Oil Search Profile

 Established in Papua New Guinea ( PNG) in 1 9 2 9  Operates all of PNG’s producing oil and gas fields.

Current gross production ~ 4 0 ,0 0 0 boepd, net share ~ 2 1 ,0 0 0 boepd

 PNG Governm ent is largest shareholder w ith 1 5 % . I n

early 2 0 0 9 , Govt issued exchangeable bond over shares to I PI C of Abu Dhabi

 2 9 % interest in PNG LNG Project, w orld scale LNG

project operated by ExxonMobil. Project in construction, first LNG sales expected 2 0 1 4

 Significant further gas resources still to be

com m ercialised plus exploration interests in PNG and Middle East/ North Africa

 Market capitalisation ~ US$ 7 billion. Listed on ASX

( Share Code OSH) and POMSOX, plus ADR program m e ( Share Code OI SHY)

 Less than tw o years from FEED to Sanction  Transform ational im pact on Oil Search and PNG  ExxonMobil quality operator  Foundation for m ajor LNG industry in PNG

 Seven fold increase in proven and probable reserves, increasing

from 6 7 m m boe to 5 6 7 m m boe, w ith significant further potential upside

 NPAT of US$ 1 3 3 .7 m illion, US$ 9 9 .6 m excluding PNG

Governm ent back-in and tax adjustm ents. Satisfactory result given com m odity environm ent, w ith average oil price dow n 3 5 %

 Strong balance sheet w ith US$ 1 .3 billion cash at year end, total

liquidity of US$ 1 .6 billion ( including line of credit) . Sufficient for both PNG LNG equity contribution plus funding of T3 / T4 gas exploration/ appraisal program m e
