Peak Oil Background & Predictions What is the impact on supply chains? What can we do to prepare, respond?

Peak Oil “Oil is a finite resource… The critical question is: when is the date of the maximum daily amount of world oil production – the peak? After that, oil will be an irreversibly declining resource facing increasing demand which cannot be met. ” —Walter Youngquist

Oil Production – U. S. Finite Natural Resources

U. S. in 1950 U. S. in 2008 ü World’s foremost oil producer & exporter ü World’s largest exporter of manufactured goods ü World’s foremost creditor nation ü Self-sufficient in nearly all resources ü World’s foremost oil importer ü World’s foremost importer of manufactured goods ü World’s foremost debtor nation ü Jobs fleeing to other countries

M. King Hubbert ü In 1956, M. King Hubbert predicted U. S. oil production would peak in the early 1970 s. ü Was widely criticized by many oil industry experts and economists. ü In 1970, the U. S. oil industry celebrated its biggest production year in history with no end in sight. ü In 1971, Hubbert's prediction came true.

U. S. Oil Production Peak

Oil Production – World

Supply Demand 87 86. 5 Millions of barrels per day 86 85. 5 85 84 US Energy Information Administration www. eia. doe. gov 83. 5 83 Q 106 Q 206 Q 306 Q 406 Q 107 Q 207 Q 307 Q 407 Q 108 Q 208

What worked before… Following U. S. oil production peak, the U. S. maintained economic growth by importing more oil from other nations. Following global oil production peak, world will not be able to compensate by importing more oil from other planets.

When Does Crisis Occur?

Global Oil Peak: When? Deffeyes: 2005 -2009 Simmons: 2007 -2009 Youngquist: 2007 -2008 T. B. Pickens: 2005 -2007 Campbell: 2010 BP: 2010 -2015 Hirsch et al: 2016

How Accurate? Saudis, Kuwait, Iran, all major fields now in production have increased the stated reserves since 1971 even though there have been NO NEW discoveries.

Shedding Light on Saudi Arabia ü 5 super giant oilfields make up 90% of oil output and 3 giant oilfields make up another 8%. ü These oilfields are between 40 and 60 years old. ü All are reaching point of decline. ü Half of “proven reserves” are “questionable. ” 2005 ü Remaining oil is harder to produce.

Out of Gas: The End of the Age Of Oil ü Peak output occurs as ½ of supply is gone ü No viable new sources ü “Proven reserves” are “questionable. ” ü Remaining oil is harder to produce. 2004

Scenario Result Wait for peaking Shortages are large and long lasting Start crash program 10 years before peaking Delays the peaking, but still produces shortages Start program 20 years before peaking Avoids the problem and provides a smooth transition

Responses to Peak Oil End of civilization as we know it Major disruptions & profound changes We are in for a bumpy transition Technology and substitutes will arrive Someone will find more oil Expectations for Change

The Hirsch Report “The world has never faced a problem like this. Without massive mitigation… the problem will be pervasive and will not be temporary. Previous energy transitions were gradual and evolutionary. Oil peaking will be abrupt and revolutionary. ” The Hirsch Report U. S. Department of Energy February 2005

Out Of Oil – Alternatives? Oil sands / Tar / Shale Bio-Mass / Bio-Fuel - ethanol Natural Gas/LPG Coal / Coal to Oil Geothermal Pros: on-going / sustainable / renewable / available / cost effective when oil is high

Out Of Oil – Alternatives? Hydroelectric / Tidal Solar Wind Nuclear Fission Nuclear Fusion Cons: cost / resources / yield / scalability / environment / safety / politics / technology

U. S. Energy Consumption

Total Landed Cost The sum of all costs associated with producing and delivering products and services to the place where they generate revenue – your customer's door or point of use. Survey at the APICS 2007 International Conference: Only 14% have used total landed cost analysis with various scenarios of future energy costs

The Trade-Offs “The big question I have is how a spike to $100 oil might impact sourcing, offshoring, and network strategy decisions. At the heart of network strategy is the balancing of trade-offs across inventory, transportation, and operating costs - while meeting customer service. Almost by definition, the result of that calculation should be different at $100 oil than it would be at $30. ” Dan Gilmore Supply Chain Digest Summer 2005

Transportation Costs International: 40’ container, Asia → U. S. $ 20 per barrel = $ 3, 000 $135 per barrel = $ 8, 000 $200 per barrel = $15, 000 (projected) Domestic: $10 increase in oil per barrel = 4¢ per mile increase in transportation

Labor vs. Energy A high tech hardware contract manufacturer found offshore cost savings of only 0. 8% on a product where significant revenue losses might arise if supply chain disruptions occurred. The reason is that labor costs, as a proportion of total costs, were small. The far lower average wages were almost completely offset by increased logistics costs

A New Paradigm “We have a paradigm that manufacturing will go to Asia and we are faced with the ‘reality’ of managing complex supply chains with long lead times. Could it be that sound strategy coupled with rigorous total landed cost analysis will favor lean supply chains that support customers in local markets? Follow the leaders like Honda and Toyota. ” Mike Loughrin July 2006

Rethinking Network Optimization Dynamically Costs WILL increase until suitable alternate for petroleum is found Network Optimization skill-set becomes competitive advantage Managing for Minimum Cost Increase Competing for Maximum Service Level Protocol = Dynamic vs. Static

Potential Impacts Consolidation of freight n Rail, Water + fewer small loads Move from air to ground / truck to rail Fewer shipments/less JIT Longer lead time to market Economies of scale/larger lot sizes

Potential Impacts – cont’d More frequent re-alignment of distribution networks & supply chain optimization Shared SCM resources - 3 PL Higher inventory at DCs Improved service/less expediting Flexible supply chain strategies

Potential Impacts – cont’d Pressure on profit margins Trade off product cost for transportation cost n n More segmentation of markets > Mass Customization more important > Limiting Options/Features Integrated packaging/product design

Potential Impact – cont’d Deglobalization Local sourcing strategies Near/On-Shoring instead of Off-Shoring Manufacturing more near customer Increase in Capital Costs Squeeze small firms

Potential Impact – cont’d US Made Mexico Made India Made China Made Vietnam Made SA Made Korea Made Mexico Made EU Made US Made

Lean Supply Chains Supplier Relationship Management Lean Enterprise Customer Relationship Management Supply Chain Management is a core competency

Call to Action 1. Continue learning - Peak Oil 2. Routinely assess total landed cost (data accessibility) 3. Craft a lean supply chain 4. Dynamic Management 5. Focus - SCM skills in your org

Rethinking Strategies “In light of this newfound high-cost fuel reality, firms must rethink their supply chain strategies by questioning long-held assumptions about transportation costs and putting management decisions through new economic equations… Supply chain executives must prepare for the new realities. ” Mike Kilgore & Gary Girotti Chainalytics Aug. 26, 2006

Today, rail will move a ton of freight an average of 410 miles on just one gallon of diesel fuel. One gallon of diesel fuel will move a ton 59 miles by truck
