regasified LNG (RLNG) to SNGPL through swap
Supply RLNG to end consumers
And Why PSO ?
GOP assigned the role of importing LNG to PSO owing to its:
- Financial strength
PSO imports around 200 vessels of POL products annually, amounting to USD 6 bn (USD 8 bn in 2014) with margins supporting trading business risks:
- International Credibility
With oil suppliers which would grandfather with LNG Suppliers (ENI, BP, Petrochina, Trafigura, Gunvor, Glencore, Shell, GNF)
- Expertise in Financial Management, Skills in Energy Supply Chain
Despite severe constraints, has managed its debt and kept the wheels of industry operating
Description PMG HSD OMC Margin 2.35 2.35 Equivalent in USD/MMBTU 0.69 0.62 As %age of cost 5.5% 5.4%
LNG Journey Starts
- Three procurement streams were utilized for import of LNG to Pakistan:
- Direct negotiations under Government to Government arrangement;
- Spot purchases;
- Term procurement for a period of time
- Meetings were held with:
- Petronas, Malaysia’s designated entity and
- PB Trading Sendirian Berhad, Brunei Darussalam’s designated entity,
- Qatar which has liquefaction facilities to produce 77 Mtpa of LNG with
all 14 LNG trains running at full capacity which confirms Qatar as the world’s main LNG supplier with a market share of over 30%.
- PSO and GOP’s international consultants were engaged to develop
contracts and provide market intelligence
- ECC vide decision dated 2nd July 2013 authorized Ministry to engage in
negotiations with Qatargas on Government to Government basis for importing LNG on delivered Ex-ship basis.
- Pakistan State Oil Company Limited (PSOCL) and Qatargas Operating Company
Limited (QOCL) were nominated by respective governments to negotiate the LNG Sales Purchase Agreement (LNG SPA).
- Resimulations undertaken in Spain and meeting of Port Qasim, Engro & PSO
held in November, 2015 in Doha, Qatar. Qflex can deliver LNG. Port Charges (USD 660,000 – 809,000) capped Port at USD 320,000
- The pricing and principal commercial terms of the LNG were reviewed and
finalized by the Price Negotiation Committee constituted by the GOP. The negotiations have taken time to complete and agreed at 13.9% of Brent

The Long Term, Spot & Short Term Market Afforded and Opportunity
Nuclear Shutdown in Japan Japan`s long term contracts extended at roughly half of the volumes
Mild 2013-2014 winter, South Korea retreats from Spot Market
A number of key factors have contributed to the rapid growth of non long-term trade in recent years including
- The growth in LNG contracts with destination flexibility, mainly from the Atlantic Basin and Qatar, which has
facilitated diversions to higher priced markets.
- The increase in the number of exporters and importers. 26 exporters & 28 importers in 2014 as compared to
6 exporters and 8 importers in 2000.
- Reliance of Japan, South Korea & Taiwan on spot market for sudden changes in demand (Fukushima) due
to lack of domestic production or pipeline imports.
- The large growth in the LNG fleet, which has allowed the industry to sustain the long-haul parts of the spot
market (chiefly the trade from the Atlantic to the Pacific).

As per ECC Decision dated June 6, 2015, RLNG pricing components for PSO include:
- i. LNG DES/ FoB price (including freight)
- ii. Other import related actual costs
- iii. PSO margin upto 4 percent of LNG DES Price, subject to
review after 3 months by an Inter-Ministerial Committee
RLNG Pricing Guidelines

Subsequent to the ECC Decision, OGRA issued its Provisional Price Determination on October 7, 2015 wherein:
- PSO’s margin was reduced from 4.0% to 1.82% (Est. Loss to PSO: Rs. 750

- Infrastructure Cess paid by PSO to Sindh Government was disallowed
(Est. Loss to PSO: Rs. 342 mn)*
- Lower Sep 2015 price made applicable to all previous cargoes from April to
August 2015 (Est. Loss to PSO Rs. 749 mn)*
PSO filed a petition for review of the above determination on December 7, 2015 First session of Public Hearing conducted by OGRA in Karachi on December 28, 2015. Next session held in Lahore on January 4, 2016

Circulare Debt (Rs. in billion) Dividen per share Dividend per share Circular Debt
- Due to PSO’s support to power sector, dividend payment to its
shareholder have declined from Rs. 34 to Rs. 10 per share
- LNG project carries significant risk and any unforeseen event
might turn PSO into a loss making company
- Therefore, fair return to shareholders (includes GoP) to ensure
long term sustainability toGOP’s Strategic Company
- 23 -
Business Risk Consideration
Following PSO exposures have not been considered:
I. Take or Pay due to Term LNG SPAs II. Delay in Payments III. IPP Capacity Charges Payment IV. Risk of regulatory disputes V. Guarantees for Term LNG imports (SBLC Arrangement) VI. Demurrages
One major risk event can wipe off PSO’s return. The allowed margin of 0.5% fails to provide an adequate return to PSO for the business risks. The will also impact our
- ther Businesses as LNG business will become 37% of PSO’s total business and
is already consuming significant time of key management personnel and support departments

Tax Impact on Margin
- Exemption on Withholding Tax on LNG Import withdrawn through Finance
Act 2015. Accordingly 1% withholding tax on the import value increased by Custom duty , sales tax and federal excise is applicable on LNG import
- As a result, the Tax on LNG Business is more viz a viz the normal

LNG Business Risks
Take or Pay and IPP Capacity Charge Liability of over Rs 7bn
- In the LNG market, supply contracts are structured on ‘Take or Pay’
basis
- PSO is liable for full cargo value (approx USD 21-24 mn) to the
supplier(s) if PSO is unable to take delivery
- Estimated financial impact of failure to take delivery of even a single
cargo is Rs. 2.2- 2.5 bn
- SNGPL under Tripartite Agreement may order upto 4.5 mtpa of LNG
for a term of upto 30 years and PSO is required to supply/procure these volumes
- In case PSO is unable to supply the required volumes:
- It is liable to pay capacity charges to IPPs
- Capacity payment for a single month is estimated at Rs. 6 bn
- This is 4 times the margin of both the 5 year term contracts that
PSO has bid recently
- 29 -
LNG Business Risks
Risk of Delayed Payments & Shortfall in SBLC Arrangement
- Average receivable of Rs. 9 bn during the last 9 months
- PSO has a loss in its LNG business due to delay in payments
SNGPL/IPPs
- At full capacity the amount is expected to increase to Rs 36bn at current
low brent price (2 month cargoes)
- Interest liability is estimated at around Rs 2.1 bn p.a
- For 600 mmcfd of RLNG, PSO has to open Standby Letter of Credit
(SBLC) worth USD 150 mn for the LNG suppliers
- SNGPL SBLC in favor of PSO is renewable and replenish able only
when the IPPs’ SBLC(s) in favor of SNGPL are renewed and
- r/replenished
- Resultantly the imbalance in credit support mechanism as per LNG
Supply Agreements vs against credit support mechanism in the Tripartite Agreement is to be managed by PSO
- Moreover, the opportunity cost is significant for PSO and it could obtain
a higher USD return by investing in business that yield better returns
- 30 -
Furnace Oil & LNG
- Risks in LNG are high because of the uniqueness of the LNG supply chain
- Yet the return on LNG is about one-fourth of FO
- PSO will bleed unless adequate margins are not provided

- PSO has unique skills to manage multi billion dollar supply chain
- LNG project requires highly sophisticated treasury and buying
department with good reputation in local and international banking sector
- LNG business will become 37% of PSO’s total business and is
already consuming significant time of key management personnel and support departments
- Therefore, PSO’s total common administrative expenses (Other
than marketing and operations) will be allocated to LNG business
- PSO is required to operate commercially and its commercial
margin ranges between 3.5% to 5.5%
- Private sector customer is already paying 4% on LNG and is not
- pting direct imports/ sourcing through other Companies.
