Dr. Iskander Diyashev
Chief Engineer, Sibneft Member of Russian Academy of Natural Sciences e-mail: [email protected] Summary
• Russia is capable of increasing its oil production to 12 mln bbls per day over the next 7 to 10 years. • This will require about 12 bln $ per year in oilfield CAPEX. • The Russian resource base is much larger than it is commonly believed, at least over 150 bln bbls of oil (not just BOE) Recent past and the future
• Oil production in Russia has grown from 6 to almost 9.4 mmbopd the last 7 years. Exports: 3.7 mmbopd (1H 2005).
• My estimate is that Russian oil production will peak at about 12-12.5 mmbopd (historical maximum of the USSR) during the decade of 2010 to 2020. Available for export 6.7 mmbopd. MajorMajor producingproducing areasareas andand ExplorationExploration maturitymaturity
From Dr. Raymond C. Leonard presentation Future of Russian Oil
• During 2010-2020 the decline of Western Siberian production will be compensated by the development of the new oil fields in Eastern Siberia (available for export 1.1 mmbopd in the Pacific), Timan-Pechora and Russian Arctic offshore (available for export 1.0 mmbopd in the Atlantic). • After 2020 the decline of Western Siberia will not be compensated completely, and it will result in a gentle annual decline of approximately 5%.

Ob and Taz bays Factors Needed for Continued Growth of the Russian Oil Industry
• Technology evolution of the upstream of the entire Russian oil industry (from the best examples of Yukos, Sibneft, TNK-BP) • Competitive, clear and transparent licensing rules that would open the Barents Sea and Timan-Pechora, East Siberia and the Russian Arctic offshore for exploration and production • Construction of major pipelines to Murmansk and the Far East How much money will the growth cost?
• Extrapolating from today’s performance of the best operators it will take about $12 bln per year • Total CAPEX 2003 Yukos, Sibneft and Slavneft was about $2 bln • However the development of Eastern Siberia will require larger investments Why is it relatively inexpensive?
• New strategy for field development • Fewer wells and better wells (stimulations and horizontals) • Well targets defined by advanced reservoir modeling • Produce every well up to its full potential Sibneft Upstream overview of operations

• The Production Activation Index, Ip, is an indicator of the required investment to add one new barrel of oil in daily production in a given petroleum province. • For example, a typical West Texas well that may cost $500,000 but produces only 50 STB/d has an activation index equal to $10,000/STB/d. • Excellent infrastructure and work force, good and non- corrupted management practices reduce the activation index. j n 1 1 ⎛ − d)1( ⎞ k p = CFATPI [***365 + ∑⎜ ⎟ + i)1/(] + )1( − di )1( j=2 ⎝ + i)1( ⎠
