INTRODUCTION
Section 2:
6
Over the last year, Standard Bank has observed the challenges facing coal-fired power in South Africa, namely:
Only one unit of Medupi is in operation (after 8 years of construction) with no more operational until 2017. The first
unit of Kusile will not be operational until 2018 (after a decade of construction)
There were limited bidders for the first round of coal-fired IPPs
In December 2015, COP21’s commitment to limit temperature increases to below 2 degrees makes large numbers
of new coal-fired plant unlikely, noting the OECD has limited ECA support for non-super critical plants from 2017
Therefore, it appears there is a major strategic opportunity to develop gas-fired power in South Africa (N.B. nuclear
operates to a long-term timetable and renewables still has intermittency to deal with). In April 2015, the Department of
Energy started a process to design a Gas to Power procurement programme (“Gas RFI”) for a combined 3,126MW
allocation. This is aligned to IRP 2010’s plane to introduce Gas to Power (‘’GTP’’) to SA and is an indication of
Government’s support for this (backed up yesterday by a new Ministerial determination for an additional 1,500 MW of gas-
fired power).
Standard Bank believes that there is a major opportunity to develop a broader gas-driven growth sector that can
comprise IPPs, LNG imports, wholesale gas supply among others. This presentation will highlight the following:
Elements of the Global Gas industry;
South Africa Gas RFI;
Unlocking indigenous gas; and

defines “Energy” as
the nexus between
Mining, O&G and
Power (i.e feedstock
and KWhs)
We believe South
Africa’s energy
nexus is rapidly
changing
GLOBAL GAS ELEMENTS
Section 3:
8
The first Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (‘’CCGT’’) was commissioned approximately 25 years ago in Japan and was
fuelled by LNG. It can therefore be considered as proven technology. Feedstock utilized in a gas-fired IPP can
comprise of either of the following:
Indigenous gas: gas sourced domestically, this can either be associated gas or non-associated gas
Associated gas: gas which is produced as a byproduct of the production of petroleum. Abu Dhabi uses
associated gas in its gas-fired IPP’s;
Non-associated gas: gas extracted from standalone gas fields. Qatar or the United Kingdom uses the gas
from its gas field as feedstock in their IPP’s.
Cross Border Pipeline: if the country has no or limited indigenous gas reserves compared to its neighboring
countries, it can then import gas from its neighbors using pipelines. In most Western European countries, the
majority of their gas is imported from Russia through a pipeline (or for Spain, Algeria). A local example is the gas
which Sasol imports from their Mozambique Pande/Temane field through the ROMPCO gas pipeline to utilize the
gas at their Sasolburg gas-fired plant (as well as fuel wider operations).
Liquefied Natural Gas (“LNG”): LNG is imported into a country then regasified either at a land based
regasification unit or on a Floating Storage Regasification Unit (“FSRU”) before being transported to a gas-fired
IPP. Global examples of countries who have imported LNG include Brazil, Egypt and Chile.
CCGT is the same age as Pretty Woman

utilized to generate
power for over 25
years using
Indigenous gas,

Pretty Woman is the same age as the CCGT plant – over 25 years old

For the gas to be utilized in the gas-fired IPP the infrastructure network needs to be in place. In some countries, an
infrastructure network already exists. Examples of countries where an infrastructure network currently exists include:
Middle East – the infrastructure network was created as a result of the associated gas from the petroleum
deposits. In 2010, Dubai began importing LNG by means of an FSRU. Due to the existing infrastructure network,
the natural gas from the FSRU could be piped straight into gas-fired power plants;
USA – indigenous gas in the USA has resulted in an enormous large pipeline network;
United Kingdom – the North Sea oil & gas discoveries in the 1970s led to the construction of a national trunk and
local distribution pipeline network;
Italy – as mentioned earlier, the infrastructure network in Italy was created as a result of imported gas with all of
Italy’s gas being imported [42% Russia, 22% Algeria and 10% Libya];
Japan – Japan began importing LNG in 1969. The LNG was initially used for industrial and residential purposes.
Subsequent to CCGT’s development. Japan has built the largest fleet of CCGT plants
The source of Gas Infrastructure
Overview
Global examples
illustrate that in
most countries the
infrastructure
network was
available before the
gas-fired IPP’s were
built
In most cases, gas infrastructure was built as a result of indigenous gas or pipeline imports.
The main exceptions are in East Asia
Unusually, South Africa is seeking to import LNG through FSRUs without having in place a
domestic gas network
10 Gas Utilisation
LNG
Pipeline
Reserves
Gas has diverse uses globally, with industrial, power and residential demand the most
common uses
Europe has a balanced gas utilisation. Countries such as the UK, Norway and Germany use gas for Industrial purposes.
These countries utilise domestic gas or piped gas from Russsia to power industry.
LNG importing countries such as Portugal and Spain allocate a majority of the gas to power production, with some being
used for re-exports.
In South America 75% of imported and domestic gas is used for power production with 20% being utilised in industry,
mostly in the Oil and gas sector
Asia and Asia Pacific utilise LNG imports for Gas to Power mostly driven by Japan which replaced lost nuclear capacity
with Gas Power. 7% of the gas is used in transportation, mostly in cryogenic tanks in India

11 Gas Policy Drivers
Overview
Globally, Gas policy is driven by different factors which can be influenced by local, regional and international factors. In
the case of South Africa four factors can be identified as critical drivers to Gas policy: the developing Gas and
Renewables energy nexus, insufficient security of supply, climate policy (Paris Climate Deal) and Offshore/Shale
development.
Rise of Renewables adds to need for GTP:
South Africa has successfully invested in the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement
Program (REIPPPP) procuring c. 6,328 MW. The Renewable energy program though successful does not
produce base load power and is intermittent. Intermittency can be addressed by installing hybrid solutions that
allow for gas to switch on to supply power when Renewables are intermittent. Europe is currently facing the
same challenge of balancing its renewables with gas-fired power
Electricity demand is fast outpacing supply:
One market analyst estimated that power outages shaved off 0.4% of South Africa’s GDP in 2015 (a meaningful
amount). Therefore, South Africa has to increase capacity to power the economy.
COP 21 agreement:
Current global climate change policy requires countries to undertake absolute reductions in greenhouse-gas
emissions to limit global increases to two degrees. A finance clause from the COP21 agreement was intended
to monitor fossil fuel power development. This has the strong chance of indirectly restricting the ability of
developing countries to use coal for new power generation
Intentional gas policy meant to unlock upstream development:
Following Upstream success the UK was able to develop a domestic gas sector. South Africa does not currently
have an Upstream sector, hence the Gas policy needs to lead by spurring further industrialisation in South
Africa’s economy and follow by setting the appropriate environment to unlock South Africa’s Upstream (whether
shale or offshore)
Gas power stations
can be turned on
and off relatively
quickly, making
them ideal for filling
in supply gaps on
cloudy or windless
days when
renewables falter
The COP 21 climate
change deal has
provisions that
declare “making
global finance flows
consistent with a
pathway towards
low greenhouse-gas
emissions and
climate resilient
development”
The policy drivers that South Africa is facing are not globally unique, but are being faced by a
number of developing countries seeking to diversify their primary energy supply
12 Gas Storage
Comparator Overview
An FSRU creates a permanent look forward stockpile, It allows for reasonable storage and if the shipping delivery timetable
is managed well, FSRU’s can be reliable storage vessels.
In the South African context an FSRU is immune to weather and industrial action risks. This makes FSRU as a form of
storage a good counterbalance to the risks faced by coal storage (or diesel)
Gas also has the added advantage of being able to be stored in the pipeline network by altering the deliverability rates
If any of the potential risks materialise, and there is a delay in LNG delivery, an FSRU with 160,000m3 storage capability has
over 20 days of reserve LNG to power a 1,000MW power plant
A FSRU diversifies South Africa’s energy storage options and its output can be increased by
more frequent shipping deliveries

SOUTH AFRICA GAS RFI
Section 4:
14
On 19th of May 2015, the DoE in SA released the Gas RFI. The DoE intends to use the responses received to design a
procurement programme for 3,126 MW of generation capacity.
Through the GTP programme the DoE envisages creating a market where the demand for gas and its supply becomes
available simultaneously, this creates an opportunity for the development of the SA gas industry to supply the demand
created by GTP. In the absence of indigenous gas, gas will have to be imported.
The RFI outlined the GTP programme can be commissioned in either of the two ways:
– Bundled (Integrated) Project: a project for all the elements, where elements describes the different participants
from gas supplier, regasification facility, power generation facility and early power generation facility.
– Unbundled (Non-Integrated) Project: a project for some, but not, all elements
Depending on the type of project chosen, these are the options available to the respondents
Gas RFI
The Gas RFI is

policy (per DOE
disclosure to
Parliament Portfolio
Committee on
Energy)
Eskom will be the
sole Power Buyer of
Power Capacity
given their current
capacity as the

Overview Key points
*Bundled Project
Option 1 Single Project Company, made up of one or more related or unrelated entities
as a consortium, responding to provide a Bundled Project
Option 2 Not yet a member of a consortium but wishes to form/ join a consortium to
provide a Bundled Project
Unbundled Project Option 3 Responding to provide one or more Elements
Gas has been defined as any natural gas which occurs naturally underground or
unconventional gas such as shale or CBM
The other gasses include: syngas, underground coal gasification (“UCG”) or conventional coal
gasification as part of integrated gasification and combined cycle (“IGCC”), LNG, CNG or LPG
*The RFI states that if no LNG is to be procured or less than 500MW solution is provided, the respondents must automatically offer a bundled solution
15 Gas Market Vision
Overview
Standard Bank believes the Gas RFP needs to have in mind a gas market vision as well as an IPP objective. This vision will
assist in making choices around, inter alia, the options between Bundled and Unbundled Projects and the nature/design of
import terminals. Some important issues we see are the following:
Market Design (Vertically Integrated v Unbundled)
– In many markets (e.g. European Union), vertically integrated (i.e. molecules and infrastructure commonly owned and
operated in concert) gas markets have been curtailed. However, in SA, this approach was explicitly permitted for
Sasol’s SA to Mozambique Bundled Project. Will this approach be repeated for the RFP?
The Role of The State
– What role is the State going to take in the domestic market? Will it own infrastructure (per Transnet now)? Will it supply
natural gas (currently carried out by private companies?) Or lead with economic regulation (per NERSA)?
Is Third Party Access desired?
– Due to inherent technical limitations, this is more challenging with FSRUs than with land-based terminals. Is
competition on LNG Supply desired? Or competition for gas supply? The Gas Amendment Bill indicates open access is
sought
Is a Gas Market Desired? And Transition Period
– Historically, the limited SA gas market has functioned on the basis of economically regulated (by NERSA) geographical
monopolies. The Gas RFP can help change this over time (if desired). What would be the transition period to a market?
If indigenous gas was discovered, would gas on gas competition be encouraged?
– Would the procurement/ trading of LNG for the Gas Distribution Market form part of the procurement process?
Re-Industrialisation
– Natural gas offers opportunities for fuel-switching and more efficient energy usage, which could boost industrialisation
(including by black industrialists) and in turn boosting investment and employment
SA does not
presently have a
policy on natural
gas
Ongoing
initiatives such as
the Gas
Amendment Bill
and the Gas
Utilisation Master
Plan are being re-
thought in the
context of the
developing Gas
RFI (per DOE
presentation to
Parliament
Portfolio
Committee on
Energy)
There is the potential for conflicting objectives between procuring IPPs and developing a gas industry
(especially with Bundled Projects) but equally the potential for synergies and growth
16 The Physical Reality
Overview
One potential ‘technical gas hub” at any location is the building of an individual connection for regasification flow (whether
FSRU or Land-Based) connecting to [up to] three 1,000MW IPP’s, with the building of enabling infrastructure able to connect a
future onshore pipeline and/or an offshore pipeline. We would argue that ‘’Common Facilities’’ could optimally be built by
the initial IPP for future benefit (assuming a Bundled Project).
Why? For a given location, assuming an initial RFP procures 1,000MW, the winning FSRU bidder will then build the necessary
infrastructure for a 1,000MW CCGT. Should the Government decide to procure more MW at the same location the existing
FSRU send out rate will need to be increased to allow for more LNG imports (e.g. ships every 7 or 10 days compared to 21 or
so).
If the initial deal was structured in a way that does not allow for third party access to FSRUs and Pipelines then the Bundled
Project IPP/FSRU winner from the first RFP has a natural advantage to supply future IPP’s which then will create a potential
monopoly (unless this risk has been explicitly addressed in the PPA).
Even though the
send out rate of an
FSRU can be
increased to fuel
increased MWs (e.g.
1000 to 3000), the
operational
complexity of the
FSRU structure (e.g.
the need to
schedule shipping),
especially for a
bundled project,
may raise
challenges of
ensuring future IPP
competition
It is important to
understand at each
location the
relationship
between port access
and availability of
sites for the actual
power plant and /or
terminals and other
infrastructure
Pipelines and
terminals should be
separated from gas
trading

Regulation
Whether FSRU or land-based options are selected, multiple regulations are required to be taken into consideration,
for a long term successful gas industry for example: MPRDA, Gas Act, National Ports Act, Electricity Regulation
Act; each of which have timeline and potentially fatal flaw implications. As a bottom line, multiple tariffs must be
worked out, regulated and coordinated (potentially following a time-constrained bid evaluation) which is
not easy in the SA energy environment
Commodity, Currency & Liquidity Risks
There appears no doubt that the commodity and currency risks of purchasing LNG (always in USD or USD-linked
and linked to oil price movements (% of Brent) and / or Henry Hub price movements) will need to be transferred to
the State (one way or another) either via their guarantee of the PPA or a state sponsored gas aggregator .
Otherwise, other countries will buy the LNG (perhaps cheaper than SA would have paid).
The debate appears whether these are held by the Aggregator (who then could supply fuel in ZAR, with the risk
assumed by NT/Reserve Bank) or by the IPP (who will then pass on the risk under the PPA tariffs/guarantee) (with
volatility implications for Eskom and NERSA, which risks may be better assumed by National Treasury / Reserve
Bank). In passing, we note Eskom’s tariff application cycle and regular submission to NERSA of Regulatory
Clearing Account submissions
There are implications for the currency of the PPA tariffs together with its funding plans and risks. In addition,
major swings in LNG prices may also expose liquidity risks for the LNG buyer (whether IPP or Aggregator);
ESIA Approval Process
From the outside, the ESIA process appears complex:
► Multiple sites; multiple assets; no current knowledge on who will be the winning project sponsor, noting certain
elements have not yet been clarified
Prima facie, we expect a FSRU approach could be quicker than a land-based Terminal although prospective IPPs
will need clarity on siting and process to be able to commence their own ESIAs
Could different ESIA timings be permitted?
► E.g. IPP ESIA approval needed only after once the LNG import / site requirements are determined. This could
challenge the target first power dates, although we understand at least one site has already started its ESIA
Generic Issues
Overview
Aside from the
above, developing
and executing any
LNG import
transaction in South
Africa will require a
number of generic
issues to be
resolved, for
example, the
following…
UNLOCKING INDIGENOUS
RESOURCES
Section 5:
19 Introduction
Overview
The three targeted LNG Import locations are all reasonably proximate to the following offshore and shale exploration blocks:
– Coega: Total/CNR (offshore), Shell (two shale blocks), Challenger Energy (Shale)
– Richards Bay: Exxon Mobil/Statoil/Impact; ENI/Sasol (offshore) as well as long-term pipeline connection to
Mozambique
– Saldanha: Anadarko, Shell, Sunbird (offshore) with Shell and Falcon/Chevron of longer distance shale
In designing the procurement model, Standard Bank believes it is important not to ignore the long-term indigenous resource
potential of South Africa. For example:
– The LNG procurement process could optimally be designed such that, as and when indigenous resources become
available at a particular site, there is the possibility to reduce LNG purchases and / or terminate the LNG supply
contract. For example, if material shale gas is discovered and then produced at Shell’s Eastern Precinct, then it could
be supplied to any Coega IPP (in preference to LNG). A potential time to do this is after [10] years of commercial
operations. The advancements within the LNG market have led to contracts which provide a high degree of quantity
flexibility, with an ability to scale down quantities over time. Clearly, the location needs to be designed for this, e.g. with
Common Facilities built by IPP1
– Upstream Oil & Gas exploration is renowned as a risky industry. However, if a potential route to market (the IPP) exists
in reasonable proximity to the block with a potential sales mechanism, the O&G company is incentivised to drill
additional wells (as a subsequent discovery can be marketed). An example is ENI’s recent Zohr discovery in Egypt,
170kms offshore but with market visibility. A Field Development Plan was submitted in only three months from
discovery.
– With a Non-Integrated / Aggregator model, the above is easy to solve (e.g. a single entity buys and sells all gas on
behalf of the State and can make the calls). It needs careful thought if an Integrated Model is selected . In that model,
IPPs have optimised a bid for private interests at a single site centered on LNG imports. Their priority is operating their
Project successfully under specified contracts not unlocking SA’s indigenous resources. For example, why would an
IPP spend time negotiating a future GSA with a shale player unless incentivized to do so? Who does the infrastructure
planning to connect them? And who builds and funds that infrastructure? Standard Bank observes that the Gas IPP
process is opening up broader gas issues that may need resolution, to ensure the country has future optionality
Standard Bank
believes the Gas RFI
process needs to
also consider the
‘’what if’’ of South
Africa discovering
material indigenous
hydrocarbons
For example, after
importing LNG,
Egypt then found
the giant Zohr field
(which can fuel
domestic
requirements)

AFRICA GAS FORUM:
IPP OFFICE SPEECH
Section 6:
24
On 15th February 2016, Karen Breytenbach of the IPP Office presented to Africa Gas Forum on the 3,126 MW Gas to Power (”GTP”)
programme. Standard Bank’s summary of the speech is as follows:
GTP has resulted in the re-drafting of the Integrated Energy Plan and Integrated Resources Plan;
One of the main objectives of GTP is to unlock the opportunities which are presented by SA O&G upstream developments
(both offshore and shale), as the importation of LNG for GTP is potentially expensive;
Government will backstop the credit risks of Eskom’s PPA;
Developing a domestic gas market is very important, Department of Trade Industry has established a team to unpack
downstream industrialization and take forward developments;
A State Owned Company may be tasked with developing new domestic pipelines;
Government is currently conducting ESIA’s at all three ports (Saldanha, Richards Bay and Coega) as well analyzing
necessary servitudes and pipelines. The State will allocate a common IPP site for all bidders but if a bidder has its own site a
better site then they may use their own;
FSRU to be used initially (land-based terminals may be constructed at a later stage if the country never finds indigenous gas)
A bundled procurement approach will be taken, with enforced third party access to the FSRU and pipelines. The different
elements will not be permitted to cross-subsidise each other in a Bundled Project
Future IPP programs at the initial site (with the FSRU) will use the same FSRU as the initial IPP (as only one FSRU is
permitted per port)
Request for Qualification targeted to be issued in April / May 2016
Africa Gas Forum – IPP Office Speech
Overview
The IPP Office
made a speech
on 15th
February 2016
to the Africa
Gas Forum
DoE Minister
made a
Parliament
speech dated
17th February
2016, that
disclosed a
new
determination
for 1500 MW of
gas-fired power
relating to
Ankerlig,
Gourkiwa and a
new plant
25
Third party access to Pipelines and FSRUs
How will this be technically achieved? There are potential LNG carrier scheduling constraints and challenges if
the IPP is not operated at base load
How will this be commercially tendered? How will capacity be allocated to local gas market suppliers?
A consequence is the Bundled/Integrated group will be required to be unpacked into individual separate elements
(i.e. LNG purchaser, FSRU operator, Pipeline Operator, Gas Seller, IPP). Will NERSA have capacity to regulate
up to five separate entities in each Project?
Gas market development risk
Will the IPP Group also be allowed to sell gas locally (to other IPPs or industrial users)? It appears so. If there
were no other future gas supply bidders, the IPP Group could become the regulated gas seller/ marketer for the
geographic region
A State Owned Company is being targeted to develop new local gas pipelines for “delivering the gas to the
people”. Which State Owned Company will be responsible? How will this role interface with the allocation of future
capacity?
Necessarily, Day 1 FSRU and Pipeline capacity will be more than the capacity used to generate kWhs. Who will
pay for this excess capacity? Will the market take a risk on it? Or the State? How will the enabling regulations
and projects be developed?
Africa Gas Forum – IPP Office Speech
Implications
Several issues
arise from what
was a very
positive speech
by the IPP
Office, for
example
