4 RECAP FROM LAST MAY SAPC CHAPTER MEETING. WHERE IS OIL HEADING Ignore the Dreamers (Traders) that are talking the Market up or Down! Temporary impacts can have an impact but most of it will be short term (strike in Kuwait, fires in Canada, attacks on platforms in Nigeria Consider these facts: 1. US oil production has peaked and will drop by 1 million BBLs between 2015 and Other countries are going thru the same crisis in lost production. 2. The Debt in the Energy Market worldwide has been devastating. The survivors will not try to ramp up production or be able to get the finances for it. 3. The geopolitical turmoil in the Mid-East will play a factor. Iran and the Saudi Conflict will not go away as will there be issues with a number of other OPEC Countries

5 SAUDI IS SURROUNDED!

6 TODAYS CONSIDERATIONS Supply and Demand is heading towards a balance. There still remains excessive inventories thru out the world. Demand will continue to rise. Minor fluctuation on the Supply side will continue with the less stable countries. Saudi still calls the shots with 2 million spare capacity! Future developments will not be financially viable due to the lift costs. Not enough investment is being made in exploration (2015 lowest new conventional discoveries since Geopolitical tensions with OPEC countries will continue The Mid-East oil industry will remain relatively robust due to the low cost of producing

7 WHERE OIL WILL BE OVER THE NEXT YEAR. Do not expect to see oil below $40/bbl unless the world economy tanks, driving down consumption Do not expect to see oil above $60/bbl unless some major incident happens that gets the traders/speculators worked up. (Major disruption) Oil should trade at $50/bbl (+/- $10) Long term the price of oil has no choice but to continue to rise as supply has trouble meeting demand.

17 CAPITALISM AT WORK LEAVE IT TO THE YANKS TO SCREW THINGS UP

18 SOMETHING HAD TO GIVE AND IT DID!!!!!!!!

19 PRICE OF BRENT OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS

20 $ billions $250 $200 $150 $100 $50 MARKET CONDITIONS Major & European IOCs Upstream Capital Spending Outlook $218 $208 $181 $126-45% $120 Substantial reduction in upstream capex among Major & European IOCs since 2013 unprecedented decline in exploration spending 2016 upstream capex for Major & European IOCs expected to decline ~30% year-over-year, but bottoming in 2017 $0 Significant pullback in spending will affect supply in the future Source: IHS Energy Notes: Group of Major & European integrated oil companies includes BP, Chevron, Eni, ExxonMobil, OMV, Repsol, Shell/BG, Statoil and Total; historical years include acquisitions; 2016 and 2017 estimates exclude acquisitions

21 PATH TO RECOVERY Commodity Breakeven Economics Offshore Rig Supply Catalyst Markets Improvement / stabilization in oil prices Re-engineering / standardization / innovation Retirement of older, less capable assets Brazil opens pre-salt to more players Cost deflation and efficiency gains Deferral and cancellation of newbuild deliveries Mexico offshore lease sales and entrance of international operators

22 OFFSHORE BREAKEVEN ECONOMICS IMPROVING Offshore Outlook Customers attention has turned to project re-engineering, efficiency gains and better expense management Cost deflation across supply chain: operators, service companies Statoil Johan Castberg BP Mad Dog Phase 2 Recent Customer Commentary on Deepwater Projects Reduced breakeven cost from >$80/bbl to <$45/bbl through supply chain savings, optimized project design and standardized and simplified solutions Cost estimates reduced to less than $9 billion from prior estimate of $20 billion Project re-engineering through standardization and scope optimization, coupled with industry deflation, resulted in significantly less capital required to develop approximately 90% of resources Break-even economics are improving significantly for offshore projects Shell Vito Lowered estimated breakeven cost from >$60/bbl to $45/bbl through project re-scoping Sources: Statoil 4 February 2016 Capital Markets Day; BP 17 June 2016 Bloomberg interview; Shell Capital Markets Day 7 June 2016

23 OFFSHORE BREAKEVEN ECONOMICS IMPROVING Project breakevens for pre-fid deepwater projects have been reduced to $45 per barrel on average Brazilian pre-salt project breakevens under $40 per barrel on average Cost reductions have led to an average project breakeven of $40 to $45 per barrel Average breakeven prices for future projects on Norwegian continental shelf have been reduced from $70 per barrel to approximately $40 per barrel Deepwater single-well breakeven economics between $20 per barrel and $40 per barrel for brownfield developments in U.S. Gulf of Mexico Sources: Shell Capital Markets Day 7 June 2016; Maersk Earnings Release 12 August 2016; Statoil 29 August 2016 Upstream Interview; Chevron 29 April 2016 earnings conference call

24 FUTURE CATALYST MARKETS: BRAZIL In 1Q16, the Brazilian Senate passed a bill that would eliminate requirement for Petrobras to manage all pre-salt operations and hold a minimum 30% stake in pre-salt projects More recently, Statoil conditionally acquired Petrobras 66% operating interest in BM-S-8 offshore Brazil including the Carcará discovery for $2.5 billion Diversification of customer base offshore Brazil is ongoing with outstanding tenders from Premier, Total and Chevron We believe in the strong fundamentals of Brazil and the fundamentals of its geology. We will be looking at a substantial part of our production from Brazil. Ben van Beurden, Shell CEO February 2016

25 FUTURE CATALYST MARKETS: MEXICO During 4Q15, an auction was completed for shallow-water blocks offshore Mexico, awarding licenses to several exploration and production companies Deepwater blocks are scheduled to be auctioned in late 2016 with 26 E&Ps registered for participation including several integrated oil companies Regardless of what happens in the international context, Mexico will move forward with the energy reform implementation. Enrique Peña Nieto, President of Mexico February 2016

26 JACKUPS FLOATERS ATTRITION OF OLDER RIGS 60 more floaters could be retired by year-end 2017 if attrition continues at similar rates observed throughout the downturn Retired to Date 63 floaters retired since 3Q14 Currently Idle ~35 floaters >30 years of age idle without followon work could be retired Expiring Contracts ~25 floaters >30 years of age have contracts expiring before YE17 without followon work could be retired Up to 150 additional jackups could be retired as expiring contracts and survey costs lead to the removal of older rigs from drilling supply Retired to Date 20 competitive jackups retired since 3Q14 Currently Idle 87 competitive jackups >30 years of age idle without followon work could be retired Expiring Contracts 63 jackups >30 years of age have contracts expiring before YE17 without followon work could be retired Source: IHS-ODS Petrodata as of August 2016; competitive jackups are independent leg cantilever rigs, retired includes scrapped rigs, announced scrapping and rigs converted to non-drilling units. Historical attrition ratio of 88% for floaters older than 35 years of age and 67% for floaters between 30 and 35 years of age applied annually to rigs that are currently idle or rolling off contract for each age category.

29 WHAT WILL NEEDS TO HAPPEN BEFORE THINGS PICK UP! Price of Oil needs to stabilize and increase to $60 plus for a period of time by Supply and Demand coming into Balance. In return the following will happen: Gain confidence so people are willing to invest in the Oil Industry Financial communities, stockholders and oil companies. Oil companies borrowing money to pay dividends and not invest in E&P. Numerous countries are highly dependent on Oil Revenues requiring a higher price to stimulate their economies and spend on E&P. Deferred development programs become economically viable. Encourages exploration to replace dwindling reserves/portfolios of the Operators.

30 WHAT WILL NEEDS TO HAPPEN BEFORE THINGS PICK UP! Operators, Contractors and Service Companies need to actively continue with innovative ways to reduce the overall lift costs Consolidations, reorganizations and bankruptcies to increase significantly over the next couple of years. AMATEUR HOUR IS OVER Going forward only the strong will survive. Rig attrition to continue improving rig supply dynamics. Unfortunately based on a recent report by Clarkson's Platou (Sept 2016) the Jackup market will not balance until 2030 at the current retirement rate of 13 jackups /year. The Floater market is currently much better off and will balance by 2019 provided that the annual retirement pace of 31 rigs/year is maintained.
