I thought I'd look at UK Oil Output to see if it is falling as we're being told. What I found was record investment, the highest since the 1970's and output likely to rise by 50% between now and 2018. Ssshhh - don't tell the Scots!

The following new fields were brought on stream in 2013: o BALLOCH o CORMORANT EAST o FIONN o HUNTINGTON o JASMINE o ROCHELLE o TONTO o KIMMERIDGE
A large number of new oilfields are under development and a number of other fields have temporarily shut down to enhance or renew their production facilities and will return to production soon. Oil production was 37.9 Million Tonnes in 2013. The additions under way target additional production of 42.9 Million Tonnes by 2018. It is clear that, even allowing for natural and normal reductions in flow rates as existing fields mature & decline, output will rise substantially (over 50%) by 2018. This is being hidden from the public as both DECC and the OBR forecast no increase in output over the period. This isn’t credible.
The above chart shows oil output from the UKCS in every year from 1975 onwards. It shows the effect of current investment on future production by graphing the projected output from fields which are in the process of coming online. Even allowing for natural rates of decline, the increase between 2013 and 2018 will be over 50 percent.
Wood Mackenzie has produced a very similar projection. DECC has produced one which shows no increase in output over the same period. This seems impossibly negative. The impossibly negative DECC projection is the one the OBR chose to attack Scottish Government projections. The OBR analysis is partial, it doesn’t reflect reality – its wrong.

Oil Output in the UKCS has been declining since 1999. Gas output has also dropped since it peaked in the year 2000. This perhaps explains why predictions for the next few years appear to be so gloomy. There seems to be an air of unreality greeting predictions that output will not sink further but is about to take off again. A report that Scotland was facing a boom in output was met with a storm of protest from the Glasgow-based Centre for Public Policy in the Regions (CPPR) who’s eminence gris John McLaren, a former Labour Party researcher, was quick to damn any such foolish notion: http://newsnetscotland.com/index.php/scottish-economy/7560-cpprs-mclaren-pours-cold-water-on-scottish-economic-recovery-claims http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-21936723 The Office of Budget Responsibility (OBR) has accepted the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) projections of future oil & gas output. We might sensibly start by looking at recent trends and how these are helping to shape projections of future output.
On the chart above can be seen the pattern of change in annual output over the period from 1980 to 2013. The addition of a trend line helps to give some perspective. Apart from a small blip in 2007 we have seen twelve years of declining output to a greater or lesser extent. Over the last three years the decline has been at a more rapid rate than in the past, although the rate of decline is slowing and is predicted to decline still further in 2014 with the position for the following few years looking likely to show increases in output for the first time since 2007. DECC show no positive increment in output from the record levels of capital spend seen on the UKCS over the last few years. They are predicting that the decline in underlying output will continue at an increased and increasing rate rather than showing the anticipated decline. They also appear to suggest that the output from new fields and from major re-developments will be negligible rather than transformational. It is not clear what underlying basis there is for these assumptions. We’re told basically that “we’ve been right in the past, so trust us, we’ll be right in the future”.

For me, what we have to look at is whether the decline in recent years has been part of the long-term natural rate of decline or if the industry has suffered from events which have exaggerated the decline in output. What we can see for oil is that most of the post-peak years have registered a decline in output of between 5% and 10% with three of the last four years showing figures in excess of this. There have been: 2011 Calendar Year Some excessive rates of depletion in certain fields such as Callanish, Clair and Schiehallion plus a major production problem in the Buzzard Field costing 2,000,000 Tonnes of lost production. 2012 Calendar Year Further excessive depletion from Callanish and Clair with the Elgin/Franklin debacle costing 2,000,000 Tonnes of lost production. A leak in a pipeline also caused the shut-in of the Foinaven field. 2013 Calendar Year The suspension of Schiehallion on its own accounted for almost half of the total reduction in the whole year (45.6%). Clair, Claymore, Magnus, Pierce and Don SW also contributed markedly to the decline in output. What has been the position with gas output?
2011 Calendar Year This year saw a big drop in output from the Rough Storage Facility which can skew the gas output number considerably on its own. Morecambe South, Goldeneye, Rhum, Brodger and Brent were all major movers over the period with Bruce, Andrew and Britannia all adding to the decline. Rhum’s output fell for political reasons. It was shut-in because it was half-owned by the national Iranian Oil Corporation. Morecambe South output fell as Centrica felt the price earned was not high enough. Goldeneye shut down with a view to a future role as a CCS site. Brent also fell due to depletion as did Andrew which is being re-developed.

2012 Calendar Year The big story, as for oil, was the outage at Elgin/Franklin. This accounted for almost half the total decline in gas from the UKCS in the year. 2012 Calendar Year This year problems at Sean and Pierce accounted for over 70% of the drop. Conclusions The situation for oil output seems to be much more to do with outages than with declines in production due to reservoir depletion. Output has been falling but the root cause for many of these drops has been work to restore and indeed to improve levels of output. Restoration of output from Schiehallion, Clair, Elgin & Franklin in the coming years will paint a very different picture. Output from Buzzard seems impossible to predict and this remains a significant cause for concern. Gas output is more of a mixed bag. There will be big increases in output from Elgin, Franklin and Rhum but the output from Rough Storage is very difficult to predict and indeed it might be better to factor this out of the equation.

If we start off from the 2013 level of oil output and subtract an annualised rate of decline of 10% per field (slightly higher than the actual rate excluding shut-downs for planned and unplanned outages) and we then add the predicted levels of additional output from new fields (factoring in a higher average rate of decline of 15% for these fields) then we can see that output in 2017 will be over 50% higher than it was in 2013.

Oil & gas UK’s 2013 Economic Report predicts a rise of over 40% in output by 2017. They looked at oil & gas together & gave figures of approx 1.4MM boepd in 2013 rising to 2.0MM Boepd in 2017 in their “Best Case” scenario. Under their “Worst Case” the rise would be from 1.2MM Boepd to 1.6MM Boepd, an increase of 33.3%. To get to this position the decline rate from existing fields has to be much higher than it has been historically. As output from new fields is added between 2015 and 2017 the factor for declining production in existing fields has to climb from 10% to over 20% by 2017 – the figure of 9,309 shown in the table. This seems very unlikely to me but it reflects the considerable caution shown by Oil & Gas UK in predicting future output. In comparison to DECC however their prediction is positively sunny.

DECC predict a flat line in their “UKCS Oil and Gas Production Projection” March 2014 page 1. This is ludicrous and requires the decline in output from existing fields to increase from a normal rate of perhaps 10% to as high as 24% in 2015 and 2016 and to over 40% in 2017. This isn’t conceivable or possible. In later years the opposite is the case. The natural rate of decline has to fall to 1.00 per cent for the DECC flatline to be validated, this is far too low a rate. This prediction cannot be based on the projects coming into production over the next few years. It is not possible that all these fields can start producing and for oil output not to increase.

Predictions for oil are easily found on company websites and from industry sources. For gas the picture is much less clear. Many new fields give no figure for likely gas production. An accurate forecast therefore isn’t really possible for gas from public information sources.
Overall Conclusion We cannot accurately predict gas output as few companies issue associated gas production projections. Available figures are therefore likely to understate future gas output. With regard to oil output the position is much clearer. What isn’t clear is how DECC have alighted on their current flatline production forecast which seems to be totally at odds with the predictions of the companies completing the investments. The companies’ collective - Oil & Gas UK -expects oil output to rise by at least 33% and possibly by as much as 42.5% see fig 10 p 21, Oil & Gas UK “Economic Report 2013”. DECC are predicting no increase whatsoever. The OBR has based its forecast on the DECC numbers which seem detached from reality. The figures for 2015-17 are particularly misleading. The massive rise in oil output which will take place has been reduced to zero by DECC. This requires a drop in 2017 output from existing fields of over 40% in that one year. How DECC’s model has been changed to fabricate this result must be examined without delay. The “discount factor” they have applied to company output predictions must have been dramatically increased to give this result. Why has this been done and on who’s authority? I look forward to finding out...but I won’t be holding my breath!
