EOG Resources Reports First Quarter 2015 Results and Provides Operational Update

HOUSTON, May 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

  • Remains on Track to Achieve 40 Percent Year-over-Year Capital Expenditure Decrease
  • Directs 85 Percent of Capital to High-Return Eagle Ford, Delaware Basin and Bakken Plays
  • Reduces Well Costs Below 2015 Plan Levels
  • Improves Well Productivity through Integrated Completions Technology
  • Generates Better-than-Expected Well Results and Exceeds First Quarter 2015 Production Guidance
  • Positions Itself to Resume Strong Growth as Prices Improve

 EOG Resources, Inc. (NYSE: EOG) (EOG) today reported a first quarter 2015 net loss of $169.7 million, or $0.31 per share. This compares to first quarter 2014 net income of $660.9 million, or $1.21 per share.

Adjusted non-GAAP net income for the first quarter 2015 was $16.8 million, or $0.03 per share, compared to the same prior year period adjusted non-GAAP net income of $767.7 million, or $1.40 per share.  Adjusted non-GAAP net income is calculated by matching realizations to settlement months and making certain other adjustments in order to exclude one-time items.  (Please refer to the attached tables for the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures.)

EOG's first quarter 2015 financial results were significantly impacted by low commodity prices. Increased liquids production volumes, higher cash settlements from commodity derivative contracts and lower operating expenses were more than offset by lower commodity price realizations, resulting in decreases to adjusted non-GAAP net income, discretionary cash flow and EBITDAX during the first quarter 2015 compared to the first quarter 2014. (Please refer to the attached tables for the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures.)

Operational Highlights

Excluding production from EOG's Canadian operations, which were sold in the fourth quarter 2014, crude oil and condensate production increased 16 percent compared to the same prior year period.  Overall total company production, excluding the divested Canadian operations, increased eight percent compared to first quarter 2014.  The South Texas Eagle Ford and Delaware Basin plays drove production gains for the quarter. 

EOG will direct 85 percent of its 2015 capital spending to its top oil plays – the South Texas Eagle Ford, the Delaware Basin in New Mexico and Texas, and the Bakken in North Dakota. In the first quarter 2015, the company continued to make significant improvements in well productivity in these plays through integrated completions technology.  EOG is also making substantial progress in reducing well and operating costs through operational efficiencies and service cost reductions. The combination of increased well productivity and lower costs will substantially improve EOG's capital returns.

2015 Capital Plan Update

EOG's capital spending plan remains on schedule to achieve a 40 percent year-over-year decrease in 2015. As previously stated, the company has no interest in accelerating oil production at the bottom of the commodity cycle. EOG's primary goal for 2015 is to position the company to resume strong oil growth when oil prices improve. Therefore, the company chose to defer a significant number of well completions.  By deferring completions until prices improve, EOG increases capital returns and builds an inventory of uncompleted wells to prepare for strong growth in a better price environment. If prices continue to improve, EOG will begin to increase well completions in the third quarter. This will produce a "U" shaped production profile in 2015. Second and third quarter production will be the low point for the year.  Fourth quarter growth will build momentum heading into 2016.  If oil prices recover and stabilize at the $65 level, EOG is prepared to resume strong double-digit oil growth in 2016 with balanced capital spending and discretionary cash flow. 

"EOG is on track to deliver a disciplined 2015 capital program that is focused on achieving strong returns on capital invested. We continue to adjust to the lower oil price environment by reducing well costs and operating expenses and by making significant well productivity improvements through technology advancements," said William R. "Bill" Thomas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "EOG is focused on creating long-term shareholder value through disciplined, high-return investments. We are resetting the bar to be successful in a lower commodity price environment."

South Texas Eagle Ford

Building on initial positive tests in 2014, high-density completions are planned for about 95 percent of EOG's Eagle Ford wells in 2015. The company's integrated completions process combines high-density completion techniques with tailored individual well designs to improve well productivity and lower decline rates. In addition, with significantly fewer lease retention wells in 2015, EOG is able to organize its drilling program to maximize efficiencies and reduce well costs. These enhancements further the resiliency of the leading North American crude oil play in a low oil price environment.  

During the first quarter 2015, EOG continued to achieve strong well results throughout the company's industry-leading 561,000 net acre position in the Eagle Ford oil window. In the eastern Eagle Ford, the Lefevre Unit 14H and 12H in Gonzales County had initial production rates of 3,550 and 2,890 barrels of oil per day (Bopd), 560 and 440 barrels per day (Bpd) of natural gas liquids (NGLs), and 3.9 and 3.1 million cubic feet per day (MMcfd) of natural gas, respectively.  In LaSalle County in the western Eagle Ford, a five-well pattern on the Naylor Jones Unit 39 (1H and 2H) and Unit 49 (1H, 2H and 3H) leases began production with average initial rates per well of 2,550 Bopd, plus 280 Bpd of NGLs and 1.4 MMcfd of natural gas. In McMullen County, the Bilbo Unit 1H and 2H averaged initial production rates of 2,660 Bopd, 230 Bpd of NGLs and 1.2 MMcfd of natural gas.

Delaware Basin

In the Delaware Basin, EOG expanded its activity level and continued to make advancements in well productivity and cost reduction.

EOG's Delaware Basin activity during the first quarter was focused in the Second Bone Spring Sand play.  After drilling three excellent wells in 2014, EOG stepped up its drilling pace and began shifting to development mode across the company's 90,000 net acre position.  In Lea County, N.M., EOG completed the Brown Bear 36 State #502H with an initial production rate of 1,700 Bopd, 185 Bpd of NGLs and 1.4 MMcfd of natural gas. EOG continues to test multiple zones and various well spacing patterns in the Second Bone Spring Sand.

EOG continued to test the oil window of the Delaware Basin Wolfcamp.  The recently completed Brown Bear 36 State #701H in Lea County, N.M., had an initial production rate of 2,165 Bopd, 360 Bpd of NGLs and 2.3 MMcfd of natural gas. 

In the Leonard Shale, EOG completed the Excelsior 12 #3H through #6H, in Loving County, Texas, which had average initial production rates per well of 1,020 Bopd, 180 Bpd of NGLs and 1.0 MMcfd of natural gas.  This four-well pattern tested 300-foot well spacing.

North Dakota Bakken and Rockies Plays

In the first quarter 2015, EOG focused activity on its Parshall Core acreage in the North Dakota Bakken where 500-foot spacing results were very encouraging.  Operational improvements continue to generate efficiency gains and lower well costs.  Average well costs in the first quarter were down 14 percent from 2014 levels. 

First quarter 2015 results included a five-well pattern in the Parshall area (Parshall 39-1608H, 58-1608H, 59-1608H, 147-1608H and 151-1608H), which averaged initial production rates per well of 1,235 Bopd, 110 Bpd of NGLs and 0.5 MMcfd of natural gas. Additionally, EOG completed a three-well pattern (Parshall 42-2117H, 43-2117H and 67-2117H), which had initial production rates per well that averaged 1,345 Bopd, 110 Bpd of NGLs and 0.5 MMcfd of natural gas.

In the DJ and Powder River Basins, EOG is focused on target selection and operational efficiencies. Both of these proven plays continue to generate strong results as evidenced by recent completions. In the DJ Basin, two first quarter Codell wells, the Jubilee 580-1720H and the Jubilee 582-0805H, had initial flow rates of 1,005 and 1,125 Bopd, 80 and 145 Bpd of NGLs and 0.3 and 0.5 MMcfd of natural gas, respectively. In the Powder River Basin, the Flatbow 13-13H was completed in the Turner with initial production of 860 Bopd, 70 Bpd of NGLs and 0.8 MMcfd of natural gas.

Hedging Activity

For the period May 1 through June 30, 2015, EOG has crude oil financial price swap contracts in place for 47,000 Bopd at a weighted average price of $91.22 per barrel. For the period July 1 through December 31, 2015, EOG has crude oil financial price swap contracts in place for 10,000 Bopd at a weighted average price of $89.98 per barrel, excluding unexercised options.

During the first quarter, EOG increased its natural gas hedges and now has hedges in place for approximately 22 percent of its North American natural gas production for the remainder of 2015.  For the period June 1 through December 31, 2015, EOG has natural gas financial price swap contracts in place for approximately 203,500 million British thermal units per day at a weighted average price of $4.31 per million British thermal units, excluding unexercised options. (For a comprehensive summary of crude oil and natural gas derivative contracts, please refer to the attached tables.)            

Cash Flow and Capital Structure

At March 31, 2015, EOG's total debt outstanding was $6.9 billion for a debt-to-total capitalization ratio of 28 percent. Taking into account cash on the balance sheet of $2.1 billion at March 31, EOG's net debt was $4.8 billion for a net debt-to-total capitalization ratio of 21 percent. (Please refer to the attached tables for the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures.)

During the first quarter 2015, EOG's combined expenditures for exploration, development, and other property, plant and equipment exceeded discretionary cash flow by $486 million due to low commodity prices and service contract commitments.  However, assuming oil prices remain near recent levels for the final three quarters of 2015, EOG expects balanced discretionary cash flow and capital spending for the remainder of the year.

"EOG is committed to maintaining a strong balance sheet and disciplined capital program. As expected, our first quarter capital spending was higher than levels planned for subsequent quarters. For the remainder of the year, with cost reductions and service contract roll-offs, we have the flexibility to adjust and control spending as needed," Thomas said.  "We believe current oil prices will continue to drive supply and demand changes, and the global oil markets will rebalance. Meanwhile, we are improving our fundamentals rapidly and expect to emerge from this down cycle in a better position to deliver strong growth and return on capital employed."

Direct After-Tax Rate of Return (ATROR)

 

The calculation of our direct after-tax rate of return (ATROR) with respect to our capital expenditure program for a particular play or well is based on the estimated proved reserves ("net" to EOG's interest) for all wells in such play or such well (as the case may be), the estimated net present value (NPV) of the future net cash flows from such reserves (for which we utilize certain assumptions regarding future commodity prices and operating costs) and our direct net costs incurred in drilling or acquiring (as the case may be) such wells or well (as the case may be).  As such, our direct ATROR with respect to our capital expenditures for a particular play or well cannot be calculated from our consolidated financial statements. 

 
 

Direct ATROR

Based on Cash Flow and Time Value of Money

  - Estimated future commodity prices and operating costs

  - Costs incurred to drill and complete a well, including facilities

Excludes Indirect Capital

  - Gathering and Processing and other Midstream

  - Land, Seismic, Geological and Geophysical

 

Payback ~12 Months on 100% Direct ATROR Wells

First Five Years ~1/2 Estimated Ultimate Recovery Produced but ~3/4 of NPV Captured

ATROR of Drilling Program Has Been Rising

 
 

Return on Equity / Return on Capital Employed 

Based on GAAP Accrual Accounting

Includes All Indirect Capital and Growth Capital for Infrastructure

  - Eagle Ford, Bakken, Permian Facilities

  - Gathering and Processing

Includes Legacy Gas Capital and Capital from Mature Wells

Has Been Increasing Due to Increasing Direct ATROR of Drilling Program
