2017 Conference Abstract Since the collapse of oil prices in late 2014, petroleum industry players have worked towards reducing costs and increasing production efficiency, whilst coping with a dramatic drop in investments. Following a historic decision towards the end of 2016 by major OPEC and non- OPEC producers to cut production, prices have recovered and a floor price of around USD 50 a barrel appears to have been established after a roller-coaster ride of more than two years. Politically, 2016 was marked by Brexit and victory for the Republican candidate in the US presidential election. As other major economies of the Euro zone go to the polls in 2017, it is to be seen how the global political landscape, as well as energy and environmental policies, will be shaped by the outcome of these elections and what impact they will have on the global economy, petroleum demand and the oil and gas industry in general. Fundamentals of global supply and demand, the swift response of US shale producers to oil and gas price movement, and financing options available to producers will all continue to have their impact on global oil and gas prices as well as investment in exploration and development activities. As oil price volatility reduces, the valuation gap between sellers and buyers/investors is expected to narrow, resulting in increased Acquisition and Divestment activity. By all accounts, 2017 will be an exciting year for the oil and gas industry. As new realities unfold, we will embrace new ideas and adopt new approaches to doing business and transform our industry towards a vibrant, profitable and sustainable future in this new epoch.

The audience will gain an understanding of the importance of a sound corporate financial footing whilst understanding the attributes that will permit oil & gas development projects to proceed and be viewed favourably by the investment community. The impact of price hedging and costs on project viability will also be discussed. 13:15-15:15 Session 3: The End Game/Mature Provinces (North Sea, West Africa) Session Chairs: Carolina Coll and Madhav Kulkarni, Marathon Oil Operators are confronted with decisions of whether to sell mature assets, invest in the modernisation of the asset, or incur the cost of decommissioning. Mature assets have become strategic acquisitions for low cost operating companies. With the support of the financial sector, that has also moved focus from exploration appraisal stage and pre-development acquisitions financing to mature assets acquisitions, where production exists and value can be quickly be monetised through lower cost production. Mature assets have a long production history with operating infrastructure potentially close to its design life.

OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY IN A NEW EPOCH SPE LONDON ANNUAL CONFERENCE 2017 For mature assets, the main risk for economic viability is often related to the aging of the facilities impacting availability and downtime, in addition to well integrity issues such as sand production, erosion, flow assurance, corrosion and lack of production optimisation technologies. Multibillion dollar transactions in the UK mature asset arena during 2016, demonstrate continued interest and economic viability of these assets. On the other hand, West Africa offshore developments have witnessed slowdowns with the lack of financing compounded by lower commodity prices and risk perception. As operations of the mature assets transition to smaller producers, the focus appears to be on optimising field output and opportunities to defer multimillion dollar decommissioning costs. This session focusses on both the opportunities and real world concerns related to mature assets with strategic focus on North Sea and West Africa. 15:15-15:30 Coffee Break 15:30-17:30 Session 4: Technology, Innovation and Project Hotspots in the Upstream World Session Chair: Ramin Lakani, HARPS Holdings Overview of upstream Hotspots in the past couple of years Which companies and countries have made a significant impact despite the challenging environment? Looking ahead, what is likely to be Hot in the next couple of years? This session will look at winning Themes, Technologies, Projects, Countries, Basins and Individuals. As the industry adjusts to the energy prices and activities pick up, we will take a close look at the Hotspots in the Upstream world. There have been signs that exploration activities could pick up and counter cyclic investors might look at new acreage. We will examine technological innovations and project financing ideas that could make a difference in our industry. As always, when there is volatility and uncertainty, there are winners and losers. This session will bring you three speakers to talk about what has been Hot in the past year and what might be even Hotter in the near future. 17:30-18:30 Networking Reception (Timings maybe subject to change)
