1 BSTDB: The Black Sea Trade and Development Bank Black Sea Oil & Gas Forum (Sofia, Bulgaria) March 2013

2 Black Sea Oil & Gas: Legal, Regulatory & Market Considerations The Black Sea Region forms both: An energy bridge between suppliers and consumers in the EU; and An exploration and production source for offshore resources. EU & Russia are key considerations for the In coming decades the EU & RU are to remain respectively the largest importer and largest exporter of natural gas in the world Building a Pan-European Energy Market (i.e. Energy Security) relies on unbundling, investment in interconnectors, diversification of supply, and of course Russia Most EU countries rely on imports of oil & gas (between %) 35% of EU oil comes from Russia & 40% of its gas Largest share of oil & gas supply comes from countries that do not apply OECD or WTO rules (and are usually politically controlled).

3 Black Sea Oil & Gas: Legal, Regulatory & Market Considerations Primary Energy Consumption in the EU:

4 Black Sea Oil & Gas: Legal, Regulatory & Market Considerations

5 Black Sea Oil & Gas: Legal, Regulatory & Market Considerations EU s External Energy Policy Looking to align existing international agreements (primarily gas) with EU internal market rules and strengthening cooperation before they sign new ones. New certification procedure for Transmission System Operators owned by non- EU nationals is seen as insufficient to address perceived imbalance. EU has attempted to extend and deepen this by integrating neighbouring countries (e.g. UA signed Feb 2011). The effect on South Stream and Gazprom related projects is unclear. Diversification strategies that ignore RU are doomed to failure and/or low efficiency. Southern Corridor is key!

6 Black Sea Oil & Gas: Legal, Regulatory & Market Considerations

7 Black Sea Oil & Gas: Legal, Regulatory & Market Considerations Black Sea Countries Strategies BU: has signed a pipeline deal with Russia as wants to have role in transit as well as E&P. RO: Wants to have role in transit as well as E&P activities offshore. RU: Major energy exporter and seeks to have influence in region. TU: Looking to become a energy transit hub not only for RU, but also for AZ, Caucuses and the Middle East. UA: Highly dependent on RU, while striving to diversify sources. Transit pipeline is key but may lose independence. Shale Gas bonanza and the environmental considerations also weigh highly.

8 Black Sea Oil & Gas: Legal, Regulatory & Market Considerations Market / Financing Implication Building a Pan-European Energy Market will require over 1 Trillion of investment in the coming years. 19b priority gas pipeline projects identified & 6b electricity transmission projects already identified. In addition EU Countries have signed up to 20:20:20 Directive which requires further investment in Renewable production, energy efficiency and reducing GHGs. Private (bank /markets /corporate) financing challenged due to current financial malaise Sovereign / State financing limited due to reduced budgets and current targets Need for more Multilateral involvement (EIB, EBRD, IFC, BSTDB, etc.)
