Oil and Gas Exploration/Development Financing

Oil and Gas Exploration/Development Financing

 

Possibly no other industry offers as much volatility as the oil and gas industry. But you still need funds to pay employees, cover research and development costs, Additionally, oil and gas financing includes the fact that such projects:

 

  • Can be on a very large scale.
  • Often take many years from inception to the point at which the end product is sold to consumers.
  • Almost invariably involve government bodies.                                                                                                    
  • Are subject to certain specific risks over and above those more generally found in a project financing context.

 

In view of the capital-intensive nature of oil and gas projects and the varying degrees of risk to which stakeholders are exposed (in part, depending on the stage of a project’s development and operations), equity investors typically require different sources of financing over the life of a project. Key financing options employed include:

 

  • Equity sources. IPOs, cash calls (under a joint operating agreement (JOA) (see Key commercial contracts in an upstream project)), shareholder loans and share subscriptions.
  • Third party financing products. Corporate loans, acquisition financing, reserve based lending (RBL), equity bridge loans (EBLs), project finance, capital markets, hybrid financings and hedging.                                                                                                                                   
  • Other sources. Operational current or future cashflow and the raising of funds through asset disposal
