  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Indonesia's Pertamina to Sign Agreement with Petronas 19:04, August 06, 2007
    Indonesia's Pertamina to sign agreement with Petronas 19:04, August 06, 2007 Indonesia's state-owned oil and gas company Pertamina will likely sign a joint venture agreement with its Malaysian and Vietnamese counterparts later this month to jointly explore and develop hydrocarbon resources, local press said Monday. Pertamina and Malaysia's Petronas and PetroVietnam recently have finalized negotiations on joint exploration in Randu Gunting block in East Java, which is estimated to contain 600 million barrels of oil and 1.7 trillion cubic feet of gas, reported English daily The Jakarta Post. The three parties will establish a joint venture company, called the PCPP Joint Operating Company, to operate the block, it said. Pertamina will have a 40 percent interest in the joint venture firm, while Petronas and PetroVietnam hold a 30 percent stake each, it said, quoting Pertamina president director Ari Sumarno. In early 2002, Pertamina, Petronas and PetroVietnam signed a Tripartite Cooperation Arrangement to jointly explore oil and gas in their respective countries as part of an economic cooperation under the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations. As part of the tripartite deals, the three companies had agreed to jointly develop oil blocks in Malaysia and Vietnam. An agreement signed in 2002 set up the development of Block 10 and 11.1 in offshore Vietnam and in June 2003, they signed another agreement to develop hydrocarbon resources in Block SK305 in offshore Sarawak, Malaysia and the Randu block in Indonesia. The negotiation to carry out a joint exploration in Indonesia had been stalled because of the Malaysian and Vietnamese companies ' opposition to the production sharing scheme (PSC) applied by Indonesia.

    Quadrennial Technology Review 2015 Chapter 7: Advancing Systems and Technologies to Produce Cleaner Fuels Supplemental Information Oil and Gas Technologies Subsurface Science, Technology, and Engineering U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Quadrennial Technology Review 2015 Oil and Gas Technologies Chapter 7: Advancing Systems and Technologies to Produce Cleaner Fuels Oil and Gas in the Energy Economy of the United States Fossil fuel resources account for 82% of total U.S. primary energy use because they are abundant, have a relatively low cost of production, and have a high energy density—enabling easy transport and storage. The infrastructure built over decades to supply fossil fuels is the world’s largest enterprise with the largest market capitalization. Of fossil fuels, oil and natural gas make up 63% of energy usage.1 Across the energy economy, the source and mix of fuels used across these sectors is changing, particularly the rapid increase in natural gas production from unconventional resources for electricity generation and the rapid increase in domestic production of shale oil. While oil and gas fuels are essential for the United States’ and the global economy, they also pose challenges: Economic: They must be delivered to users and the markets at competitive prices that encourage economic growth. High fuel prices and/or price volatility can impede this progress. Security: They must be available to the nation in a reliable, continuous way that supports national security and economic needs. Disruption of international fuel supply lines presents a serious geopolitical risk. Environment: They must be supplied and used in ways that have minimal environmental impacts on local, national, and global ecosystems and enables their sustainability.
