  • 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.

  • LNG Review February 2020 - Recent Issues and Events - Hiroshi Hashimoto∗
    IEEJ：March 2020 © IEEJ2020 LNG Review February 2020 - Recent issues and events - Hiroshi Hashimoto∗ Introduction Signs of bearishness in the LNG industry were observed on February 2020. The new coronavirus is expected to slash gas demand in China and then Japan. The author estimates that the cumulative demand reduction in China would be more than 3 million tonnes of LNG equivalent for the first three months of the year. It is still too early to assess the quantitative impact the Japanese market. But even before the coronavirus crisis, Japan's LNG import in January 2020 was 7.513 million tonnes, smaller than the same month in 2012 for thirteen straight months and smaller than the same month one year earlier for four straight months. The five biggest international upstream - also the biggest in the LNG industry - majors reported their respective 2019 performances, which all included decline in profits, compared to one year earlier. In terms of gas production, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) of the United States expects in its STEO (Short-term Energy Outlook) dry gas production in the country to fall from an estimated 95.4 Bcf/d in January to 92.5 Bcf/d in December 2020 and in 2021 to stabilize at an annual average of 92.6 Bcf/d (703 million tonnes per year), a 2% decline from 2020 (94.2 Bcf/d), which would be the first decline in annual average natural gas production since 2016. Some players may respond to their favourable conditions in the market. Some LNG importers in India issued a string of tenders seeking to buy tens of cargoes on the short-term basis.

  • China's Strategy to Secure Natural Resources
    In Brief Policy Analysis in International Economics 92 China’s Strategy to Secure Natural Resources: Risks, Dangers, and Opportunities Theodore H. Moran • July 2010 • 66 pp • ISBN 978-0-88132-512-6 • $19.95 The rapid emergence of China as a major industrial power poses a complex challenge for the world’s natural resource markets. On the demand side, Chinese appetite for vast amounts of energy and minerals puts tremendous strain on the international supply system. On the supply side, Chinese efforts to procure raw materials can either exacerbate or help solve the problems of high demand. Backed by the Chinese government, Chinese companies have been acquiring equity stakes in natural resource companies, extending loans to mining and petroleum investors, and writing long- term procurement contracts for oil and minerals. These activities have aroused concern that China might be locking up natural resource supplies, gaining preferential access to available output, and expanding control over the world’s extractive industries. Do Chinese equity acquisitions, loans, and long-term procurement contracts help consolidate a tightly concen- trated supply base by securing preferential access for Chinese buyers, or do they help multiply sources and diversify the supply base, making the provision of output more competitive for all buyers? Which outcome Chinese procurement arrangements generate depends upon whether those arrangements basically solidify a concentrated global supplier system (and enhance Chinese ownership/control within that concentrated supplier system) or expand, diversify, and make more competitive the global supply system (and use Chinese ownership/control as a lever for such expansion, diversification, and enhanced competition).

  • Press Release
    Embargoed: Monday 7 September 2009, 0900 GMT (1000 in UK; 1200 in Kenya/Sudan) Oil production figures underpinning Sudan’s peace agreement don’t add up, warns Global Witness The 2005 peace agreement between north and south Sudan, which brought to an end one of Africa’s longest-running and most bloody wars, was based on an agreement to share oil revenues. However, new evidence uncovered by Global Witness raises serious questions about whether the revenues are being shared fairly. ”If the oil figures published by the Khartoum government aren’t right, the division of the money from that oil between north and south Sudan won’t be right,” said Global Witness [1] campaigner Rosie Sharpe. The Global Witness report, Fuelling Mistrust: the need for transparency in Sudan’s oil industry, is the first public analysis of Sudan’s oil figures. It documents how the oil figures published by the Government of National Unity in Khartoum are smaller than the equivalent figures published by the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), the operator of the oil blocks. While the respective figures for the only block located entirely in the north, and therefore not subject to revenue sharing, approximately match, those for blocks which are subject to revenue sharing do not. There were discrepancies of [2]: • 9% for the Greater Nile Petroleum Operating Company’s blocks in 2007 • 14% for the Petrodar Operating Company’s blocks in 2007 • 26% for the Greater Nile Petroleum Operating Company and Petro Energy’s blocks in 2005 These findings cover six of the seven productive oil blocks in Sudan.

  • A Taxonomic Revision of Macrolenes (Melastomataceae)
    Gardens’ Bulletin Singapore 71 (1): 185–241. 2019 185 doi: 10.26492/gbs71(1).2019-12 A taxonomic revision of Macrolenes (Melastomataceae) A. Kartonegoro1,2, P. Hovenkamp1, P.C. van Welzen1,3 1Naturalis Biodiversity Center, P.O. Box 9517, 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands [email protected]. 2Research Center for Biology, Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI), Jl. Jakarta-Bogor KM.46, Cibinong 16911, Indonesia. 3Institute of Biology Leiden (IBL), Leiden University, P.O. Box 9505, 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands. ABSTRACT. Macrolenes (Melastomataceae: Dissochaeteae), a genus of woody climbers in Malesia, is taxonomically revised. Seventeen species are recognised, of which three are new to science. The genus is characterised by its scrambling habit, a pair of hair cushion domatia on the base of the leaves, axillary inflorescences, and fimbriate connective appendages on the alternipetalous stamens. An identification key, nomenclature, descriptions, typification, geographic distributions and taxonomic notes are provided. The affinities with Dissochaeta, also woody climbers, are discussed. Keywords. Dissochaeta, Dissochaeteae, Macrolenes, Malesia, Melastomataceae, revision, taxonomy Introduction Macrolenes Naudin is a genus of woody climbers distributed strictly in the Malesian region. The genus is allied to Dissochaeta Blume; both are characterised by a scrambling growth habit, opposite phyllotaxy sometimes with interpetiolar outgrowths, flowers 4-merous, 2 whorls of dimorphic stamens and berry-like fruits. Macrolenes and Dissochaeta are classified in tribe Dissochaeteae (Naudin) Triana (Bakhuizen van den Brink, 1943; Maxwell, 1984; Clausing & Renner, 2001), but are sometimes also considered to be part of tribe Miconieae (Naudin, 1851; Miquel, 1855; Renner, 1993). The last complete revision of Macrolenes was by Bakhuizen van den Brink (1943) and some notes were published by Nayar (1980).

  • Oil and Violence in Sudan Drilling, Poverty and Death in Upper Nile State by Egbert Wesselink and Evelien Weller
    Multinational Monitor MAY/JUNE 2006 VOL 27 No. 3 Oil and Violence in Sudan Drilling, Poverty and Death in Upper Nile State by Egbert Wesselink and Evelien Weller The discovery of oil in a developing country can be a blessing or a curse. In Sudan’s case, oil exploration and development has helped fuel vicious warfare. The 2005 Sudan Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA), which brokered an end to fighting between the Sudanese government and the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM), offers a framework to depart from that brutal legacy, but so far its promise has not been realized. Sudan’s largest oil field is located in Western Upper Nile, southeast of the capital, Khartoum. Most of the international focus on the intersection of oil and violence in Sudan has been directed towards this area. But oil development is now proceeding rapidly in another oil field east of there, in the Melut Basin in Upper Nile State, with a disturbingly similar story line. Areas that the government has designated concession blocs 3 and 7 lie in this region. They are located in Melut and Maban Counties, in Renk District. Oil development rights for these concession blocs are currently held by the Petrodar Operating Company Ltd. (PDOC) under an Exploration and Production Sharing Agreement with the Sudanese government. The Petrodar Operating Company is jointly owned by the China National Petroleum Company (CNPC, 41 percent), Petroliam Nasional Berhad (Petronas of Malaysia, 40 percent), Sudan Petroleum Company (Sudapet, 8 percent), China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (Sinopec, 6 percent), and Al Thani Corporation (United Arab Emirates, 5 percent).
