The 692km South Caucasus Pipeline has been designed to transport gas from the Shah Deniz field in the Azerbaijan sector of the Caspian Sea, through Georgia and on to the Georgia-Turkey border. The SCP Project was sanctioned on 27 February 2003.
The physical construction of SCP pipeline commenced in 2004 and the pipeline was ready for commercial operation in September 2006. This is a 42-inch diameter pipeline. The SCP pipeline is capable of carrying up to 7,4 billion cubic meters of gas annually.
South Caucasus Pipeline(SCP)
![Page 15: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The expansion of the South Caucasus Pipeline is part of the Shah Deniz Full Field Development project. The construction has started in 2014 and is planned to be completed by 4Q 2018.
SCPX is one of the major projects within the Shah Deniz (SD) Stage 2 (SD2) Program. SCPX is also a component of the Southern Gas Corridor, which will allow for the transportation of gas from Azerbaijan, through Turkey and into Europe.
South Caucasus Pipeline Expansion (SPCX)
![Page 16: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
SCPX will expand the existing SCP system with a new 48-inch pipeline loop with the capacity to export an additional 16bcma of gas sales to the Georgia-Turkey border. This is to be accomplished by building a new pipeline loop in parallel with the existing SCP. In Georgia two new intermediate compressor stations will be constructed.

Project Potential
A second wave of gas from Azerbaijan can be anticipated
with several additional gas opportunities in Azerbaijan
including Shah Deniz Deep, Shafag-Asiman and ACG
Deep that are being evaluated by BP and its co-venturers.
With continued progress these projects can follow on after
Shah Deniz, and therefore provide additional gas to
Europe
Absheron field could be exporting gas in the early 2020s.
The Middle East and East Mediterranean have the
potential to supply the Southern Corridor through the
Trans-Anatolian Pipeline in the future.

KEY ISSUES • ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE • WASTE MINIMIZATION • SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON DRILLING AFE
Case Study :
A GLOBAL MODEL FOR CUTTINGS WASTE MANAGEMENT FOR ALBANIA
![Page 70: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Common Knowledge: Cuttings Pit flooded with drilling fluid
CUTTINGS WASTE MANAGEMENT
![Page 71: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
FLOODED CUTTINGS PITS GENERATE EXTRA COSTS • Concerns about containment - /overflow, spillage; damage
to the environment
• Mud spillages – “mud lost” has significant cost impact on drilling budget adding to the cost of “mud built” to replace spillage volumes.
• Public perception – local population concerns about potential damage to agriculture/fishing and contamination of the domestic water supply/ water-table/ fresh water reservoirs
• Escalating waste-water treatment & disposal costs.
• Escalating cuttings treatment/ transport & disposal costs.
![Page 72: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
CORRECT EQUIPMENT SELECTION (for borehole instability, sloughing shales, over-pressured shales, tectonically-stressed shales
• Poor scalping shaker operations (sacking over screens)
• Wrong screens – too fine for scalping operations. • Badly degraded screens on linear motion main
shakers • Screen cleaning not being maintained. • Correct procedures should be posted in the shaker
house.
![Page 73: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
EXCESS FLUID DISCHARGE PROPER DISCHARGE
• Poor Solids Control Supervision • Need strict shaker operations procedures (No whole mud
to be discharged from the shakers) • Screens should be maintained in prime operating
conditions (high pressure/ low volume wash-down guns) • Mud spill to be vacuumed up and returned to the active
system
![Page 74: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
• Correct Drilling Waste Management on location is essential to reduce excess cuttings waste being generated.
• Extra equipment, manpower and time for reprocessing cuttings waste
SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON DRILLING BUDGET
![Page 75: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
COST OF CUTTINGS TREATMENT PROCESSES, eg. • Thermal systems • Hammer mill systems • Fixation processes • Land Farming • Bioremediation Are significantly impacted by poor waste management on location which can actually double or treble the waste treatment volumes.
POLYECO SERVICES ARE COMMITTED TO CUTTINGS WASTE MANAGEMENT PROCESSES TO MINIMISE WASTE STREAMS AND THEREBY REDUCING TOTAL DRILLING COSTS FOR THE
OPERATOR

ALBANIA
Oil, GAS & ENERGY
2015 SUMMIT
March 18, 2015
![Page 108: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
The refining sector of Albania
1. What is the refining capacity of Albania as of today and the
on-going modernization?
2. Discussing new ideas on developing the refining sector by
expanding the current refining infrastructure.
3. Global dynamics in mid-distillates in Europe.
![Page 109: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
Current Refining Capacity of Albania
AMRO operates the 2 refineries Ballsh Refinery • Built in 1978 • Largest refinery in Albania • Capacity around 20,000 bpd • Albanian and International
crude feed
Fier Refinery • Built in 1968 • One atmospheric crude
column and a mild vacuum column
• Capacity around 10,000 bpd • Albanian crude feed
![Page 110: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
Current Refining Capacity of Albania
Products • Virgin Naphtha • Gasoline (to start later this year) • ULSD <10 ppm • Gasoil <100 ppm • Fuel oils • Petroleum Coke • Sulfur • Bitumen • Diluents
• ARMO produces some qualities which are not widely produced in the regional refineries such as Bitumen, which is produced in only 12/24 of the refineries, Petcoke, in only 6/24 of the refineries or Virgin naphtha, in only 5/24 of the refineries.
![Page 111: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
On-going Modernization of Refineries
1. Continue the renovation and restart of units
2. Improve yields and focus on quality
3. Reduce losses
4. Use natural gas feeding
5. Improve Safety and Environment protection
![Page 112: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
Regional assets but connected
• Local but connected to international arbitrages and competition – Not sea-asset but still needs more
flexibility/options to compete with large refineries or trading refinery units
– Quality to follow European standards
• Infrastructure (x10 savings !!!) – Inland from trucking to railing to
pipes
– Ports: to compete within the Mediterranean: better draft, better loading rate, larger tanks, improve costs and transparency
Developing the refining sector
![Page 113: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)
• With Crude oil Producers
• With Gas Producers
Developing the refining sector A Partnerships Approach

![Page 135: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/135.jpg)
OBJECTIVES OF THE ALBANIAN ENERGY STRATEGY 2015-2030
The main elements of national energy strategy helped
to identify the investment needs in energy infrastructure
and where actions can lead to cost-efficient solutions.
The demand scenario analysis showed how the future
energy consumption of Albania may develop and
what are the estimated costs of covering (or not
covering) this demand.
Providing secure and sustainable energy supply to
customers delivering uninterrupted energy, at
affordable prices while taking into account
environmental concerns.
![Page 136: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/136.jpg)
OBJECTIVES OF THE ENERGY
STRATEGY 2015-2030
Create a legal and regulatory framework for the energy
markets and to allow trading energy across their borders.
Attracting investments in energy in order to meet the
increasing demand and to improve security of supply,
energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources.
Improving energy security implies, among others, to
promote diversity, efficiency and flexibility within the energy
sectors, to be prepared to respond to energy related
emergencies.
![Page 137: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/137.jpg)
Attracting investments in energy Actions taken to meet the energy strategy objectives
Actions in relation to price regulation and network tariffs and
removal of regulatory barriers, in order to achieve the objective
for attracting investments.
Introduce common capacity allocation mechanism
(coordinated auctions), establish one or more power exchanges
and implement price based market coupling.
Actions related to energy infrastructure shall ensure that there is
less chance of a ‘supply gap’ between energy demand and
supply, based on forecasts of demand and supply.
Interconnection plans are driven by the same needs that
includes connecting new generation, integrating energy markets
and new renewable energy in the grid, enhancing the security of
supply, and improving the reliability and quality of energy
services provided. Cross border interconnections capacities
have been identified already as priorities:

Actions related to energy efficiency and renewable energy
The most important action is to set and achieve a energy savings target.
Increase efficient use of energy final energy consumption, through
National Energy Efficiency Action Plans.
One of the key actions is to establish a target for renewable energy at
the national level.
Increase renewable energy share of gross final energy consumption in
line with the methodology
Allow priority access or guaranteed access to the grid for renewable
energy (RE).
Adopt and implement National Renewable Energy Action Plans.
Simplify and accelerate the authorization procedures for RE plants and
grid connections.

imperative to intervene in the metering system as well.
Investments in the distribution of electricity include interventions
in the distributions system of substations, in the medium voltage
grid, in the TM/TU cabins, as well as in the low voltage grid.
To realize these investments, 150 million $ have been provided
from the World Bank, of which 93 million will be used for the
distribution system and 30 million for the installation of meters in
the distribution system of substations.

THE UNDERGROUND Transparency on Shared Wealth
![Page 164: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/164.jpg)
What is the ? The Extractive Industries
Transparency Initiative (EITI) is a global
coalition in which governments, companies and civil society work together for transparency and accountable management of revenues from natural resources.
![Page 165: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/165.jpg)
EITI principle: A country’s natural resources belong to its citizens! Wealth from natural resources can lead to economic growth and social development in a country. Not disclosing information about this wealth can increase the risk of distrust, weak governance and conflict. Openness about how a country manages its natural resources is necessary to ensure that the resources benefit all citizens.
![Page 166: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/166.jpg)
Through implementing the global EITI transparency standard, countries ensure more transparency of revenues from its oil, gas and mineral resources
Many countries suffer the "resource curse“, the paradox that countries with abundant oil, gas and mineral resources are economically poorer than countries with fewer of these resources.
![Page 167: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/167.jpg)
• The is a global standard for the governance of a country’s oil, gas and mineral resources. The standard is implemented by governments, in collaboration with companies and civil society.
• Countries implementing the EITI disclose
information on tax payments, licences,
contracts, production and other key elements around resource extraction.
![Page 168: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/168.jpg)

What’s the benefit of
EITI?
![Page 175: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/175.jpg)
A transparent and open government enhances citizens’ trust. By adopting an internationally recognized transparency standard, governments perform in an improved investment climate by providing a clear signal to investors and international financial institutions that the government is
committed to greater transparency, commitment to reform and anti-corruption in a volatile sector.
Implementing the EITI Standard improves government systems and can lead to improved tax collection and budgetary plannings.
EITI also assists in strengthening accountability and good governance, as
well as promoting greater economic and political stability. This, in turn, can contribute to the prevention of conflict based around the oil, mining and gas sectors.
Governments
![Page 176: Albania oil and gas Summit 2015](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55cf902f550346703ba3a325/html5/thumbnails/176.jpg)
What does an investor seek? • Stability, • Certainty • Clarity of country tax rules and procedures. Benefit from a level playing field in which all companies are required to disclose the same information.
Benefit from mitigating political and reputational risks. Political instability caused by opaque governance is a clear threat to investments. In extractive industries, where investments are capital intensive and dependent on long-term stability to generate returns, reducing such instability is beneficial for business.
Transparency of payments made to a government can also help to demonstrate the contribution that their investment makes to a country enables a better engage with citizens and civil society.

The US recently enacted mandatory disclosure legislation as part of the US Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act, (Cardin Lugar amendment) requiring that all companies listed in the US disclose their payments to governments in all countries where they operate.
Goal: Ensure that the poorest citizens can also reap the benefits of the natural resources boom
Other complementary efforts to improve revenue transparency?
This law shines a light on billions in payments to governments from oil, gas and mining companies.
What does the law require and achieve? Oil, gas and mining companies are required to disclose what they pay to the U.S. government and foreign governments as part of their annual filings to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which is the agency that regulates the U.S. financial sector.

Extractive transparency in EU fast becoming a reality
As a response to international efforts on transparency the
European Union has passed similar legislation for the New EU Reporting
Standards through its CBCR Initiative that will :
• Adapt existing EU legislation to promote transparency and good governance as regards the exploitation of natural resources
• Oblige multinational compagnies to disclose payements to governements
on a country and Project basis. Listed and large unlisted companies in the EU with activities in the oil, gas, mining and logging sectors will be affected by this legislation
