EOG Resources Announces First Quarter 2016 Results and Successful Enhanced Oil Recovery Project

HOUSTON, May 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
- Completes First Economic Enhanced Oil Recovery Test in U.S. Horizontal Shale Reservoir
- Concludes Four Pilot Projects in the Eagle Ford
- Adds New Reserve Potential at Single Digit Per Barrel Costs
- Generates High Net Present Value
- Delivers Rates of Return on Investment Exceeding 30 Percent at $40 Oil Price
- Extends EOG's Horizontal Technology Gains
- Announces Successful South Texas Austin Chalk Exploratory Results
- Reports Strong Quarterly Operating Results, Exceeds U.S. Oil Production and Cost Reduction Targets
EOG Resources Inc. (NYSE: EOG) (EOG) today reported a first quarter 2016 net loss of $471.8 million, or $0.86 per share. This compares to a first quarter 2015 net loss of $169.7 million, or $0.31 per share.
Adjusted non-GAAP net loss for the first quarter 2016 was $455.4 million, or $0.83 per share, compared to adjusted non-GAAP net income of $16.8 million, or $0.03 per share, for the same prior year period. Adjusted non-GAAP net income (loss) 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.)
Lower commodity prices more than offset significant well productivity improvements and cost reductions, resulting in decreases to adjusted non-GAAP net income, discretionary cash flow and EBITDAX during the first quarter 2016 compared to the first quarter 2015. (Please refer to the attached tables for the reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures.)
Operational Highlights
In the first quarter 2016, EOG implemented its previously announced strategy to focus capital in areas which generate premium rates of return. This move significantly improved average well performance and contributed to EOG's strong production in the first quarter 2016. U.S. crude oil volumes exceeded the high end of the company's forecast in the first quarter 2016.
In addition, EOG continued to reduce costs across its operations. During the first quarter of 2016, lease and well expenses decreased 29 percent and transportation costs decreased 12 percent compared to the same prior year period, both on a per-unit basis. Total general and administrative expenses decreased 7 percent compared to the first quarter 2015, excluding expenses related to a voluntary retirement program.
EOG's East Irish Sea Conwy project in the United Kingdom achieved first production in March 2016.
EOG also continued to improve capital efficiency. For the first quarter 2016, exploration and development expenditures (excluding property acquisitions) decreased 61 percent, while total crude oil and condensate production declined by only 10 percent, compared to the first quarter 2015. Total natural gas production for the first quarter 2016 decreased 3 percent versus the prior year period.
"Our premium drilling strategy is extending EOG's performance leadership in the upstream industry," said William R. "Bill" Thomas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Excellent well performance and cost reductions drove tremendous capital efficiency gains and gave EOG a great start on another successful year. EOG is steadily approaching its goal of becoming one of the lowest cost global oil producers through its sustainable advantages in asset quality, technology, cost reductions and operational execution."
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)
EOG confirmed success of its internally developed EOR process in the Eagle Ford following more than three years of testing in four successful pilot projects with 15 producing wells. These four pilot projects, located across the field, demonstrated consistent reservoir responses from a group of mature producing wells. The pilots generated significant increases in crude oil production with relatively low capital cost. One additional EOR pilot project that encompasses 32 producing wells is planned for 2016.
EOG anticipates many benefits from the application of this new technology, including high incremental net present value and rates of return on investment, low finding and operating costs, reduced severance tax rates, lower production decline rates and increased reservoir recoveries. EOG's Eagle Ford shale acreage position possesses unique geologic properties ideally suited for the company's proprietary EOR techniques. These methods require very strong geologic containment that may not exist in most horizontal oil plays.
"Today's introduction of EOG's enhanced oil recovery potential for the Eagle Ford shale is another technical breakthrough to further enhance the value of EOG's Eagle Ford assets," Thomas said. "Our proprietary EOR capabilities and first-mover advantages uniquely position the company to create substantial incremental shareholder value through this long-life project."
South Texas Austin Chalk
EOG expanded its inventory of high rate of return crude oil plays with successful drilling results in the South Texas Austin Chalk, which sits on top of the South Texas Eagle Ford shale. The initial test well, the Leonard AC Unit 101H, came online with average 30-day initial production rates of 2,100 barrels of oil per day (Bopd) with 295 barrels per day (Bpd) of natural gas liquids (NGLs) and 1.9 million cubic feet per day (MMcfd) of natural gas. A second Austin Chalk well, the Denali Unit 101H, was brought online in April 2016, with average 20-day initial production rates of 2,265 Bopd with 415 Bpd of NGLs and 2.7 MMcfd of natural gas. EOG intends to drill seven additional Austin Chalk wells in 2016 to further delineate the formation's potential.
"EOG continues to demonstrate its organic growth capabilities by discovering a new geologic concept in an existing play," Thomas said. "Although the industry has known about the Austin Chalk for many years, it took a new approach to turn it into a high rate of return play which competes with EOG's top-tier assets. We expect the Austin Chalk to make a meaningful contribution to our future success."
South Texas Eagle Ford
EOG continued to achieve strong well performance and capital efficiencies in the Eagle Ford during the first quarter 2016. In Gonzales County, EOG completed the Stills Unit 2H with average 30-day initial production rates of 2,775 Bopd, 345 Bpd of NGLs and 2.2 MMcfd of natural gas and the Neets Unit 9H with average 30-day initial production rates of 2,355 Bopd, 255 Bpd of NGLs and 1.7 MMcfd of natural gas. Also in Gonzales County, EOG completed the Fleetwood Unit 5H-8H wells in a four-well pattern with average 30-day initial production rates per well of 2,330 Bopd, 320 Bpd of NGLs and 2.1 MMcfd of natural gas. In Lavaca County, EOG completed the Boedeker 18H with average 30-day initial production rates of 2,305 Bopd, 220 Bpd of NGLs and 1.4 MMcfd of natural gas.
Delaware Basin
EOG's advancements in precision targeting and completions technology continue to drive superior well results and rates of return in the Delaware Basin. In the Delaware Basin Wolfcamp in Lea County, N.M., EOG completed the Rattlesnake 21 Fed Com #701H and #702H with average 20-day initial production rates of 2,670 and 2,870 Bopd, 450 and 480 Bpd of NGLs and 3.7 and 4.0 MMcfd of natural gas, respectively. Also in the Delaware Basin Wolfcamp in Lea County, N.M., EOG completed the Lomas Rojas 26 State Com #701H - #704H in a four-well pattern with average 30-day initial production rates per well of 1,910 Bopd, 300 Bpd of NGLs and 2.4 MMcfd of natural gas.
EOG continues to improve well and completion designs in the Delaware Basin, which led to increased well productivity in the first quarter 2016.
Hedging Activity
For the period April 12 through April 30, 2016, EOG had crude oil financial price swap contracts in place for 90,000 Bopd at a weighted average price of $42.30 per barrel. For the period May 1 through June 30, 2016, EOG has crude oil financial price swap contracts in place for 128,000 Bopd at a weighted average price of $42.56 per barrel.
For the period March 1 through May 31, 2016, EOG had natural gas financial price swap contracts in place for 60,000 million British thermal units (MMBtu) per day at a weighted average price of $2.49 per MMBtu. For the period June 1 through August 31, 2016, EOG has natural gas financial price swap contracts in place for 60,000 MMBtu per day at a weighted average price of $2.49 per MMBtu.

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 |
