A s e a n C o u n c i l O n P e

ASEAN is an association of the following countries:Brunei Darussalam, Myanmar, Cambodia, Indonesia,Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and Laos.The Asean Council on Petroleum, ASCOPE was established with

 primary objectives for regional cooperation on energy and petroleum resources amongst the ASEAN member countriesthrough the following activities:

*To promote active collaboration and mutual assistance in the

development of the petroleum resources in the region through joint endeavours in the spirit of equality and partnership.*To collaborate in the efficient utilisation of petroleumresources.

A s e a n C o u n c i l O n P e

*To provide assistance to each other in the form of training, theuse of research facilities and services in all phases of the

 petroleum industry.*To facilitate the exchange of information which will promote

methodologies leading to successful achievement in the petroleum industry and which may help in formulating policieswithin the industry.*To conduct petroleum conference on a periodical basis. The 8thASCOPE Conference & Exhibitions will be held at Philippines

in November 2005.*To maintain close and beneficial cooperation with existinginternational and regional organisation with similar aims and

 purposes. PETRONAS is currently the ASCOPE Secretariat.

A s e a n C o u n c i l O n P e

Presentation Outline

The following topics will be covered in the presentations: 

1.A review of refining capacity and overall productsupply/demand by each ASEAN Country until year 2010.

2. Implementation of the Clean Fuels program in the region andits impact to the Refinery.3. Potential trading intra ASEAN and with other regional

refineries.

(Note: Tightening of the product quality will have impact on theoperating mode and refining crude slate. With the correspondingfacilities upgrading, more foreign crude will flow into the region.However, this paper will not deliberate into impact of these varying

crude slate and mode changes to meet the new specifications.)

Impact of Quality changes to the Refinery

oMost of ASEAN countries will be implementing the Clean Fuels program in phases since it involve high upgrading investmentcost translating to a higher fuel cost.

oIn addition, with the regulated market the government is politically sensitive since the higher fuel cost will have a direct

impact to end customers increase cost of living.oThailand is ahead in the above program followed behind by other 

countries like Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines and Indonesia.Other countries like Vietnam, Brunei, Myanmar has yet toannounce their plan. However, most of these countries areunable to meet the European specs without any new investment.

oEach country also implement varying specs limit.oPresent is the summary of the Clean Fuels implementation plan

for mogas and diesel fuels in the various Asia Pacific countries.

Impact of regional mogas to the Global market

oThe total mogas shortfall from ASEAN countries (excludingSingapore) is 206 kbpd in 2004 and projected to increase to 261kbpd by 2010.

oExcept for Malaysia and Singapore most of the Asean countries

consume low octane mogas (92~94 RON).oCurrent net mogas exporters in Asia Pacific are India, S Korea,Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and China (about 360~380 Kbpd).However, India, Thailand and China produces low octanematerials (93~95 RON) thus can satisfy most the demand from

Indonesia, Vietnam and Philippines until 2010.oSingapore which produces high octane mogas will be able to

satisfy part of Malaysian demand only specifically to itsaffiliated company.

A s e a n C o u n c i l O n P e

Impact of regional mogas to the Global market

oHigh octane mogas avails will continue to be very tight.This is reflected in the increase in average value per octane of mogas for 95~97 is higher by 30% ascompared to 92~95.

oIntra ASEAN mogas trading volume has been increasingfrom 5.7 kbpd in 2002 and expected to increase to 12.3

kbpd in 2004.oIn addition availability of Euro 4 Mogas (benzene of 1%

and S of 50 ppm) will be scarce in the region without

any new upgrading investment. oDue to the tightening of high octane mogas supply in theregion, Malaysia has to review its high octane mogas specs.oAlternatively, Malaysia has to put additional new facilitiesto generate more gasoline at the same time meeting the

incoming stringent specs.

Impact of regional diesel to the Global market

oThe total diesel shortfall from ASEAN countries (excludingSingapore) is expected to increase from 337 kbpd in 2004 to493 kbpd by 2010.

oMajor gasoil exporters in Asia Pacific are Singapore, South

Korea, India and Taiwan with a net exportable volume of 470 kbpd. Currently, this volume can just satisfy theASEAN demand including demand from China andPakistan. However, post 2005 this exportable volume isinadequate to satisfy the increasing appetite for diesel in

ASEAN region since it has also to compete with theincreasing demand from China and Pakistan. The expectedshortfall is in the region of 100~200 kbpd. With plancapacity addition in the Middle East countries (Iran, Kuwait
