1 Projekt Kawerny/Project Caverns: Establishing a Strategic Petroleum Reserve for Poland Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer Panel: Market Structure, Regulatory Policy and Infrastructure Development Conference hosted by James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy, Rice University In coordination with The Embassy of the Republic of Poland to the United States Houston,19th October, 2011

2 Projekt Kawerny/Project Caverns Key Partners: Grupa LOTOS and PERN. Objective: Salt Dome Storage Facilities. 7 million m 3 capacity (1-st phase, with expanding potential to even 20 million m 3 ). 54 caverns, 100,000 m 3 each. Location: Pomerania, Poland (near Gdańsk/Baltic Coast). Estimated Investment: $500 million. Endorsed/Directed by the Government of Poland. Commercially Viable. Enhance Poland s and Regional Energy Security. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 2/19

3 Salt caverns energy security & diversification LOTOS Vertically integrated oil concern Refinery in Gdańsk (200,000 bpd capacity). >$7 billion in annual revenues. Just completed 10+ Program. Increased refinery capacity from 6 mtpa to more than 10 mtpa. Increased share of middle distillates (diesel, jet) in refinery production, meeting market needs. Increased value of the company (project value: $2 billion). PERN Main logistics operator in Poland (crude oil and fuels). 100% owned by State of Poland. Operating Polish part of Druzhba Pipeline. Experienced in operations and investments in logistics. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 3/19

4 Underground Storage of Petroleum in Salt Domes Incoming waste Displaced brine Final casing (cemented) Surface casing (cemented) Overlying formations Salt dome formation Annulus Salt cavern Tubing Waste Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 4/19

5 Project history Letter of Intent between LOTOS and PERN was signed on 15 th of June, LOTOS proposes establishing a Polish strategic petroleum reserve leveraging Pomeranian salt caverns. Government of Poland directs OLPP and PERN building salt cavern storage facilities. Central Europe Energy Partners (CEEP) contributes to the validation of project assumptions in early LOTOS and PERN began initial concept development as a team. LOTOS and PERN started to cooperate. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 5/19

6 The Rational: Poland face a shortage in petroleum storage facilities Poland especially needs additional capacities for strategic reserves and commercial reserves. We need to ensure capacity for LOTOS strategic reserves (as obliged by legal regulations) and company s commercial reserves. There are good geological conditions in Pomerania. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 6/19

7 The Rational: Poland face a shortage in petroleum storage facilities Geopolitical situation in countries producers of crude oil and transit countries. Decrease of the dependency level from deliveries of Russian crude oil (appeasment or neutralisation of results of closing Druzhba Pipeline or interferences in Naftoport Harbor operations). Increase of the level of resistance of infrastructure in case of conflict. Poland Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 7/19

8 Salt Caverns offer many advantages Storing energy resources in geological structures is much cheaper than building traditional tanks above the ground.. Salt caverns 30% of above the ground tanks. Decades of experience have proven that salt caverns are an environmentally safe means of petroleum storage. Salt caverns cave serve multiple purposes: Oil, Petroleum products, Natural Gas, CO 2. Salt caverns are more secure against terrorist attacks than traditional means of storage. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 8/19

9 The storage of petroleum and gas is an established practice in the European Union Existing: Manosqua (France): 36 caverns, capacity 16 mln m³, Etzel (Germany): 33 caverns, capacity 14 mln m³, Iceland Rustringen (Germany): 41 caverns, capacity 10 mln m³, Góra (Poland): capacity 3 mln m³. Planned: Gdańsk. Ireland Great Britain Sweden Norway Denmark Netherlands Germany Czech Republic Finland Latvia Lithuania Belarus Poland Ukraine Russia France Switzerland Austria Hungary Romania Portugal Spain Italy Bosn.& Herz. Serbia Bulgaria Albania Turkey Greece Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 9/19

10 The underground salt domes of Poland s Pomeranian region are vast and ideal for storage of oil and other commodities Perspective area in terms of geology and logistic Mechelinki deposit Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 10/19

11 The underground salt domes of Poland s Pomeranian region are vast and situated at the nexus of significant existing and planned petroleum infrastructure Harbour in Gdańsk Russia Planned caverns Rafinery in Gdańsk Rafinery in Płock Druzhba Pipeline Planned Odessa-Brody-Gdańsk Pipeline Ukraine Czech Republic Slovakia Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 11/19

12 Salt Caverns in the Pomeranian region can serve a number of useful commercial purposes Storage of petroleum products. Serve Poland s and the Baltic region s petroleum refineries. Serve as buffer storage for existing pipelines and emergent pipelines (Odessa-Gdańsk). Diversification of supply (the possibility of optimizing the delivery by decrease of dependence on Druzhba Pipeline deliveries and high spot prices). Baltic sea countries may be interested in cost-competitive oil and fuel storage in caverns in Poland: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Germany, Sweden, Finland. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 12/19

13 Project Caverns can strengthen regional energy security by functioning as a strategic petroleum reserve Strategic petroleum reserves complement and reinforce a nation s resilience to oil shocks generated by conflict, environmental disaster and other unexpected events. Project Caverns can serve Polish SPR requirements and be tailored to serve SPR requirements of neighboring countries that do not possess crude oil and natural gas deposits or adequate geological structures suitable for storing energy commodities. As the economies of Poland and the region grow their requirements for SPR will grow commensurately. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 13/19

14 Project Caverns can strengthen regional energy security by functioning as a strategic petroleum reserve Project Caverns can assist Poland and nearby countries to meet their IEA petroleum reserve obligations. Expanding Central European SPR strengthens the political and economic solidarity of the European Union, NATO and the transatlantic community. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 14/19

15 Integral strategy for building energy security Refinery Salt caverns Pipeline, oil terminal Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 15/19

16 Project Caverns: Key Next Steps LOTOS and PERN are preparing a comprehensive report on the SPR system in different countries (e.g. USA, France, Germany) with recommendations of best practices for the Polish Government. The findings will assist the Government of Poland to update its regulation governing the development and management of its SPR. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 16/19

17 Project Caverns: The US-PL Dimension (1) In recent years energy security has risen the top tier of the US-Poland bilateral agenda and the focus of their respective regional agenda. The development and management of strategic petroleum reserves in underground salt dome facilities has been the topic of discussion and cooperation between the USA and Poland but it should be moved up on the priority list of US-Polish cooperation. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 17/19

18 Project Caverns: The US-PL Dimension (2) Project Caverns can benefit from American government and commercial experience and expertise in the development and management of salt cavern storage facilities and SPRs. Cooperation in this regard would facilitate a tangible, environmentally sound, short term and strategically significant project. It would be an enduring demonstration of US-Poland cooperation. The commercial and governmental demand for petroleum storage makes the cavern project a commercially viable one. Project Caverns desires the involvement of American investors and partners that seek long-term take off contracts. Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 18/19

19 Thank you for your attention Paweł Olechnowicz, President of the Board, Chief Executive Officer 19/19
