(1) The terms 'cash flow' and 'earnings from operations' are non-GAAP measures. Please see the advisories and reconciliations elsewhere in this news release.
'Results for the third quarter are in line with our recent operational update and we continue to build volumes through the fourth quarter,' said John A. Manzoni, President and Chief Executive Officer.
'With growing shale production, the Kitan field startup and a number of platform turnarounds completed in Southeast Asia and the North Sea, production is now expected to increase into the fourth quarter, averaging 425,000 boe/d for 2011. This will equate to growth from ongoing operations of 9% year over year. Apart from some short-term operational issues during the quarter, there were a number of notable successes.
'In North America we continue to ramp up shale activity and are now operating 30 rigs. Our shale volumes have doubled over the past year, and we expect to average 490 mmcfe/d of shale production for 2011.
'Southeast Asia production continues to be very strong, meeting our delivery targets and setting new gas sales records, enabling us to capture strong regional natural gas prices.
'The UK Claymore platform restarted in mid-October, however, North Sea volumes were down during the quarter as a result of turnarounds and safety upgrades.
'We continue to see encouraging signs in our Colombia program. In the foothills region, Equion has drilled two successful development wells, and we are drilling an appraisal well on our Huron discovery. We are also drilling a number of heavy oil wells to follow up on our successful stratigraphic program.
'We have spudded our deepwater exploration well in Indonesia, and have started drilling our first international shale well, in Poland.
'This was a strong financial quarter, with cash flow up 29% and earnings from operations up 38% year over year.
'We will release our 2012 guidance in January, which we expect will reflect increased capital allocation to liquids-rich opportunities and increased focus of our portfolio, including plans for additional non-core asset sales.'

In North America, the company continues to focus on the development of high-quality shale plays in the Eagle Ford, Marcellus and Montney, as well as liquids-rich opportunities within the Canadian conventional portfolio. Capital spending was $629 million during the quarter, of which 80% was related to shale activities.
Shale production doubled year over year and will account for more than half of North American production volumes at year end. In the fourth quarter, Talisman is ramping up shale activity, currently operating 30 rigs, leading to expected shale production of approximately 490 mmcfe/d for 2011, up 125% from 2010.
In the Marcellus, the company brought 34 net wells onstream during the third quarter, and will continue to operate with 11 rigs for the remainder of the year. Talisman expects Marcellus production to average approximately 400 mmcf/d in 2011, which is at the upper end of the target range set at the beginning of the year.
In the Montney, the company has 11 rigs actively drilling in the Farrell Creek area and is on track to meet its full-year production guidance of 50-60 mmcfe/d from this region. During the quarter, the Farrell Creek facility was expanded to handle 180 mmcf/d of throughput.
In the liquids-rich Eagle Ford shale, Talisman will increase to 10 drilling rigs in the fourth quarter and has two full-time frac crews operating. Well results are in line with expectations and production is expected to average approximately 30 mmcfe/d in 2011.
In the Duvernay shale, the company is currently drilling its first horizontal pilot well.

Southeast Asia is a self-funding growth area for Talisman. Natural gas sales during the quarter averaged 522 mmcf/d, a record for Talisman, with prices averaging $9.40/mcf.
In Malaysia, gas sales averaged 121 mmcf/d, 10% higher than the same period last year, reflecting optimization initiatives at PM3 and strong regional gas demand. Talisman plans to drill up to four development wells in the fourth quarter.
In Indonesia, volumes were higher than in the previous quarter after planned shutdowns were completed in Corridor and Tangguh. The early compression project was commissioned in the Dayung field, increasing gas production 15% to 50 mmcf/d (net sales gas).
Also in Indonesia, production continued to ramp up at the recently commissioned Jambi Merang project, averaging 5,200 boe/d in the quarter.
In the Joint Petroleum Development Area (Timor-Leste/Australia), the offshore Kitan project was commissioned in early October and is currently producing 40,000 bbls/d (10,000 bbls/d net).

The North Sea continues to generate surplus cash flow for reinvestment elsewhere, with a high percentage of liquids production and high netbacks. Capital spend was $298 million during the quarter.
Production in the third quarter was lower due to maintenance activities, mandated safety upgrades and natural field declines. In the UK, the Buchan, Ross/Blake and Claymore fields are now back online, as is Rev in Norway. As announced previously, the Tartan platform has been shut down to undertake safety-related upgrades. Tartan is expected to be shut down through the fourth quarter.
North Sea production is expected to average approximately 100,000 boe/d during the fourth quarter. Next year, the company plans to bring on a fourth development well at Auk North and drill infill wells at Tweedsmuir and Rev to mitigate natural declines.
In Norway, two wells were drilled and well interventions were successfully completed at Gyda. Offshore commissioning continued at Yme and first production is expected by the end of the second quarter of 2012.
International Exploration
Talisman has a number of important international exploration wells currently drilling or planned for the fourth quarter.
International exploration spending of $185 million was focused on exploration and appraisal wells in Colombia, Papua New Guinea, the North Sea, and on seismic programs in Southeast Asia and Latin America.
In Colombia, production averaged 14,000 boe/d during the quarter. The Equion-operated Piedemonte development is progressing. Two recent development wells were successful and drilling is continuing, with two rigs currently in the field.
In the nearby Niscota block, the Huron 2 appraisal well is expected to finish drilling mid-year 2012. The Huron 3 appraisal well is expected to spud in the second quarter of next year.
In the heavy oil region of Colombia, following the success of stratigraphic wells in block CPE-6, the regulator has approved an application to convert a portion of the block to an Exploration and Production Contract. Further drilling in the block will commence in the fourth quarter. The company expects to flow test wells in 2012.
Also in the heavy oil region, in the Ecopetrol-operated block CPO-9, the Akacias-1 well continues to produce approximately 1,600 bbls/d (gross) on long-term test. Talisman started drilling the first of several appraisal wells on the Akacias structure in October.
In Peru, Talisman plans to spud the Situche Norte-4X exploration well in the fourth quarter. In Indonesia, Talisman spudded the Lempuk-1 deepwater well in the Sageri PSC in October. In the Kurdistan region of northern Iraq, the Topkhana-1 exploration well is currently drilling, with completion expected in November. In Poland, the first of three initial shale wells spudded in September.
In Papua New Guinea, the most recent well, Siphon-1, found gas in a non-commercial reservoir. Drilling continues with the addition of a second rig in October, and Talisman remains confident in its target to successfully aggregate 2-4 tcf of gas in this region.

Oil and Gas Information
Throughout this news release, Talisman makes reference to production volumes. Unless otherwise stated, such production volumes are stated on a gross basis, which means they are stated prior to the deduction of royalties and similar payments. In the US, net production volumes are reported after the deduction of these amounts. Production reported for Colombia represents Talisman's 49% net interest of Equion production. Talisman also discloses its company netbacks in this news release. Netbacks per boe are calculated by deducting from sales price associated royalties, operating and transportation costs.
Barrel of oil equivalent (boe) throughout this news release is calculated at a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet (mcf) of natural gas for one barrel of oil (bbl). This news release also includes reference to mcf equivalents (mcfes) which are calculated at a conversion rate of one barrel of oil to 6,000 cubic feet of gas. Boes and mcfes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 mcf:1 bbl and an mcfe conversion ration of 1 bbl: 6 mcf are based on an energy equivalence conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Included in this news release are references to financial measures commonly used in the oil and gas industry such as cash flow, earnings from operations and capital expenditures including exploration expensed. These terms are not defined by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Consequently, these are referred to as non-GAAP measures. Talisman's reported results of such measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

commodity derivatives that are classified as held-for-trading financial
instruments.
2. Share-based payments relate principally to the mark-to-market value of
the company's outstanding stock options and cash units at September 30.
The company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the
fair value of its share-based payment plans.
3. Deferred tax adjustments include deferred taxes relating to unrealized
foreign exchange gains and losses associated with the impact of
fluctuations in the Canadian dollar on foreign denominated debt,
intercompany loans and tax pool balances, as well as a remeasurement of
UK deferred tax assets and liabilities in response to a statutory rate
change.
Earnings from operations are calculated by adjusting the company's net income per the financial statements for certain items of a non-operational nature on an after tax basis. The company uses this information to evaluate performance of core operational activities on a comparable basis between periods. Earnings from operations per share are earnings from operations divided by the average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings from operations per share are earnings from operations divided by the diluted number of common shares outstanding during the period, as reported in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements filed on November 2, 2011. A reconciliation of net income to earnings from operations is provided above.
