Natural Gas Research Programme Net Zero Targets and GHG Emission Reduction in the UK and Norwegian Upstream Oil and Gas Industry: A Comparative Assessment Oil and the Middle East Research Programme Oil Market Recovery and the Balance of Risks Electricity Research Programme Ammonia as a storage solution for future decarbonized energy systems China Energy Research Programme The Chinese majors’ responses to the collapse in global oil prices and the COVID-19 pandemic: an upstream perspective The Oxford Institute for Energy Studies is a world leading independent energy research institute specialising in advanced research into the economics and politics of international energy across oil, gas and electricity markets. The Oil and the Middle East Research Programme of the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies was established in 2009. It is dedicated to the advanced study of contemporary oil markets, production, consumption and policy. With a historical focus on the resource-rich economies of the Middle East, research on the Programme... The Natural Gas Research Programme, launched in 2003, has become one of the foremost sources of independent academic research on natural gas. The programme focuses on natural gas within the disciplines of the Institute: economics, politics and sociology, international relations of gas-producing, consuming and transit countries, as well as the... The OIES Electricity Research Programme was established in 2015. The Programme seeks to inform public and private sector decision-making by improving understanding of the electricity supply chain. The Programme studies the role of public policy, regulation, and markets to support the energy transition, along with implications for end-users, companies and... Launched in 2019 the OIES China Energy Research Programme, is a center of analytical excellence offering insights into the factors that inform China’s energy policies and choices and their pivotal role in global energy markets. China is the world’s second largest economy, biggest importer of crude oil, the fastest growing... The recent adoption by the UK and Norway of ‘net zero’ and ‘climate neutrality’ targets by 2050 has galvanised the upstream oil and gas industry in both countries to adopt GHG emission reduction targets for 2030 and 2050 for the first time. Meeting these targets, ensuring an appropriate sharing of costs between investors and taxpayers and preserving investor confidence will... The year 2020 is pivotal for China’s upstream sector. This final year of the 13th Five Year Plan (2016–2020) is also the second year in the oil companies’ ‘Seven-Year Exploration and Production Increase Action Plans’, and the inaugural year of domestic upstream liberalization plans, all of which were designed to bolster China’s upstream development. But the ambitious development plans of... While the market is shifting its attention to OPEC+ dynamics and the return of Libyan and Iranian barrels, the reality remains that this is first and foremost a demand shock and ultimately the evolution of demand will be the key factor shaping oil market outcomes. This demand shock is special in many ways compared to previous shocks: in addition to... The year 2020 is an important year for China. President Xi Jinping, in his New Year speech in January 2020, called it a year of ‘milestone significance’ as the country was set to achieve its goal of building a ‘moderately prosperous society’—which entails doubling the size of the economy from its 2010 levels and eradicating poverty. At the same time,... In this podcast James Henderson discusses a new OIES paper on the future of the Ukrainian gas market and its interconnections with Russia and Europe with Simon Pirani. The podcast first reviews the current state of the Ukrainian gas sector following a decade of dramatic change and then assesses the outlook for further transit of Russian gas, development of the... After achieving month-on-month gains in every month between May and August, the Brent price shed some of these gains in September and October. While the main risks facing the oil market are still being dominated by demand factors, the risks on the supply side have also been on the rise. On the demand side, the recovery of oil demand has... Oxford Energy Forum - Issue 125 China's Energy Policies in the Wake of COVID-19This edition of the Oxford Energy Forum assesses some of China's energy policy choices, the trade-offs between competing priorities, and what they mean for the 14th FYP. Read OEF 125 Webinar China's energy policy in the wake of COVID-19: implications for the next Five Year Plan This document summarises the key takeaways from the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies’ webinar on China’s power, gas and oil markets in the wake of COVID-19 and ahead of the 14th Five Year Plan.The first session, on power sector reform, explored the short and medium term implications of China’s reliance on coal, its plans for and presence in renewables, and role in global climate talks, especially in light of President Xi Jinping’s 2060 carbon neutrality pledge. It discussed the role of the state in power markets and the various goals of power sector reform.The second session, on gas market liberalisation discussed the creation of China’s midstream company (PipeChina) and its implications for gas supplies, as well as the outlook for China’s gas demand, especially in the context of the country’s carbon neutrality goal. The session also explored the role of new entrants in the gas market.The final session looked at China’s evolving role in global oil markets, the shift of price discovery East, the sources of China’s pricing power in global oil markets and the outlook for oil demand as China pursues the electrification of its transport sector. Read Timetable 9:00-10:00 AM - China’s Power Sector Ambitions: one step forward, two steps back? China’s solar and wind power additions are slowing while coal power plants are being approved rapidly. How does this square with the country’s recent pledge to become carbon neutral by 2060? And how can China achieve its goals of market-oriented power sector reform without loosening the state’s grip over the sector?11:00-12:00 PM – Prospects and challenges for gas market liberalisation The launch of China’s midstream company (PipeChina) alongside ongoing efforts to open the sector to greater competition and pursue price reforms could prove transformative for China’s gas market. What are the next steps for PipeChina and what are the challenges it faces? Will this help or hinder new entrants to China’s gas sector and what are the implications for global LNG markets?14:00-15:00 - China’s evolving role in global oil marketsChina’s appetite for crude has provided a lifeline for oil markets in the wake of COVID-19, but it has also highlighted the country’s increasing pricing power globally. With crude flows shifting East, what are the implications for global benchmarks? How do state-owned companies and independent refiners exert their pricing power and will this change as China’s oil demand growth slows In this latest OIES podcast James Henderson discusses with Simon Pirani a new OIES paper on the future of the Ukrai… https://t.co/7wyJZmTYQ9 Read OIES paper on how Ammonia as a chemical storage option represent a promising solution for long-term large-scal… https://t.co/2H8RuGsDEY .@OxfordEnergy's @ManalShehabi was panellist in @IEA #WEO20 webinar on outlook for fuels.
