Exploration and Production
2006-2009 Triennium Work Report October 2009 WORKING COMMITTEE 1: EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION Chair: Vladimir Yakushev Russia 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction SG 1.1 “Remaining conventional world gas resources and technological challenges for their development” report SG 1.2 “Difficult reservoirs and unconventional natural gas resources” report 2 INTRODUCTION Reliable natural gas supply becomes more and more important for world energy sector development. Especially this is visible in regions, where old and sophisticated gas infrastructure is a considerable part of regional industry and its stable work is necessary for successful economy development. In the same time such regions often are already poor by conventional gas reserves or have no more such reserves. And there is need for searching new sources of natural gas. This is challenge for exploration and production of natural gas requiring reviewing strategies of their development in near future. The most important questions are: how much gas still we can get from mature areas (and by what means), and how much gas we can get from difficult reservoirs and unconventional gas sources? From this point of view IGU Working Committee 1 (Exploration and Production of Natural Gas) has established for the triennium 2006-2009 two Study Groups: “Remaining conventional world gas resources and technological challenges for their development” and “Difficult reservoirs and unconventional natural gas resources”. The purposes for the first Group study were to make definition of such important term now using in gas industry like “mature area”, to show current situation with reserves and production in mature areas and forecast of future development, situation with modern technologies of produced gas monetization, Arctic gas prospects, special attention was paid to large Shtokman project. -

Nordstream: an Economic and Market Analysis of the North European Pipeline Project
Riley, Nordstream: An Economic and Market Analysis of the North European Pipeline Project Nordstream: An Economic and Market Analysis of the North European Pipeline Project Professor Dr. Alan Riley, City Law School, City University, London & Associate Research Fellow, Centre for European Policy Studies, Brussels. 1.0 Introduction Most of the critical discussion in relation to the Nordstream project have focussed upon environmental concerns for example, the construction of the pipelines through the WWII munitions dumps in the Gulf of Finland.1 This paper takes a different approach. It instead examines the underlying economics and market context in which Nordstream will operate. It argues that the cost of Nordstream is already substantially more expensive than land based pipelines and that the costs of building the pipeline are likely to grow.2 As a consequence if the German domestic market remains substantially closed to competition German consumers particularly will face very high prices for Nordstream sourced gas. However, this paper argues that consumers are likely to be offered relief as a result of competition created by EU gas market liberalisation. The paper then argues that rather than consumers facing economic damage, it will instead be the shareholders in Nordstream, Gazprom, Gasuunie, EON and BASF who are likely to suffer3 The impact of gas market liberalisation will be to permit cheaper land based piped gas from alternative sources, for instance from the new British gas hub to flow into Germany and the rest of Europe undercutting Nordstream sourced gas and forcing Nordstream to exit the market. 1 Lips, Possible Environmental` Impacts of the Nordstream Project (2007) Presentation at the Nordstream Project Conference, (February 2007) Vilnius. -
Implementation of the Shtokman Project Is the Launch of Hydrocarbon Reserves Development of the Russian Arctic Shelf A. Y. Mand
Implementation of the Shtokman Project is the launch of Hydrocarbon Reserves Development of the Russian Arctic Shelf A. Y. Mandel – General Director of OOO Gazprom Dobycha Shelf The depletion of the onshore oil and gas reserves causes the necessity of rapid development of the hydrocarbon fields on the World Ocean s helf. The Russian Federation has the longest continental shelf in the world. As estimated by Russian and western geologists, the greater part of the shelf bears the potential of prospective oil and gas reserves. Above all, it holds true for the Russian Arctic shelf, though only 10% of the required geological information is a vailable. Meanwhile, several unique large oil and gas fields have been discovered in this part of the World Ocean so far; the evaluation has been made of hydrocarbon reserves of some fields in the Barents Sea, the Kara Sea, the East Siberian Sea and others in this re gion. The total estimated hydrocarbon reserves on the Russian Arctic Shelf amount to approx. 18% of their volume on the shelf of the World Ocean. For the last few years OAO Gazprom has intensified the activities on the development of the oil and gas fields on the continental shelf of the Russian Arctic Shelf. The Prirazlomnoye, Shtokman and some other fields of the Obskaya and Tazovskaya Bays are among the top-priority projects to be brought on stream from 2010 to 2020. The Shtokman gas condensate field is the largest and, therefore, the most promising field regarding the determination of the Russian gas development strategy for 50 years ahead. -

The Future of Energy and the Case of the Arctic Offshore: the Role of Strategic Management
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Article The Future of Energy and the Case of the Arctic Offshore: The Role of Strategic Management Elias G. Carayannis 1, Alina Ilinova 2,* and Alexey Cherepovitsyn 2 1 School of Business, George Washington University, Washington, DC 20052, USA; [email protected] 2 Organization and Management Department, Saint-Petersburg Mining University, 199106 Saint-Petersburg, Russia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +7-921-349-3472 Abstract: As risk and uncertainty factors have become more prominent in the already volatile energy market because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the development of Arctic hydrocarbon resources has become a debatable issue. At any rate, oil and gas companies need to improve their strategic manage- ment systems (along with the development of technologies) for the successful implementation of such complex projects. The purpose of this study was to propose the conceptual basis for transforming strategic management and planning systems of oil and gas companies so that they can successfully face global challenges when implementing offshore oil and gas projects in the Arctic as well as provide more sustainable energy sources. The article discusses the current situation with Arctic initiatives and the results of an analysis of price instability in the energy sector, along with an analysis of several megatrends affecting oil and gas companies. All this allows for presenting a conceptual vision of how a strategic management system should be transformed in order to become able to meet the requirements for implementing Arctic projects, with the emphasis being placed on sustainability, management requirements, and the key principles. -

Petroleum Activity in the Russian Barents Sea
FNI Report 7/2008 Petroleum Activity in the Russian Barents Sea Constraints and Options for Norwegian Offshore and Shipping Companies Arild Moe and Lars Rowe Petroleum Activity in the Russian Barents Sea Constraints and Options for Norwegian Offshore and Shipping Companies Arild Moe and Lars Rowe [email protected] – [email protected] Report commissioned by the Norwegian Shipowners’ Association September 2008 Copyright © Fridtjof Nansen Institute 2008 Title Petroleum Activity in the Russian Barents Sea: Constraints and Options for Norwegian Offshore and Shipping Companies Publication Type and Number Pages FNI-Report 7/2008 26 Authors ISBN Arild Moe and Lars Rowe 978-82-7613-530-5-print version 978-82-7613-531-2-electronic version Project ISSN 0879 1504-9744 Abstract Presently most attention in the Barents Sea is given to the Shtokman project. Experience from development of this field, where there are still many uncertainties, will have large consequences for the further development program and relations with foreign companies. The exploration activity going on is fairly limited, but over the last few years there has been a struggle over licenses and control over exploration capacity. In the medium term the goal of rapid development of the Arctic continental shelf has become intertwined with a comprehensive government effort to modernise the domestic shipbuilding industry to make it able to cover most of the needs offshore. With the shipbuilding industry in a deep crisis these goals are not fully reconcilable. Russia will either have to accept more foreign involvement, or scale down its offshore ambitions. We believe a combination of the two alternatives is likely. -

Gazprom: Gas Giant Under Strain
Gazprom: Gas Giant Under Strain Nadejda Makarova Victor Working Paper #71 January 2008 The Program on Energy and Sustainable Development at Stanford University is an interdisciplinary research program focused on the economic and environmental consequences of global energy consumption. Its studies examine the development of global natural gas markets, the role of national oil companies, reform of electric power markets, international climate policy, and how the availability of modern energy services, such as electricity, can affect the process of economic growth in the world’s poorest regions. The Program, established in September 2001, includes a global network of scholars—based at centers of excellence on five continents—in law, political science, economics and engineering. It is based at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies. Program on Energy and Sustainable Development Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies Encina Hall East, Room E415 Stanford University Stanford, CA 94305-6055 http://pesd.stanford.edu About the National Oil Company Study While the role of the state is declining in nearly every sector of world economic activity, in hydrocarbons the pattern is quite different. State-controlled oil companies—so-called national oil companies (NOCs)— remain firmly in control over the vast majority of the world's hydrocarbon resources. Some NOCs are singular in their control over their home market; others engage in various joint ventures or are exposed to competition. PESD’s study on National Oil Companies focuses on fifteen NOCs: Saudi Aramco, NIOC (National Iranian Oil Co), KPC (Kuwait Petroleum Co), PDVSA (Petróleos de Venezuela) , ADNOC (Abu Dhabi National Oil Company), NNPC (Nigerian National Petroleum Co), PEMEX, Gazprom , Sonatrach, CNPC, Petrobras, Petronas, ONGC, Sonangol, and Statoil. -
