Open Joint Stock Company "Oil Company "LUKOIL" Summary of 2014 performance results and main objectives for 2015
In 2014 OAO "LUKOIL" (hereinafter also the "Company") successfully reached its objectives, confirming its competitiveness, high-level efficiency, and reliability, which made it possible to increase shareholder return by increasing dividends to RUB 154 per share1 (+40% to 2013). Dividend yield may equal 7.6%.2
Exploration work and reserves of oil and gas
In terms of exploration, 2014 was one of the Company's most successful years: 14 deposits with reserves were discovered, which is the best result in the past decade.
When performing exploration work, the Company pays special attention to the use of innovative technologies, which makes it possible to significantly increase the efficiency of exploration work. The success rate for the Company's exploratory drilling in 2014 was 86% (2013: 73%).
As at 31 December 2014 proven hydrocarbon reserves of the Company made up 17.6 billion BOE, demonstrating steady growth during the past 5 years. 121% of production was replaced by increases in proven reserves in 2014, which is record high for the past 9 years. Through exploratory drilling in traditional operating regions, accelerated development of deposits discovered in 2014, and asset acquisitions, the increase in the Company's proven reserves in 2014 was 828 million BOE. Reviews of previous estimates led to an increase in reserves by 233 million BOE. This was possible due to improvements in the technology for developing existing deposits, and also taking into account the tax concessions provided by the Russian Government for difficult-to-recover and offshore reserves.
Oil and gas production
The LUKOIL Group (hereinafter also the "Group") increased its daily average oil production by 6.4% primarily as result of organic growth of production in the Caspian, in the Komi Republic, and in Perm, as well and as a result of the launch of the West Qurna-2 deposit in Iraq. Oil production (including the Company's share of the production of associates) was equal to 97.2 million tonnes (713.1 million barrels).
The Company is working actively to start production at new deposits. Over the course of 2014, hydrocarbon production began at 17 new deposits. About 30 of the Company's deposits in the Russian Federation increased their oil production in 2014 compared to 2013 by more than 50 thousand tonnes. As a result of the growth of production drilling, significant increases were achieved in oil production at the Vostochno-Lambeyshorskoye deposit in Komi (661 thousand tonnes) and the Vostochno-Perevalnoye deposit in Western Siberia (220 thousand tonnes).
In the Caspian Sea, the Company also achieved impressive results: hydrocarbon production at the Yu. Korchagin deposit increased, and offshore platforms at the region's largest deposit, the V. Filanovsky deposit, were installed.
1 Dividends recommended by the Board of Directors for payment based on the results of the 2014 financial year (including interim dividends of RUB 60 per one ordinary share). 2 Dividend yield for 2014 is calculated based on the size of dividends recommended by the Board of Directors for payment
based on the results of the 2014 financial year of RUB 154 per share and the average market price of an ordinary share at the MICEX for the relevant period.
Commercial production of oil started at the West Qurna-2 in Iraq; in 2014 production from this deposit amounted to 11.0 million tonnes (including the Company's share of 6.1 million tonnes).
Oil refining
Russian enterprises of the refining block achieved positive results in 2014 through their high level of competitiveness. All of the Company's refineries are undergoing comprehensive modernization. Among other things, the Company proceeded with the modernization of the Perm refinery and the construction of a catalytic cracking plant in Nizhny Novgorod, a VGO deep conversion complex at the Volgograd refinery and a heavy still bottoms conversion complex at the Burgas refinery. Commissioning of these units will make it possible to ensure adequate growth in the Company's cash flow.
Due to continuing modernization, the depth of processing at Russian refineries reached 77.1%, the share of high-octane gasoline accounted for 100.0% of the total production of automotive gasoline. Compared to 2013, production of petroleum products at subsidiary and associated refineries of the Group increased by 0.3%, including an increase of 0.1% in the production of petroleum products at Russian refineries.
Electrical power generation
The Company continued to develop the power generation sector in 2014 in accordance with the strategic development programme. Total output of electrical power in 2014 was 17.1 billion kWh. Total output of thermal energy was 14.1 million GCal, including 13.0 million GCal in Russia. The volume of thermal energy and electrical power produced was determined proceeding from the conditions on the power generation market.
According to the schedule, in 2014 the Company commissioned a steam gas unit, PGU-135, at Stavrolen. In Romania, a solar power station at the Ploesti refinery with a capacity of 9 MW and also a wind power station Land Power with a capacity of 84 MW were commissioned. As a result, in 2014 the electrical power production at the Group's wind power stations increased by 71%.
Sale of oil and gas
The Company's aggregate sales of oil, including deliveries for refining at the Company's own refineries and associate refineries, were equal to 129 million tonnes in 2014. At the same time, in connection with the high efficiency of oil supplies on the domestic market compared to the majority of deliveries abroad, significant volumes of oil were rerouted from inefficient export deliveries to the Company's refineries and sales on the Russian domestic market. Exports decreased by 6.3% in 2014, and were equal to 29.8 million tonnes.
The Company exported 6.7 million tonnes of oil through its own terminals, an increase of 5%, including 5.9 million tonnes through the Varandei terminal and 0.8 million tonnes through the Svetly terminal.
An important achievement for the Company was the organization of export shipments through the East Siberia–Pacific Ocean system in the port of Kozmino, which made it possible to sell light crude while maintaining its quality and with greater efficiency than traditional exports to the West.
In May 2014 the Company started oil shipments from the Yu. Korchagin deposit in the direction of Baku, which made it possible to diversify markets for selling this oil.
Sale of oil products
The Company increased sales of petroleum products by 0.8% to 118 million tonnes in 2014. The greatest share of the increase came on the Russian market (+3.8% compared to 2013) due to the increased demand for high-quality fuel.
Average daily sales per filling station in Russia rose to 13.8 tonnes, due to the introduction of highly efficient stations and the optimization of money-losing stations, reconstruction of older stations, and also the implementation of client loyalty programmes (LICARD). Sales of non-fuel goods rose by 10%.
Corporate responsibility
For more than 20 years, we have prudently used our natural and human resources, which is the underlying reason for our success. Among private Russian oil and gas companies, OAO "LUKOIL" is the only operator of offshore deposits, where strict compliance with the zero-emission principle ensures the preservation of the natural environment.
In 2014, the Company focused its attention on issues of health, safety and the environment in its regions of presence.
The Company has invested approximately USD 5 billion in environmental measures over the past five years, specifically, in preventing atmospheric pollution, including by improving the utilization of associated petroleum gas (APG) and also accident prevention and clean-up operations. In 2014, the level of APG utilization increased by 4.9%, burning of APG in absolute terms decreased from 1.4 to 1.1 billion cubic meters, or by 15.8%.
Maintaining its dedication to high principles of social responsibility, in 2014 OAO "LUKOIL" continued its sponsorship and charitable activities, supporting educational, medical and sports institutions and promoting preservation of the cultural and historical heritage in its regions of presence.
Without doubt, a key factor in the Company's successful work is the integrated work of its entire workforce.
LUKOIL indexes employee wages on an annual basis; in 2014 wages of employees of its Russian entities were indexed by 5.6%.
A key priority for the Company is to create conditions where every employee can realize their full potential.
Corporate governance
A stable shareholder structure creates the foundations for high standards of corporate governance and maintaining continuity, which is confirmed by highest reliability ratings. In 2014, the international agencies Fitch and Moody's confirmed the Company's BBB and Baa2 ratings.
Stock market
Over the course of 2014, Russian stock indexes were under pressure from instability on commodity markets and the situation in Ukraine. In addition there was a significant outflow of capital from the Russian market to developed markets.
The MICEX index fell by 7.1% from the start of the year. OAO "LUKOIL" shares were traded significantly above the market and oil&gas sector levels, with quotations on the Moscow Exchange growing 9.1% over the year.
As at 2014 year end, major investment banks made a "buy" recommendation for the Company's shares.
Main objectives for 2015
The Company's strategy consists in seeking to increase long-term shareholder value and shareholder return. By creating effective new points of growth for the business for steady future development, the Company is currently going through the peak of the investment cycle. Investments in new projects are aimed at reinforcing the raw materials base, and at modernizing refining capacities to improve efficiency.
In future, the Company will continue to work to achieve its goals and objectives, creating a highly profitable business that will make it possible to derive maximum benefits from the existing market situation and to ensure a high return for shareholders.
