  1. Drivers of Demand for Capital in Global Energy Randall S. Wade Managing Director and COO December 2010

  2. Sector Attributes • Energy is a building block of economic growth • Benefits from long-term demographic trends that drive demand • Demand largely caught up with supply in last five years; supply will struggle to keep pace with demand going forward • Energy supply is comprised of several heterogeneous markets, each with distinct sub-sectors and underlying fundamentals • Negative correlation with traditional investment classes such as equities, fixed income • Commodities provide a natural hedge against inflation • Long-lived, hard assets • Inherent volatility in commodity prices World GDP by Sector Source: EIA, CIA World Fact Book, World Health Organization, Bloomberg

  3. Sector Attributes Technically complex Complex and interpretive resource evaluation, and sophisticated engineering required for success One off, purpose specific design Project cost risk typically carried by owner (not EPC) Capital intensive Very large capital investment required throughout lifecycle. Ability to ‘protect’ or follow initial investment is crucial Investment decision heavily reliant on commodity price forecast Commodity price volatility Oil prices in 2002 were sub $20/bbl, reached a high of ~$147/bbl in July 2008, and hit a low of ~$34/bbl in December 2008 Financial flows increasing volatility Cyclicality GDP growth drives underlying demand Significant lag in investment cycle, leading to boom-bust profile Complex demand-supply position • Energy markets are complex and intertwined (e.g. upstream importance to gas transmission, gas price on spark spread) • Structural change driven by: • Decline of OPEC spare capacity, and rise of NOCs • Development of unconventional resources • - Impact of the rise of Asia on demand 3 3

  4. Drivers of Demand Beginning around 2005, EIG believes the world began a 15-20 year secular trend in energy and energy-related infrastructure requiring massive amounts of investment. Underlying Factors that Drive Demand • Developing world continues to industrialize, coupled with population growth and demographic trends • Depletion of aging “elephant” fields that have underpinned global supply for decades • Higher replacement costs as conventional supplies began to be replaced with higher cost “unconventional” supplies • Chronic under-investment in infrastructure caused by the inherent volatility of the sector and the need for long pay-back periods • Concerns about climate change and the introduction of price mechanisms for carbon • Assertion of market clout by national oil companies and other state actors and the resulting resource nationalism as energy independence takes on increased political importance • Security of supply as an enhanced geopolitical consideration as key supply states use energy as an economic weapon to leverage consumer states • Market distortions caused by increased government intervention through mandates, subsidies, taxes, and regulation • Fragility of the energy supply network and susceptibility to disruption by terrorist activity • Increased price volatility due to low reserve margins, correlation to U.S. dollar, and inflation expectations 4

  5. 1) Industrialization of the Developing World is Driving Demand • World population has more than doubled since 1950 • Urbanization increases demand for energy • In 2009, for the first time in history, the world’s urban population overtook the rural population Actual Forecast Source: Historical data from World Bank (GDP), BP Statistical Review 2009 (Energy), US Census Bureau (Population). Forecasts per EIA International Energy Outlook 2009, IEA World Energy Outlook 2009, World Bank HNP Stats.

Underlying Factors that Drive Demand • Developing world continues to industrialize, coupled with population growth and demographic trends • Depletion of aging “elephant” fields that have underpinned global supply for decades • Higher replacement costs as conventional supplies began to be replaced with higher cost “unconventional” supplies • Chronic under-investment in infrastructure caused by the inherent volatility of the sector and the need for long pay-back periods • Concerns about climate change and the introduction of price mechanisms for carbon • Assertion of market clout by national oil companies and other state actors and the resulting resource nationalism as energy independence takes on increased political importance • Security of supply as an enhanced geopolitical consideration as key supply states use energy as an economic weapon to leverage consumer states • Market distortions caused by increased government intervention through mandates, subsidies, taxes, and regulation • Fragility of the energy supply network and susceptibility to disruption by terrorist activity • Increased price volatility due to low reserve margins, correlation to U.S. dollar, and inflation expectations 7

  8. 2) Depletion of Aging “Elephant” Fields • There are ~70,000 oil fields in the world • Bulk of production comes from a small number of very prolific fields, mostly giants and super giants • World’s 10 largest fields produced 20% of world’s production • 20 largest fields produced 25%; 16 are post-peak • Ghawar’s 5.1 million bpd equaled 7% of world total • Most of the largest fields have been in production for years, and in some cases several decades Production at World’s Largest Oil Fields The aggregate production decline (from peak output) at the world’s six largest oil fields equates to 6.6 million barrels per day.

  9. Drivers of Demand Beginning around 2005, EIG believes the world began a 15-20 year secular trend in energy and energy-related infrastructure requiring massive amounts of investment. Underlying Factors that Drive Demand • Developing world continues to industrialize, coupled with population growth and demographic trends • Depletion of aging “elephant” fields that have underpinned global supply for decades • Higher replacement costs as conventional supplies began to be replaced with higher cost “unconventional” supplies • Chronic under-investment in infrastructure caused by the inherent volatility of the sector and the need for long pay-back periods • Concerns about climate change and the introduction of price mechanisms for carbon • Assertion of market clout by national oil companies and other state actors and the resulting resource nationalism as energy independence takes on increased political importance • Security of supply as an enhanced geopolitical consideration as key supply states use energy as an economic weapon to leverage consumer states • Market distortions caused by increased government intervention through mandates, subsidies, taxes, and regulation • Fragility of the energy supply network and susceptibility to disruption by terrorist activity • Increased price volatility due to low reserve margins, correlation to U.S. dollar, and inflation expectations 9

  10. 3) Replacement Costs are Increasing as Source of Supply Shifts • Exploration spending increased by 21% in 2008, and has doubled since 2005 • However replacement rates fell to 88% of production (first year since 2004 in which production was not replaced) • Finding and development costs soared 66% to $25.50/bbl • Competition for unconventional resources increased sharply Expected Costs of Production US Natural Gas Production by Source Source: IEA World Energy Outlook 2008 (left); EIA Annual Energy Outlook 2009 (right); 2009 Global Upstream Performance Review, IHS Herold/Harrison Lovegrove

  25. Impact of the Credit Crisis • Contraction in global GDP took pressure off near-term supply/demand fundamentals and caused one to two year “time out” in the otherwise dominant secular trends in the industry • Two key impacts of the credit crisis: • Re-pricing of risk across the credit spectrum, particularly for illiquid assets • Contraction in suppliers of capital: “survivors” continue to be price makers, not takers US Corporate Bonds, B-rated Source: Bloomberg (Merrill Lynch data)
