Estuary Airport Hub Project

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Calls for a new airport for London and the UK have been heard for decades. Each time a proposal has
been made alternative measures to avoid building an airport in the London Thames estuary have
been sought. Now however, cries to have this airport structure in the Thames have been voiced ever
more loudly by London mayor Boris Johnson, Lord Foster and a few others.
The main issue of contention with the project has been the sketchy financials along with
environmental concerns. These environmental concerns despite having been echoed by many a
British politician pale in comparison to the financiability and logistical matter. As will be noted in this
document in quotes and extracts from BBC articles, Government literature and consultancy reports
by economist firms among others, presently this project is just too risky and lacks detail in areas
where necessary.
A report prepared for the House of Commons Transport Select Committee deals a hugeblow to the project, claiming it would be a risky investment.
It says that because the value of the investment is significantly negative an investor wouldbe likely not to touch the project.
A public subsidy of 10-30 billion would be needed to get the airport built, the report by
economics consultancy Oxera suggests.
The reports authors have calculated the value of a new airport at 15.6 billion bycalculating revenues from passenger charges and taking out operating costs.
In todays money it would have costs of 43.7 billion, leaving a significant gap that would
need to be made up.
If Heathrow were to close as the result of a Thames Estuary airport being built, the final
compensation bill could be as high as 20 billion.
Thomas of Foster + Partners, the architects behind plans for the worlds biggest airport on
the Isle of Grain, will answer questions on the proposal, which has an estimated cost of 50
billion.1

PART A
1. Overview
In assessing whether a new hub airport would be commercially feasible, the first deliberation is the
extent of future demand from passengers and freight. Forecasts estimate the revenue that could be
earned from a new airport, and hence the expected cash flows. The UK Department for Transport
(DfT) published official projections in January 2013 of constrained and unconstrained future UK
aviation demand.

As seen above forecasts for traffic have been lowered substantially since 2007.
Also it is worth noting that on top of providing services to presently constrained traffic, if all traffic
that would otherwise have used Heathrow Airport were to be moved to a new airport, there would be
an additional 85m passengers per annum (mppa) available for the new hub in 2050 that is with the
assumption that a 100% transfer, from Heathrow happens.
Economics consultancy firm Oxeras analysis, scenarios where Heathrow closed assume 100% from
Heathrow to the Thames Airport hub, whereas if Heathrow remains open no transfer is assumed.
It is also likely that abstraction from Gatwick and Stansted Airports is a concern, which jointly is
projected to provide 70mppa in 2050, though full abstraction is improbable. It is important to notethat, Oxeras base-case scenario has been to assume that there is no abstraction from these airports
and, in a high-case scenario, that there is abstraction of traffic from full-service carriers at Gatwick
(30%) and Stansted (3%) that will transfer to the new hub. These assumptions should cover the fullrange of likely outcomes, with the outturn level of traffic transfer likely to be somewhere in
between.2

2. COSTS
It is pertinent to note that due to the number of proposal with varying specification (i.e. number of
runways etc) costs estimates vary. Oxera collated cost estimates from a few proposals adjusting for
inflation where necessary as is seam below.
As seen above a new airport in the Thames Estuary would probably cost in the range of 20 billion to
50 billion. The reason for a wide range of cost estimates comes primarily from conflicting estimateswith regard to surface access costs. As most of the proposals outlined are indicative only, it remains
unclear whether this accounts for optimism bias. Repercussions of optimism bias on cost projections
are a great concern as they can result in cost overruns in the order of 50% to 100% for major
infrastructure Projects
Oxeras analysis assumes that a new UK hub airportwould open and be fully functional in
around 2025, which, from the proposals to date, appears to be a reasonable base case,although it is likely that a staged opening would occur in practice.3
An important aspect that most miss to mention and Oxera also noted, was the lack of details on
compensation in the event that Heathrow is closed, this was not addressed in many of the proposals.
With the current value of Heathrows regulatory asset base (RAB) around 13 billion, with pastestimates having suggested that total compensation for the closure of Heathrow could be as high as
20 billion taking into account compensation to airlines, this is a major aspect in regard to the
Thames airport project cost worth noting. The Thames Estuary proposal will not have location
compensation to worry about but there is a prospect for the incurrence of environmental costs as
many have opposed the project on an environmental basis.

3. AIRPORT VALUE
According to Oxera the resulting figure came about by estimating revenues from forecast passengers
with the assumption that each paid the forecast charges net of operating costs. After this, revenues
are then calculated using todays money with a discount factor reflecting the time value of money
between now and the period when the airport is operational. Then result of this calculation is 15.6
billion.

4. AIRPORT COSTUsing data from the same Economic consultancy firm the following was discovered. With use of acomparable basis the calculation takes a cost estimate for a four-runway hub which is slated above
70 billion inclusive of compensation, this cost is then calculated in todays money using a discount
factor. If an assumption of an investment programme over time duration of ten years till 2025, with
compensation after the new airport becomes operational, the resultant cost is 43.7 billion.
5. ACCOUNTING RATE OF RETURN (ARR )This is an appraisal technique that considers a simple estimate of a project's or investment's
profitability, subtracting money invested from returns without regard to interest accrual or
applicable taxes. This method is widely used for investment appraisals and capital
budgeting decisions. How to reach a decision is simple, one easy way is to accept projects with an
accounting rate of return that is higher than the cost of capital and reject those that do not.
With regard to the Thames project using ARR is difficult due to the uncertainty of the financials. Theexpected returns and capital investment required are yet to be determined. However it would be a
more than competent technique for a project of this magnitude.
6. INTERNAL RATE OF RETURN (IRR)
This method of appraisal works along with Net Present Value (NPV) as it is the discount rate at
which the NPV of costs of the investment equals the net present value of the of the investment. Hence
it is a method of capital budgeting which can calculate IRR and compare it with cut off rate for
selecting any project. NPV and IRR have been used together as appraisal tools and given good results.
As far as the Thames Airport project is concerned, after looking at the financial forecasts and in
particular the hugely negative NPV it is my assumption that the IRR is lower than Cost of Capitaltherefore is a bad investment.

7. NPVThis appraisal technique takes into account the present value of net cash inflows generated by aproject including salvage value, if any, less the initial investment on the project. This methods
reliability in capital budgeting is based on accounting for time value of money with the use
discounted cash inflows.
The Net Present Value (NPV) of this project is negative taking into account that subtracting costsfrom the airport value when cost is higher than the airport value renders a negative figure. From a
finance standpoint a based on this NPV value an investor would be unlikely to embark on the
investment. This then implies that the collective investment in a new airport in addition to related
infrastructure is improbable as a commercial investment. However it may still be possible to finance
the projectin the new airport infrastructure of around 20 billion alone, but only through injection
of substantial levels of public subsidy and investment for the surface access and compensation, which
would comprise around 6075% of the total investment cost.4

Cash flow Model
8. PAYBACK PERIOD
This appraisal technique is one of the simplest and takes into account the time in which the initial
cash outflow of an investment is expected to be recovered from the cash inflows generated by the
investment.
According to the House of Commons, The ambitious and wide-ranging set of developments intendedto fix Britains creaking infrastructure would cost in the region of 50 billion (20 billion for the
airport and 30 billion for the other infrastructure improvements), though the authors claimed that if
implemented the plan could generate 150 billion - 35bn from the airport, 35bn from road and
rail; 2bn from environmental management and 75bn from growth in the Thames Hub area.5
The main issue with a lot of contention is the time frame needed to recoup the funding and begin
experiencing profitability here. Giving the planning and construction timetables its highly unlikely anew airport could be operational within 25 years. Given the pressing needs of the UK economy to
meet the current demand for international travel, inaction over this period would be highly
detrimental to recovery and growth.6

3. PURCHASING AND SUPPLY
Purchasing and supply can be defined as the acquisition or rendering of goods, services or works. It is
complimentary that the goods, services or works are appropriate and that they are availed at the best
possible cost, quality, quantity, time, and location. It important to note that Corporations and publicbodies often define processes intended to uphold fair and open competition for their business while
reducing contact to racketeering and conspiracy.
Due to the magnitude of this project the essential success criterion is the well-timed, precise to excellence
and gainful delivery of supplies, systems and amenities. There are many stakeholders, contractors and
suppliers involved in this kind of project, not forgetting consulting firms. Due to this procurement
methodologies and processes are fundamental to ensuring that project resources are delivered as
requisite.

The city of London in 2009 proposed to have the following structure for procurement.
As far as Strategy goes I looked at the Just in time strategy used mostly in Japan and despite it being
comprehensive I was not convinced it would serve this project well. As will be seen below I have a
diagram with a strategy proposed in New South Wales that I believe would be suitable to the Thames
project.

CONCLUSIONS
Based on the appraisal techniques used it is evident that the project leaves a lot of financial
uncertainties. Based on this reason I do not believe it is a wise investment. The NPV and IRR are a big
factor in this realization as they do not project long term financial viability. It is important to also
note that due to the nature of the project size not all areas have been forecast by the office of MayorBoris Johnson. It can be then concluded that there is a lot of optimism bias with little fact to back up.
As far as the contract and tender phases as outlined in the document, it is very important that these
areas be managed closely as improprieties will prove costly not only financially but time wise and
politically as well as this is highly controversial project.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Government regulation to reduce tax improving returns2. Attract investment from development banks that seek returns other than the financial
3. Issuing government guaranteed or backed debt to raise financing changes to the cost structure toreduce cash outflows4. Having supplier credit as it is a good way to improve project performance because one does notpay suppliers immediately freeing up cash for other uses
5. Having strict contract and tender practices that are closely monitored and evaluated6. Having strict in house and outsourced audit systems to reduce improprieties
