  2. Slide 2: Disclaimer and Important Notice

    Disclaimer and Important Notice This presentation contains forward looking statements that are subject to risk factors associated with the oil and gas industry. It is believed that the expectations reflected in these statements are reasonable, but they may be affected by a range of variables which c

  3. Slide 3: Urbanisation favours natural gas

    Good morning everyone and thank you for your kind introduction. Every week from across the globe there are about 1.3 million new people moving to cities. That's around 70 million people per year, decade after decade migrating from rural areas to cities. This is the largest movement of people to citi

  4. Slide 4: The growth of the LNG industry over the last 30 years

    The growth of the LNG industry over the last 30 years has been remarkable – and has transformed the energy markets of the 22 countries who rely on liquefied natural gas for at least a share of their fuel mix. Yet, from its origins in Algeria and Alaska, by 1980 LNG still only represented just 2% of

  5. Slide 5: Timeline of Australian LNG growth

    As you can see from this timeline, the seemingly overnight growth in Australian LNG has truly been extraordinary! If we put Darwin LNG aside for the moment, then for over 20 years, Australian LNG was a one horse race. Turning the clock to 2018, another 8 projects under construction are expected to b

  6. Slide 6: Conventional west and CSG-to-LNG east projects

    Here is another view of the same data that shows that the story of Australia’s LNG industry is one of conventional LNG projects to the west and the pioneering Coal Seam Gas to LNG projects over to the east. The North West Shelf project is, if you like, the grandfather of the Australian LNG industry

  7. Slide 7: Strong demand driven by Asia

    We see three key factors. First of all, strong demand. And on just about every measure, the driver for future LNG demand comes from Asia. These forecasts are from the Energy Information Administration, which is the statistical arm of the US Department of Energy. Between now and 2035, Asia is expecte

  8. Slide 8: Asian LNG marketplace segments

    This slide shows you how we look at the Asian LNG marketplace. The first group is the Established LNG markets of Japan, South Korea and Taiwan. These established countries are the bedrock of Asian LNG. Their LNG demand is driven by the power generation sector and they continue to seek security of su

  9. Slide 9: South East Asia regasification terminals

    This map of South East Asia shows existing and proposed regasification terminals, including floating regas which is fantastic technology. In simple terms, floating regasificiation is where a LNG tanker unloads offshore directly onto a floating regasification vessel, connected by pipe to the onshore

  10. Slide 10: Quality of Australia's gas resources

    The quality of Australia’s gas resources is the second important factor that we see. Australian resources will play a significant role in meeting Asian energy demand. Australia is on the doorstep of Asia, but its not just its close proximity that makes it competitive. According to government sources

  11. Slide 11: Oil-linked pricing in Asia

    And so where are we? • We see unprecedented Asian demand. • We know that Australian gas is abundant and available. • The third factor is price. You must have the right price to support the size and scale of Australian green field projects. It has been the oil-linked pricing and the opportunity of eq

  12. Slide 12: US shale gas exports into Asia

    There has been a lot in the news recently about US shale gas exports into Asian oil-linked markets and we are often asked about the impact of LNG supplies from North America on Asian market dynamics and ultimately – Asia Pacific LNG Pricing. The debate has shifted from “IF” North American exports wi

  13. Slide 13: How Santos fits: Australia, LNG and Asia

    I’d like if I can to say a few words on how Santos fits into this picture. • Australia: • LNG; and • Asia It is on each of these three strategic pillars that Santos has constructed its strategy which is to: • Safely deliver our Australian base business • Grow our LNG business, and •Thirdly, our Asia

  14. Slide 14: Santos equity stakes in four LNG projects

    Santos has equity stakes in 4 LNG projects: •The operational Darwin LNG project led by Conoco Phillips. •The sanctioned PNG LNG project led by Exxon Mobil. •The floating Bonaparte LNG project with our partners GDF Suez. And of particular interest today is the 16 billion dollar - two train - Santos G

  15. Slide 15: Long-term contracts with Asian LNG customers

    Darwin’s output is sold under long-term contracts to Tokyo Electric and Tokyo Gas. PNG LNG has signed similar long-term agreements with Tokyo Electric, Osaka Gas, Sinopec and CPC in Taiwan. And GLNG has sold 7 million tonnes per annum to PETRONAS and KOGAS. This means Santos has strong relationships

  16. Slide 16: Australia's CSG-to-LNG projects and GLNG

    In 2007, Santos was first to announce plans for our pioneering CSG-to-LNG project. Along the way we have been joined by world class partners: Petronas, Total and KOGAS. This map shows the location of Australia’s CSG-to-LNG projects. All the plants are located on Curtis Island in the port of Gladston

  17. Slide 17: Aerial view of the GLNG site, Curtis Island

    This photograph shows an aerial view of the GLNG site on Curtis Island. Quickly, I would just like to very briefly take you through a few highlights from this site. As you look at the photograph, on the top left, that is where our LNG offloading jetty will be located. Moving to the right, we'll have

  18. Slide 18: Production wells and agriculture co-existence

    See if you can spot one of our production wells in the distance? At Santos we are committed to working alongside agriculture. This well in our Queensland operations is typical of the size of the footprint in which we would occupy. Wells typically operate in this condition for up to 20 years – during

  19. Slide 19: Coal seam gas to LNG process

    Coal seam gas is simply methane. So the liquefaction plant for producing LNG from conventional gas and CSG is essentially identical. The difference is that, for coal seam gas, more infrastructure is required upstream to gather and compress the natural gas before it reaches the liquefaction plant. Ad

  20. Slide 20: Indonesia's CSG potential

    As Indonesia’s conventional oil and gas fields reach maturity and decline, the Indonesian government has high hopes for the transformational potential of its own CSG potential. Although resource estimates vary, projections of potential CSG resources in Indonesia of 450 Tcf are common. The vast major

  21. Slide 21: Santos in Indonesia

    Indonesia has been a focus area for Santos since the early 1990s, with existing production coming from Maleo, Oyong and Wortel fields, in addition to the Peluang gas development which we aim to sanction later this year. We view our entry into Indonesian CSG as a natural extension of our significant

  22. Slide 22: Asia as a key part of Santos' strategy

    As you can see, Asia is a key part of the Santos vision and strategy, and will be supported by our new office in Singapore opened earlier this year. As Asia continues to grow, Australian LNG will play a key role in providing our neighbours with a cleaner burning fuel that’s both available and afford
