As oil and liquids markets absorb COVID-19/OPEC+, short term scenarios help business planning CONTEXT • Oil markets are being severely disrupted by COVID-19 and the actions to mitigate its spread. Magnitude and speed of demand destruction is unprecedented. OPEC+ have defined an initial plan to constrain an oversupplied storage infrastructure and market • Bain’s scenario approach focuses on major disruptions that can drive different industry outcomes. In this case, short-term dynamics are being disrupted by unprecedented demand destruction and plausible supply responses to potential storage constraints and prices • COVID-19 has such a dramatic impact on demand that we started there and devoted our first webinar to three demand scenarios • Scenarios are developed in the service of answering questions critical to business planning: Depth and length of the downturn? OPEC+ and major producer supply responses? Timing and duration of potential storage constraints? Different pricing mechanisms during the recovery? LON COVID-19 and OPEC+_IMCA2020 2

Demand side observations O B S E RVAT I O N S • Develop bespoke scenarios solving for the market outcomes that matter most to you – Aim to understand the plausible range of what could happen – not a point specific “planning case” – Define signposts and leading indicators to track speed and direction of macro- microeconomic evolution – Set trigger points to facilitate rapid and thoughtful response to unfolding events • Consider how all signposts and trigger points should influence all aspects of your business – It’s about strategic moves, investments, and cost reductions – and stakeholder & investor communication plans, human capital crisis response plans, and the rest • Plan now / act now. Start thinking about how “temporary” ways of working and reactive cost cuts could translate into permanent, structural improvements in efficiency and effectiveness. – Right size the organization; prepare for “new normal” at a market and end use segment level • Prioritize your portfolio (assets / business lines / geographies) ruthlessly – build around positions of (potential) leadership economics – Focus M&A / divestitures to concentrate scale where scale matters most (not just to consolidate) LON COVID-19 and OPEC+_IMCA2020 8
