EOG Resources Reports Second Quarter 2009 Results

HOUSTON, Aug. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- EOG Resources, Inc. (NYSE: EOG) (EOG) today reported its second quarter 2009 operating and financial results. For the second quarter, EOG reported a net loss available to common stockholders of $16.7 million, or $0.07 per share. This compares to second quarter 2008 net income available to common stockholders of $178.2 million, or $0.71 per share.

 

The results for the second quarter 2009 included a previously disclosed $33.6 million ($21.6 million after tax, or $0.09 per share) net gain on the mark-to-market of financial commodity transactions. During the quarter, the net cash inflow related to financial commodity contracts was $344.8 million ($221.9 million after tax, or $0.89 per share). Consistent with some analysts' practice of matching realizations to settlement months, adjusted non-GAAP net income available to common stockholders for the quarter was $183.6 million, or $0.73 per share. Adjusted non-GAAP net income available to common stockholders for the second quarter 2008 was $631.7 million, or $2.52 per share. (Please refer to the attached tables for the reconciliation of adjusted non-GAAP net income available to common stockholders to GAAP net income (loss) available to common stockholders.)

 

Operational Highlights and Targets

EOG continues to adapt and apply its horizontal gas drilling and completion expertise to develop unconventional crude oil and liquids rich reservoirs. Positive drilling results were reported recently from its three primary areas of focus in North America - the Fort Worth Barnett Combo, North Dakota Bakken and Manitoba Waskada.

 

    --  In the Fort Worth Barnett Combo Play where drilling operations are
        planned in multi-well packages to maximize resource potential, three
        Bowen wells, the A#1H, A#2H and B#1H, began sales at individual
        production rates ranging from 150 to 400 barrels of oil per day (Bopd)
        with 1.2 to 1.6 million cubic feet per day (MMcfd) of liquids rich
        natural gas.  EOG has 100 percent working interest in the wells.  The
        Seibold Unit #3H and #4H wells were completed at gross rates of 500 Bopd
        with 1.8 MMcfd and 550 Bopd with 1.2 MMcfd, respectively.  EOG has 96
        percent working interest in the wells.  The Tunnicliff B#1H and B#2H
        were also brought to sales at 400 Bopd each with 3.0 and 1.8 MMcfd,
        respectively.  EOG has 100 percent working interest in the wells.  While
        EOG is currently operating a four-rig drilling program, it plans to
        increase its activity level to seven rigs later in the year.  Subsequent
        to the second quarter, EOG completed the acquisition of 25,000 net
        unproved acres and approximately 2,000 net barrels of oil equivalents
        per day of production in Montague and Cooke Counties for $134 million,
        comprised of cash and shares of EOG common stock.  EOG currently holds
        approximately 194,000 net acres in Montague and Cooke Counties.
    --  With six rigs operating across its 500,000 total net acreage position in
        the North Dakota Bakken, EOG is drilling in both the Core and Lite
        areas.  With initial production rates of 1,700 and 1,600 Bopd,
        respectively, the Austin #17-20H and #20-29H are characteristic of
        previously completed Bakken Core wells.  EOG has 63 and 75 percent
        working interest in the wells, respectively.  EOG further extended the
        productive limits of its acreage beyond the Core area with the Ross
        #7-17H and Sidonia #1-06H.  Drilled in the Bakken Lite, the wells began
        initial production at 500 and 700 Bopd, respectively.  EOG has 100 and
        44 percent working interest in these wells, respectively.  In total, EOG
        plans to drill 17 gross wells in the Bakken Lite area during 2009 and an
        additional 58 gross wells in the Bakken Core.

    --  In Manitoba, EOG reported excellent well results from the development of
        its Waskada Oil Field.  Thirteen wells were completed with average peak
        month production rates of approximately 200 Bopd per well.  EOG has 100
        percent working interest in the wells.

 

 

"Through our application of horizontal drilling and completion technology, EOG has developed a solid early mover position in economic crude oil and liquids rich resource plays," said Mark G. Papa, Chairman and CEO. "The results from our exploration efforts in these types of reservoirs clearly position EOG as the dominant player in both the Core and Lite areas of the North Dakota Bakken, as well as in the Fort Worth Barnett Combo and Manitoba's Waskada Field."

 

Reflecting ongoing success from its portfolio of crude oil and liquids rich plays, EOG increased its full year 2009 total company liquids production growth target from 22 to 25 percent and maintained its 20 percent growth target for 2010.

 

EOG has a deep inventory of natural gas prospects and reported excellent drilling results in the United States. With four rigs operating in the Haynesville, EOG reported notable initial production rates from five wells recently completed in DeSoto Parish. The Johnson 6#1 and DN Bell #1 flowed at initial gross production rates of 14.3 and 14.4 MMcfd of natural gas, respectively. EOG has 64 and 100 percent working interest in the wells, respectively. The Thompson 11#1 was completed at a gross rate of 14.9 MMcfd. EOG has 70 percent working interest in the well. The Lafitte 34 #1 and Billingsley 35 #1 began sales at gross rates of 15.7 and 14.6 MMcfd, respectively. EOG has 65 and 63 percent working interest in the wells, respectively.

 

EOG also announced the Conwy crude oil discovery in Block 110/12 off the western coast of the United Kingdom in the East Irish Sea. Drilled to approximately 2,900 feet in June, the well has estimated net recoverable reserves of 11 million barrels of oil that can be developed at attractive economic rates of return. Beginning later this year, EOG plans to drill two additional exploration wells with initial production targeted for early 2012. EOG is the operator and has 100 percent working interest in the block.

 

"Our strong operational results from the quarter are consistent with EOG's corporate strategy - add more crude oil and liquids assets to complement our already strong natural gas portfolio, lead the industry in horizontal completions and maintain a focus on returns," said Papa.

 

 

Third Quarter and Full Year 2009 Forecast

Based on current data, forecast and benchmark commodity pricing information for the third quarter and full year 2009 are included in the accompanying table. EOG continues to target 5.5 percent total company organic production growth in 2009 over 2008, contingent on storage limitations in the North American natural gas market and the impact on natural gas prices.

    --  the ability of EOG's customers and other contractual counterparties
        to satisfy their obligations to EOG and, related thereto, to access the
        credit and capital markets to obtain financing needed to satisfy their
        obligations to EOG;
    --  EOG's ability to access the commercial paper market and other
        credit and capital markets to obtain financing on terms it deems
        acceptable, if at all;
    --  the accuracy of reserve estimates, which by their nature involve the
        exercise of professional judgment and may therefore be imprecise;
    --  the timing and extent of changes in foreign currency exchange rates,
        interest rates, inflation rates, global and domestic financial market
        conditions and global and domestic general economic conditions;

    The following chart adjusts three-month and six-month periods ended June
    30, 2009 and 2008 reported Net Income (Loss) Available to Common
    Stockholders (GAAP) to reflect actual net cash realized from financial
    commodity price transactions by eliminating the unrealized mark-to-market
    (gains) losses from these transactions and to eliminate the gain on the
    sale of EOG's Appalachian assets in the first quarter of 2008.  EOG
    believes this presentation may be useful to investors who follow the
    practice of some industry analysts who adjust reported company earnings to
    match realizations to production settlement months and make certain other
    adjustments to exclude one-time items.  EOG management uses this
    information for comparative purposes within the industry.
