GOING GLOBAL: TIGHT OIL PRODUCTION

Key Message: Tight Oil Will Have Unconventional Effects
Tight Oil Production will change in the coming decades. It will be:
More global, as it leaps out of North America
More inclusive, as companies come to the US for experience and US companies go international for production A source of renewal, as unconventional techniques are used in conventional fields
The United States will continue to be an important laboratory for global development of tight oil and unconventional techniques Global tight oil production has significant energy security implications GOING GLOBAL: TIGHT OIL PRODUCTION

Shale oil resources are concentrated in Russia and the United States – their resources are almost equal to those of the other eight countries combined. GOING GLOBAL: TIGHT OIL PRODUCTION
US Success Factors in Tight Oil: Internationally Repeatable?
Key factors in US tight oil success:
Resource Base Quality Resource Base Quantity Cooperative Government
Property Rights Innovation via competition Service sector capacity
Financial markets Functioning and available market The US focused on natural gas first, then switched to oil as gas prices fell. The opposite is likely to occur in many other countries.

needs a fraction of that price. GOING GLOBAL: TIGHT OIL PRODUCTION

Applying unconventional techniques to conventional plays Concept is still in early stages – but has potential to renew old oil fields in new ways, while helping to increase recovery factors - critical in meeting future supply
Controlled fractures
Low-productivity conventional reservoirs, horizontal wells: Allow access to thinner zones where vertical wells were not commercially productive. Can connect compartmentalized portions of the reservoir with one well instead of many vertical wells.
Thin target zone
Hydraulic fracturing may or may not be used It may not be practical or necessary in conventional reservoirs that have higher permeability than shales.
Horizontal wells decline faster than vertical wells, but decline rates are highly variable—typically between 40% and 90% in the first year.

Tight Oil has Significant Energy Security Impacts
Tight oil production growth impacts:
A barrel of oil anywhere increases energy security everywhere
Can radically change the import/export balance of a country
Has the potential to disrupt OPEC as it collapses the signal to production time

Key Messages: Global tight oil production is coming – and will disrupt like the US
Tight oil production will be more global in the future. Countries will unlock their recipe for allowing tight oil production as they gain from the US laboratory Companies will see big opportunitiespotentially reversing the trend towards less international openness The continuation of the US laboratory is critical for global success of tight oil Energy security will be improved- but within it is the potential for price volatility if OPEC power is disrupted
