State of the Oil Markets? U.S. and Global Refining Prospects John R. Auers, P.E. Executive Vice President Washington DC February 17, 2016
U.S. Refining is YUGE! 2
What Determines Refining Winners? Refined Product Supply/Demand Global/Regional Demand Growth Competitive Environment Investment to shape product slate/gain access to other markets $ Feedstock Supply Dynamics Regional crude supply balance/exit capacity Availability of other feedstocks/blendstocks Investment in processing capability/improved access Operating/Other Costs Natural gas price (for both energy and H2) Size/ Spreads fixed costs; both at refinery and corporate level Improved cost management Investment in energy/operating efficiencies Regulatory Environment Both regional and national regulations Can impact demand, supply and costs; affect investment options Ability to shape legislation/rulemaking Wise decision making in investment/compliance strategies 3

Regional Trends/Prospects PADD I Most Challenged Very competitive market ; USGC/Canada/Europe all fighting for share Disadvantaged crude supply environment; Export policy change/jones Act Lost 500 MBPD of capacity; access to LTO s/canadian has saved others PADD II Has Benefited From Crude Surplus Crude surplus/lack of exit capacity led to large crude discounts Significant investment to run advantaged heavy Canadian crude New pipelines/changing market have reduced discounts PADD III Significant Variability/Ability to Export Products is Key Refineries with advantaged access to Permian/Eagle Ford fared best Midstream build-out has spread advantage/refining investment also key Product exports have been big positive; helped by problems in Latin America 13 13
Regional Trends/Prospects PADD IV Both Supply and Demand Benefits Only region where domestic production exceeds crude runs Access to Canadian/Bakken crude adds to supply advantage Relatively strong and consistent demand growth Disadvantages: small/limited ability to access other markets/isolated PADD V Strong Potential; Stronger Threats Challenging Regulatory Environment Declining demand moving region from small shortage to small surplus Region about 1 refinery long; outages have caused short-term shortages Declining local supply/limited access to new LTO production 14 14

Final Thoughts on Key Issues Lower For Longer Crude Price Environment Impacts for refiners are more complex than for other market segments Positive: Stimulates demand, higher margins on certain products, lessens competition from alternatives Negative: Decreased crude and natural gas cost benefits, Regionally specific Crude producing regions negatively impacted Lifting of Crude Export Ban Short Term: No substantive impact due to current market environment Longer Term: Will keep large domestic discounts from developing, remove incentives for crude-to-product investments East Coast refiners are disadvantaged by Jones Act Other Regulations Impacting Refiners - Demand/Costs/Access Alternative fuels mandates/subsidies Carbon taxes or other petroleum focused taxes Permitting Issues For refinery and logistics investments More stringent environmental regulations (fuel specifications, CAFÉ, etc.) 20 20
Final Thoughts on Key Issues (cont.) Product Demand Will Be Key Continue to be driven by economic growth; tougher than ever to forecast Demographics population growth, economic maturation, lifestyle changes, Impacted by new technologies breakthroughs in alternatives and efficiencies, driverless vehicles, others U.S. Should Continue to Be World Leader in Refining Ability to maintain and grow product exports will be critical (esp. for USGC) Challenged by new refining capacity in both importing/exporting countries Important not be handicapped by excess regulation Benefits of domestic production growth are real; temporarily muted Can expect more rationalization of capacity in other Europe/OECD Asia 21 21
