Oil and Gas Methane Data Visualisation – Metadata Document Oil and Gas Methane Data Visualisation – Metadata document The data visualisation demonstrates that the EU is still a major consumer of natural gas (12% of the total global supply) and that across the EU, natural gas provides a significant proportion of the primary energy consumed1. The natural gas pipeline network represents a major source of downstream2 fugitive methane emissions, and EU countries depend on this infrastructure to supply them with the commodity. Only a few EU countries produce significant quantities of natural gas (the EU produces 3% of the global natural gas production), thus, Norway and Russia provide the bulk of the natural gas imports to EU countries via pipeline routes in order to meet the EU’s demand. As a result, in 2015, according to submissions to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), 62% of methane emissions attributed to the EU’s oil and gas industry came from the downstream gas network. It is not only the consumption3 of natural gas that brings with it the potential for associated fugitive methane emissions. Oil production4 and gas production5 (referred to as the upstream6 division of the industry) includes processes that emit methane into the atmosphere, for example, through venting, incomplete combustion during flaring, or operational processes. According to submissions to the UNFCCC, in 2015, the upstream industry was responsible for 37% of oil and gas methane emissions in the EU (and over half of these emissions were from oil production). The visualisation highlights the reported absolute and relative contribution of EU member states to the EU’s total oil and gas methane emissions, whilst associating the emissions to either upstream or downstream activities. It is important to note that these emissions tend to be based on estimates that rely on emission factors, and not empirical data from measurements made at different spatial scales. Numerous studies have found that oil and gas sources have a “fat-tail” distribution with the top five or ten percent of the highest emitting sites/sources accounting for a large portion of Environmental Defense Fund Europe T +44 203 310 5909 Environmental Defense Fund works around the world from offices in New York / 6 Borough High Street edf.org/europe Washington / San Francisco / London / Beijing / La Paz, Mexico / and other cities London, SE1 9QQ, UK Environmental Defense Fund Europe is a registered charity (charity number 1164661) and a company limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales (company number 09217493). emissions. Traditional inventory approaches that rely on emission factors, including those utilised in the EU, often do not account for these high emitting sources and therefore have a tendency to underestimate emissions. The data used for the visualisation has been compiled from a variety of sources, including BP’s Statistical Reviews of World Energy, UNFCCC submissions, the US Environmental Information Administration, Rystad Energy, World Bank and the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs. 1 Primary energy consumption – takes into account energy consumed from all sources. ‘Other sources of energy’ includes: Oil, Coal, Nuclear Energy, Hydroelectric and Renewables. 2 Downstream emissions are defined as those from transmission, distribution and other leakages. 3 Gas consumption – Includes derivatives of coal as well as natural gas consumed in Gas-to-Liquids transformation. 4 Oil production – the visualisation includes data from production of crude oil, shale oil, oil sands and NGLs (natural gas liquids – the liquid content of natural gas where this is recovered separately). It excludes liquid fuels from other sources such as biomass and derivatives of coal and natural gas. 5 Gas production – Includes data from natural gas produced for Gas-to-Liquids transformation. Excludes gas flared or recycled. 6 Upstream emissions are defined as those from exploration, production, processing, gas flaring and venting.

Countries are now contending with the sobering reality that the pandemic will not be so easily be quelled, and are taking measures to calm the currents that continue to batter society at large. Based on three months of observing the pandemic, we at Rystad Energy have now condensed our findings into nine key insights that we will explore in the outbreak section of this edition. In our impact section we have again looked at road traffic, aviation and other drivers of oil demand, and concluded that the recovery will take time, and that fourth quarter demand will most likely amount to only 92.5 million barrels per day. As week-to-week changes now appear less prominent, we have decided to change the frequency of this report from weekly to monthly editions. Weekly updates on the oil demand will still be available in our Oil Markets Weekly report. Forthcoming editions of the Covid-19 report will be in the second week of June and the second week of July.

  • Thriving in a Shallower Profit Pool for Oil and Gas
    Thriving in a Shallower Profit Pool for Oil and Gas Regain a competitive edge by reducing costs, embracing digital and differentiating yourself in the market. By Juan Carlos Gay, Peter Jackson and Torsten Lichtenau Juan Carlos Gay, Peter Jackson and Torsten Lichtenau are partners with Bain & Company in London. All three work with Bain’s Oil & Gas practice. The authors would like to thank Robert Campbell for his contributions to this work. Copyright © 2018 Bain & Company, Inc. All rights reserved. Thriving in a Shallower Profit Pool for Oil and Gas Executive Summary As crude oil prices stabilize in the $50–$70 range, some oil and gas executives may be tempted to lose focus on productivity and cost cutting—but that could prove an existential mistake. Lower prices, technological disruption, rising regulatory complexity and the increasing sophistication of national competitors have combined to reduce the global profit pool by more than 60%. To thrive, oil and gas companies will need to continue to seek out productivity gains and lower costs while embracing new digital technologies and pursuing strategies to differentiate themselves in the marketplace. More than three years after oil prices collapsed, with crude prices stabilizing in the $50–$70 range, oil and gas executives are allowing for a bit of optimism again. Capital spending is rebounding, new upstream projects launch weekly and several major integrated oil companies (IOCs) have posted consecutive quarters of profitability for the first time since 2014. Some IOCs expect to increase capex by 15% this year; others remain cautious. In previous cycles, this is about the point where many forget the hard-won lessons learned during the downturn, lose focus on productivity and cost efficiency, and begin to spend again in pursuit of growth.

  • Covid-19 Report 08—Rystad Energy
    COVID-19 REPORT 8TH EDITION GLOBAL OUTBREAK OVERVIEW AND ITS IMPACT ON THE ENERGY SECTOR 29 APRIL 2020 PUBLIC VERSION Table of Contents Executive summary Outbreak status and outlook Impact on oil demand Impact on the oil and gas industry 2 Executive summary Herd immunity unlikely as storage woes threaten global oil outlook In this week’s edition, we have taken a closer look at true fatality rates in various countries versus reported fatality rates from Covid-19. Based on research from the New York Times, figures from 11 regions indicate that the true number of Covid-19 fatalities could be 60% higher than reported figures. Applying this to our model shows that New York City will probably achieve herd immunity soon, as half of the population is likely already infected. For most other countries, a maximum of 13% of the population is likely infected, while in most places less than 1% is likely infected. Thus, there is no indication that global herd immunity will be achieved over the next 12 months. This means the operant strategy going forward will be the continued isolation of recovered regions, while local activities within a region slowly resume. We therefore must continue to wait for a vaccination, a new miracle drug, or an efficient anti-virus technology, which will hopefully arrive quicker than herd immunity. Recent traffic data confirms that flight and car traffic reached a floor one or two weeks ago and are now slowly trending upwards. However, with 28 million barrels per day in demand destruction and still less than 2 million barrels of supply shut-ins, we are approaching a storage crisis where all available storage will be filled and the global oil market will “hit the wall”, as WTI did last week.
