RIL’s JV with Atlas Energy; to acquire 40% in core Marcellus acreage Reliance Industries (RIL) has announced a JV with Atlas Energy (Atlas), in which
RIL is to become 40% partner in ~300,000 acres of undeveloped Marcellus Shale
leasehold land in SW Pennsylvania; Atlas holds undeveloped recoverable
resources of 13.4 tcf. Total acquisition cost to RIL is USD 1.7 bn, of which, it will
pay USD 339 mn upfront and carry forward the remaining USD 1.36 bn to fund
Atlas’ capital cost for the next 5.5 years. In addition, the JV will be spending USD
8.5 bn over next 10 years to develop the shale gas assets. Other highlights of the
deal are:
• RIL has the option to be the operator in later years in certain regions.
• RIL has option to acquire 40% stake in all Atlas’ further new acreage (at
cost).
• Further, in case Atlas decides to sell its another ~280,000 Appalachian acre,
RIL will have the right to first offer (at USD 8,000/acre).
Outlook and valuations: Acquisition a positive; SOTP up by INR 23/share We consider this acquisition a positive for RIL, as it enables the company to: (a) find investment opportunities; (b) enter the US market; (c) operate the shale gas business; and (d) acquire further shale acreage in future.
Going by Atlas’ guidance and our discussion with the RIL management, we
consider the Marcellus shale business a good business opportunity. Reducing
capital costs for wells and increasing ultimate recovery from each well, reaffirm
our view.
We have valued this acquisition using NPV and believe that the NPV of acquisition
is INR 23/share or USD 1.5 bn. Hence, we are increasing our SOTP of RIL to INR
1,230/share. At CMP of INR 1,124, RIL is trading at 16.2x FY11E and 12.6x FY12E
our consolidated estimates. We maintain ‘HOLD’ on the stock and rate it ‘Sector
Outperformer’ on relative returns basis.

RIL to acquire 40% in Atlas’ Marcellus acreage for USD 1.7 bn Event: RIL (through its subsidiary, Reliance Marcellus LLC) on April 09, 2010, announced its JV with the US-based Atlas Energy Inc (Atlas). RIL will acquire 40% interest in Atlas' core Marcellus Shale acreage position (gross of ~300,000 acres). The acreage has a recoverable reserves of 13.4 tcf of shale gas. The transaction is anticipated to close by the end of April 2010. Acquisition cost: Total acquisition cost to buy out 40% interest in the shale JV is USD 1.7 bn. Of this, USD 339 mn will be paid upfront (in a month) and the remaining USD 1.36 bn will be paid by RIL under a carry arrangement. Under the arrangement, RIL will pay 75% of Atlas’ share of future capital expenditure in the next 5.5 years (extendible by another two years). Future capital commitments: The JV will spend USD 8.5 bn over next 10 years to develop the resources. Under the development programme, ~3000 wells will be drilled in the next 10 years. RIL’s share of the capex is USD 3.4 bn (40% of USD 8.5 bn). Total cash outflow from RIL in next 10 years, including USD 1.7 bn of acquisition cost, is USD 5.1 bn. Future options for RIL: The acquisition makes RIL a 40% partner in ~300,000 acres of undeveloped Marcellus Shale leasehold land in SW Pennsylvania. There are three additional parts to the deal:
• While initially, Atlas will be the operator, RIL could take up the role in the later years in certain regions.
• RIL has option to acquire 40% stake in all new acreage acquisition by Atlas at the acquisition cost.
• Further, in case Atlas decides to sell (all or part of) its another ~280,000 Appalachian acre (controlled by Atlas; not in this JV), RIL will have the right to first offer (at USD 8,000/acre).
Outlook and valuations: Acquisition a positive; increasing SOTP by INR 23
We believe this acquisition is beneficial for RIL due to the following reasons:
• While not large, the acquisition provides visibility of utilizing RIL’s large cash flows, as peak cash outflow for the next five years (including the acquisition cost) is USD 1.5 bn. We have always believed that the biggest challenge for RIL is to generate investment opportunities for its large future cash flows.
• The acquisition provides RIL an entry into the US market. Shale gas business requires low peak investments and provides RIL control of 5.4 tcf of natural gas resources in the US.
• Upsides from being an operator in non-developed acreage: RIL will get an opportunity to learn the shale gas business, thereby, opening up options to enter other regions globally (including India).
• Upsides from the future acquisition of shale acreage at reasonable cost of USD 8000/acre: By controlling 800,000 acres, the JV can become the 3rd largest player in the shale gas business.
Atlas benefits from getting funds for its future capital requirements. Going by Atlas’ guidance in its various presentations and our discussion with the RIL management, we believe Marcellus Shale business is a good opportunity. Key drivers for
Edelweiss Securities Limited 3
Reliance Industries
its attractiveness have been the reducing capital costs for wells and increasing ultimate recovery from each well. Probably, RIL has also taken a view that technological improvements will make the business more profitable. We have valued this acquisition using NPV and believe that the NPV of acquisition is INR 23/share or USD 1.5 bn. Key parameters used by us for valuing the shale resource are:
• Natural gas price of USD 5.0/mcf with escalation of 2%: While the current prices are ~USD 4.5-4.7/mcf, the forward curves indicate upsides to our assumptions.
• Capital cost per well assumed is USD 3.75 mn: This is after our discussion with the management. This is a key driver to value shale business. NPV of the business becomes zero at capital cost of USD 7.0 mn per well.
• EUR (recovery) from well at 4.0 bcf: Atlas had earlier guided EUR of USD 3.1 bcf/well. However, recent EUR rates from horizontal wells have been as high as 5.6 bcf/well. This leads to cumulative production from shale gas to plateau at 28-30 mmscmd in 2016.
• No increase in taxation: While other regions have ad-valorem taxes, South Pennsylvania has none. However, if introduced, the impact is unlikely to be significant.
We are increasing our SOTP of RIL by INR 23/share, to INR 1,230/share. At CMP of INR 1,124, RIL is trading at 16.2x FY11E and 12.6x FY12E our consolidated estimates. We maintain ‘HOLD’ on the stock and rate it ‘Sector Outperformer’ on relative returns basis.

Shale gas is a new and unconventional resource play
What is shale gas?
Shale gas is natural gas produced from shale. It is a fine-grained sedimentary rock comprising mud (mix of clay minerals flakes and small fragments of other minerals).

Oil and Gas
Shale gas areas are called resource plays (as opposed to exploration plays), as the geological risk of not finding gas is low in resource plays. Yet, the potential profits per successful well also may be lower due to its higher costs (hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling). Monetisation of shale gas Shale has low matrix permeability, so commercial gas production requires fractures (hydraulic fracturing). Horizontal drilling is largely used for shale gas wells, for maximum surface area contact with shale. Fig. 2: Horizontal drilling
Source: Horizontal drilling
Economic success of the Barnett Shale (Texas) has encouraged the development of other shale plays in North America. Shale gas development in US Shale formations across the US have been developed to produce natural gas, with the first producing well in US drilled in 1821 in New York. Shale gas is present across much of the lower 48 states (refer chart below). The most active shales till date are Barnett Shale, Haynesville/Bossier Shale, Antrim Shale, Fayetteville Shale, Marcellus Shale and New Albany Shale. Typically, each of these gas basin is unique and has its own exploration/operational criteria.

What is Marcellus Shale? Marcellus Shale is the most expansive shale gas play, across six states in the northeastern US. It extends through the Appalachian Basin. Estimated production depth is 4,000-8,500 feet. They are unit of marine sedimentary rock (may contain limestone beds/iron pyrite/siderite). While Marcellus is lower in relative gas content at 60-100 scf/ton, larger area of this play leads to higher original gas in- place estimate of ~ 1,500 tcf. The shale contains largely untapped natural gas reserves, and its proximity to the high-demand markets (East Coast) makes it an attractive target for energy development.

Unconventional gas production share in US to rise significantly According to EIA and US departments of energy, unconventional gas – shale gas, tight sands and coalbed methane (CBM) is expected to become a significant proportion of US proved gas reserves. This is especially critical, given the fact that conventional resources are declining. Though 1998-2007, unconventional gas production has jumped 65% to 8.9 tcf/year, which is ~46% of the US gas production.

US shale gas production/reserves at ~10-13% of total dry gas production According to EIA, US shale gas production was 2.0 tcf (~57 mmscmd) in CY08, up ~70% Y-o-Y, and constituted ~10% of the total US gas production. Proved reserves in US in Shale gas as on CY08 were 32.8 tcf, at ~13.4% of the US dry gas reserves in the same year). However, a shale gas report by the US Department of Energy indicated that growth in unconventional resource plays may have not been adequately captured by EIA. The actual annual gas production has seldom exceeded EIA estimates. Hence, Navigant estimates shale gas comprises ~28% of the total US estimated technically recoverable gas resources.

Reliance Industries
Company Description
RIL is the largest private player in the refining, petrochemical, and E&P sectors in India. Historically RIL’s refining and petrochemical segments have been contributing ~90% to its total revenues, but that is set to change, as the company scales up its E&P business and is set to emerge as a integrated E&P player. RIL is also venturing into areas of consumer retailing and urban infrastructure.
Investment Theme RIL’s strength lies in its ability to build businesses of global size and scale and execute complex, time-critical, and capital-intensive projects, which will prove advantageous in its huge plans in the E&P sector, organised retailing, and SEZ infrastructure. Also, there could be a potential upward revision to our estimated in-place reserves. With its foray into consumer retailing and SEZ infrastructure, we believe, it is an ideal company to play the India story.
Key Risks RIL benefits from protected refinery margins in the Indian market ,due to duty differential between products and crude. Reduction in the duty differential will be negative for the company. Rupee appreciation may impact negatively as RIL is positively leveraged to the depreciating currency. Slow down in global demand could impact RIL’s refining and chemical margins.
