  2. Slide 2: Key Messages

    2 • Execute on our capital program with a focus on growing our U.S. oil production. • Continue to drive our effort to further reduce our oil and gas operating costs, and improve our capital and drilling efficiency with the overriding goal to create higher margins from our oil and gas production. • E

    Full Year 2012 Results – Summary FY 2012 FY 2011 • *Core Income from continuing operations $5,750 $6,828 • *Core EPS (diluted) from continuing operations $7.09 $8.39 • Reported Net Income $4,598 $6,771 • Reported EPS (diluted) $5.67 $8.32 • Worldwide oil and gas production volumes (mboe/d) +5% 766 7

  4. Slide 4: Updated 1Q13 Oil & Gas Sales and Earnings Guidance

    4 • We currently estimate that our 1Q13 oil and gas production outside the U.S. will be roughly 18 mboe/d below the 4Q12 level, however, sales volumes should be approximately 40 mboe/d lower than 4Q12. • While the lower production volumes are due to the combined effect of a facility turnaround in Qa

  5. Slide 5: What Is Our Philosophy & Strategy?

    Overriding Goal is to Maximize Total Shareholder Return • We believe this can be achieved through a combination of: • Growing our oil and gas production by 5% to 8% per year on average over the long term; • Allocating and deploying capital with a focus on achieving well above cost-of-capital returns

  12. Slide 12: 2013 Capital Outlook

    • Our overall capital spending is expected to decline by ~6% in 2013 to $9.6 billion from the $10.2 billion we spent in 2012. • The reduction in capital will come entirely from the oil and gas business where the 4Q12 spend rate was already close to the level planned for all of 2013. – Almost all of

  15. Slide 15: 2013 Capital Outlook – Domestic Oil & Gas

    • Permian capital should remain flat. • We expect to reduce CA capex ~$500 mm from 2012, as a result of ongoing well cost reductions and efficiencies, a modest shift toward more conventional drilling opportunities and the constraints of the current environment. • In the Midcontinent, we expect to re
