The Future of Canadian Oil and Gas Exports • A global context is essen4al to understand the export future of both heavy oil
and natural gas. • LNG exports to Asia will be limited and will face increasing compe44on on price
and market-‐share. • NEB: Considerable natural gas produc4on growth (32% by 2035) if LNG exports
materialize (3 Bcf/day by 2023 & 4.5 Bcf/day by 2035). More limited growth without exports.
• Russia’s natural gas deal with China fundamentally alters the Asian LNG market. • Keystone XL Pipeline reality changes every day but oil export to the U.S. will be
mostly by rail. • Heavy oil development will proceed but short-‐ and medium-‐term capex will be a
challenge because of oil price, labor & service costs, and geographic constraints. • Canadian energy companies paid a premium to enter the oil-‐prone core of the
Eagle Ford Shale play in south Texas.

Canadian Gas Produc4on & Exports Declining
• Gas produc4on is decreasing and consump4on is increasing. • Surplus supply—produc4on minus consump4on—is down from 9.5 Bcf/day
in 2001 to 5 Bcf/day in 2013. • Exports to the U.S. are down 3 Bcf/day since February 2008. • Clearly, Canada must find other markets for its gas but what is the right
amount to export? How much commercial spare capacity is in Alberta and B.C.?

• Apparently the people gran4ng export approvals are not reading the NEB Energy Forecast 2013 for 3 Bcf/day of exports by 2023!
• There is a lack of clarity about fiscal terms, safety & environmental standards, First Na4ons deals & conflict with oil pipeline plans.
• Poten4al customers are not sympathe4c to arguments over B.C. export taxes.

The Power Of Siberia Pipeline Changes Everything
• Russia’s gas deal with China is largest in history: 1.4 Tcf over 30 years for $400 billion.
• Sets a $10/MMBtu benchmark price for Asia without oil linkage. • Gas agreement has far-‐reaching implica4ons for global LNG markets. • Russia plans to be the leading supplier to Asian gas markets. • Russia’s East Siberia proven reserves: 196 Tcf & 7 billion barrels of oil , 3-‐4mes
Canadian reserves and more than U.S. shale gas resources. • This is only the beginning: pipelines to Korea & Japan are planned.

Horn River Gas Supply Cost is a Barrier to Development & Export Economics
• Well costs are $16-‐22 million depending on lateral length.
• The gas is sour and has no liquids. • Deep, over-‐pressured reservoirs: risk of
reservoir compac4on like Haynesville Shale—much reduced EURs from higher-‐than-‐modeled decline rates.
• EURs are adver4sed at 15-‐35 Bcf/well depending on lateral length.
• There are few conven4onal wells this good and never the average well. Ø Average Haynesville Shale well is 4-‐5
Bcf. Ø Best Marcellus wells in core are 8-‐10
Bcf. • Based on $15 mm well cost, 15 mmcf/d
ini4al produc4on rate & 8% discount rate, break-‐even gas price is $7.25.
• This includes $0.40 AECO discount to HH and $0.40/mcf sour gas processing charge.

The Economics of North American LNG Export
• Model uses RBC Capital Market data with updated gas price ($4.30 HH and $0.40 AECO discount) and modified Horn River supply cost.
• Horn River not feasible because of high supply cost. • Montney has lower supply cost but greenfield construc4on pushes break-‐even above $10
benchmark set by Russia-‐China pipeline deal. • Haynesville brownfield project not feasible because of supply: Haynesville produc4on is 4.2
Bcf/day below its peak because of economics (high drilling cost). • U.S. Gulf Coast brownfield projects slightly more aorac4ve than Montney because of
disintegrated nature of components. • Both Montney and U.S. Gulf Coast will struggle to compete with $10 gas in Asia. • Liquefac4on projects are notorious for delays, cost over-‐runs and lower-‐than-‐planned capacity.

• The Na4onal Energy Board predicts that conven4onal gas will account for only 6% of produc4on by 2035, with 4ght gas making up 62% and shale gas 28%.
• Total gas produc4on will increase 32% from 13.2 to 17.4 Bcf/day by 2035 amer falling to 12.2 Bcf/day in 2016.
• Biggest increase will be 5.8 Bcf/day in the Montney with most of increase in B.C. • Horn River will increase 3.3 Bdf/day although supply cost is a big issue. • Consump4on will rise from 10 Bcf/day in 2013 to 12.9 Bcf/day in 2035, leaving 4.5 Bcf/day for
export. NEB high case for export is 10.7 Bcf/day. • Ziff predicts 19 Bcf/day by 2022 assuming 5.7 Bcf/day of LNG exports beginning in 2019, but
no growth without exports. • Ziff also sees more gas from Montney (7-‐8 Bdf/d) and Duvernay (2-‐3 Bcf/d) but less from Horn
River (2 Bcf/d) at least by 2022.

Alberta Heavy Oil and Keystone XL Pipeline
• Spending delays and job cuts as costs rise and companies seek ways to make projects more profitable.
• Keystone XL Pipeline reality changes daily because approval is a poli4cal issue in the U.S. At this moment, it appears unlikely that the project will be approved under Obama.
• Other op4ons include rail and Mainline Pipeline to eastern Canada refineries.

Capex Compression: Some Companies Are Postponing Heavy Oil Investment
• E&P costs rising faster than revenues: capex consumed 2/3 of revenue in Q1 2014 (Bernstein). • Companies struggling to replace reserves—re-‐focus on ROCE leads to investment in shorter-‐
term projects. • $10/boe downward price would move the industry into nega4ve margins. • Margins are flat at best despite the “good news” about shale plays.

• The vast majority of public oil & gas companies require oil prices of over $100/bbl to achieve positive free cash flow under current capex and dividend programs
• Nearly half of the industry needs more than $120/bb. The 4th quartile, where most US E&Ps cluster, needs $130/bbl or more.

• Produc4on reaches 7 MMbo/day in 2030. • 85% of resources in two provinces: Canada and Venezuela. • High oil prices needed for profitability. • Limits on produc4on not resources, but commercial environment is nega4ve in
Venezuela, and there are significant infrastructure, geographic, environmental and labor constraints in Canada.
• Heaviest environmental footprint (surface imprint, CO2 emission, water use) of all unconven4onal produc4on.
• Beoer commercial environment in Canada vs. Venezuela gives Canada advantage despite beoer reservoir and oil quality in Venezuela.

Dimmit County Example of Poor Well Performance: Well Spacing Too Tight?
Source: HPDI
• Well performance indicates that closely spaced laterals are not commercial while more widely spaced laterals by the same operator are.
• Shale producers announce reduced spacing as a celebra4on. • When did more capex become beoer than less capex for the same reserves? • The same investor exuberance that values huge acreage posi4ons that are mostly
not commercial cannot be drilled during the lease term.
Slide 27 Labyrinth Consul4ng Services, Inc.
Eagle Ford Well-‐Spacing
• Assump4ons are difficult to assess, most cri4cal data is
proprietary. • Industry discusses spacing as 4ght as 40 ac/well (~330 m
between laterals, 16 wells per square mile): Ø Most likely too much interference between wells.
• From our experience, we es4mate final op4mum well spacing to be in range of 80-‐120 ac/well (~660 – 990 m between laterals, 6-‐8 wells per square mile).
• Industry is likely to be aggressive, so our two scenarios assume 60 & 90 ac/well.
• Depic+on of how monitoring micro-‐seismic events are used to determine op+mum well spacing.
• More overlap of fracture ac+vity likely to cause too much interference between wells.
• Fracture events in this well show significant overlap at 750 T. spacing (~90 ac/well)

Eagle Ford Development Scenarios
Scenario 1: Current Rig Count • 180 rig count. • Final well spacing = 90 acre/
well. • 10,700 wells remain to be
drilled. • 4.5 years of steady ac4vity
before ramp down.
Scenario 2: Slow Decline in Rig Count • Rig count declines from 180
to 150 over four years, steady thereamer.
• Final well spacing = 60 acre/well.
• 15,100 wells remain to be drilled.
• 7.3 years of slowly declining ac4vity before ramp down.
Both scenarios assume addiBonal wells beyond full development calculaBon drilled in ramp down phase
(over-‐development or poor investments)

Conclusions • LNG exports to Asia will be limited and will face increasing compe44on on price and
market-‐share. Montney more aorac4ve than Horn River for export but projects will not be profitable based on current cost & price assump4ons.
• Limited exports will limit natural gas produc4on growth—less Montney growth without significant export volumes and possibly no Horn River growth without meaningful price increase or cost reduc4on.
• Keystone XL Pipeline approval not likely under Obama (or Clinton). • Heavy oil growth and development will proceed because of global supply and price
factors. • Canadian energy companies paid a premium to enter currently under-‐performing areas
of the Eagle Ford Shale play in south Texas. • It’s hard to make money on fundamentals in the oil patch: how can everyone win when
they are all doing the same thing?
