  • Algeria Upstream OG Report.Pub
    ALGERIA UPSTREAM OIL & GAS REPORT Completed by: M. Smith, Sr. Commercial Officer, K. Achab, Sr. Commercial Specialist, and B. Olinger, Research Assistant Introduction Regulatory Environment Current Market Trends Technical Barriers to Trade and More Competitive Landscape Upcoming Events Best Prospects for U.S. Exporters Industry Resources Introduction Oil and gas have long been the backbone of the Algerian economy thanks to its vast oil and gas reserves, favorable geology, and new opportunities for both conventional and unconventional discovery/production. Unfortunately, the collapse in oil prices beginning in 2014 and the transition to spot market pricing for natural gas over the last three years revealed the weaknesses of this economic model. Because Algeria has not meaningfully diversified its economy since 2014, oil and gas production is even more essential than ever before to the government’s revenue base and political stability. Today’s conjoined global health and economic crises, coupled with persistent declining production levels, have therefore placed Algeria’s oil and gas industry, and the country, at a critical juncture where it requires ample foreign investment and effective technology transfer. One path to the future includes undertaking new oil and gas projects in partnership with international companies (large and small) to revitalize production. The other path, marked by inertia and institutional resistance to change, leads to oil and gas production levels in ten years that will be half of today's production levels. After two decades of autocracy, Algeria’s recent passage of a New Hydrocarbons Law seems to indicate that the country may choose the path of partnership by profoundly changing its tax and investment laws in the hydrocarbons sector to re-attract international oil companies.

  • Recent Crude Oil Price Dynamics, PETRONAS and Malaysia
    Recent crude oil price dynamics, PETRONAS and Malaysia Lim Kim-Hwa [email protected] Tim Niklas Schoepp [email protected] 23 January 2015 Executive Summary Since PETRONAS contributed RM73.4 billion (30% of the Malaysian government’s expenditure) in 2013, the recent crude oil price fall has profound implications. The commodity effect will mean lower revenue and profits. However, this effect is cushioned by the depreciating USDMYR. This report aims to evaluate the likely price range of crude oil in 2015 and shows the possible impact on PETRONAS under different circumstances. With contained geo-political risks, global crude oil oversupply, slower global economic growth and cost factors that favour continuous production rather than cuts, crude oil is likely to trade between USD40 – 70 per barrel. Using the Annual Reports of PETRONAS, we estimated that: • If USDMYR depreciates slightly to 3.75 and crude oil trades at USD55 per barrel in 2015, PETRONAS’ profitability (as measured EBITDA) might fall to RM72 billion; and dividends might fall to RM19 billion (vs. RM123 billion and RM27 billion respectively in 2013); • In a rosy case (where crude oil trades at USD70 per barrel and USDMYR trades at 4), PETRONAS’ EBITDA would fall to RM98 billion but RM26 billion dividends payment might be possible; • In a bad case (where crude oil trades at USD40 per barrel and USDMYR trades at 3.5), PETRONAS’ EBITDA would fall to RM49 billion and dividends might fall by half to RM13 billion. • Some PETRONAS assets might be impaired, in particular those that were purchased when crude oil price was trading at over USD100 per barrel.

Sabah and Sarawak cover the northern coast of the island. The lower two‐thirds of Borneo is Kalimantan, which belongs to Indonesia. The area has a fascinating history, and probably because it is on one of the main trade routes through South East Asia, Borneo has had many masters. Sabah and Sarawak were incorporated into the Federation of Malaysia in 1963 and Malaysia is now regarded a safe and orderly Islamic country. Sabah has a diverse ethnic population of just over 3 million people with 32 recognised ethnic groups. The largest of these is the Malays (these include the many different cultural groups that originally existed in their own homeland within Sabah), Chinese and “non‐official immigrants” (mainly Filipino and Indonesian). In recent centuries piracy was common here, but it is now generally considered relatively safe for cruising. However, the nearby islands of Southern Philippines have had some problems with militant fundamentalist Muslim groups – there have been riots and violence on Mindanao and the Tawi Tawi Islands and isolated episodes of kidnapping of people from Sabah in the past 10 years or so.
