IntroductionEnergy Policy Research Foundation Inc.

(EPRINC), formerly the Petroleum Industry ResearchFoundation Inc. (PIRINC)Founded in NY in 1944 Moved to Washington from NYC in Feb

2007 EPRINC brings policy analysis and

industry economics to bear on currentenergy issues

TOPICS FOR TODAY

EPRINC’s Perspective on Structure and Pricing in the Upstream CrudeMarket (some history is useful)

Why Are Crude Prices So High Today?

What Does History and the Structure of the Crude Oil Market Tell UsAbout Policy Choices (and what is the problem we are trying tofix?)

Assessments of Trends in US and World Petroleum Product Markets

4

1973-74 Arab Oil Embargo

NOT AN EMBARGO, but instead a

•Structural Shift in Ownership and Control of the Resources of theMiddle East

•Fundamental Change in Expectations on Production from Middle EastProducers

As an Embargo it was a failure, market was integrated (lesson not yetlearned by Chavez)

5

1979 Price 1979 Price ““ShockShock””

OIL MARKET WAS NOT FRAGILE, but instead there was a shift in:OIL MARKET WAS NOT FRAGILE, but instead there was a shift in:

••expectations regarding regional risk; i.e. more riskyexpectations regarding regional risk; i.e. more risky

••Prospects for future output from Iran and Iraq were reducedProspects for future output from Iran and Iraq were reducedsubstantially, i.e., access to those reserves would now besubstantially, i.e., access to those reserves would now bedelayeddelayed

6

1986 Price Collapse Saudi Arabia abandons role as swing producer at low levels

of net demand for SA crude

Shift in expectations on Saudi decision making within OPECand as regulator of world oil market

Sustained reduction in oil use as a percentage of GNP inmajor Western countries

12

What Does the Permian and San Joaquin Tell UsAbout the Hubbard Predictions

Knowledge and technology grow overtime

Big payoff to long term access to bothexisting and new oil provinces

More importantly Hubbard Method doesnot reveal………… The Backstop Price Total Recovery

13

WHAT DOES THIS ANALYSIS TELL US ABOUT THE ENERGY SECURITYPROBLEM?

Current Market Price Probably Tied to a “Perfect Storm” ofUnfortunate Events – More Than Declining Reserves (Peak Oil)

Longer Term Energy Security Problem Remains “A Concentration ofLow Cost Reserves Among Relatively Few Players.”

This Concentration of Low Cost Reserves Poses Risks to the US(wealth transfers, price spikes)

Focus on Import Dependence Not Likely to Fundamentally AddressEnergy Security Problem and Can Be Costly. Policy Focus Shouldbe On Reducing Vulnerability.

What Would be the Elements of an Effective Strategy Given ThisAnalysis?

Operable Capacity

Operable Refineries

* Many sub-economic, little ref ineries could not make

unleaded gasoline.

* Small unit issues: population shif t and US crude supply

runs out

20

U.S. Oil Refineries History:1970 - Present

1970s: The Small Refiner Bias in the 1973 price control programencouraged the building of excess small refineries.

1979: Price controls end. 1980-1990: Rationalization of refining.

Closure of small, uneconomic units - adversely impacted bypopulation and crude supply shifts.

Capacity at existing, better-located facilities expanded. Remaining refinery campuses become bigger, more efficient.

Mid-1990s: Capacity grows; demand grows faster. 2000s: More investment needed to expand existing refineries.

Regulatory issues Capital requirements and investment decisions

What happened to “Refining’s Golden Age?”

US Ethanol Consumption

32

US Ethanol Consumption:2000 - Present Quick ramp-up made it look easy—but really was displacement of

MTBE Ethanol does not displace much foreign oil. 6 bil gallons per year of

ethanol saves approx 100 million bbls of oil. Corn prices have risen from $1.60 to $6.00. How much attributable to

ethanol driven demand? $1.00? $2.00? At $1.00/bu, oil saved cost $130/bbl; at $2.00/bu, the figure is $230 per

bbl. Current Ethanol Economics Looks Dicey—With high corn prices, low

fuel ethanol prices, existing plants earn losses. Existing plants have 7 bil gal capacity; mandate calls for 2 bil more Plants under construction and planned may not be completed/brought

on line If corn prices remain stable at current levels, ethanol prices must rise

by at least $0.50 per gallon in order for ethanol to be sufficientlyprofitable to attract investment.

More capacity needed to meet 9 bil gal mandate for 2008
