2 OIL & GAS SECTOR GROUP

INTRODUCTION

Region known for mining becoming a petroleum region, led by recent large-scale gas discoveries Those recent large-scale gas discoveries have the potential to be a game changer for individual jurisdictions and wider region Next 18 months to 3 years will be critical to determining the exact scope of the impact 4

RECENT DISCOVERIES

RECENT GAME-CHANGING UPSTREAM DISCOVERIES Region known for mining becoming a petroleum region, led by recent large-scale petroleum discoveries Those recent large-scale discoveries have the potential to be a game changer for individual jurisdictions and wider region, particularly in the context of the mining sector experiencing increasing head winds o Mozambique Rovuma Area 1, operated by Anadarko, current estimated recoverable gas reserves 50 tcf Rovuma Area 4, operated by ENI, current estimated recoverable gas reserves 45 tcf Mozambique basin, operated by Sasol, possible resources of tcf Many estimate recoverable reserves to approach tcf in Mozambique o Tanzania Area operated by BG (also part owned by Ophir), current estimated recoverable gas reserves 11 tcf Area operated by Statoil (also part owned by ExxonMobil), current estimated recoverable gas reserves tcf Many estimate recoverable reserves to approach tcf in Tanzania o Botswana Large reserves of coal bed methane (CBM) gas have been discovered in Botswana The Botswana Department of Geological Survey reports that 196 tcf of "gas in place" is present in the central Kalahari Karoo Basin in Botswana o South Africa Karoo Shale Gas: Estimated resources of 485 tcf, which would make it the fifth largest shale gas field in the world Active offshore block activity given proximity to other large-scale gas finds in the region o Oil South Sudan Recent Kenyan, Ugandan, Ethiopian, DRC discoveries (plus additional West African discoveries) Namibia offshore, Lake Malawi potential, South Africa offshore? 6

NEW AFRICAN OPPORTUNITIES FOR OIL & GAS INVESTMENT 7 South Africa It is estimated that the shale gas of the southern karoo area could hold a reserve of 485 TCF, which would make it the fifth largest shale gas field in the world. Also possible large-scale offshore discoveries. Mozambique Mozambique is likely to become the worlds third largest exporter of LNG, behind Qatar and Australia with likely total gas reserves of approx. 235 tcf and plans by ENI and Anadarko to develop a US$50 billion LNG project in the country in the near term. EAST & SOUTHERN AFRICA Tanzania Tanzania reports discoveries of an estimated 35 tcf of gas, enough to make Tanzania a major player in LNG exports behind Mozambique. Many estimate recoverable reserves to approach tcf in Tanzania. Botswana Large reserves of coalbed methane (CBM) gas have been discovered in Botswana – Botswana Department of Geological Survey estimates that 196 tcf of gas in place. South Sudan Proven Oil Reserves of 3.75 billion barrels. Namibia Anticipated new large-scale offshore oil & gas discoveries. Further development of the upstream portion of the Kudu Gas Field. Kenya Onshore oil discoveries estimated at 10 billion barrels – recent Tullow Oil announcement of commercial exploitable reserves. Uganda Estimated oil reserves of 3.5 billion barrels – refinery development plans also in place. Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) Lake Albert development

PUTTING THE RECENT DISCOVERIES IN CONTEXT

PUTTING THE RECENT DISCOVERIES INTO CONTEXT Pande & Temane total reserves = 3 tcf / Recent Rovuma finds = 150 tcf (probably 250 tcf ultimately) 40% of discoverable gas from last year (2012) occurred in Mozambique (source: Wood MacKenzie) Eni and Anadarko have agreed to build the worlds second largest LNG plant with expected investment of US$50 billion; Mozambiques GDP in 2011 – US$12.8 billion Mozambique is likely to become the worlds third largest exporter of LNG, behind Qatar and Australia Statoil and BG have announced plans to eventually develop an approximately US$14 billion LNG plant in Tanzania The estimated shale gas reserves in the Southern Karoo area are at 485 tcf, which would make it the fifth largest shale gas field in the world Qatari gas reserves = 990 tcf / Recent regional finds = tcf Qatar Growth Story (source: Silk Road Finance) Multiplier2011 GDP (US$ bn) x (or 25% pa)170 GDP per capita (US$) 27,0003.6x98,000 Qatar Stock Exchange Market Cap (US$ bn) 1210x125 Banking assets (US$ bn) 1612x190

POSSIBLE CORE ECONOMIC DRIVER FOR SOUTH AFRICA The estimated shale gas reserves in the Southern Karoo area are at 485 tcf, which would make it the fifth largest shale gas field in the world, behind China, USA, Argentina and Mexico USA shale gas transformation Scale of find: USA – 840 tcf potential / South Africa – 485 tcf potential In 2000 shale gas provided only 1% of U.S. natural gas production; by 2010 it was over 20% and the U.S. government's Energy Information Administration predicts that by 2035, 46% of the United States' natural gas supply will come from shale gas Net energy importer to net energy exporter Insulation from world gas and downstream petroleum product pricing shocks Significant gas price decrease fostering huge growth in gas-supplied industries with large-scale multiplier effect (June FT headline – "Steelmakers reap benefits from US shale gas revolution") Transition from coal-fired thermal power to gas-fired thermal power (much cheaper option given fall is gas pricing) 10

ROUTE TO MARKET: MONETISING THE RESOURCES

Downstream options LNG Gas-fired power Fertilisers Gas-to-liquids Methanol / other Petrochem Natural gas for distribution Economics are different in different contexts, though LNG tends to present the highest pure economic return under current market conditions In Mozambique and Tanzania, operators are pushing for large-scale LNG projects, but query whether government will require that a portion of the discovered gas be utilised for other downstream (and onshore) activities In Botswana and South Africa, other down-stream options may be more attractive given the difficult route to market for LNG and other pressing priorities such as power and liquid fuel requirements 12

OPPORTUNITIES & CHALLENGES FOR INVESTMENT

OPPORTUNITIES FOR INVESTMENT Continuing and increasing world-wide demand for gas, particularly LNG Large and increasing regional demand for gas and gas-supplied downstream products o Power o Liquid fuels o Fertilisers o Demand for other petro-chemicals and for natural gas for direct distribution to increase Very attractive economics for recent upstream discoveries Promise of abundant gas supply in region Robust and sophisticated local capital Large-scale recent discoveries will attract offshore investors and lenders that have never invested in the region before - Export Credit Agencies, international banks, etc Upstream gas finds can be anchor supply and anchor tenants for downstream projects and associated development projects 14

CHALLENGES FOR INVESTMENT World-wide glut of recent gas discoveries Availability of long-term SPAs for LNG sales at Asian market pricing increasingly coming into question – consensus forming that the window is closing and will likely be closed by end of the decade Scale of investment required for mega projects unprecedented in the region: o Largest project financings in Africa to date: US$800 million Mozal / US$2.6 billion Egyptian Refinery Company o Mozambique LNG: US$50 billion Execution of large-scale projects incredibly challenging even in the best environments Regulatory challenges Infrastructure challenges – required associated infrastructure often poor to nonexistent Skills shortages worldwide and in region 15

IMPACT ON SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA'S ENERGY MIX Are we moving towards a gas and renewables Southern African future? Attractive combination – good base-load mix with renewables USA example of transition from coal-fired to gas-fired thermal power generation, mixing with renewables 70% Gas / 30% Renewables long-term future energy mix a real possibility given recent upstream gas finds (including Karoo Shale Gas) o Price of gas regionally should come down significantly o Upstream gas finds will drive midstream infrastructure o Gas much more efficient and much cleaner to burn than coal o Unconventional gas developments lend themselves to gas-fired power being part of their route to market Template of the South African renewables program can and is being used for a thermal-fired procurement program for gas 16

CONCLUSION – OIL & GAS AS GAME CHANGER Game changer for: o Revenue for governments in region and also South Africa o Investment in the region by private sector o Energy mix of region and regional economies o Potential to unlock power constraints o Potential to assist with meaningful infrastructure development / transport corridors 17
