Copyright Houmoller Consulting © Introduction Anders Plejdrup Houmøller CEO, Houmoller Consulting ðThis PowerPoint presentation presents issues concerning pricing of gas in Continental Europe. ðThe PowerPoint presentation is animated üIt’s recommended to run the animation when viewing the presentation. ðOn most computers, you can start the animation by pressing F5. üNow the presentation moves one step forward, when you press Page Down. It moves one step backward, when you press Page Up. Sept 12, 20111

Copyright Houmoller Consulting © Sept 12, Correlation coefficient ðFor two sets of data, the correlation coefficient measures the degree, to which the two data sets move in parallel. üA correlation coefficient of 1 means the two data sets move in lockstep. üA correlation coefficient of 0 means no tendency at all for the two data sets to move in parallel. üA correlation coefficient of 0.5 indicates a very weak tendency to move in parallel. a b In this example is Correlation(a,b) = 1 because a and b move in lockstep

Copyright Houmoller Consulting © Gas prices ðHistorically, gas has often been traded by means of long-term contracts üWhere the price of gas was linked to the price of oil. ðLong-term contracts and oil-linked pricing have a long history üWhen gas first began to be used a lot in the 1960s it was a substitute for home heating oil. üHence, it made sense to anchor the gas price to the oil price. üLong-term contracts became the industry norm, because big exploration, extraction and infrastructure investments required lots of capital. ð However, today oil is generally no substitute for gas. ðIncreasingly, gas is spot traded. ðThe severing of the linking makes sense, as the following slides illustrate üAs the correlation between gas and oil prices is decreasing. 3

Copyright Houmoller Consulting © Gas and oil prices – 1 ðIf you still want to tie your gas price to the oil price: üThere is a bewildering array of oil indices, which can be used for the linking. üAnd in order to make it even more complex: There may be a time delay, so your gas price this month is linked to an oil price from a previous month. ðIn order to cut a long history short, for this presentation, the oil price index used is the monthly prices of the index Europe Brent Spot Price FOB. ðNo time delay is considered üCurrency issues are not considered either. Sept 12, 2011Anders Plejdrup Houmøller4
