Executive Summary

The latest Thailand Oil & Gas Report from BMI forecasts that the country will account for 3.56% of Asia Pacific regional oil demand by 2013, while providing 2.78% of supply. Asia Pacific regional oil use of 21.40mn barrels per day (b/d) in 2001 reached an estimated 26.13mn b/d in 2008. It should average 26.50mn b/d in 2009, then rise to around 28.99mn b/d by 2013. In terms of natural gas, in 2008 the region consumed an estimated 443bn cubic metres (bcm) and demand of 577bcm is targeted for 2013. Production of an estimated 361bcm in 2008 should reach 483bcm in 2013, but implies net imports rising from an estimated 82bcm per annum in 2008 to 94bcm in 2013. Thailand’s share of gas consumption in 2008 was an estimated 8.35%, while its share of production was 7.47%. By 2013, its share of gas consumption is forecast to be 8.99%, with the country accounting for 7.24% of supply.

In terms of the OPEC basket of crudes, the average price in Q408 was an estimated US$52.53 per barrel (bbl), down sharply from the US$113.49/bbl recorded during the previous three months. The full-year 2008 average is put by BMI at US$94.08/bbl, representing a 36% year-on-year (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$52.00/bbl (-45% y-o-y), with Q109 expected to deliver US$40.00/bbl. The new full-year forecast implies Brent crude at US$55.65/bbl, WTI averaging US$56.63/bbl and Urals at US$52.48/bbl 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/bbl in 2011 and US$70.00/bbl in 2012. We are now using a long-term price assumption of US$70.00/bbl 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/bbl in January to a high of US$64.90/bbl in August and in December, providing a full year average of US$56.20/bbl – just over 55% of the 2008 outturn. The 2009 BMI gasoil forecast is for an average price of US$67.00/bbl, assuming a monthly low of US$46.40/bbl in January and a high of US$77.30/bbl in December. The fullyear 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/bbl in January to US$79.80/bbl in August, proving an annual level of US$69.20/bbl.

Thai real GDP growth is forecast at 3.8% for 2009, compared with an estimated 4.2% in 2008. We are now assuming 4.5% growth in 2010, followed by 5% in 2011-2013. State-controlled PTTEP and international oil company (IOC) partners are working hard to secure domestic oil and gas volumes, with limited success in terms of crude oil. We are assuming oil and gas liquids production of no more than 242,000b/d by 2013, although the country is expected to pump 295,000b/d in 2009. Consumption is expected to have stagnated in 2006 and 2007, but should then increase by up to 2% per annum in 2008- 2013, implying demand of 1.03mn b/d by the end of the forecast period. The import requirement would therefore be about 788,000b/d by 2013. End-period gas consumption of 52bcm outstrips likely supply of 35bcm.

Between 2007 and 2018, we are forecasting a reduction in Thai oil production of 39.4%, with crude volumes falling steadily to 187,000b/d in 2018. Oil consumption between 2007 and 2018 is set to increase by 24.9%, with growth slowing to an assumed 2.0% per annum towards the end of the period and the country using 1.14mn b/d by 2018. Gas production is expected to rise from around 27bcm in 2008 to a peak of 35bcm in 2012-2014, before slipping to 30bcm by 2018. With demand growth of 87%, this will require imports to rise to 36bcm by the end of the forecast period. Details of BMI’s 10-year forecasts can be found in the appendix to this report, which provides global, regional and country-specific projections.

Thailand now ranks eighth in BMI’s updated Upstream Business Environment rating, reflecting a modest resource position, moderate gas growth outlook and an IOC-friendly competitive environment. The country sits just ahead of Indonesia, but should be able to keep its Asian neighbour at bay. Thailand still ranks equal eighth with Pakistan in BMI’s updated Downstream Business Environment rating, reflecting its above-average gas demand growth outlook and relatively low level of retail site intensity. It is just ahead of Vietnam and the Philippines in the league table.
