First Quarter 2023 Results
Selling Price
In the first quarter 2023, Brent averaged $81.2 per barrel ($/b), down 21% compared to the first quarter 2022 (102.2 $/b). In a falling oil price environment, the average selling price of the crude oil grade marketed by TotalEnergies EP Gabon averaged to 74.3 $/b, receding 24% compared to the first quarter 2022.
Production
TotalEnergies EP Gabon's crude oil production averaged in the first quarter 2023 16.2 kb/d, slightly down compared to the first quarter 2022 (16.5 kb/d) mainly due to lower availability of the gas lift compressor on Torpille field, and the natural decline of the fields.
Revenue
The first quarter 2023 revenues amounted to $105 million, down 44% compared to the first quarter 2022, mainly due to the lower average selling price of the crude oil grade marketed by TotalEnergies EP Gabon and lower volumes sold related to a less favorable lifting program.
Funds Generated from Operations
Funds generated from operations amounted to $58 million in the first quarter of 2023, compared to $30 million in the first quarter of 2022. It was positively impacted, between the compared periods, by the working capital variation ($ +30 million) due to the favorable price effect evolution.
Capital Expenditure
Capital expenditure amounted to $24 million in the first quarter 2023, compared to $6 million in the first quarter 2022, mainly due to the increase pace of wells intervention campaign preparation and direct greenhouse gas emission related to our activities reduction projects.
Net Income
The first quarter 2023 net income amounted to $22 million, stable compared the first quarter 2022 ($21 million). It was positively impacted by lower operating costs, amortization and current tax expense, and negatively by the receding of the average selling price and volumes of crude oil marketed by TotalEnergies EP Gabon.
