Environmental Expenditures by the U.S. Oil and Natural Gas Industry 990 206

The industry has spent $,045 on the environment for every man, woman and child in the United States. About This Report Expenditures covered in this report are those related to the prevention, control, abatement, or elimination of environmental pollution by the U.S. oil and natural gas industry in the United States and its territories. API sends questionnaires to a sample of companies that are representative of the industry. To ensure accurate and comparable responses, API includes detailed guidelines and definitions for completing the survey. After checking for consistency, API uses this sample to estimate the industry s overall environmental expenditures. Figure U.S. Environmental Expenditures 2007-206 by (by sector *) $35 $30 $25 Billions $20 $5 $0 R&D and Corporate Programs Exploration and Production $5 $0 2007 2008 2009 200 20 202 203 204 205 206 * Remediation & Spills expenditures are included in the sector numbers and are reported data only. 200 data is unusually high due to an outlier event. The remaining sector expenditures are estimated for the entire industry. Based on 206 U.S. population estimate of 324 million by U.S. Census Bureau. Environmental Expenditures The U.S. oil and natural gas industry has invested an estimated $339 billion since 990 toward improving the environmental performance of its products, facilities and operations $,045 for every man, woman and child in the United States. In 206 alone, API estimates that approximately $7. billion was spent on the environment; $5.3 billion was spent implementing new technologies, creating cleaner fuels and funding ongoing environmental initiatives. An additional $.7 billion went toward research and development, corporate environmental programs and spill remediation efforts. 30% of the industry s environmental expenditures in 206 targeted air pollution abatement; meeting or surpassing the requirements of the 990 Clean Air Act. Refineries across the nation implemented new processes designed to dramatically reduce the presence of sulfur in gasoline and diesel years ahead of federal requirement to do so.

Investment Priorities by Industry Sector The U.S. oil and natural gas industry s business operations are divided into four major sectors: exploration and production, refining, transportation, and marketing. Following is a brief overview of how environmental expenditures have been allocated across these sectors: Exploration and Production: The U.S. is the number one producer of oil and natural gas in the world, with approximately 888,752 2 producing oil and natural gas wells operating onshore and approximately 3,67 3 oil and natural gas platforms operating offshore in U.S. state and federal waters. These wells produce approximately 2.4 billion 4 barrels of oil and almost 32.6 trillion 5 cubic feet of natural gas annually. : The nation s 4 refineries, which process more than 8 million 6 barrels of crude oil every day, are constantly upgrading their operations to produce ever-cleaner fuels and meet the growing variety of state and local mandates for fuel formulation. : Petroleum products move from well to refinery to market through a network of tanker ships, pipelines, barges, and tanker trucks. Among the industry s key environmental investments in this segment: By 206, all tankers and barges operating in U.S. waters will feature double hulls, which help to contain cargo and prevent spills in the event of a collision or grounding. : According to the National Association of Convenience Stores (NACS), there are more than 20 thousand convenience stores selling motor fuels across the United States. In recent years, the petroleum industry has made a major investment to upgrade underground storage tanks and install leak detection devices, helping to protect communities and groundwater supplies. : Non-sector specific corporate programs such as planting trees or junking old cars. Also includes Research & Development expenditures to reduce pollution and emissions. 2 Website link: http://info.drillinginfo.com 3 Bureau of Ocean Management - https://www.data.boem.gov/leasing/offshorestatsbywd/default.aspx 4 U.S. EIA, Monthly Energy Review October 207, Table 3. 5 U.S. EIA, Monthly Energy Review October 207, Table 4. 6 U.S. EIA, Number and Capacity of Petroleum Refineries - https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/pet_pnp_cap_a_(na)_8d0_bpcd_a.htm Copyright 208 API, all rights reserved. 2

Historically, a majority of the investments have focused on achieving reductions in airborne emissions. Investment Priorities by Emissions Medium The following charts illustrate how the U.S. oil and natural gas industry s environmental expenditures have been targeted toward reducing emissions by air, water, and land. Historically, a majority of the investments have focused on achieving reductions in airborne emissions. The emphasis on air pollution control is driven by the requirements of the 990 Clean Air Act Amendments and subsequent regulations to reduce emissions from so-called stationary sources (industrial facilities such as refineries) and mobile sources (cars, trucks, etc.). Federal and state environmental programs aimed at reducing carbon monoxide, smog, and air toxics require the sale of oxygenated, reformulated, and lowvolatility (evaporates more slowly) gasolines in certain parts of the country. The exact formulations required vary from one jurisdiction to the next, so the petroleum industry must modify its processes accordingly. These reformulated fuels often cost more to produce than conventional gasoline.

Technical Notes API s environmental expenditures survey is sent to a stratified sample of the industry: all large and mid-size companies, plus a randomly selected group of smaller companies. Each year since 990, the survey has been mailed to about 800 companies. In 206, the data used to complete the survey represent a large share from 35 percent to 67 percent of the variables used to estimate expenditures for the entire industry (see Table 5). To estimate expenditures for the industry as a whole, API used regression and ratio analysis. Different variables were used for different parts of the industry: upstream revenues for exploration and production, trunkline miles for transportation, refinery capacity for refining, and gasoline sales for marketing. To estimate industry-wide expenditures for research and development and corporate programs, API used a combination of these variables. API s estimates may differ from the results that would have been obtained if the entire industry, or a different group of companies, had participated in the survey. Table 6 gives the margin of error representing the 95-percent confidence interval for API s estimates the range in which the actual value almost certainly lies. Thus, there is a 95 percent probability that the true amount for the industry is within that range. API estimated that -- excluding remediation and spills -- the entire industry s environmental expenditures were $6.0 billion in 206 (the remaining portion of the $7. billion remediation and spills expenditures is not an industry estimate but only the amounts reported by the survey respondents). The margin of error for this estimate is plus or minus 9.2 percent. This means that API estimates with 95-percent certainty that expenditures were between $4.6 billion and $7.5 billion. The model used to estimate these expenditures and margins of error assumes perfect accuracy in company responses. However, as with any survey, practical difficulties can also influence results and introduce errors. Many companies do not track environmental spending separately. s categorize environmental spending differently from the survey. Consequently, some companies are only able to provide a best estimate of what they spend. As a result, although API s estimates are based on imperfect data, they are the most extensive data available to the public. Copyright 208 API, all rights reserved. 27

Definitions Air pollution: Substances emitted into open air that are targeted for reduction by the Clean Air Act and other environmental laws for example, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, lead, nitrogen oxides, particulates, and sulfur dioxide. Capital expenditures: Costs incurred by ongoing activities to comply with environmental regulations and to minimize or treat output streams. Examples include wastewater treatment plants, stack scrubbers, modifications or additions to plants due to existing or pending laws or regulations, smoke control, groundwater recovery control, dust suppression systems, or other factors that positively influence the environment. Corporate programs: Activities of company environmental departments. Also, voluntary efforts to improve environmental quality such as supporting environmental education programs; collecting used oil; buying and destroying older, high-polluting cars; and providing free engine tune-ups. Environmental expenditures: Costs incurred that relate to the prevention, control, abatement, or elimination of environmental pollution. Expenditures are the incremental costs reported by a unit in a facility that would not have been incurred if environmental issues had not been considered. Low-sulfur gasoline: A specially formulated gasoline that enables the use of advanced catalytic emissions controls on gasoline-powered vehicles, primarily to reduce hydrocarbon, particulate, and nitrogen oxides emissions. Low-sulfur / Ultra-low-sulfur diesel fuel: A specially formulated diesel fuel that enables the use of advanced catalytic emissions controls, primarily to reduce particulate and nitrogen oxides emissions from diesel-powered engines. Ongoing activities: Capital, operating, maintenance, and administrative expenses associated with routine operating practices in each sector (E&P,,, and ) of the industry. media: Recurring activities that are not reported under air, water, or wastes for example, removing abandoned production platforms, and supporting oil spill cooperatives. Reformulated gasoline (RFG): A specially blended, cleaner-burning gasoline designed to improve air quality by reducing urban smog. It reduces carbon monoxide and toxic emissions as well as smog-forming emissions. It has less benzene and no heavy metals. RFG is available in all octane grades, and its use is currently required in about onequarter of the nation (see Figure 8). Remediation: Cleaning up soil and groundwater contamination. Such contamination is caused by leaks from storage tanks, pipelines, pits, settlement ponds, or underground piping. Contamination may also have resulted from practices allowed in the past, but no longer permitted. Remediation costs, because of their unique nature, cannot be extrapolated to the entire industry. Remediation costs shown in this report are only those reported by survey respondents. Research and development: Investigating new technologies to limit or reduce emissions or pollution from products and operations for example, research leading to the development and continuing improvement in reformulated gasoline and diesel fuel. Spills: Sudden releases of crude oil or petroleum products caused by malfunctions or accidents. Spills costs shown in this report are only those reported by survey respondents, do not include fines and penalties, and are not extrapolated to the entire industry. Waste management: Collecting, treating, recycling, and disposing of solid or contained wastes. It includes efforts to prevent pollution by reducing waste at the source. Water pollution: Substances discharged into bodies of water targeted by the Clean Water Act and other environmental laws for example, oils, metals, solids, and toxic chemicals.
