ConocoPhillips Reports 2011 Organic Reserve Replacement of 120 Percent

23.01.2012  |  Business Wire

Total Reserve Replacement of 112 Percent


ConocoPhillips [NYSE:COP] today announced preliminary 2011 organic net
proved reserve additions of 738 million barrels of oil equivalent (BOE).
This represents an expected organic reserve replacement ratio of 120
percent of 2011 production.


'Replacing our 2011 production with new reserves reflects the success of
our strategic focus on organic growth,? said Jim Mulva, chairman and
chief executive officer. 'We added reserves throughout our globally
diverse asset base, through focused investment on high-return
opportunities.?


Reserves were added across the portfolio, including at the company′s
Canadian oil sands properties at Christina Lake and Surmont; in
liquids-rich U.S. shale trends, such as Eagle Ford and Bakken; in the
North Sea, through expansion projects in the Ekofisk, Eldfisk and Clair
developments; and in Malaysia, with sanctioning of the Kebabangan
project and ongoing development of the Gumusut Field. Reserve additions
were also delivered across the company′s North American conventional
asset portfolio.


'With a substantial captured resource base providing significant
exploitation opportunities and continued execution of major projects
around the world, we remain committed to our goal to grow production and
reserves,? added Mulva.


Acquisitions and dispositions are expected to reduce reserves by 45
million BOE, primarily reflecting dilution of the company′s interest in
the Australia Pacific LNG project and sale of North American natural gas
assets. The total reserve replacement ratio is expected to be 112
percent of 2011 production. Production for the year is expected to be
617 million BOE, including fuel gas. ConocoPhillips expects to end 2011
with 8.4 billion BOE of proved reserves.


The company will provide final information related to its 2011 oil and
gas reserves and finding and development costs in its Annual Report on
Form 10-K, expected to be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission in late February.


ConocoPhillips is an integrated energy company with interests around the
world. ?Headquartered in Houston, the company had approximately 29,700
employees, $155 billion of assets, and $247 billion of annualized
revenues as of Sept. 30, 2011. For more information, go to www.conocophillips.com.
