EU Finance Restrictions
Yes Yes Yes
EU Technology Restirctions
Yes Yes Yes • • • • • US and EU sanctions ban transfer of technology for use in Arctic, deep water offshore (>500 feet) and for shale oil development Financial restrictions on access to capital markets – 90 day debt maturity in US, 30 days in EU Rosneft and GazpromNeft the main overlap. No financial restrictions on Gazprom, Novatek hit hard by inclusion on US list Russian banks also targeted with 30 day debt maturity rule in both areas Importantly Australia, Canada, Japan and Norway have also introduced sanctions

Maintaining oil production above 10mmbpd is becoming a key challenge Slow growth from current levels (10.6mmbpd) had been expected This now seems unlikely as new fields are postponed Long-term challenge to enhance existing fields and develop new regions using advanced technology and international experience

• • Arctic development a prestige political project for Russia as well as a long term production solution Opportunity to develop world-leading technology in partnership with IOCs and establish important presence in emerging new region • Rosneft will not be able to move forward with plans without IOC support, both financial and technical
Tight oil in Russia will be delayed despite continued enthusiasm

• • • • Russia has the largest shale oil resources in the world Bazhenov shale has been know about for years, but foreign partnership needed to exploit it successfully Shell, Exxon, Statoil, Total and BP have all formed JVs, now on hold Russian service companies cannot offer adequate equipment

Brownfield recovery through EOR is still possible, but western service companies are needed
Russia’s oil is getting more difficult
Reserves Production • Difficult to recover reserves account for 62% of Russian total • IEA estimates that EOR could account for 500kbpd of output by 2030

• Tertiary methods gradually being introduced as tax incentives increase • International techniques brought by IOCs and service companies – 95% of horizontal wells drilled by international service companies • Confusion over exact impact of sanctions here – Clarity still being sought concerning equipment with dual uses
Rosneft faces testing financial issues
Rosneft Debt Profile… …and Repayment Schedule
• • • • Rosneft has $66 billion of outstanding debt, of which half needs to be repaid inside two years Ministry of Economic Development believes that access to capital markets could occur in 2016/17 at the earliest Rosneft has applied to National Wealth Fund for more than 2 trillion RUR (c.$44bn) Company is already being forced to re-prioritise projects and seek new partners
Previous gas market developments – rise of Novatek and Rosneft 650
Gazprom output in long term decline… …due in part to increasing domestic competition

Gazprom faces an uncertain future in Europe – but continued significant gas sales seem inevitable Europe’s Trilemma Energy Security Environment What is Russia’s role?

The EU appears split over the desirable place for Russian gas as a source of imports – the South Stream debate has highlighted the dilemma Russia’s competitive commercial position is very strong – it has excess gas at a low cost of supply
Russia has called Europe’s bluff and re-focussed on Turkey

Russia wants to balance exports between Europe and Asia

The switch to Asia triggered a move to LNG, but this has now reverted to a pipeline export strategy Shtokman - 15mmtpa in Phase 1?

Consolidation of state control in the oil and gas sector is an ever increasing theme • • • • • Rosneft and Igor Sechin remain very influential, especially in the oil sector Bashneft example demonstrates that loyalty to the current administration is paramount Competition between domestic companies is being discouraged; reform is not on the agenda Rosneft and Gazprom remain at war, but have bee constrained by sanctions and Russian “fortress” mentality Budget revenues under threat from lower oil price, meaning that pipeline gas exports need to become more important over time
