By wojciech kosc

Longing for

the Ukrainian Steppe


Poland would love to associate shale with the patriotic
underpinning of energy independence, but has failed to
deliver. Ukraine might be on course to make it happen.
Ukraine is a country straddling East and
West. Its energy infrastructure is inextricably
tied to Russia, and Kiev is regularly in trouble
with Moscow over gas transit to Western Europe.
An anecdote from the Polish ministry of foreign affairs has it that diplomats at work in
Ukraine would be dismissed if they expressed
any sentimentalism for the parts of Ukraine that
once belonged to Poland. This would be bad for
the mutual relationship and Polands ambitions
to attract Ukraine closer to the European Union.
What Ukraine has is theirs to have.
The arrest of Yulia Tymoshenko, the former
prime minister, over alleged
shenanigans in gas deals,
has soured the countrys
relationships with the European Union. Former Polish president Aleksander
Kwaniewski is on a mission
in Ukraine to help solve the
Timoshenko controversy:
get her out of jail to an EU
hospital in return for fasttracking the process of integration of Ukraine
with the European Union, of which Poland is
Ukraines most vocal ally.
Its ironic that Tymoshenkos release is being
championed by the EU, who seems to desire
closer Ukrainian integration, given Tymoshenko was jailed for allegedly doing the opposite:
moving the country closer to Russia through
gas deals.

The Ukrainian
president wants
the country self
sufficient for
gas and maybe
an exporter.

8 | Shale Gas Investment guide | Winter 2013

Since she was jailed, Ukraine has decided to


go ahead and sign a trade and political association agreement with the EU. And two recent
energy deals go right to the core of the difficult
relationships of Ukraine and Russia, with shale
gas in the center.
The decision to sign the agreement with the
EU didnt go down well with the Kremlin, which
waged a sort of a war with Ukraine, banning
Ukrainian products and intensifying border
controls, adding that Ukraine may face a financial catastrophe if the agreement goes ahead.
On top of getting closer with the EU, the
Ukrainian government in 2013 signed two energy deals - reported to be worth USD 10 billion
each - for unconventional hydrocarbon exploration with majors Royal Dutch Shell and Chevron. The Ukrainian president publicly expressed
hope that once and if shale gas does from Ukrainian deposits - estimated to hold close to three
trillion cubic meters of gas, one of the largest
potentials in Europe - Ukraine will be self sufficient for gas and maybe even an exporter.
Polish diplomats in Kiev have surely been
reporting to Warsaw about these recent developments. As situation in Ukraine is unfolding
much to the favor of Polands geopolitical strategy of pulling Kiev to the West in the tug-of-war
with Russia, the irony is that it owes in part to
Ukraines decision to bet on shale gas, something
that Poland seems to have been negligent, despite
the energy independence rhetoric of just a few
years ago.

Dear Colleague,
In 2013, Ukraine jumped onto the shale map. Two events of significance
happened:

PHOTOGRAPHY

Early in 2013, Royal Dutch Shell signed a deal that comprised nearly 8,000
square kilometers in the east - the Yuzivska field. Then in the first week of
November, Kiev signed a $10 billion production-sharing agreement with
Chevron. The plan aims for exploration and production from the Olesska
field in the west of Ukraine, an area that comprises some 6,300 square
kilometers.

Published by

As the Financial Times reported, the 2004 Orange Revolution, which briefly
installed a pro-western government, did not then open doors to foreign
owned oil companies. But the current president, Viktor Yanukovych, has
turned to foreign owned oil companies to provide the muscle and
know-how to commercialize unconventionals, and offshore resources as
well, via an ExxonMobil led consortium.

Poland, on the other hand, has managed to shun foreign investors and has
yet to see a state owned company in Poland in joint venture with a foreign
owned operator. Ukraine seems quite willing to let anyone to the table.
Provided they play by the governments rules.

large financial expenditure needs, political


risk and legislative instability, companies
are finding it hard to engage in massive
unconventional exploration programs.
The European Commission has been at
work on a report concerning hydraulic
fracturing and its environmental impact.
Some countries still have moratoria imposed (FR, BG, CZ, LX), while others are
either waiting for special reports (IE, NL)
or have regional bans (North RhineWestphalia in Germany, Cantabria in
Spain). Italy and Finland are not interested in exploring shale, while Austria and
Denmark imposed such strict environmental regulations that made operating
there practically impossible. Germany will
wait on legislative initiatives until the fall
elections, also putting a halt on exploration
activities. Real development is only taking
place in Poland with 51 wells drilled to
date and the UK, where the recent BGS
and DECC report, The Carboniferous
Bowland Shale Gas Study estimates that
there are as many as 23.3 - 64.6 tcm of
resource in place.

A separate issue is how Poland could


use the potentially large amounts of gas
from shale into use.
Gas-based power has only been coming
online quite recently in Poland (mostly
within the last decade) and, to date, less
than 10 percent of the power in Poland is
generated from natural gas.
There are plans, however, to increase the
use of the resource are already written into
the countrys energy strategy. As many as
18 new gas-fired power plants are undergoing permitting procedures or are under
construction now.
Currently there is 934 MWe (electric)
of installed gas-fired power capacity, primarily owned by Polands gas utility PGNiG. Before these new capacity goes online, economics of generating energy from
gas will have to be looked into. The biggest
obstacle with using gas as a nominal
power source is its price (see chart on top
of this page).
With planned new power and the need
to liberalize the gas market, much investment will be needed in Polands gas transmission and distribution systems. GazSystem, the countrys gas transmission
system operator, has planned for the construction of 1,000 kilometers of new
transmission pipelines between 2014 and
2018, at a cost of roughly PLN 5 billion
(USD 1.6 billion), as well as looking into
building infrastructure to connect with
Slovaka and the Czech Republic.
Gaz-System is also completing its
winoujcie LNG terminal project by the
Baltic sea. While the investment is said to
cost approximately 2.7 billion PLN, there
exists little doubt that it is necessary. Upon
completion, the terminal will be able to
supply 5 billion m3 of gas per year with a
possible increase to 7.5 billion m3 in the
future. That would mean annual gas consumptions increase by 50 percent.

 The spread between WTI and Brent has narrowed as demand for US domestic
oil increased over the last quarter. The EIA reports that recently improved pipeline
networks and crude-by-rail links facilitated direct delivery from production areas
to refining centers, which helped move the shale-related oil glut.

 New estimates from the Polish Geological Institute are expected earliest in

 Poland is under pressure to install new


power generation capacity. By 2016 there
might be a 1-2 GW shortfall in nominal
power. As old power plants need to be renovated or shut down (up to 6,6 GW by
2020), replacing them will be crucial. Without cheap gas and RES support Poland will
need to import more energy in the near future from neighbouring countries.

The liberalization of Polish


gas should lead to the de-monopolization of the market and emergence of
many, alternative to PGNiG, gas suppliers. Operators will have much more
flexibility in terms of choosing a buyer
and negotiating contract terms. Market
based futures contracts, as an essential
element of risk management, will allow
for securing long term market positions.
The creation of a liquid wholesale market along with the ability to trade on the
commodities exchange are main elements of transparency and competitiveness, which upstream investors will
surely appreciate. Increased domestic
extraction is a priority for the Polish
economy, which is why, along with
exploration investments in new plays,
competitive market mechanisms need
to be developed in the gas sector. This
would link new gas producers to existing domestic consumers, who are awaiting market-based gas prices.
A liquid wholesale market should in
a short period of time lead to the correlation of Polish gas prices to those
observed at European gas hubs (Gaspool, NCG, TTF, NBP).

Polands shale gas market becomes positively

sustained and unassisted flow of gas from ebie LE2H horizontal well on their Lbork concession.

I spent 20 million and all I got was this flame?

The well started to flow Ordovician shale gas without


assistance in mid-July. The initial flow rate was about
11.3 thousand cubic meters per day dropping to 8.5
thousand cubic meters per day later in July.
3 Legs chief executive Kamlesh Parmar said that the
company was obtaining valuable data from this test,
which would help to understand commercial potential
of Ordovician shales in the companys acreage. 3Legs
Resources is proceeding with testing on Strzeszewo,
including the first test of Strzeszewo LE-1 vertical well,
where the company had been unable to flow substantial gas volumes. 3Legs Resources seeks to monetise
its assets in eastern Baltic Basin.

time that I heard about this job
opportunity with BakerCorp.
What is your position and what are
your responsibilities at BakerCorp?
As the Branch Manager I am in charge
of running BakerCorps operations in
Poland. I set performance guidelines
and maintain our Quality Management
and Health & Safety standards. I am in
charge of training employees as well as
staying connected to vendors. But my
main focus is to deliver the best rental

51 wells drilled to date. The geological
character of the shale requires around
300 wells to be drilled to evaluate

potential. Polands commercial
potential depends on the evaluation of
core samples and reser voir
characteristics and we need regulatory
stability. BakerCorp has been involved

Ecstasy
to Agony
Exploration has slowed across the EU-27, in part
because of technical challenges in the shale
formations, and in part because fracktivists use
shale to wage geo-political wars.
By W o j c i e c h Ko a n d Pa r k e r S nyd e r

Polish shale might not be


dead yet, but its attached to a
breathing machine and the doctors
are debating whether or not to pull the
plug.
What little activity is taking place Conoco will spud and frack, Orlen
continues to frack - is a trickle of a
stream in the place of what was a raging
river. No one, and we mean no one, in
London or New York is considering
funding exploration, and for good
reason.
According to several geologists and
consultants who are at work in Polish
shales, the shale is rather a tight gas
which is high in clay, posing technical
challenges, and thwarting the efforts of
stimulation programs based on water
fluids. The only frack to date worth

what it cost its operator was 3 Legs


ebien LE-2H well, which flowed at 2
million mcf per day aided by nitrogen
but fizzled after just 24 hours.
The exploration activities that followed in the Baltic basin were a series
of partly failed attempts, hampered by
the demands of bureaucrats who require legions of documentation to
make minor changes. Marathon, Talisman and Exxon called it quits. The Italy based ENI is pulling out. Officially,
the only two IOCs who remain are
Chevron and ConocoPhillips, both of
whom state publicly they are committed to exploring the basin. But in private conversations with individuals
who are familiar with their plans, even
these two companies are considering
changes.

ISTOCK

WHAT WENT WRONG?


In general, a brash western optimism
was easily stymied by Polish reality. The
shales arent good, at least not that
good, and there are numerous practical
challenges to operating in Poland. For
instance, the data archive consisting of
more than 700 wells, some drilled by
the Russians, remains inaccessible to
those who want to take a close look.
The application procedure is cumbersome. And the legal right to commercialization is murky. Well records have
been scanned and returned to dusty
shelves so many times the paper is
wearing thin. Yet, theres no central
effort to digitize the data archive.
Further complicating the matter is
the perception that the government is
out to take pieces of a pie that hasnt
even been baked. The proposed royalty and fiscal regime seems favorable
compared to other countries: 20% royalties, 19% income taxes, and a statesponsored participation capped at 5%.
But operators still continue to voice
opposition to the proposal. At a recent
OPPPW meeting in Gdask, deputy
geologist Piotr Woniak maintained
that everything was moving along
nicely, while operators in attendance
were privately fuming that the circus
act was falling apart. In previous meetings, minister Woniak has hinted at
what PiS promised to their constituents
at a north Baltic well site: we will get
those concessions back.
Foreign operators, investors and
country manager who earlier took a
positive view of the Poland shale basin
have left. John Buggenhagen, operations director for San Leon Energy who
was one of the first to move to Poland,

largest in Europe.

to frackings leftovers. This is a sheer


baloney, and we are set to strike it
down, Algirdas Salamakinas, a Social
Democrat legislator and the initiator
of the Constitutional Court appeal,
Natural Gas Europe reported in November.
In Romania, fracking is a contentious
issue as well. Chevron decided to give
up exploration in Vaslui County in
aftermath of local protests. Its continuing with exploration elsewhere, amidst
uncertain regulatory and political environment.
According to the Romanian ministry
of environment, extracting gas from
shales is potentially beneficial for a
country thats heavily dependent on
imports, but on the other hand, the
ministry said in November, it has to be
carried out with the utmost attention
to environmental standards, a rhetoric
that many in the shale gas industry take
as a diplomatic no to development.
UK
Apart from Ukraine, the only other
country where activity is under way is
the United Kingdom. The shale gas
industry is still riding the high waves
created by June estimate of the British
Geological Survey that put shale gas
reserves of they key shale gas play in
central Britain at 1,329 trillion cubic
feet (over 37 trillion cubic meters).
The estimates, along with governments favorable approach to the industry via a proposal for tax breaks unveiled in early 2013, have been attracting deals. In late October, for example,
Frances GDF Suez invested USD39
million for a 25 percent interest in 13
licences in Cheshire and the East Midlands. The agreement includes a $12
million cash payment to Australias

PHOTOGENICA

In January 2013, Ukraine signed a


similar deal, also worth an estimated
USD 10 billion with Royal Dutch Shell,
concerning shale gas play in eastern
part of the country.
If ever produced, Ukrainian shale gas
is expected to bring the country a complete self-sufficiency for gas and, perhaps, even a gas exporter. Such development has geo-political weight as
currently Ukraine depends on Russian
gas mostly.
The deals with Chevron and Royal
Dutch Shell make Ukraine one of the
few European countries to be pressing
ahead with significant shale gas development, which has been held up elsewhere by environmental concerns over
the hydraulic fracking used to produce
the fuel, the Financial Times reported.
Elsewhere, shale gas development is
being hindered, if not stopped outright.
For example, in Lithuania, the development is in limbo after Chevron resigned
from activity in the country, citing challenges of regulatory and legislative
nature. Chevron quit its shale gas exploration bid for the 1800 square km
Silute-Taurage tract in south-western
Lithuania. The Lithuanian government
is working on a new bid offer at the
moment, which is expected in early
2014.
The Lithuanian parliament, however,
has lodged a motion to the Constitutional Tribunal to look whether allowing radioactive residues that fracking
could leave behind underground is in
line with the Lithuanian Constitution.
Lithuanian Constitution clearly
states that polluting environment and
earths depths is prohibited. According
to the law amendments that the Lithuanian parliament has recently passed,
burying chemical, radioactive and
other toxic materials in the depths is
banned, but the law makes an exception

praisal program up to $27 million.


There are problems, too, that the
nascent shale gas industry is facing. A
widely reported anti-fracking protest
on the site in the village of Balcombe
made the industry realize that the environment for shale gas development
in Britain may be as hostile as elsewhere in Europe.
Its also estimated that production of
shale gas could create fewer jobs than
the government previously projected:
just 24,000 jobs against the Prime Ministers David Camerons figure of 74,000
that he cited in August. Finally, a report

operations

from Bloomberg New Energy Finance


put the production cost of shale gas in
Britain at twice the US cost. On the
positive note, the report said, shale gas
could offset declining production of
gas from the North Sea fields.
EU 27
How are things in the rest of the EU-27?
Take a look at our complete listing of all
unconventional oil and gas concession
holders which begins on page 100.
In total across the EU-27, 101 exploration wells for unconventional oil and
gas have been drilled. GDF Suez farmed

into UK acreage, hoping to get a jumpstart on other utilities who would like
to book shale reserves on their balance
sheet. Coal bed methane exploration
proceeds in Germany. Tight gas exploration continues in Hungary.
In general, shale exploration is slow
and likely to go slower. Protests across
Europe have emerged as the dominant
force threatening to derail the train
completely. In contrast to North America, where protests tend to be vitriolic
but manageable because industry appears more willing to engage the public, the passions unleashed throughout

Europe tend to be of a more primal,


nationalistic character.
Although hydraulic stimulation has
been around since the end of World
War II, fracking has emerged in Europe
as a red-hot target for activists who
wish to push a geo-political agenda. Its
too bad, because as fracking gets all the
bad press, there are immediate concerns that go unaddressed (noise, emissions and on-site safety), which distracts from the more important question: what role can shale gas play in
Polands transition to a low carbon
economy?

Europe

and its Shales


The shale gas revolution in the US encouraged a few European countries
to follow suit. However, the reality in Europe showed it may not be so easy.
Some countries that are keen to produce shale gas are struggling to attract
foreign investors. Others are struggling to keep them.
G r z e g o r z K u , Att o r n e y a n d M a r e k K i l i a n , C o n su l t a n t , P wC

The European shale gas


revolution may not proceed as fast
as investors might like, as the authorities of the European Union consider increasing environmental duties
for shale gas exploration and instituting
a mandatory environmental impact
assessment.
On the other hand, some national
governments see a great potential and
an inspiring opportunity in shale gas.
It seems the countries most likely to
become the leader of the European
shale gas exploration are Poland, the
United Kingdom, Ukraine and Turkey.
The question is which country is the
most likely to become the leader of a
shale gas revolution in Europe?
NO CARROTS, NO RABBITS
US experience shows that incentives
from government are crucial for the
development of the shale gas industry.
There are two main reasons determining the importance of a governments
support. The first reason is the high
capital requirements of shale gas activities compared to conventional
natural gas resources. The second reason is a willingness to limit what is a
32 | Shale Gas Investment guide | Winter 2013

higher risk of failure in exploration.


For example, if an investor decides
to withdraw from further activities due
to failure to find commercial deposits,
the investor does not have many possibilities to recover from losses, due to
a lack of saleable assets. In this light,
the role of a cooperating national government should be to help (via relevant
legislation) the investor reduce his
expenditures (i.e. related to various tax
and fees) and to allow the investor to
utilize incurred costs for tax purposes.
SIGN: NOT WELCOME
With respect to Poland, the legislative
process for a new shale gas taxation is
pending. The Polish government aims
to secure the interest of the treasury
levying what are perceived as high
taxes and fees, which have been criticized by the shale gas industry for failing to introduce reasonable incentives
or tax allowances. However, suspension
of new taxes until 2020 may be seen as
a kind of incentive as the taxation
level in the period from 2013 to 2019
will be relatively low (basically 19% of
corporate income).
Another country aiming at attracting

shale gas investors is Ukraine. Recently a state-owned Ukrainian company signed a 10 billion dollar gas deal
with Chevron. The Ukrainian example
shows that dialogue with investors is
more attractive than proceeding right
away with significant changes to industry regulations.
SIGN: YOU BELONG
Elsewhere across Europe, we see a decrease in the taxation level for shale gas
which was announced by the British
government, which has been taken as
a positive sign for investors. Plans announced in July could provide a reduction in taxes on shale gas revenue from
62% to 30%. The Chancellor of the
Exchequer George Osborne said: We
want to create the right conditions for
industry to explore and unlock that
potential in a way that allows communities to share in the benefits. I want
Britain to be a leader of the shale gas
revolution because it has the potential
to create thousands of jobs and keep
energy bills low for millions of people.

into force in June 2013. The new law

The Ukrainian example shows that dialogue with investors


is more attractive than proceeding right away with
significant changes to industry regulations
tions including a set of tax incentives:
reducing the ceiling for income tax
from 55 per cent to 40 per cent and
provision of exemptions for companies
from customs tax, certain levies and
stamp duty for equipment. It is worth
mentioning that a formal cooperation
agreement between state owned Turkiye Petrolleri A.O. and Shell was
signed in February 2013 and two Canadian-based companies are exploring
shale gas in the Dyiarbakir area. Turkey

seems to be an example of how a country can combine regulation with an


environment thats friendly to investors.
THE WAY IT IS
It seems that the United Kingdom is
most determined. On the other hand,
Ukraine and Turkey seem able to draw
investors not in contrast to the UK
by the reward of a benign tax regime,
but through gaining the trust of foreign
operators.

Despite the most number of wells


drilled to date in Europe, Poland just
two years ago seen by many as the country most likely to develop shale seems
a full step behind. Other countries are
racing to attract foreign investors: Poland
seems interested in keeping them at bay.
Based on Polands experience: theres
a lesson to be learned for any country
interested in extracting shale gas: introduce simple incentives and reward
explorers by mitigating risk.

GEOLOGY

USD 1 Billion
versus
the Rocks

The recent history of unconventional oil and gas exploration in Poland began in 2005, when
the first American companies entered
the country, lured in by promising
estimates of unconventional hydrocarbon reserves from the US Energy Information Administration.
It did not take long for the industry
to concentrate in Poland on the Lower
Paleozoic shale at the East European
Craton spread from northern to southeastern Poland. The US experience in
exploitation of shale reservoirs from
the first decade of the 21st century soon
whetted the appetites of Polish explorers as well.
Several major companies entered the
country, amid strong supportive political rhetoric from the government,
and reports indicating the presence of
considerable shale gas resources in
34 | Shale Gas Investment guide | Winter 2013

Even if drilling in Poland isnt up to speed at all, data from new


wells has delivered a wealth of new information about the
geology of unconventionals. Heres the basic conclusion: its
not as good as many dreamed a few years ago.
By Paw e P o p r awa

Poland that worked in unison to create


high expectations. Between 2007 and
2011 Poland saw a tremendous rush
for concessions, hardly seen anywhere
else in Europe in the last decades.
AFTER THE RUSH
A few years into shale gas exploration
in Poland, we have a better knowledge
about the Lower Paleozoic reservoir.
Since the first well, drilled in June 2010,
some 50 exploration wells have been,
or are under way, prospecting for gas
from shales (see chart).

Comparing this with no more than


40 historical wells in the reservoir in
question, mainly from 1960s and 1970s,
and coming short in terms of the quality of data, this most recent activity has
already brought about a breakthrough
in our understanding of the Lower
Paleozoic reservoir.
However, it still does not mean a
proper understanding in terms of oil
and gas quality of the reservoir and its
commercial potential, since the majority of these wells are vertical ones and
virtually no fracturing has taken place.

One of the main exploration risk factors is

reservoir. In the central Baltic Basin,


Podlasie Depression and north west
Lublin region, this was the Lower
Llandovery bituminous. Finally, in the
south east Lublin region near the border with Ukraine, it was the Wenlock
shale that was regarded as the main
component of potential reservoir.

Companies were able to carry out


multi-stage fracturing without significant technical problems and with
proper production tests on only two
wells: ebie LE-2H, operated by
ConocoPhillips/3Legs Resources and
Syczyn OU-2K, operated by Orlen
Upstream.
The starting point for exploration,
based on historical geological data, was
ridden with a broad spectrum of uncertainties, partly related to complete
lack of some key information about the
reservoir, such as porosity, permeability, mineralogy, gas/oil saturation, or
pressure.
Now its clear that the Lower Paleozoic shale is not a uniform reservoir. In
the Pomerania region to the west of
Gdask, the Upper Ordovician and the
Upper Cambrian to Lower Tremadocian shale was regarded as the main

WINDOWS OF OPPORTUNITY?
Results from the new 50 exploration
wells have not changed the picture of
the reservoir in principle, however they
helped to detail the availability of oil
and gas in specific locations. For example, the Upper Cambrian Alum
shale is getting more attention in the
NW Baltic Basin, while the Lower
Llandovery shale appeared surprisingly rich in total organic content
(TOC) in some locations in the Eastern
Baltic Basin, and additionally the Caradoc shale proven to be an interesting
target in NW Lublin Basin and Western
Podlasie Depression.
Distribution of thermal maturity in
the basin, as well as presence of hydrocarbon shows in the Lower Paleozoic
section defined individual zones in the
basin with shale being either immature,
within oil window, liquids window, dry
gas window or even over-mature. This
distribution remains confirmed by new
well data.
A very important outcome of new
wells drilled is the confirmation of the
presence of gas and/or oil saturation of
shale reservoir in nearly every well,
allowing to sustain high expectations
as for the basins potential, which previously was not obvious. In the Eastern
Baltic Basin, central Podlasie Depres-

sion and Eastern Lublin region the


shale appears to be oil saturated and
recently some operators, like Wisent
Oil&Gas, concentrate on shale/tight oil
exploration.
The now well documented broad
zone of the liquids window, crossing
the basin from the north west to the
south east and the west of oil saturated
zone, even further differentiates hydrocarbon products available for production for the Lower Paleozoic shale.
However, the experience from thus far
performed vertical and lateral well
fracturing indicates that production of
oil and liquids from that reservoir
might be particularly difficult due to
commonly very low permeability of the
shale. Nonetheless, the currently attractive market for condensates, NGL and
oil will certainly still keep the industry
interested in those parts of the basin.
Further west, dry gas is documented
in the basins by new wells, which appears in a broad zone particularly in
the Western Baltic Basin. Unfortunately, high burial depth there increases drilling costs. Nonetheless, an interesting observation claimed by BNK
Petroleum is the possible local presence
of gas overpressures, which might allow
for higher rates of gas production, potentially compensating for the high
drilling cost.
The historical geological data from
the very beginning indicated also that
one of the main exploration risk factors
in the basin is relatively low average
TOC contents of the shale reservoir.
After 50 new wells, the understanding
of the TOC distribution is far more
detailed, but the concern still re-

mains. It appears that in some parts of


the basin a net pay thickness of shale
with high enough TOC is low as for US
and Canadian standards. Identification
of the areas with higher net pay of reservoir is currently of crucial importance for the localization of potential
sweet spots.
UNDERSTAND FRACS
EFFICIENCY
The new data obtained from laboratory core analysis indicates, unsurprisingly, the high significance of shale
mineralogy and geomechanical properties for understanding fracturing efficiency. The Lower Paleozoic shale appeared to be highly variable with this
36 | Shale Gas Investment guide | Winter 2013

respect. In some zones, siliceous shale


was documented (for example the
Caradoc in the eba Elevation), while
brittleness of Silurian shale is commonly based also on relatively high
carbonate contents, apart of silica. The
Eastern, thermally less mature parts of
the basin, are usually characterized by
low silica contents, as well as high clay
and carbonate contents, which creates
some challenges for effective fracturing
and might results with suppressed gas
and/or oil flows.
Among new results of exploration
completed so far, gas/liquids flow rates
from multi-fracturing of lateral wells
play a fundamental role in understanding of the basins potential. Commonly

obtained low flow rates are the first


significant geological concern in the
development of the shale gas project in
Poland. The two proper production
tests from lateral wells in ebien and
Syczyn are rather disappointing: 11 to
8 Mcm/d in the well located the eba
Elevation means production is not
commercial under current economic
conditions.
Vertical well fracturing, even if less
informative, has also lead to performance much poorer than in the case
of comparable fracturing in the best
US shale reservoirs, owing to low net
pay thickness, shale mineralogy, as well
as low permeability of both shale matrix and natural fracture grid.

COOLED DOWN
Some of new exploration data obtained
so far by the industry cooled the Polish
shale rush. However it is important to
take into account that in many US and
Canadian basins initial results were
below expectations as well. With two
lateral wells properly fractured we are
only on the very beginning of the learning curve. The core of the Barnett, the
acreage of which is an equivalent to
some 1.5 to 2 Polish concession blocks,
still could be theoretically located between existing new wells. Based on the
first exploration results, however, we
might expect significant lateral variety
in reservoir quality and productivity,
and thus in some less attractive parts
of the basin activity will presumably
soon decay.
It clearly takes patience and money
to complete exploration in a basin as
big as in Poland. To complete just the

Completion of the

with one lateral

of 100 concession
blocks, would
require investment
of USD1 billion
exploration phase, having at least one
lateral well tested per each of roughly
100 concession blocks, would require
cumulative investment higher than one
billion US dollars, which has to be
imagined against geological risk.
Having more difficult shale reservoirs
than initially anticipated, the role of

regulatory and fiscal regime becomes


more important. For that reason, due
to the withdrawal of a few operators
from Poland, some decrease of exploration activity of majors and independents is evident, as they wait for the
final shape of a new Geological and
Mining Law.
Only government controlled Polish
operators accelerated their drilling in
2013 their rate of drilling (see chart).
The final shape of the currently discussed new regulations will have a
significant impact on the way where
the one billion US dollars will go: to
drill more wells, or elsewhere away
from Poland.

EN V IRON M EN T AL REG U LA T ION S

Collision

Course
While Poland is going to lengths to relax the procedures
for environmental impact assessment of shale gas
projects, the European Commission is working on a
proposal to do exactly the opposite.
B y W OJCIECH K O

Foreign shale gas operators


have made it a habit to criticize the
effect Polands regulations are having on their exploration programs.
They allege the red tape in combination
with an unclear regulatory and taxation
regime is prohibitive for shale operations. The tax is expected to be too big
a weight on future revenue, and the
proposed state owned operator, NOKE,
doesnt sit well with foreign owned oil
and gas companies.
But if theres anything that shale gas
explorers in Poland are pleased about
in terms of regulatory regime, its the
relaxed procedure for environmental
impact assessment (EIA). In short, the
EIA is mandatory if a project is listed
on the governments list of projects that
always have a significant impact on the
environment. The EIA might be made
mandatory if a project is judged to have
such an impact by a regional authority.
The distinction is made on the basis
of the European Commissions direc38 | Shale Gas Investment guide | Winter 2013

tive on EIAs, which is currently undergoing a revision process in the European Union law making bodies, the
European Parliament and the Commission itself.
SIMPLE BUT SIGNIFICANT
The EUs proposal is simple but, if
enters into force, will have a significant
bearing on shale operations in Poland.
In short, it will move all shale gas projects, regardless if theyre exploration,
evaluation or production to the category of projects where an EIA procedure will be mandatory.
By contrast, the change in the Polish
EIA law, which took place in July 2013,
to foster the development of shale gas
in Poland, stated that exploratory wells
drilled to a depth of no more than
5,000 metres will not require impact
assessments. Until now the maximum
depth was 1,000 metres, which put all
exploratory wells under the EIA regime. The 5,000-meter cap will do the

opposite - exempt a great majority of


them.
The EIA will be mandatory in the
case of wells drilled in sensitive areas,
for example those that are closer than
500 metres from housing.
Contrary to what the industry has to
say about brewing changes to taxation
and concession regimes, the EIA law
update was welcome. The changes currently proposed by the EU, however,
might have the industry either speed
up exploration or give up on Poland
altogether. Speeding operations have
not yet taken place, allowing speculation that the new EIA rules, to which
Poland will have to conform eventually, may spell the end of Polands brief
affair with shale gas.
A PROPOSAL TOO FAR
According to the Polish ministry of
environment, which is in charge of
transposing and implementing EIA
regulations, the EU is proposing goes

ISTOCK

Environment

much too far. According to the ministry, the EU is aiming to put bigger
environmental restrictions on unconventional gas than on conventionals,
while the exploratory stage in either
case is similar.
The EU proposal is in line with the
general trend in Europe that has had
shale gas projects slow down or stop
altogether in a number of countries,
mostly due to national law making
bodies and citizens concern about the
environmental impact of shale gas
operations.
In Lithuania, for example, a group of
MPs has motioned for the Constitu-

tional Court to decide whether leaving


residues from fracking underground
was legal. In Romania, a local government banned operations to find itself
in court with a regional administration.
In France, theres a blanket ban on
fracking and one is likely on the cards
from the newly elected German government.
Poland, however, is standing firmly
on the position that a successful take
off of shale gas production, which the
deputy ministry of environment Piotr
Woniak said would happen in 2016,
is necessary for the Polish economy.
This would be for a number of reasons,

The changes currently proposed by the EU


might have the industry either speed up
exploration or give up on Poland altogether.

according to Mr. Woniak including a


bigger energy security in a country
largely relying on gas import from Russia, or as a means to move the entire
energy sector away from a near complete dependence on coal. For geopolitical and commercial reasons, Poland
has much to gain from a less strict
interpretation of the EIA.
Apart from a stricter EIA regime, the
new version of the EIA directive currently in the work in the Commission,
aims at strengthening the role of the
public in the decision-making process.
According to law firm SSW, members
of the public would be entitled for a
legal challenge of a shale gas project
within three months after all other
permitting has been completed. As a
consequence, projects would not kick
off until a certain times has passed for
the public to state their opinion.
Whether or not the stricter interpretation of the EIA will slow up exploration in Poland remains to be seen.

law only one entity may be a concession holder. This is why especially in cases of JVs, dedicated holding companies are formed. We list companies as having stake
in those dedicated holding companies rather than concessions themselves. Holding companies in Poland are typically limited liability companies (sp. z o.o.)

comment: The drilling of the first well in the Grabowiec concession was completed in March 2012, followed by a diagnostic
fracture integrity test conducted in December 2012. As of early 2013, the results of the well are under evaluation. A first well was
also drilled in the Frampol concession during 2012. Drilling of a well in the Zwierzyniec concession commenced in December 2012.

could work. Weve got one horizontal drilling, were learning things about how to optimize the completion, weve got more drilling

comment: The only activity planned in 2013 on Chem concession is the P&A of well Krupe -1. The process of ExxonMobil
withdrawal from Chem concession is not effective yet. There is therefore no change in the current partnership.

comment: The Babiak No.1 well has been designed to be drilled to a TD of 2,400 metres and it is planned that, after logging,
the well will be sidetracked with a horizontal section of up to 1,200 metres. A frac of between 6 and 8 stages is then planned,
depending on the length of the horizontal section. - Press Release, February 2013

In this issue of the Shale Gas Investment Guide, we introduce selected four companies prospecting for shale gas in the United Kingdom.
Once again it seems to be up to the independent and small enterprises to prove up the acreage before IOCs show major interest in the play.
Hydrocarbon exploration concessions in the UK are known as Petroleum Exploration and Development Licences, (PEDL).
Older concession types, EXL and AL, are no longer being issued.

 Its official. The slowdown in Poland

has caused kit to move to other markets.


Weatherford sent equipment to Lithuania, moved their Poland country manager to Romania. Halliburton and Schlumberger have reassigned their country
managers. Baker Hughes country manager is now based out of Germany.
Poland is no longer the focus.
These shifts reflect the fact that theres
little drilling activity. Equity backed UOS
won its first pumping contract, although
the job was basically awarded at cost.
Elsewhere in Europe, drilling is slow
to pick up. The UK shows the most promise; Cuadrilla is most active. (see chart)
Germany could take off. Exxon has
some 50 wells planned and could commence after national elections. Romania
and Ukraine will move slowly along.

Planned amendments in the


Polish legislation may result in a
violation of the countrys
obligations under investment
treaties and lead to future
compensation, including
lost profits.

Filip Balcerzak, As sociate, Foreign lawyer

Investments protected
under international law

oland is close to adopting new


legislation that will affect oilfield
investments including shale gas.
The changes in the regulatory framework
can result in: (i) the implementation of a
hydrocarbon tax of such value that it
prevents profits based on expected production; (ii) the inability to secure the
production concession by the entity
which explored and documented a given
resource, and (iii) establishing a new authority the Polish National Fossil Fuel
Operator (NOKE) whose competences
include the compulsory participation in
profits of an investment project without
taking part in expenses. In addition,
NOKE is also being given the right of veto
against investment-related decisions.
These measures can be considered
from the perspective of international
agreements on mutual support and protection of investments (investment treaties). Poland is a party to sixty investment treaties, which it undertook to
observe certain standards to protect investors rights. These standards include:
Fair and equitable treatment
Among other aspects, this standard
sets a minimum level of protection of
investors legitimate expectations. This
standard includes the expectation that
the legal system of the host state is stable.

Although the fair and equitable treatment standard does not preclude any
changes in legislature, radical changes of
a fundamental legal framework, which
in a given sector establishes the grounds
for assessing profitability of an investment project, may lead to its violation.

stitute discrimination against foreign


investors. Planned changes in the Polish
regulatory framework, being very unusual compared to the foreign legal
frameworks, may result in discriminatory
treatment towards operators in the upstream industry.

Prohibition of expropriation
without due compensation
Under international investment law,
prohibition of expropriation goes beyond
direct expropriation and covers also prohibition of measures which results in
something equivalent to expropriation,
including acts of law. Expropriation is
permitted only for reason of the public
interest, under due process of law, in a
non-discriminatory manner and against
prompt, adequate and effective compensation.

Arbitration
An investor whose rights under investment treaties have been violated can
defend its rights by bringing a claim in
international arbitration. It means that
the actions of the respondent state are
assessed in a neutral forum from the perspective of international law, without
regard to decisions of the domestic
courts or other authorities of the State. If
any violation of these standards guaranteed in investment treaties are to be
found, this may result in compensation
to be paid by the state, covering the actual loss as well as lost profits.
