The following information has been prepared in accordance with SFAS 69 and the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which require the standardized measure of discounted future cash flows based on sales prices, costs and statutory interest rates. In contrast to previous years, as of 2009 the proven reserves are not measured based on the price on the balance sheet date (December 31), but on the average price of the quotations from the first day of each month. The values calculated in this way are subject to a 10% annual discount rate.
The projection should not be viewed as realistic estimates of future cash flows nor should the “standardized measure” be interpreted as representing current value to the company.
Material revisions of estimates of proved reserves may occur in the future, development and production of the reserves may not occur in the period assumed, actual prices realized are expected to vary significantly from those used and actual costs may also vary.
The company’s investment and operating decisions are not based on the information presented below, but on a wide range of reserve estimates, and on different price and cost assumptions from those reflected in this information.
Beyond the above considerations, the “standardized measure” is also not directly comparable with asset balances appearing elsewhere in the Consolidated Financial Statements because any such comparison would require a reconciling adjustment.
