In terms of natural gas, in 2010 the region consumed around 511.5bn cubic metres (bcm) and demand of 653.9bcm is targeted for 2015. Production of an estimated 405.8bcm in 2010 should reach 556.7bcm in 2015, implying net imports falling from around 105.7bcm to 97.2bcm. South Korea's estimated share of regional gas consumption in 2010 was around 7.12%, while its share of production is minimal. By 2015, its share of gas consumption is forecast to be 7.17%. ------------------------------------------------------------ Full Report Details at - http://www.fastmr.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Global GDP growth in 2011 is forecast at 3.6%, down from 4.3% in 2010. Growth in both the US and Eurozone should be marginally higher than last year, while Chinese economic expansion will slow and Japan's growth will slump to 0.7% as a result of the devastating earthquake and tsunami in March 2011. Our oil price forecast for 2011 is US$101.9/bbl for the OPEC Basket, giving Brent at US$106/bbl and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) at US$95.3.30, although these differentials are subject to change. South Korean real GDP rose by 6.1% in 2010, with average annual growth of 4.6% forecast over 2010- 2015. Several South Korean oil companies, including state interests, are engaged in securing international upstream production, but the domestic market offers little potential for oil or gas. Oil consumption beyond 2009 is forecast to increase by less than 1% per annum to 2015, implying demand of 2.24mn b/d by the end of the forecast period. Gas demand is forecast to rise from the 2010 level of 36.4bcm to 46.86bcm by 2015, with all of the fuel being imported in the form of liquefied natural gas (LNG). Between 2010 and 2020, we are forecasting a reduction in South Korea's oil consumption from an estimated 2.25mn b/d to 2.19mn b/d (-2.37%), with the country's refining capacity rising from 2.769mn b/d to 2.907mn b/d. Gas demand is expected to rise from an estimated 35.81bcm in 2010 to nearly 55.0bcm by 2020, met almost entirely by LNG imports. Details of BMI's 10-year forecasts, which provide regional and country-specific projections, can be found at the end of this report. South Korea now shares 13th place with Hong Kong, ahead only of Taiwan, in BMI's composite Business Environment (BE) league table. It takes 14th place, again ahead only of Taiwan, in BMI's updated upstream Business Environment ratings, given a virtual absence of hydrocarbon resources. The score reflects an exceptionally healthy country risk profile, which partly offsets the lack of reserves and output growth potential. The country has a comfortable lead over Taiwan in the upstream league table. South Korea ranks fifth, above Australia and Indonesia, in BMI's downstream Business Environment ratings, reflecting its relatively high levels of oil and gas consumption, established modern refining capability and relatively low level of state involvement. It is two points behind Singapore, and has limited ability to climb the league table.
