The trajectory that the breakeven oil price takes in the Middle East is an important barometer not just for oil industry analysts but for political watchdogs as well.
8For the Gulf as a whole, the external breakeven price has declined from an average of $62/bbl to $49 in 2017.
8The external breakeven oil prices are the oil prices that cover the import bill of a hydrocarbon-exporting economy and at which the current account is balanced.
8For Saudi Arabia, the price has fallen from $73 in 2014 to $45 in 2018 in Saudi Arabia Kuwait's external breakeven oil price however went up to $43/bbl to $52 in 2018.
8The price is expected to keep going down as non-oil revenues rise and public expenditure is cut
8But the point to note is that the external breakeven point is not the same as the fiscal break even level, when the price of oil equals the total expenditure of the government.
8In this context, it projected that the fiscal breakeven oil price in Bahrain will decrease from $116 in 2014 to $96 in 2018, while falling from $103 in 2014 to $82 in 2018 in Oman, regressing from $106 in 2014 to $74 in 2018 in Saudi Arabia and dropping from $83 in 2014 to $62 in 2018 in the UAE
8On the other hand, Qatar's fiscal breakeven oil price will rise from $54/bbl in 2014 to $60 in 2018.
8Unless the fiscal breakeven point is reached, these countries will continue to burn their foreign exchange reserves to fund their economies

MRPL's Q3 numbers posted a higher than expected profitability on the back of inventory gains
8But the company's core GRM numbers were disappointing
8The inventories gains won't stay on for too long so operating performance will have to improve
8On an operational basis, MRPL has an edge over other refineries with its refining complexity number at 10, which is higher than most PSU refineries.
8So what prevents the company from pushing itself up?

The website carries here a projection of how sea borne trade will evolve by the year 2050.
8It is expected to grow by 60% till then from now.
8World oil consumption to peak in 2020s, thereafter decline.
8The important finding is that gas demand will grow until 2035 before beginning to decline.
8Another fact that comes out is that offshore shipping activity related to new oil and gas field developments will likely more than halve
8But offshore wind will grow.
8Gas carriers and container ship will see the largest relative growth.
8New tech "carbon robust" ships will make their appearance and will grow rapidly.

When it comes to a pipeline tariff hike, the usual procedure is to shoot for the moon so as to be able to land on the trees.
8Gujarat State Petronet Ltd is no exception to this convention.
8But nevertheless a higher tariff ruling is expected from the fully functional PNGRB in the next months on the company's application.
8The question is whether the company will be able to sustain higher volumes in the face of rising LNG prices
8RIL's continued demand for high volumes of gas through GSPL's network is a big shot in the arm but only for now. While this is indicative of the extra time taken to stablize RIL's gasification plants, RIL volumes will taper off sooner than later.
8Volumes will have to kick in from elsewhere.

Completely eliminating coal-fired power generation globally, it is estimated, could entail construction of over 10,000 power plants at an estimated cost of $ 3-7 trillion using natural gas-fired capacity as a replacement.
8Alternately, the cost of a theoretical wind-and-battery storage combination is about 2.5 times that range.
8The natural gas option exceeds today's market capitalization of the entire S&P Energy index by roughly fourfold, while the wind-battery option is about 10 times today's market capitalization of the S&P Energy index as a whole.
8So think carefully before you speak of the end of coal as a fuel for the future

The entry of RIL-BP as a competitive supplier of gas in India can have a big impact only if the government plays along and brings about much needed reforms in this segment of the economy.
8Unless the stratified common carrier paradigm that underpins the midstream sector is unlocked, monopoly owners of the infrastructure are unlikely to allow for much progress.
8A case at point is a similar foray by Shell, which already has an LNG terminal in operation. The company is the largest global LNG player and yet in India, it remained stymied by lack of direct access to customers.
8With both BP and Shell actively involved in the Indian market, it is time for the government to break up GAIL into its marketing and transmission arms as a first step towards reforming the sector. The petroleum minister has been making noises about bringing about a change but so gripping is GAIL's hold on the government, and perhaps rightfully so, that change, if any, is going to come only in driblets. It is futile to expect the government to open up the sector in one striking move.
8Unlike Shell, RIL-BP has a bigger exposure to market and is likely to push the government on reforms
8The PNGRB, now under a no-nonsense boss, can play a bigger and more assertive role as well
8RIL thought it could break the monopolies in existence in the sector when it drew first gas in the KG basin. That attempt was unsuccesful.

Quietly but purposefully, Vedanta is going about pushing investments into its oil & gas asssets
8A set of big investments have already been put into action, with contracts awarded.
8It is also following up aggressively on an exploration programme, both onshore and offshore, in search for new reserves.
8Vedanta, just like RIL, understands how to do business in India and is very bullish on how much further it can push its E&P assets.
8Vedanta chief Anil Agarwal leaves no stone unturned in New Delhi's corridors of power to get what he wants.
8Unlike RIL-BP, Vedanta has plans to aggressively look for new acreages in the OLAP rounds
8A part of the bullishness stems from the fact that it believes that Indian E&P can give 20% or higher returns at less than $40/bbl. RIL-BP on the other hand did not share such an experience
8The Vedanta confidence stems from its success in keeping production cost extremely low in its Barmer field. Barmer's water flood OPEX was at a mere $4.3/barrel. Blended operating cost was at $6.4/barrel.
8But the sand dunes of Rajasthan are different from the choppy waters of the KG Basin.
8Only time will tell whether its ambitious foray into offshore exploration will bear results.

If the world has what is actually an inexhaustible supply of oil, what should the long-run equilibrium price?
8Since some see the trajectory of the oil market following that of coal and ‘oil could become the new coal’, then ‘oil prices could converge to the level of coal prices, about $15 per barrel in 2015 prices by the early 2040s’.
8To be more specific, the long-term equilibrium price should equate with the marginal cost of the lowest cost producer plus the return on capital in developing and producing these reserves.
8Are prices eventually go down, as they ideally should, to these levels?
8The answer is no.
