Analysis Report on Merging and Restructuring Decision-Making
in China’s Oil Industry from 2007

Abstract :

1． Current China 's oil industry

Oil industry is an industry with high and risky investing concentration. Overseas oil corporations are combined upstream and downstream businesses into one, and their business covers all over the world. The imbalance of global economic development makes their investment return in different regions is different. In overall production chain, the investment return in different times is quite different in upstream (reconnaissance and exploitation), midstream (pipeline transportation) and downstream (oil refining and selling), as well as chemical business. The difference makes international oil corporations have more choices. And those corporations are concerning about how to fully, reasonably make sure of investment scale and field to seek higher investment return.

Since 2006, oil processing and coking industries are decreasing faster, and the whole industrial GDP decreased than that in the last year. Also, in sub-industries, oil processing, petroleum products manufacturing and coking industries, their growth is slower than that in the last year, especially coking industry. In aspect of saleroom, the growth speed is slower, but in coking industry, the growth speed of saleroom is decreasing very fast.

In May 2006, the overall industry reached GDP 579.934Billion, increased 29.9% than that in the last year, but growth speed decreased 61%; they totally sold 567.045billion, increased 29.36%, but decreased 74.6% in growth speed.

In sub-industries, the growth speed has had a little increase in crude oil refining and related products manufacturing. In May 2006, the GDP in theses two industries increased 32.81% than that in the last year; growth speed decreased 1.9%; total saleroom increased to 32.06%, decreased 26.7% in growth speed.

Because of slowering down in steel industry and export control, the growth speed of coking industry has been continued to decrease. In May 2006, total industrial output value, an increase of 9.27% coking industry, significantly higher than the growth rate dropped by 47.73 percentage points year-on-year; total sales revenue showed an increase of 9.62%. The growth rate of 46.03% over the same period last year declined substantially.

Since 2006, Chinese oil output in the international market and high oil prices driven by the rapid growth of the domestic economy continues to grow : first half of the domestic crude oil output reached 91.664 million tons, an increase of 2.1% refined oil output reached 84.822 million tons, an increase of 5.6%. Output of crude oil and finished oil products over the same period last year although the growth rate dropped by 2.7 and 1.4 percentage points respectively. However, the absolute value is output hit historic high. With regard to import and export, 06, the first half of the year, China 's net import of 70.33 million tons of crude oil, an increase of 17.6% net import of 12.03 million tons of refined oil, a year-on-year increase of 48.3%.

China 's oil demand has been filled with dynamic international price of oil has risen sharply in the past two years as a key factor. China has replaced Japan as the world's second largest oil consumption; China 's oil demand is estimated that 10 years from the current level of 6 million barrels per day to 11.5 million barrels expansion nearly doubled. Ten years ago, the ratio of oil imports accounted for only 6% of total oil demand, has risen to third. 2020 is expected to be 60% of oil imports. Automobile gasoline and diesel consumption will be the main driving force of business. Chemical ethylene industrial development will fuel further rise, China needs to import more oil. The next 20 years, while domestic crude oil output will continue to show an upward trend, it is limited. expected in 2010 and 2020, output will reach 170 million tons and 180 million tons.

Although China 's petrochemical industry was mixed, with opportunities as well as challenges. However, since China and the reality of the petrochemical products have tremendous potential market demand, the development of the industry as a whole had just entered the mature stage. Therefore, the dominant position in the national economy will continue to exist for quite a long time, the prospects remain favorable.

2 ． Merging and restructuring purposes in oil industry

1 、 Deepening economic globalization. Nowadays, economic globalization is the trend. Along with the deepening of the process, corporate mergers and acquisitions sweeping the globe, especially since the beginning of the 21st century. Transnational mergers and acquisitions group reached an unprecedented active state. M & Exchange from the amount of money involved, industry, geographical, has intensified. IBM century that the further promotion of cross-border mergers between capital flows and trade development, essentially deepening of the integration of global, international competition has intensified. accelerate technological progress and the multinational reorganization and restructuring wave.

2 、 Many countries now are opening their oil market. Since people into the 21st century, the country's oil resources to promote the development of its oil industry; gradually relaxing or lifting of the monopoly control of its oil industry, the introduction of a series of open door policy. Many major oil-producing countries, such as Latin American countries such as Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Ecuador, the Asia-Pacific region in Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Papua New Guinea, so as to revive its oil industry, promoting economic recovery and development, attract foreign investment and encourage international cooperation. for foreign oil companies involved in the funds and technology has opened up a new space for cooperation. Even by the special nationalization of the oil industry since the 1970s to achieve foreign oil companies have been allowed into the country exploration and development of oil producers also began to market in the Middle East policy looser. Capital markets and the market for petroleum resources in a dual mechanism, these countries to gradually relax its control over the oil industry. Open up its oil market for the oil transnational business approach provided an unprecedented broad market. Created a situation of the global oil resources.

3 、 Global strategies of international oil corporations. Multinational companies across national boundaries, and the whole world as a unified economic unit. its chain of the industry value chain in the best position to achieve its strategic goal of globalization. The 21st century, the new situation in the oil market and competition intensifies, many Western oil corporations like Exxon. Shell Oil, Mobil, British Petroleum and other forward to globalization phase, From multinational corporations have developed into a global company focused on global strategy. The " Union " and "joint", "merger" and "acquisition ', etc., to increase revenue. increase the company's economic development strategy has become the first choice for the multinational oil companies. Meanwhile, the developing countries are difficult to international oil companies approached the stage, More and more large companies are setting international, global strategy.

4 、 Pushing by new technology and low cost. World oil and gas technology has made rapid progress and revolutionary advances are leading to a significant decline in exploration and production costs. Multinational oil companies in China and the contribution rate of science and technology has been over 60%. Three-dimensional seismic imaging technology to improve the accuracy of the geological structure of the observed increase the success rate of exploratory wells; wider application of horizontal well technology has markedly enhanced the production wells, and the successful development of a number of direct and difficult to use commercial sexual exploitation of the oil field; Underwater recovery technology greatly reduces the cost of exploration and exploitation of the sea, but also the deep sea recovery possible. The application of these technologies for oil companies is to save billions of dollars. New technologies, increasing the proved reserves and the global oil supply, exploration and processing by reducing operating costs, create huge economic benefits for the oil companies, the oil industry as a whole to promote innovation and progress. However, it is undeniable is that the new technology, which is a "double-edged sword" for the oil industry, one huge profit. The other, it also brings low-cost pressure, further exacerbating competition. In such serious challenges facing the volatile situation in the international market, Only large multinational oil companies can use their huge financial and technical resources, make full use of technology and regional differences buy oil reserves in the world oil market, the development of new markets.

5 、 Share split reform in China's securities market pushed merging and restructuring. As share split reform of the shares of listed companies into circulation from some of circulation. it shares with the full market value can be used as a means of payment. thus greatly reduced merger and reorganization of cash.

6 、 In aspect of business achievement, China's oil industry is far falling behind of other countries', so that China's oil industry has to integrate. Because of "transportation of coal, power and oil" bottleneck, and the four stages of the development of heavy industry and high-energy characteristics of the larger burden of staff constraints, More and more enterprises in China and its international counterparts to form an increasingly obvious others only high profits and loss situation. The most obvious example is the oil refining industry. Information, Australia 's biggest oil and gas producer Woodside Petroleum Ltd. record second quarter revenue. Others like the BP refinery, the world-renowned Singapore Refining Company refinery profits have also increased significantly; China 's oil refining companies have comprehensive loss. Shijiazhuang Refining Chemical Co., Ltd. announced on October 25 this year, the third quarter results show. Admission for the first three quarters of the company's main business 1177847 million. 1.34892 billion yuan main business profits and losses, a deficit of 1.36 yuan per share. Facing similar enterprises in China 's high-profit but a fall in the oil refining industry performance. The Chinese government will grant subsidies, such as the end of last year, Sinopec 10 billion yuan to subsidize the refinery. other industrial integration requirements of large enterprise groups, in the awkward position of solving the deficit alone.

7 、 China's government will gradually implement promises of entering WTO, which also quickened merging and restructuring in oil industry.

3. Analysis on merging and restructuring trend in China 's oil industry

The soaring global oil price environment has also helped oil giants into China . China Petrochemical International listing not only increased the China Oil and several Chinese mainland and overseas Chinese oil industry group listing common strength, but also for the international strategic investors into China and the Chinese concept of a space. It can be expected that when involved in the oil industry in the international capital into horizontal integration, with the chemical industry. and the vertical integration of the pharmaceutical industry will be speeded up. The original "strategic industry" planning will become increasingly "global resource industry" nature of the market place.

European major transnational petrochemical companies in the merger and reorganization, Japan , South Korea , China 's oil refining industry reorganization and integration of the world's oil products distribution business reorganization and integration, greatly improving the competitive edge also changed the world of competition. Meanwhile, large companies from Europe and the United States in optimizing the allocation of resources, markets, rationally adjust the layout considerations, accelerated to China . India mainly to the pace of growth and expansion in Asia and other emerging markets. Shell refinery in Europe and the United States to consolidate its position in the market while actively into the Asia-Pacific and other emerging markets. in the Asia Pacific / Middle East oil operations in the occupied capital ratio from 2003 to 2010 to upgrade the 40 24%% Private consumption expenditure. Exxon Mobil's refining capacity above its 60%% focus on the Gulf coast of the United States, Western Europe, Japan, Southeast Asia (including China Fujian) four oil refining centers. Meanwhile, a number of countries and companies will change under the new situation, steps were taken to improve the competitive edge and enhance control of the market, adapt to high oil prices and the need to upgrade product quality measures and have achieved good results. Opening up new markets such as Brazil , India , China and the strengthening of crude oil and refined oil transportation route network, and placed under the control of state-owned companies. To meet the situation of high oil prices and lower costs, adapt to the changing needs of the quality of imported crude oil, India, China, petroleum and petrochemical companies in the United States and many of the refineries to strengthen the reform, the increase in sulfur crude oil, heavy crude processing capacity. Many large corporations for the world to step up the structural adjustment process, increase capacity and hydrogenation processing capacity. to promote industrial upgrading and a new generation of products, development of clean fuels and other high value-added petroleum products production. to meet their needs and requirements. Many companies also use modern information technology to actively carry out the refining and marketing performance evaluation, to promote efficiency and optimize the work of the various drop.

China 's petroleum and petrochemical industries is in the state of oligopoly with limited competition. According to analysis of us , world history and present situation of the development of the petroleum and petrochemical industries, As the scale and capital-intensive and technology-intensive notable features petroleum and petrochemical industry is an oligopoly in the market and the legal effect of the inevitable choice. In the context of globalization of the world economy and increasing competition that transcends national boundaries. Strong joint international and transnational mergers as a strategic option for companies improve their international competitiveness. China 's Entry into WTO and Chinese enterprises in economic strength, management, marketing, technology and operating systems with large multinational companies have, combined forces scattered, enable Chinese enterprises to multinational corporations in the face of strong competition thrown into passivity. The further integration of the domestic petrochemical industry is the rapid increase in a short period of time an important way to the international competitiveness of domestic enterprises.
