CALGARY, Alberta, July 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

- Performance at Buzzard & Usan Drives Increased Production and Cash Flow

Nexen Inc. (TSX: NXY) (NYSE: NXY) today reported second quarter 2012 operating and financial results and provided an update on strategic priorities.

Production volumes averaged 213,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d), a 5% increase from the first quarter. These volumes reflected the ramp-up of our Usan project offshore West Africa and solid performance from our UK assets, in particular the Buzzard platform. Cash flow from operations was up 6% to $707 million ($1.34/share) as we recognized the first cash flow from Usan and continued to benefit from our exposure to Brent-priced oil and strong cash netbacks. Net income decreased 36% from the prior quarter to $109 million ($0.20/share) primarily due to the previously announced unsuccessful Kakuna exploration well in the Gulf of Mexico.

We continue to make good progress on several of our strategic priorities:

  • Buzzard operations were very strong; the facility produced 194,000 boe/d (84,000 boe/d net to Nexen) with a production efficiency of 88%, which exceeded our target of 85%.
  • Usan continues to ramp-up and is currently producing over 100,000 barrels per day (bbls/d) (20,000 bbls/d net to Nexen) from the initial production wells.
  • In the Gulf of Mexico, we continue to be excited by our success at Appomattox. We recently completed a successful appraisal well in the south fault block of the structure and the preliminary indications are that we are near the upper end of our expectations. Next, we plan on drilling a sidetrack to test additional resource potential in the northwest fault block.
  • We also continue to progress our exploration program elsewhere, with drilling operations underway on the North Uist well in the UK North Sea and the Owowo West well, offshore West Africa.
  • We achieved first production from pad 12 at Long Lake and began steaming pad 13 ahead of expectations; these pads are expected to produce 11,000-17,000 bbls/d of gross bitumen production following an 18 to 24 month ramp-up.

"I'm pleased that we continue to make significant progress against our milestones and that we've generated solid financial results over the past few quarters," said Kevin Reinhart, Nexen's interim President & CEO. "A renewed focus on operational excellence has allowed us to meet our production guidance again this quarter, and our growth plans are also advancing, with important progress at Long Lake, ongoing success at Appomattox and a couple of exciting exploration wells underway."

Operational Update

Conventional

Offshore West Africa - Oil production from Usan started February 24 on block OML-138, offshore Nigeria. Seven wells are now on-stream and since late April, production rates have averaged between 100,000 and 110,000 bbls/d (20,000-22,000 bbls/d net to Nexen). We expect to bring on additional producing wells later this year.

In July, we spudded an exploration well at Owowo West on block OPL-223 and expect to reach target depth there this fall. This well is in close proximity to our oil discovery at Owowo South B.

UKNorth Sea - Buzzard production efficiency was strong in the second quarter at 88%, calculated using an assumed maximum production rate of 220,000 boe/d. This exceeds our target of 85% efficiency, excluding planned downtime.

We plan to begin the scheduled major vessel inspection and turnaround at Buzzard in the first week of September. Production will be shut-in for several weeks as the work is completed; the facility is expected to return to full rates by mid-October.

We recently drilled a successful appraisal well in the Northern Terrace area of the Buzzard field. We are currently testing our discovery there and plan to sidetrack to assess the resource size.

At Telford, we saw very good rates from the TAC tieback in the second half of the quarter as we worked through minor facility issues encountered during start-up.

The Golden Eagle development continues to progress towards first oil in late 2014. The fabrication of the platform facilities is well underway; construction is on time and on budget.

Drilling is underway on our North Uist exploration prospect, which is located to the west of the Shetland Islands. Results from the BP-operated well are expected in the third quarter.

Gulf of Mexico - Our top priority in the Gulf of Mexico is continuing our exploration and appraisal program in the Norphlet play along with our partner, Shell Gulf of Mexico Inc.

To date, we have booked 65 million barrels of probable reserves in the south fault block of the Appomattox structure and added 50 million barrels of net contingent resource in the northeast fault block. We further delineated the south fault block during the second quarter with an appraisal well that encountered over 400 feet of net true vertical thickness oil pay and confirmed excellent reservoir quality. This well came in at the high end of our expectations and as a result, it could have a positive impact on our probable reserves.

We have five more exploration and appraisal targets in the Norphlet play that we plan to test over the next twelve months, including:

  • A sidetrack from the recently completed appraisal well to test incremental resource potential in the northwest fault block of the Appomattox structure.
  • An exploration well targeting a structure between Appomattox and our prior discovery at Vicksburg.
  • A sidetrack from that well to further appraise the northeast fault block.
  • Two nearby exploration wells at Petersburg and Rydberg.

These wells will allow us to progress a development plan for Appomattox and continue to test the potential of the significant acreage position we have accumulated in the area.

We have a 20% interest in Appomattox, a 25% interest in Vicksburg and similar interests in numerous other blocks in the Norphlet play. The remaining interests are held by Shell, who is the operator.

Oil Sands

LongLake - Production from Long Lake was 33,700 bbls/d (gross) at a steam-oil-ratio of 5.0. Production was down slightly from 34,500 bbls/d in the first quarter as growth from pad 11 was offset by steam outages and well downtime, primarily during April. Production in May and June averaged 35,400 bbls/d (gross).

At pad 11, recent weekly averages have been about 6,000 bbls/d and we expect those rates to continue to increase going forward.

At pad 12, we are currently producing from four of the nine wells. The remaining wells are expected to be converted from circulation to production over the next few weeks. Pad 12 started production ahead of schedule due to new completion techniques and processes that will now be standard for future wells. The nine wells on pad 13 also began steaming ahead of schedule, primarily as a result of the efficiency of steam utilization on the pad 12 start-up.

A major turnaround beginning in mid-August will result in lower third quarter production rates compared to the first and second quarters of this year. Due to the turnaround, we expect approximately three weeks of SAGD downtime and six weeks of upgrader downtime.

Once the turnaround has been completed, we expect production to resume an upward trend. Steam injection is currently at record levels of about 190,000 bbls/d; we are directing this steam to the best available resource. We expect our year-end exit rate to be strong with pad 11 growth, the ramp-up of pads 12 and 13, and improved facility operations following the turnaround. We also have a few infill wells and re-drills that will start to contribute to production in the fourth quarter.

Upgrader yield (PSC[TM] barrels per barrel of bitumen) was 74% and facility on-stream time (percent of available bitumen processed) was 90%. Per-barrel operating costs were consistent with the prior quarter. Following the turnaround, we expect operating costs to decrease on a per-barrel basis as production increases. Lower oil prices and production resulted in a reduction in cash flow from the prior quarter.

We continue to make good progress towards filling the upgrader with additional wells in good-quality resource. We expect to begin drilling on pads 14, 15 and Kinosis 1A over the next several weeks. Together with the existing producing wells, we anticipate these wells will allow us to fill the upgrader over the next few years:

Nexen has a 65% working interest in both Long Lake and Kinosis and is the operator. CNOOC Canada Inc. holds a 35% working interest in both Long Lake and Kinosis.

Shale Gas

Northeast British Columbia - Our previously announced joint venture agreement with INPEX and JGC is now expected to close before the end of July. All conditions of the transaction are expected to be met next week.

We are finalizing the completion activities on an 18-well pad in the Horn River. The pad is slated to come on-stream in the fourth quarter, concurrent with the facility expansion which will increase our production capacity to about 175 million cubic feet per day (mmcf/d) from approximately 50 mmcf/d. Lease earning activities are also commencing on our Liard acreage. Nexen and INPEX plan to develop our significant shale gas resource as economic conditions permit. We have also agreed to jointly investigate the feasibility of LNG export opportunities.

Production increased 5% from the first quarter on a before-royalties basis and 8% on an after-royalties basis. The increase was primarily driven by the ramp-up of Usan and good performance from the Buzzard field. Those increases were offset by a longer than expected turnaround at Syncrude and lower rates at Longhorn in the Gulf of Mexico.

Guidance Update

Production of 213,000 boe/d met our guidance of 190,000 to 235,000 boe/d.

We are on-track to meet our third and fourth quarter production guidance, with Buzzard, Usan and Long Lake continuing to be the critical drivers of our guidance ranges.

At Buzzard, production will be primarily driven by production efficiency and the length of the turnaround. We expect that total planned shutdown days for the year will fall within our guidance of 29 to 42 days.

We also have downtime on the Scott platform planned for the third quarter. This will allow us to prepare the tie-in of the Rochelle facilities and complete regular platform maintenance. Rochelle is expected to be on-stream around the end of the year.

At Usan, the primary drivers of production will continue to be the timing of new well start-ups and overall well performance.

The primary factors affecting Long Lake production for the third quarter are well performance and the length of the planned turnaround. Our guidance reflects three weeks of production downtime related to the turnaround. In the fourth quarter, production should reflect facility improvements made during the turnaround as well as growing production from pads 11, 12 and 13.

The second quarter financial results were strong, as the contribution from Usan and higher production volumes more than offset lower oil prices. Cash netbacks were fairly consistent with the first quarter as growth in our high-netback Usan production offset lower oil prices. This, combined with higher production, resulted in cash flow from operations increasing 6% compared to the prior quarter.

We continue to realize financial benefits from shipping oil off the west coast of Canada under the long-term contract we secured at the beginning of this year. During the quarter, our export capacity to the west coast of Canada generated approximately $34 million of incremental cash flow, a benefit which we expect to continue as long as Brent trades at a premium to North American crudes. Year-to-date, we have generated more than $70 million of cash flow from this source.

Net income declined to $109 million from $171 million in the first quarter due to the charge for the previously announced unsuccessful Kakuna exploration well.

Net debt decreased slightly compared to the first quarter. We expect to receive cash from our shale gas joint venture in the third quarter. This may be partially offset by capital expenditures exceeding cash flow, depending on oil prices.

Quarterly Dividends

The Board of Directors has declared the regular quarterly dividend of $0.05 per common share payable October 1, 2012, to shareholders of record on September 10, 2012.

The Board has also declared the quarterly dividend on our Series 2 Preferred Shares of $0.3125 per share payable September 30, 2012 to shareholders of record on September 10, 2012.

Statements relating to "reserves" or "resources" are forward-looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, based on estimates and assumptions that the reserves and resources described exist in the quantities predicted or estimated and can be profitably produced in the future.

All of the forward-looking statements in this Release are qualified by the assumptions that are stated or inherent in such forward-looking statements. Although we believe that these assumptions are reasonable based on the information available to us on the date such assumptions were made, this list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the forward-looking statements and the reader should not place an undue reliance on these assumptions and such forward-looking statements. The key assumptions that have been made in connection with the forward-looking statements include the following: that we will conduct our operations and achieve results of operations as anticipated; that our development plans will achieve the expected results; the general continuance of current or, where applicable, assumed industry conditions; the continuation of assumed tax, royalty and regulatory regimes; the accuracy of the estimates of our reserve volumes; commodity price and cost assumptions; the continued availability of adequate cash flow and debt and/or equity financing to fund our capital and operating requirements as needed; and the extent of our liabilities. We believe the material factors, expectations and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these factors, expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct.

Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control and each of which contributes to the possibility that our forward-looking statements will not occur or that actual results, levels of activity and achievements may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Such factors include, among others: market prices for oil and gas; our ability to explore, develop, produce, upgrade and transport crude oil and natural gas to markets; ultimate effectiveness of design or design modifications to facilities; the results of exploration and development drilling and related activities; the cumulative impact of oil sands development on the environment; the impact of technology on operations and processes and how new complex technology may not perform as expected; the availability of pipeline and global refining capacity; risks inherent to the operations of any large, complex refinery units, especially the integration between production operations and an upgrader facility; availability of third-party bitumen for use in our oil sands production facilities; labour and material shortages; risks related to accidents, blowouts and spills in connection with our offshore exploration, development and production activities, particularly our deep-water activities; direct and indirect risks related to the imposition of moratoriums, suspensions or cancellations of our offshore exploration, development and production operations, particularly our deep-water activities; the impact of severe weather on our offshore exploration, development and production activities, particularly our deep-water activities; the effectiveness and reliability of our technology in harsh and unpredictable environments; risks related to the actions and financial circumstances of our agents and contractors, counterparties and joint venture partners; volatility in energy trading markets; foreign currency exchange rates; economic conditions in the countries and regions in which we carry on business; governmental actions including changes to taxes or royalties, changes in environmental and other laws and regulations including without limitation, those related to our offshore exploration, development and production activities; renegotiations of contracts; results of litigation, arbitration or regulatory proceedings; political uncertainty, including actions by terrorists, insurgent or other groups, or other armed conflict, including conflict between states; and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

These risks, uncertainties and other factors and their possible impact are discussed more fully in the sections titled "Risk Factors" in our 2011 Annual Information Form and "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our 2011 annual MD&A. The impact of any one risk, uncertainty or factor on a particular forward-looking statement is not determinable with certainty as these factors are interdependent, and management's future course of action would depend on our assessment of all information at that time. Although we believe that the expectations conveyed by the forward-looking statements are reasonable based on information available to us on the date such forward-looking statements were made, no assurances can be given as to future results, levels of activity and achievements. Undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements contained herein, which are made as of the date hereof as the plans, intentions, assumptions or expectations upon which they are based might not occur or come to fruition. Except as required by applicable securities laws, Nexen undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Included herein is information that may be considered financial outlook and/or future-oriented financial information (FOFI). Its purpose is to indicate the potential results of our intentions and may not be appropriate for other purposes. The forward-looking statements contained herein are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement.

Note to Investors on Reserves and Resources
The reserves estimates in this disclosure were prepared with an effective date of December 31, 2011.  The resource estimates were prepared on March 31, 2012.  These estimates have been internally prepared by an internal qualified reserves evaluator in accordance with National Instrument 51-101 Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities ("NI 51-101") and the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook ("COGE Handbook"). For more information on this reserves estimate and Nexen's reserves estimation process please refer to our 2011 Annual Information Form. For more information on our Appomattox resource estimate please refer to our press release dated April 2, 2012. Both our Annual Information Form and news releases are available athttp://www.nexeninc.comandhttp://www.sedar.com.

Conversions of gas volumes to boe in these estimates were made on the basis of 1 boe to 6 mcf of natural gas. A boe conversion ratio of 6 mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Using the forecast prices applied to our reserves estimates, the boe conversion ratio based on wellhead value is approximately 30 mcf:1 bbl. Disclosure provided herein in respect of boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.

[1] Defined as cash flow from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital and other. We evaluate our performance and that of our business segments based on earnings and cash flow from operations. Cash flow from operations is a non-GAAP term that represents cash generated from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital and other. We consider it a key measure as it demonstrates our ability to generate the cash flow necessary to fund future growth through capital investment. Cash flow from operations may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other companies.

6. EQUITY

(a)     Common Shares

Authorized share capital consists of an unlimited number of common shares of no par value. At June 30, 2012, there were 529,335,905 common shares outstanding (December 31, 2011-527,892,635 common shares).

(b)     Preferred Shares

Authorized share capital consists of an unlimited number of Class A preferred shares of no par value, issuable in series. At June 30, 2012, there were 8,000,000 Cumulative Redeemable Class A Rate Reset Preferred Shares, Series 2 outstanding (December 31, 2011-nil).

(c)     Earnings Per Common Share (EPS)

We calculate basic EPS using net income attributable to Nexen Inc. shareholders, adjusted for preferred share dividends and divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. We calculate diluted EPS in the same manner as basic, except we adjust basic earnings for the potential conversion of the subordinated debentures and potential exercise of outstanding tandem options for shares, if dilutive. We use the weighted-average number of diluted common shares outstanding in the denominator of our diluted EPS calculation.

In calculating the weighted-average number of diluted common shares outstanding and related earnings adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we excluded 14,910,152 and 14,879,437 tandem options, respectively (2011-15,068,347 and 15,210,923, respectively) because their exercise price was greater than the average common share market price in the quarter. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, the potential conversion of tandem options was the only dilutive instrument. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, and the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the potential conversion of tandem options and subordinated debentures were the only dilutive instruments.

(d)     Dividends

We paid dividends of $0.05 and $0.10 per common share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 ($0.05 and $0.10 per common share for the respective periods ended June 30, 2011). Dividends paid to holders of common shares have been designated as "eligible dividends" for Canadian tax purposes.

On July 18, 2012, the board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.05 per common share, payable October 1, 2012 to the shareholders of record on September 10, 2012. Also, the board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.3125 per preferred share, payable September 30, 2012 to the shareholders of record on September 10, 2012.

7. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES

As described in Note 19 to the 2011 Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, there are a number of lawsuits and claims pending, the ultimate results of which cannot be ascertained at this time. We record costs as they are incurred or become determinable. We believe that payments, if any, related to existing indemnities would not have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.

We assume various contractual obligations and commitments in the normal course of our operations. During the quarter, we entered into drilling rig commitments in the UK North Sea.

11. OPERATING SEGMENTS AND RELATED INFORMATION

Nexen has the following operating segments:

Conventional Oil and Gas: We explore for, develop and produce crude oil and natural gas from conventional sources around the world. Our operations are focused in the UK North Sea, North America (Canada and US) and other countries (offshore Nigeria, Colombia, Yemen and Poland).

Oil Sands: We develop and produce synthetic crude oil from the Athabasca oil sands in northern Alberta. We produce bitumen using in situ and mining technologies and upgrade it into synthetic crude oil before ultimate sale. Our in situ activities are comprised of our operations at Long Lake and future development phases. Our mining activities are conducted through our 7.23% ownership of the Syncrude Joint Venture.

Shale Gas: We explore for and produce unconventional gas from shale formations in northeast British Columbia. Production and results of operations are included within Conventional Oil and Gas until they become significant.

Corporate and Other includes energy marketing and unallocated items. The results of Canexus have been presented as discontinued operations.

The accounting policies of our operating segments are the same as those described in Note 2 of our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2011. Net income (loss) of our operating segments excludes interest income, interest expense, income tax expense, unallocated corporate expenses and foreign exchange gains and losses. Identifiable assets are those used in the operations of the segments.
