10 IHS is Assessing the Contribution of the Unconventional Oil and Gas Industry to the US Economy on Three levels October 2012: National Level Economic Contribution The direct, indirect and induced impact of the unconventional oil and gas industry on the US economy as measured in jobs, GDP contribution, labor income and government revenue. December 2012: State Level Economic Contribution The national contribution assessment is further broken down to the state level. The use of extensive domestic supply chains means benefits will accrue even to states that are not unconventional energy producers February 2013: The Manufacturing Renaissance An assessment of how unconventional gas -- as both an energy source and industrial feedstock will alter the competitiveness of the US manufacturing sector on the world stage 10

11 Unconventionals are redefining energy importexport dynamics US Oil import requirements down from 60% in 2005 to 42% today Tight oil plays have added nearly 1.8 million barrels per day of new domestic crude oil production, helping to reverse a three-decade decline in US oil production US natural gas production up 25% over the same period From 52 billion cubic feet (Bcf) per day in 2005 to 65 Bcf per day Driven largely by unconventional gas activity The increase in US natural gas production from shale gas and tight gas plays is making it possible that the United States will become a net exporter of gas by the end of this decade. 11

12 Launching a game-changing transformation of the US economy Cumulative capital investment by 2035 will surpass $5.1 trillion $87B today, almost doubling to $173 by 2020 Average of $200B through 2035 Capital investments will also be dispersed throughout the United States via an extensive network of domestic suppliers Businesses in states that do not directly produce unconventional energy will benefit as participants in the supply network. Fosters employment gains across many industries and regions of the US More on this in Part 2 of the America s New Energy Future Series (November 2012) Unconventional Capex and Opex creates jobs In 2012, unconventionals supported more than 1.7 million jobs, 360,000 direct oil and gas jobs, 537,000 indirect supplier-industry jobs, and 850,000 induced jobs. A total of 3 million and 3.5 million jobs on 2020 and 2035, respectively 12

13 Unconventional Oil and Gas Supply & Demand 13

14 Unconventional Oil and Gas Plays in North America 14 Enough to satisfy more than 100 years of consumption at current rates

15 Unconventional Tight Oil will dominate US by 2015 US Tight Oil Production Outlook: 2012 to 2035 Million Barrels per Day Tight Oil production share 32% in % in % in Conventional Deep-Water Tight Oil 15

16 Unconventional oil production, decreasing demand and improved fuel efficiency are driving down US oil imports US Average Net Oil Imports*: 2000 to 2012 Million Barrels per Day The 1.7 mbd of domestic tight oil production will reduce US oil imports by $70B in 2012 Without tight oil production, the US trade deficit would increase by 10%

17 Unconventional Gas Production Transformation Sources of Changes in Annual Gas Production Levels, Unconventional Gas Production increased 17.7 Bcf per day Bcf per day Conventional Gas Production declined 4.0 Bcf per day Production Decline in Conventional Production Increase in Unconventional Production 2011 Production

18 Unconventional natural gas currently accounts for 75% of US lower-48 gas production capacity and is expected to exceed 90% by 2035 US Lower 48 Natural Gas Productive Capacity* Outlook by Type: 2012 to 2035 Bcf per Day Shale share of gas production capacity 37% in % in % in 2035 Associated CBM Conventional Tight Gas Shale Gas NOTE: *Productive capacity is the amount of gas that can be produced if unconstrained by infrastructure bottlenecks. 18

19 Unconventional gas production is transforming the LNG import/export dynamics US Average Annual Natural Gas Net Imports: 2000 to 2011 Bcf 5,000 4,500 Five years ago the US was on track to spend $100B annual on LNG imports 4,000 3,500 3,000 Today there are discussions on the US becoming a LNG exporter 2,

20 Domestic Demand Drivers for Gas, Demand will increase from approximately 69 bcf/day in 2012 to 84 bcf/day in 2020 Increased Domestic Demand (Residential, Commercial, Industrial, and PowerGen) will account for nearly 46% of the growth (6.9 bcf/d) Chemicals and Manufacturing will lead the Natural Gas Intensive Industries in growth Bcf per day Sources of Demand Growth, Changes in Import/Export patterns will account for 54% of growth (7.8 bcf/d) Demand Domestic Demand Increase LNG Exports Exports to Mexico Reduction in Imports from Canada 2020 Demand 20

21 Measuring the Economic Contributions 21

22 Nearly $5.1 trillion in cumulative capital investments are expected to be made between 2012 and Unconventional Oil and Gas Capital Expenditures (billions of 2012 dollars) Unconventional Gas Unconventional Oil

23 Defining the Economic Contribution Direct Contribution Impact on the core producing industries: Exploring, producing, transporting and delivering to downstream elements or providing critical onsite services Indirect Contribution Impact on the supply chain and their supplier industries Induced Contribution Expenditure induced impact through household income 23

24 From 2012 to 2035 the employment contribution of the unconventional oil and gas industry will double 4,000 3,500 3,000 2,500 Induced Indirect Direct Employment Contributions of Unconventional Oil and Gas Activity (thousands of workers) 2,000 1,500 1,

25 ...Causing a Ripple Effect Through the Economy Employment Contribution in 2020 Others 2,188,625 Oil & Gas Extraction 210,758 Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services 102,294 Food Services & Drinking Places 157,807 Machinery Manufacturing 115,730 Real Estate 107,660 Wholesalers 102,294 Upstream unconventional oil and natural gas activity, on average, demonstrates one of the larger employment multipliers. On average direct employment will represent about 20% of all job resulting from unconventional oil and gas activity with the balance contributed by indirect and induced employment. 25

26 Net New Employment short term The US economy has been stagnant and operating below potential since , and is expected to continue as such until at least The current unemployment rate is 7.8% whereas IHS Global Insight considers a 4.9% rate to be the full employment level. Hence, a large portion of the jobs contribution over are truly net new jobs that would not otherwise have existed. That is, a large portion of the 2.5 million workers whose direct/indirect/induced jobs are due to the unconventional oil and gas industry would be unemployed without this industry. The 4.9% unemployment rate is what is naturally to be expected given normal turnover within the labor market without causing inflationary pressure from excess demand for labor. As long as unemployment stays above this rate, we can consider a large portion of the forecast jobs to be jobs that otherwise would not have existed. 26

27 Net New Employment longer term Over the long term the economy will move much closer to full employment. The 3.5 million supported jobs in 2035 are real, but in the absence of unconventional energy activity most of the people in those jobs would have found jobs in other sectors. However, unconventional energy activity will be creating real, incremental value added and net new labor (and other) income that will be making all workers richer than they would have been otherwise. Without unconventional energy, the 3.5 million workers in 2035 would have ended up working in other sectors of the economy, but the average household would be poorer. A bigger pie: increased income from the exploitation of the unconventional oil and gas resources A bigger slice of the pie: increased demand for labor increases wages. 27

28 By 2020, the annual contribution of unconventional oil and gas activity to GDP is projected to reach $416 billion and by 2035 is expected to reach $475 billion Induced Indirect Direct Value Added Contributions to GDP of Unconventional Oil and Gas Activity (billions of 2012 dollars)
