10 Shale Gas in Europe or Ethane Imports? Shale gas in Europe is progressing very slowly Significant plays in England, Poland, Germany, France Resistance in France and Germany Composition of the gas is largely unknown May only compensate for the loss of gas from conventional fields There will be no repeat of the shale gas boom in the US Ethane imports from the US into Europe an alternative Ineos imports ethane into Rafnes (Norway) from 2015 onwards In spite of transport costs, advantaged position for Norway cracker Ineos aims for a repeat in Grangemouth UK Coastal competitors Borealis / Versalis / Total studying Ethane imports a differentiator giving some sites an advantage 10

28 Conclusions PE and PP PE China adds most PE plants in stagnant imports NAM (shale) leads expansion exports Rationalization in Europe 1 Mta in 2013/14 and in Slow down in ME expansions PP China adds even more PP plants in less imports NAM builds less PP, but no focus on exports Rationalization in Europe (but more modest) No expansions in ME

29 So what about Europe? Aging asset base last cracker built in 1994 Ethane imports from NAM may give some PE producers some cost advantage Shale gas development in Europe: too little too late But: Imports can not serve every segment slow process Increasing import duties for GCC producers 1 st Jan 2014 Improving economy in Europe in 2014 Long Term Gradual Decline Short Term Improvement
