Ecuador Oil And Gas Report Q2 2012

Description:
Business Monitor International's Ecuador Oil and Gas Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, oil and gas associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on Ecuador's oil and gas industry.

BMI View: In spite of the volatile licensing and regulatory environment, Ecuador continues to attract some international investment and is pumping its own cash into field development in order to slow a decline in output and ward off falling oil exports. There is, however, limited scope for sustained volume growth.

The main trends and developments we highlight for the Ecuador’s Oil and Gas sector are:

- Ecuador's state-run oil company Petroecuador has signed contracts worth US$1.7bn in order to expand oil production at two oil fields, according to President Rafael Correa. The company has agreed 15-year oil service contracts with Schlumberger for the Shushufindi field and reached a deal with a consortium headed by Tecpetrol for the El Libertador field. Schlumberger is likely to spend up to US$1.3bn in the Shushufindi field. Meanwhile, Tecpetrol, as part of a consortium comprising Sertecpet, Canacol and Schlumberger, is expected to invest US$385mn in the Libertador field. Petroecuador is to remain in charge of the operations at the fields, Correa added.

- Petroecuador has approved a US$3.75bn budget for 2012, including US$1.82bn for investment and US$1.93bn to cover operational costs. Of the total investment, the company plans to channel US$530mn into exploration and production (E&P) and US$337mn into refining. The investment will be used to conduct seismic tests, to drill 98 wells in Amazon District and to develop seismic programmes and gas field exploratory wells in the Gulf of Guayaquil.

- Ecuador expects private oil companies to boost investment by about 58% to US$694mn in 2012, Dow Jones said in a February 2012 report citing Non-Renewable Natural Resources Minister Wilson Pastor. Pastor also said the South American nation plans to open concessions in April 2012 for 21 oil blocks in the south-eastern part of the country, Dow reported.

- The oil production outlook remains uncertain, in spite of new efforts to boost investment and revive older fields. We are assuming a rise in output during 2012 to 515,000 barrels per day (b/d), before a steady decline again sets in, taking volumes to 480,000b/d by 2016 and less than 420,000b/d by 2021. Oil consumption of an estimated 211,000b/d in 2011 could reach 257,000b/d by 2016 and rise to more than 300,000b/d by 2021.

- Estimated gas output was just 0.34bn cubic metres (bcm) in 2011, and although production should rise, our forecasts show volumes remaining below 1bcm. All output is expected to be used to meet domestic demand. Over the long-term there is an option to develop a trans-Andean gas trade that would see gas from Venezuela and potentially Colombia flow into Ecuador, although we believe there is little likelihood of this ambitious plan becoming a reality.

- By 2016, Ecuador’s oil exports are set to yield some US$7.6bn, falling towards US$3.9bn by 2021 as export volumes slip from an estimated 295,000b/d in 2012 to just 114,000b/d. At the time of writing we assume an OPEC basket oil price for 2012 of US$99.38/bbl, falling to US$97.23/bbl in 2013. Global GDP in 2012 is forecast at 3.2%, up from an assumed 3.1% in 2011, reflecting slower growth in China and uncertainty with regard to the eurozone debt situation. For 2013, growth is estimated at 3.7%.
