The ‘lucky country’ as it were, relies entirely on sea lines of communication to the north to supply fuel and to export Australian coal and natural gas. Australia has entered the 2020s as the world’s largest liquefied natural gas (LNG) exporter; however, maintaining complacency in Canberra’s current export activities will ultimately lead to a long-term security crisis. Australia lacks institutional insight into Russian energy interests in Canberra’s prime energy market—the Asia-Pacific. This book seeks to fill this knowledge gap by providing policymakers, academics and tertiary-level students with up-to-date insight and analysis of Russia’s foreign energy strategy in the region. By comparing and contrasting this to Australia’s energy security over-reliance throughout the Asia-Pacific region (APR), this book highlights serious energy security concerns on the not too distant horizon. The concept of energy security is an age-old challenge for national strategy and, for Daniel Yergin, it consistently elicits ‘new answers’.1 A constantly evolving issue, energy security is shaped by both internal state forces and external international ones. With an array of definitions and priorities, most experts at least agree on the fact that global energy demand is continuing to increase in step with dwindling known supplies of existing energy resources. Put simply, ‘easy access’ to ‘known’ or ‘proven’ energy reserves (namely hydrocarbons—oil and natural gas) is getting harder. Existing wells are dry and explored energy frontiers are in technically challenging and financially prohibitive spaces, such as the 1 Daniel Yergin, ‘Ensuring Energy Security’, Foreign Affairs, March/April 2006, doi.org/10.2307/ 20031912. 1 RUSSIAN ENERGY StrategY IN THE ASIA-PACIFIC offshore Arctic Ocean. Some of the ‘new answers’ to this challenge include renewable energy sources and the development of non-traditional energy ventures. While there are various definitions of energy security, common components include: • secure, uninterrupted supply of energy resources

  • Geopolitical Impact on Transformation of Territorial Organization of Russian Pipeline Transport in the Post-Soviet Time
    International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy ISSN: 2146-4553 available at http: www.econjournals.com International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy, 2016, 6(4), 782-788. Geopolitical Impact on Transformation of Territorial Organization of Russian Pipeline Transport in the Post-Soviet Time Tatyana I. Pototskaya1*, Alexander P. Katrovskiy2, Vladimir I. Chasovskiy3 1Department of Geography, Natural-Geographical Faculty, Smolensk State University, Smolensk Oblast, Russia, 2Department of Service and Tourism, Smolensk Humanitarian University, Smolensk, Russia, 3Department of Geography, Land Use and Spatial Planning, Institute of Environmental Management, Territorial Development and Urban Construction, Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University, Russia. *Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The article presents the research on transformation of territorial organization of Russian pipeline transport in the post-Soviet time, considering its relations with neighbouring countries. The research identifies general ways of such transformation: The influence of Russia’s desire to escape from the dictate of the transit countries exporting energy; the impact of Russia’s struggle for the transportation of gas and oil extracted in the Caspian Sea basin; the influence of the struggle for the transportation of oil and gas in the Asia-Pacific region. A new database including the main pipelines and sea ports in Russia, revealed correlations in the development of pipeline transport in the post-Soviet period with the development of infrastructure of the country’s sea transport. The article identifies positive changes in the transport infrastructure (construction of Russian alternative pipeline projects), which will reduce the degree of Russian dependence on relations with neighbouring countries, as well as negative changes (construction of alternative Russian pipeline projects).

  • Hydrogen at the Gates: Towards a New Chapter in the EU-Russia Energy Relations
    Hydrogen at the Gates: Towards a New Chapter in the EU-Russia Energy Relations by Aliaksei Patonia Having ratified the Paris Agreement, the European Union (EU) pledged to substantially lower the level of its carbon emissions and become climate-neutral by 2050. In this respect, hydrogen (H2) – an energy source that could prospectively substitute conventional hydrocarbons – is viewed as an important element in achieving these ambitious targets, as it could revolutionize the energy industry. Here, though the EU puts specific attention to the build-up of H2 generation based on renewables, the cheapest way of its current large-scale production is using natural gas as a feedstock – the fuel imported primarily from Russia. This tradeoff between costs and climate commitments makes the future of the EU-Russia energy relations particularly tricky. EU’s Hydrogen Strategy vs. Russia’s ‘Hydrogen Roadmap’ Since energy production and consumption are the largest sources of CO2 emissions in the EU- 271, meeting the climate targets will necessitate a comprehensive transformation of the energy sector. Nevertheless, the energy industries in most European countries are still extensively reliant on hydrocarbons, in general (Figure 1), and natural gas, in particular, most of which is supplied by Russia. That is why, shifting the European economic paradigm towards sustainability is likely to necessitate the review of the EU-Russia energy relations, since Russia’s little focus on climate policy. 1 EEA (2013) 1 Figure 1: EU energy imports from Russia and energy mix2 Though, within the EU, reaching climate neutrality – i.e. the economy with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions – is generally viewed through decarbonization (the substitution of fossil fuels by renewables)3, the intermittency of wind and solar power necessitates finding a way to store large volumes of energy for a long time so that they could be integrated into the energy system4.

  • Russian Oil and Gas Challenges
    Order Code RL33212 Russian Oil and Gas Challenges Updated June 20, 2007 Robert Pirog Specialist in Energy Economics and Policy Resources, Science, and Industry Division Russian Oil and Gas Challenges Summary Russia is a major player in world energy markets. It has more proven natural gas reserves than any other country, is among the top ten in proven oil reserves, is the largest exporter of natural gas, the second largest oil exporter, and the third largest energy consumer. Energy exports have been a major driver of Russia’s economic growth over the last five years, as Russian oil production has risen strongly and world oil prices have been very high. This type of growth has made the Russian economy dependent on oil and natural gas exports and vulnerable to fluctuations in oil prices. The Russian government has moved to take control of the country’s energy supplies. It broke up the previously large energy company Yukos and acquired its main oil production subsidiary. The Duma voted to give Gazprom, the state- controlled natural gas monopoly the exclusive right to export natural gas; Russia moved to limit participation by foreign companies in oil and gas production and Gazprom gained majority control of the Sakhalin energy projects. Russia has agreed with Germany to supply Germany and, eventually, the UK by building a natural gas pipeline under the Baltic Sea, bypassing Ukraine and Poland. In late 2006 and early 2007, Russia cut off and/or threatened to cut off gas or oil supplies going to and/or through Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, and Belarus in the context of price and/or transit negotiations — actions that damaged its reputation as a reliable energy supplier.

Keeping An Eye [email protected] Export Infrastructure On Budgeting Process For Arctic 2 Greg Wasikowski, CFA Funding Hot Potato May Be A Drag On Operational Timeline 646-993-0694 [email protected] Who Picks Up The Check For Arctic 2? The timeline for Novatek’s high-profile Arctic Export Infrastructure LNG 2 (19.8mpta) may have hit a modest speedbump, as the ~$1.9BN request to help Chris Tsung, CFA 646-998-8290 finance critical aspects of Arctic 2 [the Utrenneye LNG terminal on Gydan peninsula (page [email protected] 4), and reloading terminals in Murmansk (for European cargoes) and Kamchatka (for Asia cargoes)] are absent from Russia’s 2020 draft budget. While the project has Use already reached a positive FID, and is clearly a national priority – we think it’s worth watching whether any squabble over the ultimate funding source ends up delaying its operational timeline (which is already ambitious). The primary options appeared to be (1) the state budget (absent), or (2) funding from the ~$124B National Wealth Fund, which appears to be a more complicated and competitive process (below). Considering that Arctic 2 is being used as a fulcrum to revitalize/create local content industries - For including the Zvvezda shipyard for the required LNG carriers (Arc-7s or similar - which cost ~$350MM each in Korea) and some local fabrication of key equipment, we ultimately expect continued sovereign support. However, given narrower pricing/economics and (potentially) some budgeting hot-potato, we think its worth watching the Arctic 2 operational timeline.

The diesel was loaded on 4 May on the 113,300t Dong-A Thetis, owned by the South Korean shipping company Dong-A Tanker. The 100,000t cargo of Rosneft product was sold to trading company Vitol for delivery to the Amsterdam-Rotter- dam-Antwerp region, a market participant says. The Dong-A Thetis was loaded at Russian pipeline crude exports berth 3 or 4 — which can handle crude and diesel following a recent upgrade, and mn b/d can accommodate 90,000-150,000t vessels with 15.5m draught. 6.0 Transit crude Russian crude It remains unclear whether larger loadings at Primorsk will become a regular 5.0 occurrence. “Smaller 50,000-60,000t cargoes are more popular and the terminal 4.0 does not always have the opportunity to stockpile larger quantities of diesel for 3.0 export,” a source familiar with operations at the outlet says.
