  • Interest cover ratio is calculated as 12 months rolling EBITDA divided by interest expenses (excluding capitalized interest)
  • Reduced oil prices result in relative lower EBITDAX and higher net interest-bearing debt

Historical covenant calculation

Prudent financial risk management policies

  • Various hedging agreements for commodities and FX to mitigate financial risk when pricing and levels are viewed as attractive
  • No mandatory hedging requirements in debt facilities
  • Det norske is a USD-company, but NOK exposure is high from Sverdrup investments, operating costs and tax payments
  • Loss of production insurance for Alvheim FPSO
  • Covers loss of production after 60 days
  • Maximum coverage of 18 months downtime at USD 50/bbl

Strong HSE performance

  • There were no serious incidents in 2015:
  • No serious personnel injuries
  • No acute spills to the environment
  • No incidents with high potential
  • Experienced personnel and a mature organization at Alvheim contribute to good HSE results
  • Several initiatives are implemented to ensure continued improvement in HSE performance:
  • HSE culture sessions held for the entire organization
  • Program for major accident prevention continued from previous years
  • Emphasized focus on risk management tools and process
  • Transferring of best practice to Ivar Aasen Operations

The Alvheim story - exploration

Area consolidation 2001-2002

  • Known hydrocarbon presence but complex mixture of licenses and owners
  • Resource potential commercial only with an area development approach
  • Area extended over 3 licenses Reduced number of owners from 9 to 3
  • License coordination agreement with common ownership

Exploration campaign in 2003 proved up commerciality

  • 3 discoveries expected gas, but found oil
  • 3rd party field Vilje also discovered same year

The Alvheim story - development

Fast track development of an Area Oil Hub

Q4 2003 Concept Selection based on converting the
"MST Odin" to an FPSO
  • Q3 2004 Alvheim and Vilje PDOs submitted
  • 2005 Hull conversion at Keppel Shipyard in Singapore
  • 2006 2007 Topsides and Integration, Vetco Aibel in Haugesund
  • Q2 2006 Pre-drilling of wells commenced
  • June 2008 First production

Further Area development

Q3 2008 Vilje
first oil
Q3 2009 Volund

The Alvheim FPSO GREATER ALVHEIM AREA

The Alvheim FPSO production and Alvheim area reserves GREATER ALVHEIM AREA

Alvheim FPSO historical production (mboepd gross) Reserves vs. PDO (P50 gross), mmboe

Excellent uptime and reliability record

Alvheim Area Alvheim FPSO

  • Mid-life Detnorske operated FPSO currently producing ~100 mboepd (gross)
  • ~310 million barrels of oil (gross) produced to date
  • Strong operational performance, with a well embedded continuous improvement culture
  • Year-on-year improvement in production efficiency
  • Top quartile operating cost and production efficiency performance in 2014 McKinsey benchmarking
  • Continued strong focus on managing unplanned and planned losses

Way forward GREATER ALVHEIM AREA

Secure continuous development to fill the FPSO

  • Further area infill drilling
  • Development of further small discoveries in the area e.g. Caterpillar, Storklakken, Gekko
  • Near infrastructure exploration
  • High focus on subsurface maturation to maximize recovery with lowest number of wells/ laterals
  • Maximize seismic utilization inc. 4D
  • Utilizing new technology on data acquisition, geo-steering and ICD design (AICD/AICV)
  • Pilots into low amplitude areas
  • Cost reduction in field developments, especially with regards to drilling and completion and subsea technology
  • Low rig rate for Transocean Arctic will increase likelihood of continued production drilling at Alvheim

Operational readiness IVAR AASEN

  • Ivar Aasen readiness team established
  • One overall integrated team securing effective planning, execution and start-up Q4 2016
  • Asset based operation and fully integrated technical support for the Alvheim and Ivar Aasen assets
  • Aligned competence mapping and training requirement for Alvheim and Ivar Aasen
  • Operation service contracts aligned with Alvheim
  • Work processes being finalized Management system
  • Equipment criticality assessment and Maintenance program planning being developed
  • Edvard Grieg ready for Ivar Aasen start-up summer 2016 as per agreement
  • Integrated plan for tie-in activities being established

Status update Ivar Aasen and Edvard Grieg

KEY IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVES

Optimize Alvheim and transfer knowledge to Ivar Aasen

  • Capture synergies across assets by:
  • Implementing common work processes
  • Sharing technical support and services
  • Implementing efficient area emergency solutions
  • Ensuring organizational efficiency
  • Optimize maintenance and modifications through:
  • Reduction of preventive maintenance in low criticality areas
  • Insource activities performed by suppliers/contractors
  • Optimizing modifications and use of MMO contract
  • Review and revise spare parts management
  • Increase tool time through implementation of lean principles:
  • Optimizing work processes and the planning process
  • Improving workplace organization
  • Reviewing documentation process and quality
