EOG Resources Announces Third Quarter 2016 Results; Raises 2020 Outlook and More Than Doubles Permian Basin Net Resource Potential

HOUSTON, Nov. 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

  • Increases 2020 Crude Oil Production CAGR Outlook to 15 to 25 Percent
  • Expands Delaware Basin Net Resource Potential from 2.35 to 6.0 BnBoe (includes Assets from Recent Yates Transaction)
  • Exceeds U.S. Production Targets
  • Raises 2016 U.S. Crude Oil Production Guidance
  • Updates Year-to-Date Proceeds from Asset Sales to $625 Million

EOG Resources, Inc. (NYSE: EOG) today reported a third quarter 2016 net loss of $190.0 million, or $0.35 per share. This compares to a third quarter 2015 net loss of $4.1 billion, or $7.47 per share. 

Adjusted non-GAAP net loss for the third quarter 2016 was $220.8 million, or $0.40 per share, compared to adjusted non-GAAP net income of $13.5 million, or $0.02 per share, for the same prior year period.  Adjusted non-GAAP net income (loss) is calculated by matching hedge realizations to settlement months and making certain other adjustments in order to exclude non-recurring and certain other items.  For a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures, please refer to the attached tables.

Lower crude oil and natural gas prices more than offset significant well productivity improvements and lease and well cost reductions, resulting in decreases in adjusted non-GAAP net income, discretionary cash flow and EBITDAX during the third quarter 2016 compared to the third quarter 2015.  For a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures, please refer to the attached tables.

Operational Highlights
U.S. crude oil volumes of 275,700 barrels of oil per day (Bopd) in the third quarter 2016 exceeded the midpoint of the company's guidance by 3 percent. Compared to the same prior year period, lease and well expenses decreased 18 percent on a per-unit basis.

In the third quarter 2016, total crude oil production increased 1 percent while exploration and development expenditures (excluding property acquisitions) decreased 32 percent, compared to the same period last year.  Natural gas liquids production increased 5 percent, while total natural gas production for the third quarter 2016 decreased 10 percent versus the same prior year period. 

"Even in a low commodity price environment, 2016 is proving to be a breakout year for EOG with record well productivity, sustainable cost reductions and organic growth in all our core plays, coupled with a historic transaction that adds substantial high-return growth potential," said William R. "Bill" Thomas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  "EOG's third quarter accomplishments reflect the hard work and ingenuity of our great employees and our unique culture."

2020 Crude Oil Production Outlook and 2016 Capital Plan Update
As a result of continued improvements in capital efficiency which have been augmented by the Yates transaction, EOG is increasing its crude oil organic production growth outlook through 2020.  The long term outlook includes growth from key areas such as the Eagle Ford, Delaware Basin, Rockies and the Bakken.  In addition to the growth illustrated in the outlook, the company continues to evaluate high-quality emerging plays through its ongoing exploration efforts.

Assuming balanced spending including dividend payments and a flat $50 West Texas Intermediate crude oil (WTI) price, EOG now expects 15 percent compound annual crude oil production growth through 2020.  If the assumed WTI price is increased to $60, EOG would expect 25 percent compound annual crude oil production growth through 2020.  This reflects an increase from the company's prior outlook of 10 to 20 percent growth at $50 to $60 WTI. 

"EOG's future has never been brighter, and we are already in a position to make a material improvement to the long-term outlook we provided last quarter," Thomas said.  "The company-wide premium drilling strategy and the recently closed Yates transaction are significantly boosting capital efficiency and enabling us to extend our lead in unconventional resource productivity."

For 2016, EOG is increasing its capital spending guidance range by $200 million to $2.6 to $2.8 billion, excluding acquisitions.  The spending increase will be directed toward well completions, which are now targeted to increase from the initial plan of 270 and the prior revised forecast of 350 to 450 net wells in 2016.  Drilling productivity continues to improve, and the company now expects to drill 290 net wells, 40 more than its prior forecast and 90 more than its original 2016 plans.

Delaware Basin
EOG increased its Delaware Basin net resource potential by 155 percent to 6.0 billion barrels of oil equivalent (BnBoe) in the third quarter 2016 (inclusive of the recent Yates transaction).  Delaware Basin net well locations increased by 27 percent to 6,330.  The average planned lateral length for these locations increased from 4,500 feet to over 7,000 feet. 

"With the Yates transaction, EOG's Delaware Basin position now exceeds 400,000 net acres in the core window of this world-class play," Thomas said.  "Our technical and operational advances applied to the combined assets have produced a major increase in EOG's Delaware Basin potential.   As we continue to make advances in cost management and technology, we believe our resource potential over time will continue to increase in both size and quality."

In the Delaware Basin Wolfcamp, EOG increased its net resource potential from 1.3 BnBoe to 2.9 BnBoe and net well locations from 2,130 to 2,660.  For the Delaware Basin Wolfcamp oil play, EOG's average gross reserves per well increased to 1,330 thousand barrels of crude oil equivalent (MBoe) from 750 MBoe, while average gross reserves per well increased to 1,550 MBoe from 900 MBoe in the combo portion of the play.

For the Delaware Basin Second Bone Spring, EOG increased its net resource potential from 0.5 BnBoe to 1.4 BnBoe and net well locations from 1,250 to 1,870.  Average gross reserves per well increased to 950 MBoe from 500 MBoe.

EOG also increased its Delaware Basin Leonard net resource potential from 0.6 BnBoe to 1.7 BnBoe and net well locations from 1,600 to 1,800.  Average gross reserves per well increased to 1,175 MBoe from 500 MBoe.

In the third quarter 2016, EOG completed 22 wells in the Delaware Basin Wolfcamp with an average treated lateral length of 4,800 feet per well and an average 30-day initial production rate per well of 2,350 barrels of oil equivalent per day (Boed), or 1,675 Bopd, 275 barrels per day (Bpd) of natural gas liquids (NGLs) and 2.4 million cubic feet per day (MMcfd) of natural gas.  In the Delaware Basin Second Bone Spring, EOG completed four wells in the third quarter with an average treated lateral length of 4,600 feet per well and an average 30-day initial production rate per well of 1,240 Boed, or 940 Bopd, 120 Bpd of NGLs and 1.1 MMcfd of natural gas. 

South Texas Eagle Ford
EOG's oil-rich South Texas Eagle Ford acreage continued to deliver exceptional results in the third quarter 2016 and was once again the largest contributor to EOG's U.S. crude oil production. 

In the third quarter, EOG completed 47 wells in the Eagle Ford with an average treated lateral length of 5,700 feet per well and an average 30-day initial production rate per well of 1,825 Boed, or 1,425 Bopd, 190 Bpd of NGLs and 1.3 MMcfd of natural gas.

Rockies and the Bakken
In the third quarter, EOG completed nine wells in the Powder River Basin with an average 30-day initial production rate per well of 1,560 Boed, or 840 Bopd, 245 Bpd of NGLs and 2.8 MMcfd of natural gas.

In the DJ Basin Codell in Wyoming, EOG completed five wells in the third quarter with an average 30-day initial production rate per well of 720 Boed, or 610 Bopd, 70 Bpd of NGLs and 0.3 MMcfd of natural gas.  

In the North Dakota Bakken, EOG completed 13 wells in the third quarter with an average 30-day initial production rate per well of 850 Boed, or 763 Bopd, 45 Bpd of NGLs and 0.3 MMcfd of natural gas.

For the period November 1 through December 31, 2016, EOG has crude oil financial price collar contracts in place for 70,000 Bopd at an average ceiling price of $54.25 per barrel and an average floor price of $45.00 per barrel. 

For the period March 1 through November 30, 2017, EOG has natural gas financial price swap contracts in place for 30,000 million British thermal units (MMBtu) per day at a weighted average price of $3.10 per MMBtu.  

For the period March 1 through November 30, 2017, EOG sold natural gas call option contracts for 213,750 MMBtu per day at an average strike price of $3.44 per MMBtu.  For the period March 1 through November 30, 2018, EOG sold natural gas call option contracts for 120,000 MMBtu per day at an average strike price of $3.38 per MMBtu.

For the period March 1 through November 30, 2017, EOG purchased natural gas put option contracts for 171,000 MMBtu per day at an average strike price of $2.92 per MMBtu.  For the period March 1 through November 30, 2018, EOG purchased natural gas put option contracts for 96,000 MMBtu per day at an average strike price of $2.94 per MMBtu.

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events anticipated by EOG's forward-looking statements may not occur, and, if any of such events do, we may not have anticipated the timing of their occurrence or the duration and extent of their impact on our actual results.  Accordingly, you should not place any undue reliance on any of EOG's forward-looking statements. EOG's forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and EOG undertakes no obligation, other than as required by applicable law, to update or revise its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events, anticipated or unanticipated circumstances or otherwise.

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose not only "proved" reserves (i.e., quantities of oil and gas that are estimated to be recoverable with a high degree of confidence), but also "probable" reserves (i.e., quantities of oil and gas that are as likely as not to be recovered) as well as "possible" reserves (i.e., additional quantities of oil and gas that might be recovered, but with a lower probability than probable reserves).  Statements of reserves are only estimates and may not correspond to the ultimate quantities of oil and gas recovered. Any reserve estimates provided in this press release that are not specifically designated as being estimates of proved reserves may include "potential" reserves and/or other estimated reserves not necessarily calculated in accordance with, or contemplated by, the SEC's latest reserve reporting guidelines.  Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in EOG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, available from EOG at P.O.

Quantitative Reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) (Non-GAAP)

to Net Loss (GAAP)

(Unaudited; in thousands, except per share data)

                               
                               

The following chart adjusts the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 reported Net Loss (GAAP) to reflect actual net cash received from (payments for) settlements of commodity derivative contracts by eliminating the unrealized mark-to-market (gains) losses from these transactions, to eliminate the net (gains) losses on asset dispositions in 2016 and 2015, to eliminate the impact of the Texas margin tax rate reduction in 2015, to add back severance costs associated with EOG's North American operations in 2015, to eliminate the impact of the Trinidad tax settlement in 2016, to add back certain voluntary retirement expense in 2016, to add back impairment charges related to certain of EOG's assets in 2016 and 2015, and to add back acquisition costs related to the Yates transaction in 2016.  EOG believes this presentation may be useful to investors who follow the practice of some industry analysts who adjust reported company earnings to match hedge realizations to production settlement months and make certain other adjustments to exclude non-recurring and certain other items.  EOG management uses this information for purposes of comparing its financial performance with the financial performance of other companies in the industry.

Dry Hole Costs, Impairments and Additional Items (Adjusted EBITDAX)

 (Non-GAAP) to Net Loss (GAAP)

(Unaudited; in thousands)

                       

The following chart adjusts the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 reported Net Loss (GAAP) to Earnings Before Interest Expense, Income Taxes, Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization, Exploration Costs, Dry Hole Costs and Impairments (EBITDAX) (Non-GAAP) and further adjusts such amount to reflect actual net cash received from (payments for) settlements of commodity derivative contracts by eliminating the unrealized mark-to-market (MTM) (gains) losses from these transactions and to eliminate the net (gains) losses on asset dispositions.  EOG believes this presentation may be useful to investors who follow the practice of some industry analysts who adjust reported Net Income (Loss) (GAAP) to add back Interest Expense, Income Taxes (Income Tax Benefit), Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization, Exploration Costs, Dry Hole Costs and Impairments and further adjust such amount to match realizations to production settlement months and make certain other adjustments to exclude non-recurring and certain other items.  EOG management uses this information for purposes of comparing its financial performance with the financial performance of other companies in the industry.

EOG has entered into crude oil collar contracts, which establish ceiling and floor prices for the sale of notional volumes of crude oil as specified in the collar contracts.  The collars require that EOG pay the difference between the ceiling price and the average NYMEX West Texas Intermediate crude oil price for the contract month (Index Price) in the event the Index Price is above the ceiling price.  The collars grant EOG the right to receive the difference between the floor price and the Index Price in the event the Index Price is below the floor price.  Presented below is a comprehensive summary of EOG's crude oil collar contracts through November 3, 2016, with notional volumes expressed in Bbld and prices expressed in $/Bbl.

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, complete and equip 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

 
 

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
