2 Demand of Fossil Fuels as Source of Energy Continues to Grow to support the Power Generation, Industry and Transportation needs World Energy Demand By Primary Use By Fuel Oil Production Oil Consumption - World demand for energy continues to grow. Asia Pacific - Fossil fuel will still be the dominant source of energy. - Gas is growing very fast. - Increasing demand drives the development and production of oil and gas reserves. - Rapid increase in the consumption of oil as source of energy in the Asia region. - China economic growth is driving the rise of demand of LNG in China. - Demand of LNG in Japan is expected to be constant despite nuclear restart

3 Challenges for Technology from Business Strategy Point of View Local content requirement for local ownership of operations Transfer of knowledge and capability to domestic industry Stricter country regulations Energy change & climate policy Stricter emission standards for CO2 and other gas emissions for operators Shifting policy towards diversification of national energy mix Field/Asset complexity Complex geological formation which is compatible with current technology Asset Integrity and safety Source: SPE 2010 R&D in the Energy Industry

4 PETRONAS EP undertakes focused technology developments in several focus areas to Address the Challenges Example Lowering Costs Increasing Efficiency Creating Game-changers EOR GEO-IMAGING CO2 MANAGEMENT OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE Field Chemicals Produced Water Management Gas Clouds Salt/PreSalt Seismic Reservoir Characterization 4D Reservoir Monitoring Membrane Systems Cryogenics Pretreatments Systems Pipeline Rehabilitation New Materials Intelligent Drilling EM Transmitter DEMULSIFIER / DEOILER SELECTION DEFOAMER SELECTION
