Q2 | April 2021 EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook
Page 2
At the close of last quarter, we asked two questions. The first was whether oil market confidence could be
sustained until COVID-19 vaccination programs started to bend the curve on cases. The second was whether
OPEC+ could maintain supply discipline until they did. The answer to both of those questions was a resounding
“yes”, at least for now. From the beginning of January until the end of March, WTI and Brent prices increased
steadily from near US$50/bbl on New Years Day, to more that US$65/bbl at the peak in mid-March. The
recovery in prices has been carefully engineered by OPEC+, led by Saudi Arabia and at every opportunity, the
organization has resisted the urge to bring production back online prematurely. In early January (and
subsequently reaffirmed in March), Saudi Arabia committed to reducing production by 1 million barrels per day,
a move that clearly triggered the positive sentiment we have seen since.
Recovery in the sector hasn’t been confined to the upstream markets. A combination of refinery shutdowns and
recovery in demand pushed margins up by 64% during the quarter. As of late March, the RBOB crack spread
was trading above US$20/bbl. In late October of last year, those contracts were barely trading above
US$11/bbl. The most dramatic story in the energy markets this quarter was the paralyzing cold wave in the US
that brought the Texas power grid to its knees, but had only a marginal impact on global oil and gas markets.
The quarter began with high hopes for those who watched LNG markets in anticipation the long-awaited era of
sustained pricing that would support new investment had finally arrived. Those market-watchers ended the
quarter disappointed.
Q2 theme

Q2 | April 2021 EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook

The theme for this quarter is governed. Apparent market balance at prices that could be sustainable is the
product of calculated choices by market leaders and the cooperation of those who follow them. Economics
played their customary role as well, with capital scarcity in North America taking about 2 million barrels per
day out of the market, about half of the remaining gap in demand. While inventories are close to their pre-
COVID-19 levels, there is still uncertainty. The resolution of the pandemic is in sight, but timing is unclear.
Vaccine distribution in the US is having an impact but Europe is struggling to contain a third wave of infections.
The taps have opened on economic stimulus, but it remains to be seen if policymakers have done enough or if
they have overshot the mark.
The shape of the crude oil forward curve has fundamentally changed since the end of the last quarter. In late
December of last year, the Brent forward curve was gradually increasing while today, the curve is
backwardated. This is a clear sign that the market sees a short-term dynamic that is disconnected from the
medium-to-long-term fundamentals. The lasting impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains to be seen. While
many have opined that COVID-19 marks a turning point in energy transition, the IEA recently released a five-
year forecast of oil demand that shows steady growth, albeit at rates that are below historical expectations.
Gas markets are a paradox. At the Henry Hub and at LNG destinations, demand grows, investment lags and
prices will occasionally attract attention. Traders, so far though, are unconvinced and futures prices don’t
indicate imminent scarcity at any link in the value chain.
• How long (if ever) will it take for crude oil demand to return to pre-COVID-19 levels?
• Will expansionary fiscal and monetary policy have the desired result or will it produce inflation and currency
devaluation? How might that impact oil markets?
• Is upstream gas activity adequate to keep up with demand? What happens if it isn’t?
• Will the market respond to the recent spike in LNG projects with new investment or will it wait and see?

Oil demand, supply and inventories approaching a balance
Source: US EIA
• In the first quarter, oil market balance continued to tilt toward an inventory draw.
Demand crept up, OPEC and oil producers outside of North America increased output
while the capital constrained North American producers reduced output.
• Going forward, we can expect continued gradual growth in demand and supply. Over
time, as inventories draw down to where they were before the pandemic, producers will
coordinate supply expansion at rates slightly higher than demand recovery until the
market is balanced in real time.
• Economic forecasts are positive across the board. The most recent OPEC outlook
projects the global economy to grow by 5.1%, up from previous forecast of 4.8%. The
US Federal Reserve is equally positive, recently raising their estimate of economic
growth in 2021 from 4.8% to 6.5%.
• OPEC expects that global oil demand is expected to expand by 5.9 million barrels per
day (mmbpd) this year to reach 96.3 mmbpd in 2021, almost 3 mmbpd less than in
2019.

Global refining margins (US$/bbl)
Singapore Northwest Europe US Gulf Coast
• Fuel demand destruction caused refining margins to fall dramatically during the
pandemic. In Q4 2020, refining margins in Europe and Asia were 82% and 77%,
respectively, below Q4 2019 levels. The US landscape is slightly more positive. Q4
margins were only 50% below pre-COVID-19 levels, with extensive refinery closures and
supply cuts partially offsetting demand reduction.
• Refining margins are likely to recover gradually in 2021, as the pandemic subsides and
the demand for gasoline and (especially) aviation fuel picks up. Demand for liquids is
expected to be within 1 mmbpd of pre-crisis levels by the end of 2021, and exports to
emerging markets in Africa and Latin America could boost Gulf Coast margins.
• Recovery in refining margins can be enhanced by increased fuel demand during the back
half of 2021, coupled with rationalization of refining capacity. The industry has already
announced 4.1 mmbpd of effective and potential closures since 2020, and there could be
more to come.
• The long-term outlook for refining continues to be unclear. The IEA expects liquids
demand to grow for the next five years, but the geography and product mix will change.

Market fundamentals
Global upstream capital spending to marginally increase in 2021 Stimulus, inflation and currency devaluation may impact oil prices
• 2021 will be a transition year as crude oil demand and prices stabilize. However,
spending will remain restrained. The industry’s benchmark E&P spending survey shows
spending increasing slightly (1% up y-o-y) in 2021 after experiencing a 29% decline in
2020.
• Growth will be entirely driven by international markets such as Latin America (19% up y-
o-y) and Russia (16% up y-o-y). North American upstream spending is expected to fall by
another 4% in 2021 (after a 44% decline in 2020) with onshore US spending declining to
nearly half of its pre-COVID level.
• Long-term uncertainty and increasing pressure from stakeholders for capital discipline
has pushed companies to prioritize capital on critical assets and short-cycle projects.
Reinvestment is at historic lows, with upstream spending projected to be less than 60%
of 2021 cash flows.
• Oil and gas demand has recovered substantially and will continue to recover while
inventories are expected to return to normal levels. When that happens, the market may
be surprised to learn the impact of sustained capital spending reductions on supply
capacity. Spot shortages and price spikes are a real possibility in the intermediate term.
• Stimulus spending and accommodating monetary policy have been a central feature of
government and central bank response to COVID-19 across the globe. In late October,
the World Economic Forum reported that total government response has totaled over
US$11 trillion. Between the CARES Act, the most recent US$1.9 trillion package and
everything in between, the total US commitment has been over US$5 trillion. The US
Federal Reserve and it’s counterparts have bought new government debt liberally and
have aggressively supported credit markets.
• Oil is denominated in US dollars everywhere and a falling dollar reduces the price of oil in
local currencies and puts upward pressure on oil prices. In the last quarter of 2020, that
effect was evident as the trade-weighted value of the dollar fell by 5.1% and the price of
WTI crude increased by 25%. In the first quarter of 2021, the price of oil continued to
surge while the value of the dollar stabilized.
• Economic analysts are still processing the short-run and long-run combined impact of
the various economic interventions. Recently, the Federal Reserve raised its inflation
forecast for this year from 1.8% to 2.4%, and the inflation rate implied by indexed
treasury securities has gone up from 1.5% to 2.5% since the end of Q3 2020. Depending
on what happens in other countries, further dollar devaluation could be on the horizon.

Market fundamentals
US majors respond to analyst concerns about energy transition Regional gas price spreads back to pre-pandemic levels
• Until very recently, the oil industry’s response to the energy transition has been a “tale
of two hemispheres,” with European majors acting aggressively to diversify into low-
carbon businesses and US-based majors standing by their core business.
• Pressure on the US majors to change course comes from multiple directions. The Biden
administration has announced that it intends to re-join the Paris Agreement, the US
Energy Secretary used her first public appearance to urge companies to embrace energy
transition, investment funds have stated their intention to redirect capital based on
companies’ performance against Environmental, Societal and Governance (ESG) metrics.
Additionally, in the last round of earnings calls, the number of analyst questions to US oil
majors related to decarbonization or alternative energy investments went from 1 in both
1Q20 and 2Q20, to nearly 10 in each of the last two quarters.
• Companies have responded to the pressure by announcing targets for scope 1 and scope
2 emissions. Time will tell how much of a difference these announcements will make. No
US majors announced scope 3 targets or plans to make significant investment in low-
carbon businesses.
• The global LNG market is showing signs of rebalance. Regional gas price spreads reached
record highs in January before returning to pre-pandemic levels in February and March.
The spread between Asian LNG spot prices and US Henry Hub prices increased ~75x
from US$0.2/MMBtu in May 2020 to US$15/MMBtu in January 2021 (the highest since
2016) and settled at US$3.4/MMBtu in March 2021.
• The Asian market was driven by supply disruptions in January and lower-than-expected
temperatures fuelling a surge in demand. Soft demand in February and March ensued
and spot prices averaged US$6.5/MMBtu and US$6.1/MMBtu, respectively. Gas stocks in
Europe have declined to 31% full (below the 5-year average), largely driven by LNG
exports diverted to Asia. In contrast, the US gas prices have been stable for the past
three months at an average price of ~US$2.7/MMBtu.
• US LNG exports are expected to head to Europe in coming months as depleted European
stocks have narrowed the spreads between Asian and European markets.
• Based on the financial statements of major LNG suppliers, we have estimated that a
US$6/MMBtu spread is necessary to support new investment. Notwithstanding, the post-
pandemic price environment seems to be stimulating interest in new LNG projects,
including the recent sanctioning of a large (32 mmtpa) project in Qatar.

Oil price outlook
For both benchmarks, consultants
(on average) forecast higher oil
prices throughout the forecast
period.
Consultants focus primarily on the analysis of a
long-term sustainable oil price, whereas banks
and brokers balance their views on the basis of
current market conditions.
Consultant ranges include estimates of
recognized market consultants. Where consultant
estimates are updated only annually (for
example, the EIA and the IEA), such estimates are
included within the range of estimates from 2023
onward (or combined with short-term estimates
published by the same consultant) to prevent
near-term ranges being impacted by estimates
that are not considered to reflect current market
dynamics. Brent price estimates derived under
the IEA’s “Stated Policies” and “Sustainable
Development” scenarios (inflation adjusted to
reflect nominal pricing) are reflected within the
consultant ranges from 2023 onward.
Consultant forecasts result in averages of
US$64.1/bbl and US$59.2/bbl for Brent and
WTI, respectively, in 2025.
This data is effective as of 15 March 2021.

Gas price outlook
The banks and brokers forecasts
(on average) are wider in the
short-term than consultants for
Henry Hub and NBP. The trend is
reversed starting in 2024.
Consultants focus primarily on the analysis of a

and brokers balance their views on the basis of
current market conditions.
Consultant ranges include estimates of

NBP price estimates are scarce, with only six and
four forecasts released by banks and brokers and
consultants, respectively.

Important notice
Price outlook data included in this publication is effective as of 15 March 2021. Given the rapidly evolving nature of the
market and views of market participants, analysis can quickly become outdated. It should be noted that EY analysis is
not for the purpose of providing an independent view of the outlook for oil and gas prices. Instead, we are collating the
views of market participants.
Price outlook data should not be applied mechanistically. Instead, careful consideration should be given to the purpose
of any value assessment, with price forecasts assessed in the context of other key assumptions, such as resources and
reserves classification, production rates, discount rates and cost escalation rates, together with an appreciation of the
key sensitivities in any such analysis.

EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook, Q2 April 2021

  • 1. EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook Q2 | April 2021
  • 2. Q2 overview Gary Donald EY Global Oil & Gas Assurance Leader gdonald@uk.ey.com Andy Brogan EY Global Oil & Gas Leader abrogan@uk.ey.com Q2 | April 2021 EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook Page 2 At the close of last quarter, we asked two questions. The first was whether oil market confidence could be sustained until COVID-19 vaccination programs started to bend the curve on cases. The second was whether OPEC+ could maintain supply discipline until they did. The answer to both of those questions was a resounding “yes”, at least for now. From the beginning of January until the end of March, WTI and Brent prices increased steadily from near US$50/bbl on New Years Day, to more that US$65/bbl at the peak in mid-March. The recovery in prices has been carefully engineered by OPEC+, led by Saudi Arabia and at every opportunity, the organization has resisted the urge to bring production back online prematurely. In early January (and subsequently reaffirmed in March), Saudi Arabia committed to reducing production by 1 million barrels per day, a move that clearly triggered the positive sentiment we have seen since. Recovery in the sector hasn’t been confined to the upstream markets. A combination of refinery shutdowns and recovery in demand pushed margins up by 64% during the quarter. As of late March, the RBOB crack spread was trading above US$20/bbl. In late October of last year, those contracts were barely trading above US$11/bbl. The most dramatic story in the energy markets this quarter was the paralyzing cold wave in the US that brought the Texas power grid to its knees, but had only a marginal impact on global oil and gas markets. The quarter began with high hopes for those who watched LNG markets in anticipation the long-awaited era of sustained pricing that would support new investment had finally arrived. Those market-watchers ended the quarter disappointed.
  • 3. Q2 theme ? Q2 | April 2021 EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook Page 3 The theme for this quarter is governed. Apparent market balance at prices that could be sustainable is the product of calculated choices by market leaders and the cooperation of those who follow them. Economics played their customary role as well, with capital scarcity in North America taking about 2 million barrels per day out of the market, about half of the remaining gap in demand. While inventories are close to their pre- COVID-19 levels, there is still uncertainty. The resolution of the pandemic is in sight, but timing is unclear. Vaccine distribution in the US is having an impact but Europe is struggling to contain a third wave of infections. The taps have opened on economic stimulus, but it remains to be seen if policymakers have done enough or if they have overshot the mark. The shape of the crude oil forward curve has fundamentally changed since the end of the last quarter. In late December of last year, the Brent forward curve was gradually increasing while today, the curve is backwardated. This is a clear sign that the market sees a short-term dynamic that is disconnected from the medium-to-long-term fundamentals. The lasting impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains to be seen. While many have opined that COVID-19 marks a turning point in energy transition, the IEA recently released a five- year forecast of oil demand that shows steady growth, albeit at rates that are below historical expectations. Gas markets are a paradox. At the Henry Hub and at LNG destinations, demand grows, investment lags and prices will occasionally attract attention. Traders, so far though, are unconvinced and futures prices don’t indicate imminent scarcity at any link in the value chain. • How long (if ever) will it take for crude oil demand to return to pre-COVID-19 levels? • Will expansionary fiscal and monetary policy have the desired result or will it produce inflation and currency devaluation? How might that impact oil markets? • Is upstream gas activity adequate to keep up with demand? What happens if it isn’t? • Will the market respond to the recent spike in LNG projects with new investment or will it wait and see?
  • 4. Q2 trends EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook Page 4 Q2 | April 2021 Capital spending higher, but still below sustainable levels Crude oil supply and demand both increased, but OPEC discipline ensures that the market remains undersupplied in the aggregate. A return to normal inventories is within sight. The journey to normal for crude oil inventories continues In the last (supply-driven) downturn, downstream businesses were a safe haven. In the latest (demand-driven) downturn, all points on the value chain were adversely impacted. However, refining economics improved this quarter. Refining margins recovering Investors increasingly focused on ESG matters Going forward, attention to long-term value considerations and tangible actions to decarbonize will enable oil and gas companies’ access to capital. Investor questions are becoming more frequent and pointed. Although higher than 2020, capital spending plans are well below where they were before the COVID-19 pandemic. With demand returning to normal levels, there is a risk that supply won’t keep up.
  • 5. Market fundamentals Q2 | April 2021 EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook Page 5 Oil demand, supply and inventories approaching a balance Source: US EIA • In the first quarter, oil market balance continued to tilt toward an inventory draw. Demand crept up, OPEC and oil producers outside of North America increased output while the capital constrained North American producers reduced output. • Going forward, we can expect continued gradual growth in demand and supply. Over time, as inventories draw down to where they were before the pandemic, producers will coordinate supply expansion at rates slightly higher than demand recovery until the market is balanced in real time. • Economic forecasts are positive across the board. The most recent OPEC outlook projects the global economy to grow by 5.1%, up from previous forecast of 4.8%. The US Federal Reserve is equally positive, recently raising their estimate of economic growth in 2021 from 4.8% to 6.5%. • OPEC expects that global oil demand is expected to expand by 5.9 million barrels per day (mmbpd) this year to reach 96.3 mmbpd in 2021, almost 3 mmbpd less than in 2019.

In Q4 2020, refining margins in Europe and Asia were 82% and 77%, respectively, below Q4 2019 levels. The US landscape is slightly more positive. Q4 margins were only 50% below pre-COVID-19 levels, with extensive refinery closures and supply cuts partially offsetting demand reduction. • Refining margins are likely to recover gradually in 2021, as the pandemic subsides and the demand for gasoline and (especially) aviation fuel picks up. Demand for liquids is expected to be within 1 mmbpd of pre-crisis levels by the end of 2021, and exports to emerging markets in Africa and Latin America could boost Gulf Coast margins. • Recovery in refining margins can be enhanced by increased fuel demand during the back half of 2021, coupled with rationalization of refining capacity. The industry has already announced 4.1 mmbpd of effective and potential closures since 2020, and there could be more to come. • The long-term outlook for refining continues to be unclear. The IEA expects liquids demand to grow for the next five years, but the geography and product mix will change.

  • 6. Q2 | April 2021 EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook Page 6 Market fundamentals Global upstream capital spending to marginally increase in 2021 Stimulus, inflation and currency devaluation may impact oil prices • 2021 will be a transition year as crude oil demand and prices stabilize. However, spending will remain restrained. The industry’s benchmark E&P spending survey shows spending increasing slightly (1% up y-o-y) in 2021 after experiencing a 29% decline in 2020. • Growth will be entirely driven by international markets such as Latin America (19% up y- o-y) and Russia (16% up y-o-y). North American upstream spending is expected to fall by another 4% in 2021 (after a 44% decline in 2020) with onshore US spending declining to nearly half of its pre-COVID level. • Long-term uncertainty and increasing pressure from stakeholders for capital discipline has pushed companies to prioritize capital on critical assets and short-cycle projects. Reinvestment is at historic lows, with upstream spending projected to be less than 60% of 2021 cash flows. • Oil and gas demand has recovered substantially and will continue to recover while inventories are expected to return to normal levels. When that happens, the market may be surprised to learn the impact of sustained capital spending reductions on supply capacity. Spot shortages and price spikes are a real possibility in the intermediate term. • Stimulus spending and accommodating monetary policy have been a central feature of government and central bank response to COVID-19 across the globe. In late October, the World Economic Forum reported that total government response has totaled over US$11 trillion. Between the CARES Act, the most recent US$1.9 trillion package and everything in between, the total US commitment has been over US$5 trillion. The US Federal Reserve and it’s counterparts have bought new government debt liberally and have aggressively supported credit markets. • Oil is denominated in US dollars everywhere and a falling dollar reduces the price of oil in local currencies and puts upward pressure on oil prices. In the last quarter of 2020, that effect was evident as the trade-weighted value of the dollar fell by 5.1% and the price of WTI crude increased by 25%. In the first quarter of 2021, the price of oil continued to surge while the value of the dollar stabilized. • Economic analysts are still processing the short-run and long-run combined impact of the various economic interventions. Recently, the Federal Reserve raised its inflation forecast for this year from 1.8% to 2.4%, and the inflation rate implied by indexed treasury securities has gone up from 1.5% to 2.5% since the end of Q3 2020. Depending on what happens in other countries, further dollar devaluation could be on the horizon. 257.1 254.2 270.9 215.0 220.8 100.0 152.3 139.2 78.0 74.8 0 250 500 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 Global E&P Spending Survey (US$ billion) International North America Source: Barclays E&P spending survey, 5 January 2021 30 40 50 60 70 80 110 115 120 125 6/2020 9/2020 12/2020 3/2021 Crude oil prices US dollar index US trade weighted dollar index vs. crude oil prices Trade Weighted US Dollar Index Brent (US$/bbl) WTI (US$/bbl) Source: US EIA and Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis (FRED)
  • 7. Q2 | April 2021 EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook Page 7 Market fundamentals US majors respond to analyst concerns about energy transition Regional gas price spreads back to pre-pandemic levels • Until very recently, the oil industry’s response to the energy transition has been a “tale of two hemispheres,” with European majors acting aggressively to diversify into low- carbon businesses and US-based majors standing by their core business. • Pressure on the US majors to change course comes from multiple directions. The Biden administration has announced that it intends to re-join the Paris Agreement, the US Energy Secretary used her first public appearance to urge companies to embrace energy transition, investment funds have stated their intention to redirect capital based on companies’ performance against Environmental, Societal and Governance (ESG) metrics. Additionally, in the last round of earnings calls, the number of analyst questions to US oil majors related to decarbonization or alternative energy investments went from 1 in both 1Q20 and 2Q20, to nearly 10 in each of the last two quarters. • Companies have responded to the pressure by announcing targets for scope 1 and scope 2 emissions. Time will tell how much of a difference these announcements will make. No US majors announced scope 3 targets or plans to make significant investment in low- carbon businesses. • The global LNG market is showing signs of rebalance. Regional gas price spreads reached record highs in January before returning to pre-pandemic levels in February and March. The spread between Asian LNG spot prices and US Henry Hub prices increased ~75x from US$0.2/MMBtu in May 2020 to US$15/MMBtu in January 2021 (the highest since 2016) and settled at US$3.4/MMBtu in March 2021. • The Asian market was driven by supply disruptions in January and lower-than-expected temperatures fuelling a surge in demand. Soft demand in February and March ensued and spot prices averaged US$6.5/MMBtu and US$6.1/MMBtu, respectively. Gas stocks in Europe have declined to 31% full (below the 5-year average), largely driven by LNG exports diverted to Asia. In contrast, the US gas prices have been stable for the past three months at an average price of ~US$2.7/MMBtu. • US LNG exports are expected to head to Europe in coming months as depleted European stocks have narrowed the spreads between Asian and European markets. • Based on the financial statements of major LNG suppliers, we have estimated that a US$6/MMBtu spread is necessary to support new investment. Notwithstanding, the post- pandemic price environment seems to be stimulating interest in new LNG projects, including the recent sanctioning of a large (32 mmtpa) project in Qatar.
