1 2007-2008 Global financial crisis: Price of oil underwent significant decrease after record peak in July 2008 up to Feb. 2009.

2 Libya Civil War, 2011: Oil production was curtailed in Libya. Despite Saudi assured an increase in production to counter shut downs, sour type oil of Saudi could not replace sweet Libyan oil resulting an increase in oil prices.

3 2015 supply glut: From 2014 until 2016, crude price decreased mainly due to increase in production of nonOPEC oil, mostly the US shale oil. OPEC nations increased production to maintain their market share. Decrease in demand from China was also noted during the period.

4 Saudi Arabia vs Russia price war: In Sep. 2016, Saudi Arabia and Russia agreed to cooperate in managing oil price forming informal alliance of OPEC+. On 5 March 2020, OPEC summit agreed to additional production cut that was not agreed upon by Russia.

4 COVID-19: During Nov./Dec. 2019, the first case of COVID-19 virus was reported in Wuhan, China. By Feb. it spread across 213 countries. Oil prices were hit due to an increase in production by OPEC+ lead by Saudi Aramco and rapid fall of demand due to the pandemic.

• Several countries have responded by implementing a lockdown and closure of workplaces to combat COVID-19 pandemic. • Top 12 countries that are/were under lockdown (ranging from 6 to 12 weeks) are responsible for ~61 percent of crude oil demand.

Lack of storage space

Technical complexities in plugging of wells

Supply glut has filled up 76 percent of crude storage facilities in Cushing, Oklahoma USA, where crude oil is delivered per contracts. Lack of storage space and pipeline transmission capacity has pushed up storage costs forcing contract holders to sell WTI contracts at negative prices.

Reducing supply by temporarily plugging off wells is a complex job with high degree of impact on reservoir health and is also expensive and a tedious process. So operators continue to operate wells at losses.

Oil demand likely to reach 2019 level post December 2020 only • OPEC+ Russia agreed on 12 April to cut production by 9.7 Mn BOPD. • Wells with low technical risk (For example, oil sands in Canada, may shutdown ~2 Mn BOPD production in April/ May1) are expected to shutdown. • Smaller players are expected to stop production activities due to scarcity of liquid funds in the near term. • Number of active drilling rigs have come down to 465 from 991 in USA 2 on a Year-to-Year (YoY) basis, reducing exploration and well development. • Easing of lockdown measures and plans of revival of economy are expected to push the O&G demand.

On go forward prices, crude oil prices would depend on demand recovery and OPEC+ commitments on agreed productions cuts. Per experts, prices are likely to remain range bound, i.e., between USD 35 and 45 per bbl.

Lower consumption and prices have provided an opportunity to build strategic reserves • Consumption for the month of March and April 2020 was down 12 percent and 38 percent from previous months due to nation-wide lock down implemented to contain the spread of coronavirus. • Consumption has increased in May 2020 and June 2020 due to relaxation in lock down effective 8 June 2020 (Unlock 1.0) by the Indian government. Consumption increase was primarily due to increased demand of diesel and petrol. • India has used lower crude prices as an opportunity to build strategic reserves. Per union minister, India stored oil (including oil carried by private players) account for ~20 percent (39 MMT) of India’s annual consumption. • India plans to increase strategic storage capacity by 6.5 MMT over the next few years. India parked around 8.5-9 MMT of oil on ships in different parts of the world, primarily in the Gulf region during the lockdown to take advantage of lower crude prices.

Consumers are not likely to benefit from lower crude oil prices • Reduction in crude prices has not resulted in equivalent reduction in retail prices of HSD and MS in India due to increase in indirect taxes by the Central and State Governments (refer below for details of the excise duty hikes since 1 March 2020). –– 14 March: Excise duty on petrol, diesel hiked by INR 3 per litre –– 6 May: Centre raises excise duty on petrol by INR 10 per litre, diesel by INR 13 per litre –– Respective state governments have also increased VAT on petrol and diesel • Estimate of the additional government revenue cannot be made as the consumption of petrol and diesel has dropped to 35-40 percent. • June 2020 onwards increase in prices of crude has been passed on to consumers by revision in retail prices. Since 7 June 2020, OMC’s have resumed daily oil price revision.

Of the four scenarios, the following are more likely to occur: • Scenario 2: Slow, tenuous recovery in early period of FY2022 with easing of lockdown measures by Q3 FY2021 • Scenario 4: Partial removal of lockdown and subsequent outbreaks, movement restrictions continue for up to two quarters with major hotspots under prolonged lockdown, businesses resume in phased manner and recovery kicks in only in Q3 of FY2022

Medium-term disruption; significant, recurrent loss Time

Impact of COVID-19 on O&G industry

O&G industry: Post COVID-19 Possible approach for O&G industry players Contract renegotiations Reviews of contracts to renegotiate quantity, tenure, and prices

Revisit long-term strategy Undertake scenario planning and finalise strategic options in Line with energy transition

Company responses

Demand shifts Align portfolio to meet demand changes, e.g., cheaper oil may reduce shift to gas, ATF demand destruction may lead to refinery reconfigurations

Business, financial, and asset restructuring Corporate restructuring, financial/debt restructuring, M&A, distressed assets, hive-off of non-core assets, to manage debt and cash flow

Cost optimisation opportunities Cost reduction across multiple areas such as operating costs, taxation, financing costs, etc. and potential supply chain impact/optimisation Regulatory and policy interventions Government may accelerate energy investments, e.g., XI round of CGD bidding and release new regulations policies to revive growth in the sector
