With Petroleum Economist celebrating its 90th anniversary, listen to oil experts discuss the history of oil markets as they take you on a journey of evolving power relationship, the complex web of global energy geopolitics and how oil reshaped the energy landscape. When Petroleum Economist began in the 1930s it was the “Seven Sisters” that dominated oil production and since then there has been the birth of OPEC and OPEC+, the rise of US shale, a brutal set of wars, changing economic elites, the emergence of the Dated Brent oil market and now what may be defined as age of the energy trilemma. Join Adi Imsirovic, Kurt Chapman and Paul Horsnell on-demand they discuss how oil’s past continues to shape the present and what it teaches us for the future.

The US is on track to become the world's largest LNG exporter in 2023. Recent expansion saw the US liquefied gas sector leapfrog Australia and challenge Qatar for the top spot. Rising American volumes are driving shifts in LNG markets and have proved a vital lifeline for Europe as the continent tries to weather an energy crisis. As the US continues to expand gas production and export infrastructure, Petroleum Economist explored the future of US LNG and how the global LNG market was shifting in response. 

 

Europe’s policy-makers and energy industry finds its self in new territory as it pivots away from Russian gas. Old pipeline projects are being discarded as attention turns to the new infrastructure that needs to be in place to secure gas from elsewhere. The bloc is now competing with Asia for LNG, weighing up the right tactics to buy cargoes, looking at new sources of supply from US, Qatar and beyond and exploring opportunities close to home across North Africa and the East Med. But will short-term energy security concerns leave much of Europe with a largely redundant insurance policy by the end of the decade as the region transitions away from fossil fuels? Or will gas play a crucial role in its energy mix given questions over the reliability of renewables in the long-term? Are the costs being incurred now worth it to ensure immediate supplies for the next couple of years and how useful will the additional infrastructure be further out? Is gas a primary fuel for Europe, a bridging fuel, a transition fuel or a back-up fuel and over what time period?  And how will Europe approach buying gas from flexible suppliers like the US or more Asian-focused Qatar used to more long-term contracts?  Is there a risk of Europe being underbuilt for the next couple of winters and overbuilt beyond that or is that a false narrative? Watch this PE Live Webcast on-demand as they solved these questions and went beyond the insights to provide an in-depth analysis of the situation Europe finds itself in.

A new dynamic has arisen in the global LNG market since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, pitting Asia's large-scale consumers against a newly gas-hungry Europe in competition for seaborne supply. Last winter was seen as crunch time, but the global market narrowly avoided gas shortages and renewed LNG price spikes thanks to the combination of a mild winter in the northern hemisphere, demand reduction measures, ample inventories and short-term ramp-ups in production. Since the winter, LNG prices have continued to moderate, which could give the impression that the time of crisis has passed. But significant risks still persist.  China, Japan and South Korea are the three top LNG importers in the world, so how are these LNG market giants preparing for next winter? Will the price-responsive, swing consumers of South Asia be squeezed out once more by the global competition for gas? Last year's volatility disrupted the LNG-to-power ambitions of emerging southeast Asian markets, particularly Vietnam, but what are the region's demand prospects now? And looking further ahead, how is Asian import capacity set to grow over the remainder of this decade? On the supply side, how much net capacity growth has taken place and how much of that additional volume is likely to make its way to Asia? And out to 2030, how much production capacity is on pace to join the global market?

The race is on to develop the North Sea’s vast potential as a carbon store as policymakers acknowledge the key role of CCS in achieving net-zero. Multiple projects are underway as oil and gas operators and other developers jostle for position in northern Europe’s emerging carbon management sector. In this webinar, Peregrine Bush, Stuart Penson and Kevin Price explored the key projects in the North Sea and discussed the opportunities and challenges presented by this growing sector.

Join industry leaders from Deloitte to explore opportunities for oil and gas companies to develop strategies. Geopolitical events and economic uncertainty contributed to volatile energy prices across the globe in 2022. Despite record energy prices and low valuations, M&A activity in the oil and gas (O&G) sector fell to its lowest level since 2008.  This contradiction is explained in part by the end of the long-standing correlation between M&A activity and oil prices as O&G companies remain committed to capital discipline. Instead, free cash flows have been directed toward paying dividends and doing buybacks. The old drivers of M&A activity such as investing and acquiring for growth and increasing market share seem to have been replaced by new drivers. 

On December 13, 2022, the Israeli Ministry of Energy announced the 4th Offshore Bid Round (OBR4) for hydrocarbon exploration in the Israeli EEZ portion of the Eastern Mediterranean, Levant basin.

During the past two decades multi-tcf discoveries were made in this basin, now considered to be a hotspot for gas exploration, in the vicinity of European markets. Israeli natural gas is providing most of the country’s energy production and a significant amount is being exported to neighbouring countries. The Ministry aims to expand this activity based on large, yet-to-find potential that exists offshore Israel. This PE Live Webcast is hosted by Peter Ramsay, Director, Subscriptions & Data of Gulf Energy Info, in conversation with Chen Bar-Yosef, Petroleum Commissioner and Director of the Natural Resources Administration, Ministry of Energy, Dr. Michael Gardosh, Chief Geologist, Petroleum Unit, Ministry of Energy, Sagi Ganot, Head of Regulation & Trade, Petroleum Unit, Ministry of Energy, Dr. Nick Stronach, Senior Geoscientist, GaffneyCline, and Bob Fryklund, Chief Strategist Upstream, S&P Global. During this webcast, they will be discussing the details of the bid round in the context of the growing recognition of the East Med's importance in the efforts to achieve energy security for Europe and beyond.

Join industry leaders from Deloitte to explore the effects of high energy prices on the global upstream. Amy Chronis, US Leader, Energy & Chemicals and John England, Global Leader, Energy & Chemicals will discuss how and where oil & gas producers will deploy their cash, moderated by Stanley Porter, Global Leader, Energy, Resources & Industrials. Financial discipline and high energy prices have turned the tide for the global upstream industry. While the world underwent a big shift over the last few years, another realignment has been underway in the energy industry. The COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical developments, and underinvestment in hydrocarbons have pushed energy commodity prices to record levels, causing a readjustment in energy markets, trading relationships, organizational priorities, and broader energy market narratives. Armed with record cash flows and favourable financial health, energy companies now have important decisions to make—where to invest, and how much. But evolving questions around energy security, diversification, and transition, and the uncertain trajectory of future energy prices are creating a “trilemma” of concerns for companies.  Watch this PE Live Webcast in association with Deloitte to explore this topic in more detail and look to the opportunities for 2023, and beyond.
