DRAFT

COVID-19 and OPEC+
Short term oil and liquids demand and supply scenarios
As oil and liquids markets absorb COVID-19/OPEC+, short term scenarios help
business planning
CONTEXT

• Oil markets are being severely disrupted by COVID-19 and the actions to mitigate its spread.
  Magnitude and speed of demand destruction is unprecedented. OPEC+ have defined an initial plan
  to constrain an oversupplied storage infrastructure and market

• Bain’s scenario approach focuses on major disruptions that can drive different industry
  outcomes. In this case, short-term dynamics are being disrupted by unprecedented demand
  destruction and plausible supply responses to potential storage constraints and prices

• COVID-19 has such a dramatic impact on demand that we started there and devoted our first
  webinar to three demand scenarios

• Scenarios are developed in the service of answering questions critical to business planning:
  Depth and length of the downturn? OPEC+ and major producer supply responses? Timing and
  duration of potential storage constraints? Different pricing mechanisms during the recovery?

• Develop bespoke scenarios solving for the market outcomes that matter most to you
  – Aim to understand the plausible range of what could happen – not a point specific “planning case”
  – Define signposts and leading indicators to track speed and direction of macro- microeconomic evolution
  – Set trigger points to facilitate rapid and thoughtful response to unfolding events

• Consider how all signposts and trigger points should influence all aspects of your business
  – It’s about strategic moves, investments, and cost reductions
  – and stakeholder & investor communication plans, human capital crisis response plans, and the rest

• Plan now / act now. Start thinking about how “temporary” ways of working and reactive cost cuts could
  translate into permanent, structural improvements in efficiency and effectiveness.

  – Right size the organization; prepare for “new normal” at a market and end use segment level

• Prioritize your portfolio (assets / business lines / geographies) ruthlessly – build around positions of
  (potential) leadership economics

  – Focus M&A / divestitures to concentrate scale where scale matters most (not just to consolidate)
