Production Depletion • We are more reliant on offshore oil + offshore oil is getting deeper • Onshore production declines at 3.4% annually • Offshore production declines at 7.3% annually • Deepwater production declines at 13.3% annually 89% Offshore

Oil E&P, 1.4 Death of Cheap Oil Oil Services, Integrated 1.7 Supply, 31.12 28.02 Oil service companies best positioned to benefit from capex cycle • Integrated companies (RDS, Total, BG, Repsol) – strong balance sheets offering high yields, not that geared to oil price • E+P Companies (Tullow) – strong focus on oil finds in Brazil and West Africa with potential angle on consolidation • Oil services (Saipem, Seadrill, Acergy, Subsea, Technip, Petrofac, Amec, BWOffshore) – offshore and onshore exposure to capex cycle • Alternative Energy – prefer specialist, non-commoditised part suppliers Source: Thomson Financial Datastream, MFG, March 2010 Portfolio allocation Death of Cheap Oil Supply (as at 31.12.2010) Source: Ashburton
Summary of key points • Oil demand correlation to Global GDP is likely to strengthen, as high growth (stronger macro) economies become demand driver. • Demand to grow circa 2-3% (accelerating in 2nd half of decade). • Field Attrition to accelerate past 4.5% in the second half of decade. • Replacement needs for oil will move past 7.5%. • Supply to become very tight 2013 onwards. • Oil Companies capex needs to grow in order to meet demand in 2nd half of decade. • Projects take 4yrs + to complete • Oil Services to experience strong demand. As oil deteriorates in quality, flow rates decline and we move deeper and deeper offshore
