Why LUKOIL?
Because…
● Given the current economic & political conditions in
the world, the future of oil industry affects us all
● Large multinational & the fifth largest oil supplier
in the world after Exxon Mobile
● Improvement of corporate governance control &
relative financial strength of its equity shares on NYSE
& LSE place the company in a strong position
Introduction to LUKOIL
The World Over!!!
•
Global player and Russia’s #1 oil producer
•
One of the world’s top 5 publicly traded oil companies
•
Most internationally diversified with projects in the Republics of
the former Soviet Union, Eastern Europe and the Middle East
•
Holds up to 2% of world’s output of oil
•
Emerged on Nov. 25th, 1991 from a consolidated venture of 3
production associations – Langepasneftegas, Uraneftegas and
Kogalumneftegas (LUK OIL)
•
Organized into an Open Joint Stock company on Apr. 5th, 1993
Acquisitions
Making History…
• In 1999 Lukoil acquired KomiTEK oil company
• First post privatization corporate merger in Russian oil and gas
industry
• This strengthened Lukoil’s position in the oil sector even
further
• That same year it acquired Saratov petrochemical plant
• In 1999 it acquired oil refineries in Odessa and Bulgaria
• In 2000 moved its operations beyond the Atlantic Ocean
• Acquired Getty Petroleum Marketing Inc.
American corporation controlling petroleum
stations in 13 NE States, covering NY & NJ
• In 2001 attained 60% voting right of the
NORSI OIL – Nizhniy Novgorod Refinery
LUKOIL Production
Growing…Growing…Grown
•
Producing higher volumes of jet and diesel fuel, and are expanding
in the petrochemical section
•
Increasing its refining capacity in both Russia and Internationally
•
Constantly implementing refinery upgrade to meet American and
European Standards
•
Believe Eastern European Markets provide for low cost and retail
sales growth opportunities
•
Natural gas production went up
by 11% & oil refining volume
increased by 18% in the last year
Caspian Exploration
Why, When and Where…
• Over the past year Lukoil has been penetrating the North Caspian
Region:
– Sign of company’s upstream development strategy
– Shift the pressure from worn out fields in Siberia to underdeveloped
fields
• As per World Bank – Caspian will be a key region for most of the
future’s oil production
• In 1997 Lukoil + Atlantic Ritchfield Company
(ARCO, sub of BP) = LUCARCO
Agreement
• Working together on the exploration and
the development of the North Caspian
Region
• Political Union – BP’s down payment for
Russia’s compliance on the war against Iraq
Gazprom and LUKOIL
The Venture…
• In Nov. 2002 two biggest Russia’s gas and oil producers signed a
strategic partnership agreement
• Together will sponsor the exploration and development in the
North Caspian Region
• There are large deposits of gas in the North Caspian Region
• Lukoil is intending to use Gazprom’s pipelines because the tariffs
on those are too high
• Lukoil benefits because it is looking to expand its gas sector
“Keep you friends close, and your enemies even closer”
West Qurna Project
Entering Dangerous Waters
•
In 1997 Lukoil and the Baghdad Oil Ministry signed a production sharing
agreement (PSA) to develop the West Qurna Field
•
Would have brought Lukoil $70 billion worth of oil
•
Lukoil would own one of the biggest oil fields Baghdad has ever offered
•
In December of 2002 Iraq’s ministry terminated the contract
•
As per Baghdad Oil Ministry Lukoil failed to meet its obligations
•
Main point was to develop the field, Lukoil harmed
the Iraqi economy
•
The true reason behind the termination was hidden
Russian Federation – Political
Initial Agenda
• Restore Russia’s international image as a great world power
• Pro-Western stand
• Support following September 11th, 2001
• May 2002 – Signed bilateral strategic arms reduction
agreement with the U.S., and agreed on creation of Russian
NATO Council
Russian Federation – Political
• Implications of Impending War in Iraq
– Positioning: Side with U.S.?
Side With U.S.
Not Side With U.S.
Maintain built-up positive relations
with U.S.
Economic gains from lucrative oil
contracts with Iraq
Improve chances with entrance of
NATO
Implications with EU leaders – France
and Germany
Greater involvement in distribution of
Iraqi oil in the case of a U.S. victory
Hussein’s tactics from Gulf War could
imply rise in Russian oil prices
Might not receive just proportion of
Iraqi oil from the U.S.
•Result: Not side with the U.S.
Side with French-German Entente
Russian Federation – Political
• Political Implications During the War
– U.S. and the coalition forces likely to defeat Saddam
Hussein’s Regime
– U.S. to take lead role of developing post-war Iraqi
government
– Most outside nations, including Russia, believe the United
Nations should assume the lead role
– If U.S. takes lead role, current Russian contracts with Iraq
might not be enforced
Russian Federation – Political
• Political Implications During the War
– April 6, 2003: U.S. House of Representatives passed
an amendment that bars Russia, France, Germany,
and Syria from participating in contracts for Iraq’s
postwar restoration
– Elevated importance of U.N. Security Council
meeting concerning Iraq’s oil revenues
• Oil-for-Food Program
Russian Federation – Political
• Strained Relations
– U.S. accused Russia of providing Iraq with military
equipment
– Russia claimed that U.S. troops shot at a Russian
convoy, which was carrying Russian diplomats
– If U.S. pursues other
“Axis of Evil” countries,
Russian-U.S. long-term
partnership could collapse
Russian Federation – Political
Russian Government’s Future Decisions
• Recognize strong Anti-American and Anti-War sentiment in Russian
people
• Upcoming election might force Kremlin party to play to a receptive
home
• Oil industry’s reliance on political relationships with foreign
countries
• Future Western retaliations to Russian opposition

Russian Federation - Economy
• Russian Trading System
– Created in 1994 – Energy Index
– Largest Russian Electronic site uniting investment
companies and banks
– Two large movements in history:
• Rise by 1000% in 1996-1997
• Drop by 1000% in 1997-1998
– Based upon results of 1998, 2nd largest fastest rising
index in world

Russian Trading System (RTS)
Russian Federation - Economy
Ruble Crisis of 1997
• Initially triggered by Asian Financial Crisis
• Government defaulted on debt and lacked hard currency to pay
out to citizens
• Plan to stabilize economy via currency devaluation failed
• As a result, amount of tangible goods in stores disappeared
rapidly
• Despite problems, LUKOIL pre-tax profit higher then
forecasted profits and production increased
Russian Federation - Economy
Banking System
• Initial stabilization deprived banks of easy profits
• Central banks forced to keep other banks afloat
• Major banks had much capital but could not lend
• Government eager to deal with foreign banks, but they are
wary
• Problems include lack of transparency and legal
framework
Russian Federation - Economy
Corporate Governance
• Rapid privatization led to series of scandals
• Early government attempts to fix issues have not met
with success
• Managers beginning to realize
benefits of Corporate
Governance
• Government attempting new
measures to curb issues
Vladimir Putin meets LUKOIL's President V. Alekperov.
Russian Federation - Economy
Inflation
• Post-Cold War, inflation stabilized at 11% in
1997 (compared to 2500% in 1992)
• Financial collapse led to large increase in
inflation, 6.4% to 84.5% in 1998
• March 2003: Inflation has begin to return to
normal, forecasts expect to be no higher then
12% for 2003
Russian Federation - Economy
• Tax System
– Burdensome and Complicated
– Tax evasion high in the 1990’s
– Tax improvements have begun, but total reform still needed
– Recent changes include:
• Flat Personal Income Tax – 13%
• Maximum Corporate Profit Tax down to 24% from 35%
“But in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes, even in Russia”
Russian Federation - Oil
Russia, Thee Oil Producer
• 10% of World’s proven reserves
• 10% of World oil production
– 2001: 348m tons, up from 1999 (305m) &
2000 (323m)
– LUKOIL – 78.3 million tons – 22.5% of
Russian production
• 5 major Russian companies – LUKOIL,
Surgut Holdings, Yukos, Tatneft, & Sidanco
• Lack of funds caused collapse in early 90’s
• Development of new fields has increased
Russian Federation - Oil
Russia, Thee Oil Supplier
• Strong growth has made economy highly dependent
• 2nd largest exporter of oil in 2001 (Saudi Arabia)
• Importance as supplier has put in conflict with OPEC
• Volatile domestic prices caused domestic companies to
slow down
• Recent developments have led to new growth
Russian Federation - Oil
Foreign Direct Investment in the Oil Sector
• Foreign investment has been slow to despite potential
• Deterrents: Political instability, legal framework,
governance, etc.
• Recent steps by government to liberalize foreign entry
have improved relations
• BP Amoco Investment
– 2002: Purchase of 15% more of Sidanko – USD $375m
– 2003: Expected purchase of 50% of Tyumen for USD $6.75
billion
Valuation
Valuation
Any oil company with as large of a production capacity and
world presence as LUKOIL considers two eminent factors:
•Production
–Capacity and recognition of probable oil production
from development projects (Caspian)
•World Oil Prices
–OPEC production and reserves
–Russia’s current and future presence in the oil market
–Effects of the war with Iraq
LUKOIL’s strategic plans for the next 10 years:
• Lower production costs
– Improve efficiencies in existing operations
– Production expansion in lower cost regions (Caspian, Middle East)
• Strengthen Netbacks:
– Lower transportation costs
– Increase proportion of sales in international markets
– Improve quality of crude oil
• Increase Capital Expenditures to facilitate expansion

• Prolonged war and insufficient oil supplies
• Comparison to the results of the Gulf War
Note: “Best Case Prices” refer to optimal prices for world markets, assuming
reduction and later stabilization. Under these assumptions prices are the
lowest of the three scenarios, which in turn are least beneficial for LUKOIL.

Scenario Analysis Conclusion:
Most Likely Outcome: Intermediate Production and Best
Case World Oil Prices
• Why Intermediate Production:
– The Caspian project will not be as successful as earlier predicted.
– Closing of 5000 unproductive oil wells will not be successful: high
operational and environmental costs
– Number of unproductive oil fields to be closed will equal breakeven
volume
• Decreasing expenses and idle capacity
• Why Best Case World Oil Prices:
–
–
–
–
Lower demand for oil due to recession and slow economic growth
Higher non-OPEC oil production (West Africa and Caspian)
Release of reserves by OPEC to keep prices within target
Past 20 years shown decline in oil prices at the end of war

Reduction in networking capital as projects approach completion dates
Free Cash Flows to Firm Analysis:
Major Highlights
• Free cash flows decrease from 2003 due to increase in Capex in shortterm projects
• Revenue from short-term projects will not be realized till 2010
• Revenue from long-term projects (Caspian) will not be realized till 2032
• By discounting annual FCFF by Cost of Capital (11.41%), firm value
equals

– Russia will experience a Renaissance, given successful
policy implementation and monitoring
– Russian oil industry expected to become a dominating
force in the world markets
• The Company
– LUKOIL is a lucrative long-term investment
– Maintaining of its market share and strategic alliances,
probable future reserves will equal proven current
profits
