Executive Summary

The latest Slovakia Oil & Gas Report from BMI forecasts that the country will account for 1.63% of Central and Eastern European (CEE) regional oil demand by 2013, while providing no significant contribution to supply. CEE regional oil use of 4.65mn barrels per day (b/d) in 2001 rose to 5.27mn b/d in 2007. It should average 5.36mn b/d in 2008 and then rise to around 5.99mn b/d by 2013. Regional production of 12.92mn b/d in 2007 is forecast to reach 14.96mn b/d by 2013. In terms of natural gas, the region in 2007 consumed 619bn cubic metres (bcm), with demand of 753bcm targeted for 2013, representing 21.61% growth. Production of 756bcm in 2007 should reach 913bcm in 2013, which implies net exports rising from 137bcm in 2007 to 161bcm by the end of the period. Slovakia’s share of gas consumption in 2007 was 0.95%, while its share of production was negligible. By 2013, its share of demand is forecast be 0.98%.

In Q308, we estimate that the OPEC basket price averaged US$113.60 per barrel (bbl) – down around 3.4% from the Q208 level. The OPEC basket price averaged US$112.41/bbl in August and US$97.16/bbl in September. In October, we are assuming an average of around US$113.30/bbl. The estimated Q308 average prices for the main marker blends are now US$115.67/bbl for Brent, US$117.22/bbl for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and US$113.43/bbl for Russian Urals (Mediterranean delivery). Our projections for 2008 as a whole are unchanged from the last oil market report. We are still assuming an OPEC basket price average of US$110/bbl for 2008. Based on recent price differentials, this implies Brent at US$113.33/bbl, WTI averaging US$114.58/bbl, and Urals at US$110.36/bbl. Our central view is that the OPEC basket price will fall from US$110/bbl in 2008 to US$96/bbl in 2009, before settling around US$90/bbl in 2010 onwards.

In terms of our refined products forecasts, the BMI composite (Rotterdam, Singapore and New York) global indicator price for unleaded gasoline is expected to average approximately US$117.50/bbl during 2008. Our jet forecast for 2008 is just under US$141/bbl, up from US$89/bbl in 2007. The 60% annual increase represents the second biggest for the key refined products. With gasoil, BMI is assuming a similar gain in 2008, to an average US$137/bbl. Naphtha is expected to exhibit more modest growth, rising from US$75/bbl to US$106/bbl (+41%). During 2009, we are expecting products prices to follow the underlying crude trend lower, but to prove more resilient than the feedstock – implying a recovery in refining margins. Gasoline in 2009 is estimated at US$103/bbl, with jet falling to US$127/bbl. Gasoil is expected to average US$122/bbl, with naphtha slipping to US$91/bbl.

Slovak real GDP growth is now forecast by BMI at 7.6% for 2008, down from 10.4% in 2007. We are assuming 4.4% growth in 2009, 4.8% in 2010 and 4.2% in 2011, followed by 4.1% in 2012. Oil consumption is forecast to rise rapidly, averaging 4-5% per annum and keeping pace with underlying GDP growth. There is scope for oil consumption to reach 98,000b/d by 2013. This volume will be imported, largely from Russia. Natural gas demand may also rise at a more rapid rate if the power industry builds new gas-fired plants, although the residential gas market is close to saturation. Our forecast is for Slovakia to be consuming 7.4bcm of gas by 2013, virtually all of which will be imported.

Between 2007 and 2018, we are forecasting an increase in Slovak oil consumption of 41.8%, with import volumes rising steadily from 79,000b/d to 113,000b/d by the end of the 10-year forecast period. Gas consumption is expected to up from 5.9bcm to 9.4bcm by 2018, met largely by imports. 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.

Slovakia occupies equal sixth place with Ukraine in BMI’s updated Upstream Business Environment rating. Licensing, privatisation and country risk factors account for its mid-table score, rather than hydrocarbons wealth. Over the medium term, Slovakia it is at some risk from Romania below. The country is in the lower half of the league table in BMI’s Downstream Business Environment rating. Only in oil demand growth potential does the country score particularly well and progress further up the rankings from ninth place seems unlikely over the medium term. Country risk factors are generally favourable and there is an established competitive landscape. Turkmenistan is just one point below it in the regional rankings, and there is some risk of the Caspian state challenging for Slovakia’s position.
