North American shale oil perspective

Transcription

1 North American shale oil perspective A unique perspective on the evolution of the North America shale oil market to 225, combining data and insights from a suite of advanced energy market forecasting analytics Sample report based on findings from our North American Shale Oil Outlook to 225

2 Recent development in the Permian, driven by favorable economic conditions, is leading the new growth in the North American shale oil market Key insights

3 1 US shale oil production will reach ~9 Mb/d by 225 US shale oil production will reach ~9 Mb/d by 225, but production can vary by 5.4 Mb/d depending on oil price scenarios. 2 The Permian's core breakeven is less than $41/bbl in 217 Low breakeven is enabling the Permian to remain profitable despite well cost increases of 3%. 3 The Permian is experiencing 1x the IP of Eagle Ford and Bakken combined The Permian s IP growth rate for the past five years was 2% compared to Eagle Ford and Bakken (2%), and the Permian has more remaining drilling locations as it is still in the early development stage. 4 Total capex will grow at 25% p.a. through 221 Increased drilling and completion activity will require total capex spend to grow to near 214 spend levels; however, production will have nearly doubled since Drilling and completions to grow by 2% p.a through 221 Under the base Price Recovery scenario (WTI $6-7/bbl from 219 onward), drilling and completions are expected to grow rapidly at 2% p.a., and production will grow at 12% p.a. through 221.

4 North American shale oil is a technology-driven success story However, it created an oil oversupply that led to an oil price fall of 5%, and an active rig fleet fall of 8% from 2Q14 to 1Q16. Midland basin oil IP growth factors bbl/day +33% Since 2Q16, spurred by price recovery, drilling activity has more than doubled. Key operational improvements are helping the shale oil industry endure low oil prices in this dynamic market environment. Despite possible short-term constraints of capital, rig, and labor availability, the market is poised for a new chapter of growth, driven by activity in the Permian. Key operational improvements such as improving efficiencies, completion design, and high-grading have sustained and will continue to drive growth despite the foreseeable cost escalation of 15-25% in the next two years. Operators have reduced drilling days by five days while improving IP by 33% from 214 to Longer laterals Midland basin drilling days Number of days by year Highgrading -8% p.a.

5 Low service costs have enabled high-proppant experimentation Improved completions design (e.g. high proppant wells) Water usage Sand usage Million gallons Million lbs 1 1 Low service costs have enabled high-proppant experimentation. When higher activity levels put inflationary pressure on completion costs, the benefit from higher IP diminishes.

8 Going forward Going forward, under the base Price Recovery scenario (WTI $6-7/bbl from 219 onward), drilling and completions are expected to grow rapidly at 2% p.a., and production will grow at 12% p.a. through 221, then plateau thereafter. Increased drilling and completion activity will require total capex spend to approach 214 levels; however, production will have nearly doubled since % p.a.
