GAZPROM NEFT NET PROFIT UP TO 49.6%

ПРИБЫЛЬ ГАЗПРОМ НЕФТИ БОЛЬШЕ НА 49.6%

GAZPROM NEFT - For the first six months of 2018 Gazprom Neft achieved revenue** growth of 24.4% year-on-year, at one trillion, 137.7 billion rubles (RUB1,137,700,000,000). The Company achieved a 49.8% year-on-year increase in adjusted EBITDA, to RUB368.2 billion. This performance reflected positive market conditions for oil and oil products, production growth at the Company's new projects, and effective management initiatives. Net profit attributable to Gazprom Neft PJSC shareholders grew 49.6% year on year, to RUB166.4 billion. Growth in the Company's operating cash flow, as well as the completion of key infrastructure investments at new upstream projects, delivered positive free cash flow of RUB47.5 billion for 1H 2018.

Total hydrocarbon production (including Gazprom Neft's share in production at joint enterprises) in the first six months of 2018 amounted to 44.9 million tonnes of oil equivalent (mtoe), an increase of 2% year-on-year. This was driven by higher production at new fields (Novoportovskoye and Vostochno-Messoyakhskoye) and an increase in Gazprom Neft's interest in Arktikgaz, from 46.6% to 50% in March 2018.

First-half refining volumes increased by 9,8%, having been restored following the completion of a planned refinery maintenance in 1H 2017. Light petroleum product output also outperformed as a result of improved refining efficiency. The Company also increased its sales of oil products through premium sales channels, by 6.4% year-on-year, to 12.8 million tonnes.

Alexander Dyukov, Chairman of the Gazprom Neft Management Board, commented: "Gazprom Neft has seen a 1.5-fold increase in its operating profit in the first half of 2018, once again confirming its market-leading position in terms of financial growth. In an environment of curtailed oil production, the company has focused on increasing operating efficiency: industry trends and inflationary factors notwithstanding, Gazprom Neft reduced the unit costs of crude production at mature fields by eight percent year-on-year, as well as ensuring optimum refining volumes in current marketing conditions, and increasing sales of oil products."

The same company's 170,000 barrel a day Arctic Gate terminal started operations this year and exports about 150,000 barrels a day from the Novoportovskoye field. Crude from all three terminals is shipped in shuttle tankers to Murmansk, from where cargoes are sent on larger vessels to Europe.

Top Russian producer Rosneft expects the share of hard-to-recover oil production to rise to 11 percent of its total crude output by 2020, from 7 percent this year.

 ГАЗПРОМ НЕФТЬ: СНИЖЕНИЕ 6,2%

GAZPROM NEFT DOWN 6.2%

Rising hydrocarbon production, retail sales and efficient management drove a Y-o-Y increase in adjusted EBITDA* of 9.3% (RUB 312 bln) for 9M 2015. A 0.6% Y-o-Y decline in sales was driven by the global drop in oil prices. Net income attributable to the shareholders of Gazprom Neft fell by 6.2% Y-o-Y to RUB 130.9 bln. The negative impact of foreign exchange rate differences in loan revaluations held back net income growth.
