Is rising Middle East gas demand encouraging investments in unconventional resources?
MENA gas challenges Explosive growth of power demand Economic and population growth Air-conditioning Petrochemicals, LNG, aluminium Mature oil fields requiring EOR Very uneven reserves distribution MENA cross-border gas trade had limited success (AGP, Dolphin) Growing challenge to maintain LNG exports with long-term contracts (Qatar, Oman, UAE) Expansion plans: New industrial cities, expansion of existing plants and transportation systems (Saudi Arabia, Oman, UAE) Lower reliance on oil revenues for exports (mainly Saudi Arabia) Growing gas E&P challenges (significant associated gas reserves especially in the GCC except in Qatar and Oman; complex and expensive sour gas reserves in the UAE and Kuwait)
MENA gas opportunities Potential new gas pipelines: Iraq-Jordan, Kurdistan-Turkey Intra-regional LNG trade (Qatar to UAE, Kuwait, Egypt, Jordan) Tight and shale gas (Algeria, Libya, Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Oman, UAE, Kuwait, Syria, Jordan) Undiscovered conventional gas deposits According to Saudi Aramco, only 15 percent of Saudi Arabia has been "adequately explored for gas. New gas basins: Eastern Mediterranean, Iraqi Kurdistan Source: MENA Gas Wealth to Last Over 20 Years, Emirates 24/7
This report answers: What is the current state of play regarding shale/tight gas exploration in the MENA region? Which are the best shale gas markets? Which MENA countries are the most attractive to invest in terms of the unconventional oil and gas market? Is there enough frac capacity and current exploration activity to reach the country s forecasted oil and gas targets? What are the number of unconventional wells in Saudi and Oman? What are the dominant proppant type per country and what are the volumes used?
