economy from 7.0%
to 7.4% would result in a drop in the rate of growth of oil
consumption but by a very small amount approximately
0.3% at worse.
In 2013, the estimated level of consumption in China, was
11 million barrels per day. The implications of the slow
down in the Chinese growth rate and oil consumption will
create but a tiny drop in the world oil bucket.
China slow down - a tiny drop in
the world oil bucket”

World oil market - worth $3.6 trillion Dollars …
We estimate the value of world oil to have been $3.6 trillion Dollars in 2013 falling
slightly to $3.3 billion in 2014. The estimates are based on a consumption rate of
90.3 million barrels per day in 2013 rising to 93 million barrels per day in 2014. The
average price we use in our model is just under $109 in 2013 and $100 in 2014.
The collapse in prices - at a cost of $1.6 trillion …
By December 2014 prices had fallen to just over $50 Dollars per barrel. The market
collapse was an annualised cost (or benefit) to the world economy of over $1.6
trillion dollars. The squeeze on producers around the world has been intense. The
loss of revenue for all oil producers has been dramatic.
So what is the impact on world GDP?
We estimate the market value of oil as a percentage of world GDP to be around
4.9%. In the case of China and the USA, the figure is slightly lower around 4.4%.
A 10% fall in oil prices is worth some 0.5% to the world economy but this can be a cost to producers and a
benefit to consumers with a zero sum balance.

Winners and losers?
Winners in the price drop are the strong net importers including China, Japan,
Europe and India together with Singapore and other Asia Pacific beneficiaries. The
UK will benefit but to a much lesser extent.
Losers in the trade are OPEC particularly the Middle East countries of Saudi
Arabia, Iran, Iraq and UAE. Venezuela, Nigeria and Russia are also losers in the
price change. Countries with high internal fiscal deficits and / or high external
deficits are particularly vulnerable to the oil price shock.

So what of costs?
But most onshore shale rigs have a short draw life with
relatively expensive marginal cost of extraction around $62
according to Rystad Energy Research. Some 70% of
extraction occurs within the first two years of operation in
the case of horizontal rigs.
For oil sands extraction, the processing and cleansing
costs add to the cost of extraction. The average cost profile
rises to $74 placing particular pressure on some Canadian
production.
Onshore Russian costs fall to $54 dollars average, similar
to deep water oil at $53. Offshore shelf extraction is
estimated at $43. All are compared to just $29 average
cost of Onshore Middle Eastern oil.
It is suggested the Saudis are happy to see prices fall in
the short term, to put pressure on US shale extraction.
OPEC will not cut production to match the price imbalance.

The forward supply demand mismatch is not huge …
The forward mismatch between supply and demand is not huge. The latest forecasts from the EIA Short Term Economic Outlook suggest the
oversupply will average less than one million barrels per day throughout 2015.

So what of US shale?
The increase in US particularly US shale has been cited as a cause of the oil price collapse. As
the oil prices rises, so too does the number of US oil rigs. The number of US rigs is estimated to
be 1,800 in 2014 according to the Baker Hughes Oil rig report. As oil revenues fall so too will the
number of US oil rigs.
US output is increasing. The EIA estimate the level of crude oil production increased from 6.5
million barrels per day in 2012 to 7.4 million in 2013, 8.6 million in 2014 and 9.3 in 2014. The
variance in growth of 2 million barrels per day over the last two years is significant but has to be
put in context of a world market of over 90 million barrels per day equivalent. By 2020, we expect
world consumption to increase to 98 million barrels per day.
An increase in supply will have an impact on price but
a 2% increase in supply does not fully explain or justify
a 50% fall in oil prices.

So why the huge price collapse?
Game theory?
In the short term, OPEC is confronted with a loss of market share as a result of the increase in US and Russian oil activity. OPEC is loathe to
surrender space in Asian markets to South American oil looking for a new berth as prospects for US imports fall. But does the strategy really justify a
loss of world oil revenues to producers of $1.6 trillion annual rate? OPEC is engaging in a race to the bottom of the barrel.
Prices around $50 Dollars per barrel are unsustainable. Recent price moves begin to mirror the 2008 oil price rise, which we identified as more of a
speculative bubble rather than a market move based on fundamentals.
The costs of extraction of Middle Eastern oil are low, but it is suggested Saudi Arabia needs $85 Dollar oil to break even at trade level. Iran has a
much higher break even price of around $140 per barrel. The Saudis have considerable dollar reserves and can absorb losses over the “medium
term” but to what end?
The squeeze on US shale …
The squeeze on US shale is already leading to a reduction in the number of rigs and forward investment plans but any recovery in price above $100
Dollars would simply lead to a restoration of the installations and rates of extraction.
The Putin Put Conspiracy …
Popular also is the suggestion the Saudis have conspired with the Americans to put pressure on the Russians with such a heavy dependency on oil
and gas for exports and dollar revenues.
Sunni versus Shiite …
Equally popular to conspiracy theorists is the suggestion the Saudis wish to pressure the Iranians over the support for the conflicting sides in the
Syrian and extended Middle East conflict.
Either way the loss of revenue is a heavy price to pay for geo political pricing policy, which cannot be sustained over a prolonged period. Keynes said
“Markets can remain irrational a lot longer than you and I can remain solvent” but “sovereign countries can remain solvent much longer than markets
can remain irrational.”

So what is the real impact of lower oil prices?
For net importers …
For net importers lower oil prices mean lower producer prices and
retail prices especially in energy utility and transport costs. This is
a boost to consumption as real incomes improve and spending
can receive a boost. Lower oil prices have a positive impact on
growth and employment except in direct and indirect oil industry
related sectors.
Sector beneficiaries include, airlines, transport, travel, leisure and
entertainment. Losing sectors include energy, energy equipment
suppliers particularly those supplying to the oil trade.
Central Bankers …
For central bankers, the pressure reduces to increase base rates
as inflation rates fall. Policy makers must be able to see through
any short term negative rates of inflation and avoid any panic
reaction to an immediate deflationary trend.
Trade Deficits …
Lower oil prices will lead to a fall in trade deficits (or an increase in trade surplus) for net consumers. In the UK, we estimate a 10% fall in
oil prices is worth £1billion in trade revenues. Hence a 40% fall in oil prices is worth 0.25% kick to net growth through trade effects alone.
An improving trade deficit will have a positive impact on currency as a result of stronger trade and capital flows. Implications of stronger
growth may pull forward rates higher.

Fiscal Impact …
Tax revenues may suffer as a direct loss of oil revenues and petrol duty revenues. Lower inflation may produce a fiscal drag effect with
lower prices generating a lower tax take. There may be some stimulus to consumption which may provide an offset. For certain
economies including India, the fall in oil prices will provide an opportunity to reduce energy related subsidies.
World Impacts …
We use an average 5% of GDP to calculate world impacts. We estimate the value of overall world oil consumption as a percentage of
world GDP to be approximately 4.9%. In the case of USA and China, the level is slightly lower at 4.4%.
A 10% fall in prices suggests a 0.5% fall in nominal world GDP. The impact is deflationary. The loss of revenues to producers is a first
round impact, which is negative for growth. The reduction in costs to net consumers has a first round gain to trade balance of a
commensurate dimension. This, although positive for individual countries, is neutral for world growth.
For net consuming nations, lower prices may produce a real incomes benefit, leading to a boost to spending and activity but this is a
more measured and delayed response.
The JP Morgan suggestion that “Estimates of growth suggest a $10 fall in oil prices means that oil importing countries grow by an
additional 0.5% at the expense of oil exporting countries” reflects the transfer effect as reflected in our GDP profiles. It does not reflect in
commensurate growth per se in the consuming states.
For Net exporters …
The fall in prices has a negative impact on international revenues, capital flows and debt service capability. For those oil producers with
internal or external deficits, the impact can be acute. The vulnerabilities of oil-exporting countries can be identified via a fiscal break-even
price. That is, the oil prices at which the governments of oil-exporting countries balance their internal budgets.

Troubled Oil on Calm Waters …the speculative bubble map returns …
In June 2008 as the oil price headed for $200 Dollars per
barrel Brent Crude basis, we called the price down. The
black gold price move was an exact overlay of the
speculative bubble map. We cautioned and advised prices
were heading lower.
The downside reaction in 2009 to $40 was a unwind of
futures and speculative positions. Fundamentals were little
changed. Prices would revert to norm as fundamentals
returned.
In 2014, the demand fundamentals are little changed,
despite the slow down in world trade. The supply side
dynamics from US shale have changed but not that much.
The increase in output does not warrant the 50% fall in oil
prices.
A wider dimension is at work. Geo political guesswork about, sheiks versus shale, East versus West, the Putin Put, Sunni
versus Shiite help the volatility and the players in the market.
The 2014 price move mirrors the 2008 price move. This time the bears not the bulls have the ring but not for much longer. The
Speculative bubble map has returned but sooner or later so will the fundamentals.
