Petrophilia; Can the Rise of China's Auto-Crazed Petro-
Consumers Offset Slower Industrial Growth?
By Neil Beveridge, PhD
Oil markets remain strongly backwardated as the industry
digests two big uncertainties on the future-outlook for crude.
Firstly, the glut of tight-oil out of the US could mean supply
out-stripping demand, creating a world in which we are
'drowning in oil'. And secondly that we may be reaching not
'peak oil' but 'peak oil demand' as a combination of
improved fuel efficiency, alternative vehicles (electric and
natural gas) and slower growth in China results in anemic
demand growth(Exhibit 1). Both of these concerns are
nicely captured by The Economist magazine covers of 1997
'Drowning in Oil' and more recently, this year's cover,
growth), China's oil market continues to grow at a relentless
pace. This comes despite the economic slowdown, which is
clearly taking place as evidenced by recent GDP data. Last
month China's oil imports hit an all time high of over
6mmbls/d for the first time with the country poised to
overtake the US as the world's largest crude oil importer
over the coming two years. Looking at Exhibit 2, it is hard
to see any discernable slowdown in imports, which have
grown three-fold over the past decade.

For now, China remains the engine for global oil demand.
Although at 10mmbls/d China only represents 11% of world
demand, it has accounted for 75% of incremental global
demand growth over the past 5 years (Exhibit 3). It goes
without saying that what happens to China demand over the
1997 2013 coming years remains critical to the outlook for oil.

SUV Mania Counts for More than Fuel Efficiency or Electric Cars
While the number of vehicles is growing quickly, there
remains a risk is that improvements in fuel standards and
alternative vehicles such as electric, CNG or LNG will offset
the annual 10% to 15% growth in vehicle sales. We think
these risks are small. While the government is targeting a
50% improvement in fuel consumption per vehicle, the shift
towards larger, heavier SUVs (which is the fastest growing
sub-segment of the car market) will mean that fuel efficiency
of the fleet will only improve by 9% through to 2020. Given
their popularity (owning to a high riding position and more
aggressive styling), the shift to SUVs is an unstoppable trend

in our view. In contrast, penetration of electric vehicles will
remain much lower due to limitations of battery technology
and infrastructure. We believe that overall SUV penetration
will reach 25% of the sales volume in 2020 compared to 5%
for electric vehicles (Exhibit 13). Bernstein Oil and Autos:

alternative vehicles, this remains in the distant horizon with
SUVs a more important near term trend. While oil futures
may be pointing to oil deflation, it seems hard to reconcile
with China's 'Petrophilia' or put more bluntly, insatiable
appetite for crude oil. Instead, we believe oil prices will
continue to rise (with a target of Brent at US$120/bbl) by
2016, which in our view suggests that global oil equities
(trading at decade low valuation multiples) are too 'cheap'.

Conclusion Oil and the Petro-Consumer Will Keep China's Oil

demand Growth on the Rise
While investors are (rightfully) concerned as to what impact
the industrial slowdown in China will have on oil demand,
we believe that oil may be less impacted than some believe
and China's oil growth will continue to be robust with
perhaps a higher beta to GDP than in the past. Oil is now
much less dependent on industrial demand than it used to be.
Demand for mobility is the new driver of oil and China
remains in the sweet spot. In our view, vehicle sales are
likely to continue growing at rates of greater than 10% until
the end of the decade. Oil demand is therefore tied more to
the outlook for the consumer (which we are positive on) than
to industrial growth (which we are less positive on). As
China moves towards 'a consumption led economy, car sales
rather than PMI may become a more meaningful lead

Outlook (2013/8/13) Year to date, Australian E&Ps have
outperformed the ASX and significantly outperformed emerging
market peers in the region. A weakening Australian dollar, with
AUD/USD dropping from 1.0 to 0.9, has been beneficial for the
sector. We increase our target prices for Australian E&P stocks
to align with the new AUD/USD outlook at 0.9. We raise our
price target for OSH to A$9.5, for STO to A$13.2, but keep
WPL's target price unchanged at A$42.5 to reflect Leviathan

We note that TLM has decent assets within their core portfolio,
including US shale, Colombia, and Southeast Asia. We believe
TLM's Kurdistan position is underappreciated; following recent
commentary on the Kurdamir-3 we see $1B+ of potential value
upside. Finally, we believe the company could be a target for
shareholder activism and also as a potential takeout target. We
continue to rate TLM outperform and rank the stock as our top

Offset Slower Industrial Growth?

Valuation Methodology
We value Asia-Pacific large cap oil and gas companies (PetroChina, Sinopec, CNOOC, PTTEP and ONGC) by identifying
the forward price to book multiples they should trade at based on returns on equity, long term earnings growth expectations,
dividend payout ratio and cost of equity. Our starting point is that Fwd P/B = (ROE x PO) / (Ke g), which ROE is our
estimates of ROE for 2014, PO is the dividend payout ratio, Ke is the cost of equity, and g is the long term growth rates. For
Australian E&Ps (Santos, Oil Search and Woodside), we believe an NAV approach is appropriate given a significant
portion of their values are attached to future LNG projects. In calculating the NAV, we have assumed a long term oil price of
$100 (real). We value Reliance and COSL using a sum of the parts methodology.
Our target prices for the European Integrated Oils are calculated by applying our estimates for 2013 cashflow per share
(CFPS) to a forward price-to-cashflow (P/CF) multiple. This P/CF multiple is generated through the relationship, and
historically strong correlation, between 12 month forward P/CF multiples and Return on Average Capital Employed
(ROACE) within the Integrated Oils group. Our calculation utilizes this relationship and an estimated long term, through the
cycle ROACE to generate the target P/CF multiple. The price calculations for the Integrateds are summarized below. We use
$110/bbl Brent and $4.25/mcf for US gas in 2013. We use DCF valuations to determine our price targets for the Russian
Energy stocks incorporating WACC rates ranging from 12-15% and terminal growth rates ranging from 0.5% to 3%. For
BG, Galp & Repsol and the European E&Ps we use an NAV approach. In calculating the NAV, we have assumed a long
term oil price of $90.
Our target price methodology for the Oil Services (SLB, HAL, BHI & WFT) is based upon P/E multiples applied to our
2014 EPS estimates. Our P/E multiples are determined by the relationship between relative P/E multiples and returns relative
to the market for each Service stock. We then adjust the multiples for forecast earnings revisions. We also apply a 25%
discount to Weatherford's target price due to the outstanding tax accounting and legal issues.
For the Equipment providers (NOV & CAM), our P/E multiples are derived from our crude price forecasts and individual
company backlog forecasts, and their historical influence on each stock's multiple. We apply these multiples to our 2014 EPS
estimates to arrive at our target prices for each Equipment stock. Our target price for FMC Technologies (FTI) is based upon
a P/E multiple applied to our 2014 EPS estimate, but the P/E multiple is derived from a high-end sector multiple of 18x
applied to our 2015 EPS forecast, discounted back by one year.
Our valuation methodology for the Offshore Drillers combines an EV/EBITDA based approach and Net Asset Value. Our
EV/EBITDA based target prices utilize 2015 forecasted EBITDA, as long duration contracts cause the group to trade on
forecasted cash generation further into the future. We apply a modeled group EV/EBITDA multiple, utilizing the year over
year change in crude prices and the ratio of newbuild orders to working rigs. Next, we adjust the company specific multiple
based upon fleet complexity. We tweak the multiple upward for Diamond (dividend), Ensco (operational quality), Seadrill
(dividend), and Transocean (dividend). Our NAV incorporates both recent rig orders and transactions, and utilizes our rig
complexity index to benchmark the global fleet. For Seadrill, we apply a 3x NAV multiple given fleet quality and growth, as
justified by DCF. Given robust contract backlogs and rising rig rates, we also add the discounted free cash flow that each
Driller will generate in 2013 and 2014 to account for the potential growth in assets. Finally, we apply a 2:1 weighting to our
EV/EBITDA and NAV target prices, respectively, to calculate our published target price for each Driller. Our Land Driller
target price methodology combines two approaches. First, we calculate an appropriate EV/EBITDA multiple based upon a
prediction model incorporating the year-over-year change in commodity prices, weighted by the US active rig count split and
the Land Driller reinvestment rate. The model inputs are leading indicators for changes in land rig supply and demand.
Second, we calculate the NAV including asset additions. For H&P only, we give a 10% premium on NAV as cash generation
appears more certain. Finally, we take a simple average of the two methodologies.
We value companies within our Asian Utilities coverage based on a combination of DCF, price-to-forward year earnings
multiple and dividend yield. Our valuation for Huaneng reflects an accelerated earning growth rate in 2013 and beyond based
on the company's exposure to declining coal pricing on the benefit of a focused capital spending program. Our valuation for
HNP (the NYSE-listed ADR) multiplies of Hong Kong valuation by 40 (the number of H-Shares each ADR represents) and
divides by the current HKD exchange rate. We assign CR Power a higher multiple due to the quality of its assets and
operations and its relatively low level of debt. Our concerns around Datang's non-power businesses mean that we assign the
company lower earnings multiple due to slower long-term growth. Our valuation for Hong Kong and China Gas is based on
our Sum of the Parts method. Our valuation for ENN is based on a P/FE multiple and our 2013 EPS estimate. We are
assigning ENN a discount to its historical multiple given uncertainties about what the company might do next. Our valuation
for CLP is driven primarily from a SoTP analysis of the companies' different segments. We believe that it is dividend yield

that primarily drives the stock price. Our valuation for Power Assets Holdings is derived by applying a forward P/E multiple
to our 2014 EPS estimate. Our valuation for NTPC is based on a forward P/E and a DCF valuation. Our valuation of Reliance
Power is based on a combination of liquidation value, replacement cost and Price/Book. We value China Longyuan, Datang
Renewable and Huaneng Renewables based on a forward P/E ratio.
For the US Utilities, our target prices reflect the results of three alternative valuation methodologies: (i) a multiple-based
valuation calculated by applying the median valuation multiples of a group of comparable companies to our estimates of a
utilitys future earnings, dividends and EBITDA; (ii) a discounted cash flow model over the forecast period of 2013-2016,
and a terminal value in 2017 discounted back to present value at the weighted average cost of capital; and (iii) a discounted
dividend model over the forecast period of 2013-2016, and a terminal value in 2017, discounted back to present value at the
cost of equity.
Our valuation framework for our coverage of North American E&P oil & gas stocks is based on the correlation of P/CF
multiple and the recycle ratio (cash flow per barrel divided by F&D costs). The recycle ratio-implied target multiples are
supplemented by company-specific catalysts, which are valued independently under a full-life cycle NPV methodology and
applied in the form of incremental (positive or negative) change. We adjust our target multiples to include the effects of
growth, capitalization, capital efficiency, and risk.

OTHER DISCLOSURES
A price movement of a security which may be temporary will not necessarily trigger a recommendation change. Bernstein will advise as and
when coverage of securities commences and ceases. Bernstein has no policy or standard as to the frequency of any updates or changes to its
coverage policies. Although the definition and application of these methods are based on generally accepted industry practices and models,
please note that there is a range of reasonable variations within these models. The application of models typically depends on forecasts of a
range of economic variables, which may include, but not limited to, interest rates, exchange rates, earnings, cash flows and risk factors that are
subject to uncertainty and also may change over time. Any valuation is dependent upon the subjective opinion of the analysts carrying out this
valuation.
