The latest Kuwait Oil & Gas Report from BMI forecasts that the country will account for 2.68% of Middle East (ME) regional oil demand by 2013, while providing 10.52% of supply. Regional oil use of 8.24mn barrels per day (b/d) in 2001 rose to an estimated 10.86mn b/d in 2008. It should average 11.09mn b/d in 2009 and then rise to around 12.08mn b/d by 2013. Regional oil production in 2001 was 22.87mn b/d, and in 2008 averaged an estimated 25.94mn b/d. It is set to rise to 28.99mn b/d by 2013. Oil exports are growing steadily, because demand growth is lagging the pace of supply expansion. In 2001, the region was exporting an average 14.63mn b/d. This total had risen to an estimated 15.08mn b/d in 2008 and is forecast to reach 16.91mn b/d by 2013.
In terms of natural gas, the region in 2008 consumed an estimated 395bn cubic metres (bcm), with demand of 573bcm targeted for 2013, representing 45.0% growth. Production of an estimated 410bcm in 2008 should reach 617bcm in 2013 (+50.5%), which implies net exports rising to 45bcm by the end of the period. Kuwait in 2008 consumed an estimated 3.54% of the region’s gas, with its market share forecast at 5.57% by 2013. It contributed an estimated 3.41% to 2008 regional gas production and, by 2013, will account for 3.34% of supply.
In terms of the OPEC basket of crudes, the average price in Q4 2008 was an estimated US$52.53/bbl, down sharply from the US$113.49 recorded during the previous three months. The full year 2008 average is put by BMI at US$94.08/bbl, representing a 36% y-o-y increase. North Sea Brent, WTI and Russian Urals are believed to have averaged US$97.06, US$99.33 and US$94.56/bbl respectively during 2008. For 2009, we are now assuming an average OPEC basket price of US$52/bbl (-45% y-o-y), with Q109 expected to deliver US$40.00. The new full year forecast implies Brent crude at US$55.65, WTI averaging US$56.63/bbl and Urals at US$52.48 for 2009. For 2010, we expect to see a recovery to US$58.00/bbl for the OPEC price, gaining further ground to US$65.00 in 2011 and US$70.00/bbl in 2012. We are now using a long-term price assumption of US$70.00 for 2013-2018, down from our previous assumption of US$90.00/bbl.
In 2009, we see monthly average global wholesale gasoline prices ranging from US$38.90 in January to a high of US$64.90 reached in August and in December, providing a full year average of US$56.20 – just over 55% of the 2008 outturn. The 2009 BMI gasoil forecast is for an average price of US$67/bbl, assuming a monthly low of US$46.40 in January and a high of US$77.30/bbl in December. The full-year outturn represents a 45% downturn from the 2008 level. For 2009, the monthly average jet fuel price is forecast to range from US$47.90 in January to US$79.80/bbl in August, proving an annual level of US$69.20/bbl.
Kuwaiti real GDP growth is estimated by BMI at 5.5% for 2009, following an estimated 7.2% in 2008. We are assuming 5.3% growth in 2010, 3.8% in 2011, followed by 3.7% in 2012/13. We expect oil demand to rise from an estimated 282,000b/d in 2008 to 323,000b/d in 2013, lagging the underlying rate of economic expansion. State oil company Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) is responsible for all domestic oil and gas operations. In spite of the absence of near-term international oil company (IOC) investment, crude production is forecast to increase from an estimated 2.73mn b/d in 2008 to 3.05mn b/d in 2013, subject to OPEC quotas. Gas production should reach 20.6bcm by 2013, up from an estimated 14.0bcm in 2008. Consumption is expected to rise from 14.0bcm to 31.9bcm by the end of the forecast period, requiring imports of 11.3bcm.
Between 2007 and 2018, we are forecasting an increase in Kuwaiti oil production of 40.9%, with crude volumes rising steadily to 3.70mn b/d by the end of the 10-year forecast period. Oil consumption between 2007 and 2018 is set to increase by 42.4%, with growth slowing to an assumed 4.0% per annum towards the end of the period and the country using 393,000b/d by 2018. Gas production is expected to climb to almost 28bcm by the end of the period. With 2007-2018 demand growth of 308%, this provides an import requirement rising to almost 24bcm by 2018. Details of the new BMI 10-year forecasts can be found in the appendix to this report, which provides global, regional and country-specific projections.
Kuwait still occupies eighth place in BMI’s updated Upstream Business Environment rating, which is a surprising outcome given its vast oil and gas wealth. It is just one place ahead of Bahrain, but should be safe from any challenge thanks to its superior hydrocarbons position. The country’s score suffers from strict government control of the upstream industry, undermining the healthy resource position. The country is in the lower half of the league table in BMI’s Downstream Business Environment rating, with a few high scores and near-term progress up the rankings a possibility. It is ranked eighth ahead of Bahrain and Iraq, thanks largely to excellent country risk factors that outweigh a highly regulated and largely state-controlled industry. Qatar is immediately above it in the regional rankings, but is likely to pull further away during the next few quarters.
