Meeting U.S. Transportation Fuel Demand : Meeting U.S. Transportation Fuel Demand John Hackworth Joanne Shore Energy Information Administration Energy & Transportation Panel August 2004 www.eia.doe.gov


Capacity Surplus Disappearing, Creating Short-Term Challenge : Capacity Surplus Disappearing, Creating Short-Term Challenge Gross Inputs Operable Capacity Source: EIA


Overview : Overview Transportation demand growth – some uncertainties A need for both U.S. capacity & import growth New U.S. product specifications limit import sources Will gasoline import availability grow?


Demand – A Crucial Factor Affecting Capacity Decisions : Demand – A Crucial Factor Affecting Capacity Decisions Future growth forecasts What could affect future growth? Source: EIA

Role of Gasoline Imports – Now and in the Future : Role of Gasoline Imports – Now and in the Future Historically, imports have been an essential supply source Need increased import volume in future Will import supply be available? Why imports have been a competitive supply source Future impacts of U.S. specification changes The impacts of international supply/demand

Changing U.S. Sulfur Specifications May Change Import Sources : Changing U.S. Sulfur Specifications May Change Import Sources Source: Hart International Fuel Quality Center Gasoline Sulfur Specifications (ppm)


Some Historical Suppliers Cannot Produce Low Sulfur Gasoline : Some Historical Suppliers Cannot Produce Low Sulfur Gasoline Source: EIA, Form EIA-814


Shifts in Gasoline Import Sources with Changes to Lower Sulfur Gasoline : Shifts in Gasoline Import Sources with Changes to Lower Sulfur Gasoline Source: EIA, Form EIA-814


Gasoline Import Availability : Gasoline Import Availability Stable or Increasing W. Europe gasoline/diesel imbalance continues Increased E. Europe export capability Dedicated U.S. import sources remain Potentially high U.S. gasoline margins Decreasing U.S. gasoline spec changes limit supply sources in short run Demand outside U.S. growing faster than refining capacity


Factors Affecting International Product Supplies : Factors Affecting International Product Supplies High world demand growth Increases capacity utilization (especially Asia) Supports high crude oil prices Increasing imports and product prices Import implications of world refining capacity utilization Asian demand rebound and China’s growth Capacity growth lagging Ability to produce light clean products in non-OECD areas


Annual Demand Changes Vary Considerably : Annual Demand Changes Vary Considerably Source: EIA, IEA


How Tight is World Refining Capacity? : How Tight is World Refining Capacity? Recent claims of being maximum sustainable capacity are exaggerated Comparing world product demand and capacity can be misleading Must look at regional utilizations However, demand growth is outpacing capacity growth – for the moment

Looking Ahead 3-5 Years: Capacity Growth Less Than Demand Growth : Looking Ahead 3-5 Years: Capacity Growth Less Than Demand Growth Capacity lagged demand for past 5 years Forecasted gasoline demand implies the need for 1 to 2 MMB/D of added capacity in the next 5 years. Improved margins will encourage capacity But other environment investment requirements may detract New product specifications reduce yield in short term


Looking Ahead 3-5 Years: Import Availability Still A Question : Looking Ahead 3-5 Years: Import Availability Still A Question While the need for product imports increases, changing U.S. specifications may reduce the number of import sources in the short term Some changes were met this year, but future specifications more stringent. Worldwide refinery utilization increases will have little impact on U.S. import availability


Conclusion : Conclusion Petroleum demand will likely increase over the near term. Increases in both U.S. capacity and product imports will be needed However, the balance between the 2 supply sources is uncertain Both capacity expansion and import growth face large challenges
