Общий объем недоинвестирования в отрасль за 2 года приближается к $400 млрд – это те факторы, которые оказывают влияние на рынок. При этом продолжается рост спроса на нефть – примерно на 1,2 млн баррелей в сутки, по оценкам экспертов. Цена около $40 за баррель сегодня отражает реальную рыночную картину, является приемлемой и для производителей, и для потребителей нефти в условиях существующего профицита предложения.

Brent crude oil was last up 2.1% at $43.82 a barrel, above where it was before talks about a production freeze collapsed over the weekend. Analysts said oil prices drew support on Tuesday from a strike by oil workers in Kuwait, reducing concerns about a global glut of supply.

The Russian camp was locked in negotiations with the Saudis, Qataris and Venezuelans — a core group that had first backed the freeze in February.

Thousands of workers in six oil and petrochemical companies went on strike Sunday to protest proposed government cutbacks.

South America’s two largest oil producing nations face bigger threats from political turmoil than depressed crude prices, but reforms in their national oil companies (NOC) and energy ministries may be essential for their governments to survive.

The steep decline in oil prices over 2015 and the “new reality” of low prices for a longer period of time have led to the deferral of many high-cost projects. Based on research of public data and news releases, Deloitte Marketpoint estimates that non-OPEC cancellations and postponements include 1.3 million b/d of production over the next 5 years.

Проект «Ямал СПГ» действительно относится к числу приоритетных, где мы соединяем три источника финансирования: это государственное финансирование (оно составляет только относительно небольшую часть, 10–15%), это финансирование по линии российских банков и финансирование от внешних инвесторов из разных источников. Инвестиции в «Ямал СПГ» составляют огромную сумму, это несколько десятков миллиардов долларов. Это огромный, очень сложный проект на Севере, но он даст колоссальный мультипликативный эффект.

Non-OPEC oil production is declining rapidly while consumption, especially gasoline, continues to grow strongly, particularly in the United States, India and China.

Natural gas futures rose 7.6% to settle at $2.088 a million British thermal unit on the New York Mercantile Exchange, the highest in more than two months. The market has lost more than 10% this year, as a mild winter limited heating demand. But losses have been pared in recent weeks, as a cool start to spring has buoyed expectations for demand.

Tehran is seeking to make up for lost trade to Europe following the lifting of EU sanctions imposed in 2011 and 2012, which deprived it of a market that accounted for over a third of its exports and left it relying completely on Asian buyers.

Russia’s Gazprom PJSC, which is seeking to boost exports to its biggest market by revenue to a record this year, has said U.S. LNG can’t compete on price in Europe and American supplies to the region will be limited. Russia meets a third of European gas supply, with Germany being the biggest market.

A high debt-to-equity ratio can present challenges in the face of falling revenue, which most U.S. oil producers experienced in 2015 because of lower oil prices. A company agrees to the terms of a bank loan or bond issuance to fund projects with the expectation that its activities will generate sufficient revenue to service the debt and eventually repay it. Debt on the balance sheet implies future cash outflows. The need to service large amounts of debt as revenues declined made companies with high debt-to-equity ratios more vulnerable to losses than companies with less leverage in their capital structures.

During this year’s first 3 months, 39 announced oil and gas deals took place accounting for a total $28 billion vs. 39 deals worth $34.4 billion in first-quarter 2015. Total deal value was down 19%.

The sharp decline in oil prices since the fourth quarter of 2014 has had a significant effect on drilling in the United States. The number of active onshore drilling rigs in the Lower 48 states fell 78% (from 1,876 to 412) between the weeks ending on October 31, 2014, and April 15, 2016, according to data from BakerHughes. The decline in active rigs and well completions is projected to result in month-over-month onshore oil production declines of 120,000 b/d through September 2016.

В рамках возведения Кандымского ГПК будет построен газоперерабатывающий завод мощностью 8,1 млрд м3 газа в год, а также система сбора природного газа, которая на стадии полного развития включит в себя 114 добывающих скважин, 11 кустовых площадок и 4 сборных пункта. Будет построено 370 км газопроводов, проложено 160 км автодорог. На пике строительства комплекса и объектов инфраструктуры планируется задействовать около 7 тыс. человек.

Gas trade relations between Gazprom and private importers are one of the more important topics regarding the Turkish gas market.

“With this rule, the Russian government is trying to break the vicious dependence of the economy on oil via the ruble. What’s changing is that the Russian government is signaling to the market participants that the ruble will be more predictable to spur investments into the economy.”

The May crude oil contract on the New York Mercantile Exchange climbed $1.55 on Apr. 20 to $42.63/bbl. The June contract was up $1.71 to $44.18/bbl.

"I think $45 is a bit of a relief for all the oil producers around the world, but this is still far lower than to make the entire shale oil production profitable for the United States."

Since November 2014, when the oil bust started to take hold of the energy industry, Schlumberger has cut 36,000 jobs, or 28% of its workforce.
