Orient Petroleum is seeking to place a private bond paying between 8% and 10% to finance the launch and expansion of its oil and gas activities in Nigeria. The Bond is structured to provide a 2 year grace period over which time interest is accrued. At the end of it Orient is expected to begin to pay interest. In addition, Orient expects to offer a conversion into equity of outstanding obligations contingent on Orient achieving key development milestones.

3. Problem & Market Need (1)
• Acute shortage of refined petroleum products in
Nigeria over the years.
• The demand for refined products has grown and has
exacerbated the shortage situation.
• Nigeria produces over 2 million barrels a day of
crude, making it the world's eighth largest producer
and Africa's largest oil producer.
• Refining infrastructure has largely crumbled. NNPC
refineries have proved inadequate and have
operated consistently at well below 40% of their
installed capacity.

4. Problem & Market Need (2)
• Nigeria is a net importer, which pays high prices
for its own crude that has been processed abroad.
• Over 90% of the fuel products used in Nigeria are
imported from overseas.
• The Government in 2001 broke NNPC monopoly in
the downstream, throwing open the refining
business to private entrepreneurs.
• Orient refinery is in direct response to the
invitation of the Federal Government of Nigeria.

5. Background
• OPR was founded in 2001 to set up refinery and two oil blocks in
the Anambra basin: OPL 915 and OPL 916 were granted to OPR in
2005.
• Evacuation of crude is by pipeline to an inland refinery (both being
constructed by OPR) or by river transport barging to the Atlantic
coast for international sale.
• Based on evaluation of the oil blocks by Schlumberger OPR
embarked on a staged development.
• Production test results established sustainable oil production from
one well, Anambra River -1, which is now on test production,
producing light (48º API), sweet (zero sulphur) crude oil.
• Additional tests confirmed the economic viability of Anambra River
field as a source of feedstock for the planned refinery.

6. • 3D seismic exploration work currently progressing in 640 sq km
out of total area 2,158 sq km in OPL 915 & 916
• 221 sq km of high resolution 3D seismic data have been acquired
and reserves evaluated
• 4 development wells planned in 2014 in the evaluated 221 sq km
• 2 land rigs mobilizing in support of this drilling effort
• 2 of the 4 wells expected to be completed by end of April 2014
• One well ANAR-1 producing currently
• First set of refinery equipment being prepared for shipment to
Nigeria for processing the crude

8. Investment Opportunity
• So far, OPR has funded its growth via internal
resources and bank loans.
• In order to accelerate its plans OPR is now
considering the possibility of opening its structure
to outside investors.
• Part of this investment will be used to drill more
development wells and complete the Orient
refinery of 20,000 barrels per day capacity.

10. Solution Product & Technology (1)
• The Orient refinery is a hydro-skimming refinery, with an
atmospheric distillation unit (ADU) and naphtha catalytic
reformer unit (CRU). As there is hardly any residue, there is
no need for a fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCCU).
• Straight run diesel (gas oil) and kerosene from the ADU will
be cleaned up to meet international and Nigerian industry
specifications and taken to storage. The light distillate
comprising LPG and naphtha will be processed further
through the CRU to produce high grade gasoline (petrol)
and LPG.

11. Process summary

12. Solution Product & Technology (2)
• The modular Orient refinery will commence with 20,000 b/d.
Capacity will be upgraded after a few years to 55,000 b/d.
• Support infrastructure include a 20 MW power station, electrical
distribution system, effluent water treatment plant, nitrogen
plant, workshops and storage tanks.
• Final products – LPG, high grade gasoline (petrol), aviation
kerosene and diesel.
• US fabricated units. Shipping will commence in 3 months.
• Construction and installation in Nigeria will comprise civil,
mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation works to be
coordinated by the lead contractor.
• Project commissioning expected in Q4 2014

15. Opportunity sizing (1)
9 existing refineries located in the West African sub-region.
5 existing refineries in West Africa have a combined installed
capacity of 162,200 bpd and they are:
• Tema Refinery, Tema, Ghana -45,000bpd
• SIR Refinery, Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire -65,200bpd
• SAR Refinery, Dakar, Senegal -27,000bpd
• West African Refinery, Freetown, Sierra Leone -10,000bpd
• Monrovia Refinery, Monrovia, Liberia -15,000bpd
These 5 refineries are operating at less than 50% of their
installed capacities; creating a huge demand gap being filled by
import of subsidized refined petroleum products from overseas.

16. Opportunity sizing (2)
• 4 Nigerian refineries; total installed capacity of 445,000 bpd, are:
• Warri Refinery & Petrochemical Company (WRPC) - 125,000bpd
• Port Harcourt Refining Company Limited (1&2) - 210,000bpd
• Kaduna Refinery & Petrochemical Company (KRPC)- 110,000bpd
• 4 Nigerian refineries operate at less than 40% of installed capacity.
• Nigerian and West African refined products market is huge.

17. Business model (1)
• Feedstock supply from its oil fields (OPLs 915 & 916)
• Characteristics of Anambra River Crude (API 48o
)
• Alternative sources for feedstock supply (NPDC & AGIP)
• Hydroskimming – no FCCU (simple to operate & maintain)
• Modular installation – fast installation & future expansion
• Receives crude oil, refines & market products in-situ
• Located in established product markets and transportation hub
• Pricing based on import parity – enhanced refinery margin
• Private ownership – focused and efficient management
• Technical competence of promoters and management
• Co-Generated power supply – reliable and efficient

18. Business model (2)
• Success factors
• OPR’s success to date due to
– (1) integrated business model, spanning full
spectrum from feedstock supply from own fields;
– (2) processing in its own refinery;
– (3) marketing directly to a market in Nigeria
thirsty for petroleum products and
– (4) strong corporate governance ethics.

19. Competition & Sustainable Advantage (1)
• The major player is NNPC, which has been
unable to satisfy local demand for refined
products.
• An analyst described their state as “total
disrepair and comprehensive paralysis in the
past three decades”.
• After revamp in next 2 years, the best
estimate of their capacity is some 50% of
original capacity.

20. Competition & Sustainable Advantage (2)
New refinery projects
• (1) NNPC agreement signed May 2011 with the China State Construction
Engineering Corporation Limited; 3 new greenfield refineries and a
petrochemical plant in Lagos, Kogi and Bayelsa states of Nigeria under a
$28.5bn provisional deal, to process around 750,000 barrels per day.
Construction works not taken off to date for lack of funds.
• (2) Nigeria signed July 3, 2012 MoU with an American energy firm to build
six oil refineries, in a project worth 697.5 billion N ($4.5 bn, €3.5 bn); to
provide 180,000 b/d refining capacity. Deal fell through in 2013.
• (3) Dangote Lagos refinery: Largest in Africa, turning Nigeria into a
petroleum exporter Projected $9 billion refinery of 400,000 barrels a day
capacity was to take off by late 2016. Survey work has now begun at the
Lekki Free Trade Zone in Lagos. Take off date is reported to be delayed.

21. Competition & Sustainable Advantage (3)
• Main competitive advantages of Orient Refinery
are simple, modular design, scalable from 20,000
to 55,000 barrels per day in 3 years, affordable
cost and full spectrum business integration.
• Supply/demand gap, currently filled by imported
refined products, remains huge (over 700,000
barrels/day in 2015 and beyond), even with the
entry of the Orient refinery in 2014.

22. Marketing, Sales & Partners
• Refined products are in short supply in the country. It is
therefore a seller’s market.
• Major consumers in Nigeria are transporters – cars,
buses, aircraft, boats, trains, etc.; also industries and
households that use diesel and cooking gas.
• In 2013, Nigeria’s consumption of refined products has
been about 35, 12, and 11 million litres per day of PMS
(petrol), AGO (diesel) and DPK (dual purpose kerosene)
• OPR to maximize value by marketing its refined products
through wholesale and retail outlets.
