When oil prices started to slip
4
Source: Energy Aspects, Aug 24th, 2014, WSJ Nov 4 2014
Several events taken together along with lowered expectations of Chinese and European economic growth caused oil prices to weaken
- 9 mbd plus U.S. production
- Some strong non-OPEC production in 2014
- Significant volumes of crude moving from the U.S. to
Canada displacing African barrels (Bakken and Eagle Ford)
- Libyan crude unexpectedly comes on the market
- ISIS is pushing barrels on the market
- Draghi spooks markets with negative inflation
expectations for Europe in Jackson Hole Sept 2014
- People begin to actually believe the negative data out
- f China
- Saudi’s share of crude into China and Asia eroded by
volumes from Iran and Iraq
- Rise in dollar (drop in Euro)

Low oil price forecasts from 1990s through the mid-2000s can be attributed to two major forecasting errors: 1) The extrapolation forward of an ongoing, stable low price environment 2) The expectation that OPEC would currently be producing from 45 mbd to 60 mbd – It currently produces about 30 mbd

Drilling more and completing less
8
- Pressuring service costs lower, drilling, but not completing (completion costs roughly 60%
- f well costs)
- Around 900 ND wells are waiting on completion. Similar numbers are likely across the
country – Eagle Ford and Permian (a few thousand in total)
- Reservoir performance, completion best practices, and cost reduction? Technological and
geological advances will likely take a back seat in a low price environment.
- Companies forced to make complex economic and geologic decisions
- Job losses and ability to quickly turn on production…? This limits the ability to bring
production on very quickly. Sort of a swing producer, but not in the OPEC sense.
- All dependent on the longevity of low oil prices

What sets the Bakken (and other tight oil) apart?
16
- Globally coveted rocks
- 10,000 plus feet so more expensive to drill
- Break evens vary
- Good and stable crude quality
- Distance from markets – cost of transportation
- Rail accidents
- And other crudes going to those markets (has to go east or west)
- Bakken’s complexities make it tricky in short-term in a low oil price
environment
- The Bakken is the best known shale/tight/unconventional oil play in the
world and there is still a lot to learn. Long-term attraction/investment will continue

- School of Mines is looking at Wyoming and Colorado crude – carbon
biomarkers
- Depositional environment of the Western Interior Creatateous Seaway –
created different types of crude
- Two different reservoir categories
– Upper = Niobrara/Sussex/Turner – Lower = Mowry/Muddy/Dakota
- Lightest oils typically occur at deepest part of the basin in both categories
- Mowry – 1800 to 8000 ft see the same crude quality at all depths – so
migration occurred
- Turner – Two different oils from two wells next to each other at same
depth
- Muddy and Mowry – see high API gravity and extreme lights in some wells
– indicated fractures and network which induced migration

In comparison to other light sweet crudes being produced in the U.S., the Bakken shakes out well
- Natural fit for more simple East Coast refineries
- Good resid cracking feed properties
- East Coast will continue to be a long-term home for Bakken crude
- Decent distillate yield
- High level of reformer feed can cause some naptha handling issues
- Eagle Ford – varying grades with extreme lights (high naptha 60%
plus cause problems)
- Utica – condensate
- Niobrara – mix of light and heavy

Long-term production stability in North America
- The unconventional oil sector has only been around since 2008
- Unconventional/shale/tight oil has been lumped together with deepwater and other
costly oil production types, suggesting that the long-term productivity and economics of this type of production may just not work if prices do not recover back into the $80s
- The youth of the industry, lack of knowledge of the reservoirs, and high cost of
production are actually what make U.S. unconventional oil a good long-term investment – the upside remains vast.
- The industry has yet to integrate geology, completion design, and production into one
package.
- Long-term production has simply been an afterthought in the oil boom. The potential to
alter well design and completions with long-term production in mind could alter EURs.

This is a boom and bust business! Right now it is busting, but it will boom again.
