NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.  Basis of Presentation

The financial statements included in this report reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.  The unaudited results of operations for the interim periods reported are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

The financial statements were prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim reporting.  As permitted under those rules, certain notes or other financial information that are normally required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements.  These statements, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

On January 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 842, Leases.  ASC 842 supersedes ASC 840 and requires the recognition of right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease obligations for all leases with lease terms greater than one year, including leases previously treated as operating leases under ASC 840.  We adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective method which allows the standard to be applied prospectively.  No cumulative effect adjustment was recorded to Retained Earnings at January 1, 2019, and comparative financial statements for periods prior to adoption of ASC 842 were not affected.  We elected to apply a number of practical expedients permitted by the standard, including not needing to reassess: (i) whether existing contracts are (or contain) leases, (ii) whether the lease classification for existing leases would differ under ASC 842, (iii) whether initial direct costs incurred for existing leases are capitalizable under ASC 842, and (iv) land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under ASC 840.  We also elected to not recognize a lease liability or ROU asset for short-term leases as defined in ASC 842.  This standard does not apply to leases acquired for oil and gas producing activities that are accounted for under ASC 932, Extractive Activities – Oil and Gas.

The adoption of ASC 842 did not have an impact on our Statement of Consolidated Income or Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows.  The impact of adoption on our Consolidated Balance Sheet on January 1, 2019, was as follows:

New Accounting Pronouncements:  In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.  This ASU makes changes to the impairment model for trade receivables, net investments in leases, debt securities, loans and certain other instruments.  The standard requires the use of a forward-looking "expected loss" model compared to the current "incurred loss" model.  We expect to adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2020 when the standard becomes effective.  We continue to evaluate this ASU but do not believe it will have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

2.  Leases

We determine if an arrangement is an operating lease or a finance lease at inception by evaluating whether the contract conveys the right to control an identified asset during the period of use.  ROU assets represent our right to use an identified asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent our obligation to make payments as set forth in the lease arrangement.  ROU assets and liabilities are recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at the commencement date based on the present value of the minimum lease payments over the lease term.  Where the implicit discount rate in a lease is not readily determinable, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date for determining the present value of the minimum lease payments.  The lease term used in measurement of our lease obligations includes options to extend or terminate the lease when, in our judgment, it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.  Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are included in the measurement of lease obligations using the index or rate at the commencement date.  Variable lease payments that vary because of changes in facts or circumstances after the commencement date of the lease are not included in the minimum lease payments used to measure lease obligations.  We have agreements that include financial obligations for lease and nonlease components.  For purposes of measuring lease obligations, we have elected not to separate nonlease components from lease components for the following classes of assets:  drilling rigs, office space, offshore vessels, and aircraft.  We apply a portfolio approach to account for operating lease ROU assets and liabilities for certain vehicles, railcars, field equipment and office equipment leases.

Finance lease cost is recognized as amortization of the ROU asset and interest expense on the lease liability.  Operating lease cost is generally recognized on a straight-line basis.  Operating lease costs for drilling rigs used to drill development wells and successful exploration wells are capitalized.  Operating lease cost for other ROU assets used in oil and gas producing activities are either capitalized or expensed on a straight-line basis based on the nature of operation for which the ROU asset is utilized.  

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet as permitted under ASC 842.  We recognize lease cost for short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.  Some of our leases include one or more options to renew.  The renewal option is at our sole discretion and is not included in the lease term for measurement of the lease obligation unless we are reasonably certain, at the commencement date of the lease, to renew the lease.

Operating and finance leases presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2019 were as follows:

(a)

Finance lease ROU assets have a cost of $384 million and accumulated amortization of $62 million.

Lease obligations represent 100% of the present value of future minimum lease payments in the lease arrangement.  Where we have contracted directly with a lessor in our role as operator of an unincorporated oil and gas venture, we bill our partners their proportionate share for reimbursements as payments under lease agreements become due pursuant to the terms of our joint operating and other agreements.

The nature of our leasing arrangements at June 30, 2019 was as follows:

Operating leases:  In the normal course of business, we primarily lease drilling rigs, office space, logistical assets (offshore vessels, aircraft, and shorebases), and equipment.

Finance leases:  In 2018, we entered into a sale and lease-back arrangement for a floating storage and offloading vessel to handle produced condensate at North Malay Basin, offshore Peninsular Malaysia (Hess operated – 50%).  No gain or loss was recognized from the sale transaction.  The remaining lease term utilized in the lease obligation is 14.3 years.

(a)

Short-term lease cost is primarily attributable to equipment used in global exploration, development, and production activities.  Future short-term lease costs will vary based on activity levels of our operated assets.

(b)

Variable lease costs for the drilling rig leases result from differences in the minimum rate and the actual usage of the ROU asset during the lease period.  Variable lease costs for logistical assets result from differences in stated monthly rates and total charges reflecting the actual usage of the ROU asset during the lease period.  Variable lease costs for our office leases represent common area maintenance charges which have not been separated from lease components.

(c)

We sublease certain of our office space to third parties under our head lease.

The above lease costs represent 100% of the lease payments due for the period, including where we as operator have contracted directly with suppliers.  As the payments under lease agreements where we are operator become due, we bill our partners their proportionate share for reimbursement pursuant to the terms of our joint operating agreements.  Reimbursements are not reflected in the table above.  Certain lease costs above associated with exploration and development activities are included in capital expenditures.

On January 31, 2019, the Corporation’s 8.00% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (Preferred Stock) automatically converted into shares of common stock at a rate of 21.822 shares of common stock per share of Preferred Stock.  In total, the Preferred Stock was converted into approximately 12.5 million shares of common stock.  In connection with the Preferred Stock offering in 2016, the Corporation entered into capped call transactions to reduce the potential dilution to the Corporation’s common stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, subject to a cap.  The Corporation received approximately 0.9 million shares of common stock upon settlement of the capped call transactions.  As a result, the net number of common shares issued by the Corporation upon conversion of the Preferred Stock was approximately 11.6 million shares.

Balance at June 30, 2019

 

$

Reclassifications to wells, facilities and equipment based on the determination of proved reserves resulted from sanction of the second phase of development for the Liza Field, offshore Guyana.  Capitalized exploratory well costs capitalized for greater than one year following completion of drilling were $349 million at June 30, 2019 and primarily related to:  

Guyana: Approximately 45% of the capitalized well costs in excess of one year relates to eight successful exploration wells where hydrocarbons were encountered on the Stabroek Block (Hess 30%), offshore Guyana.  The operator plans further appraisal drilling for certain fields and is conducting pre-development planning for additional phases of development beyond the two existing sanctioned phases of development.

Gulf of Mexico: Approximately 35% of the capitalized well costs in excess of one year relates to the appraisal of the northern portion of the Shenzi Field (Hess 28%) in the Gulf of Mexico, where hydrocarbons were encountered in the fourth quarter of 2015.  Following exploration and appraisal drilling activities completed by the operator in prior years on adjacent blocks to the north of our Shenzi blocks, the operator is planning to acquire 3D seismic in 2019 for use in development planning of the northern portion of the Shenzi Field.

Joint Development Area (JDA):  Approximately 10% of the capitalized well costs in excess of one year relates to the JDA (Hess 50%) in the Gulf of Thailand, where hydrocarbons were encountered in three successful exploration wells drilled in the western part of Block A-18.  The operator has submitted a development plan concept to the regulator to facilitate commercial negotiations for an extension of the existing gas sales contract to include development of the western part of the Block.

Malaysia:  Approximately 10% of the capitalized well costs in excess of one year relates to the North Malay Basin (Hess 50%), offshore Peninsular Malaysia, where hydrocarbons were encountered in four successful exploration wells in the second quarter of 2018 and one successful exploration well drilled in the fourth quarter of 2015.  In 2019, we are continuing to conduct subsurface evaluations for consideration in future phases of field development.

7.  Hess Infrastructure Partners LP

We consolidate the activities of Hess Infrastructure Partners LP (HIP), a 50/50 joint venture between Hess Corporation and Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP), which qualifies as a variable interest entity (VIE) under U.S. GAAP.  We have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE, as defined in the accounting standards, since we have the power, through our 50% ownership, to direct those activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of HIP.

As of June 30, 2019, the Midstream segment is comprised of HIP, which owns the general partner of Hess Midstream Partners LP (HESM).  HESM owns an approximate 20% controlling interest in the operating companies that comprise our midstream joint venture while HIP owns the remaining 80%, other than a water services business that is wholly owned by HIP.  At June 30, 2019, HIP liabilities totaling $1,279 million (December 31, 2018: $1,105 million) are on a nonrecourse basis to Hess Corporation, while HIP assets available to settle the obligations of HIP include cash and cash equivalents totaling $17 million (December 31, 2018: $109 million) and property, plant and equipment with a carrying value of $2,863 million (December 31, 2018: $2,664 million).

On March 1, 2019, HIP completed the acquisition of Hess’ water services business for $225 million in cash.  As a result of this transaction between entities under common control, we recorded an after-tax gain of $78 million in additional paid-in-capital with an offsetting reduction to noncontrolling interest to reflect the adjustment to GIP’s noncontrolling interest in HIP.

On March 22, 2019, HIP and HESM acquired crude oil and gas gathering assets, and HIP acquired water gathering assets of Summit Midstream Partners LP’s Tioga Gathering System for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $90 million, with the potential for an additional $10 million of contingent payments in future periods subject to certain future performance metrics.

In 2019, we expect to contribute $40 million to our funded pension plans.  Through June 30, 2019, we have contributed $20 million.

9.  Debt

Hess Corporation:  In the second quarter of 2019, the Corporation entered into a new fully undrawn $3.5 billion revolving credit facility with a maturity date of May 15, 2023, which replaced the Corporation’s previous revolving credit facility maturing in January 2021.  The new facility can be used for borrowings and letters of credit.  Borrowings on the new facility will generally bear interest at 1.30% above the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), though the interest rate is subject to adjustment if the Corporation’s credit rating changes.  The facility is subject to customary representations, warranties and covenants, including a financial covenant limiting the ratio of Total Consolidated Debt to Total Capitalization (as such terms are defined in the credit agreement for the facility) of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries to 0.650 to 1.000, and customary events of default.

In the first quarter of 2018, we paid $415 million to redeem $350 million principal amount of 8.125% notes due 2019 and to purchase other notes with a carrying value of $38 million.  Concurrent with the redemption of the 2019 notes, we terminated interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $350 million.  In the second quarter of 2018, we paid $138 million to purchase notes with a carrying value of $112 million.  As a result, we recorded losses on debt extinguishment of $53 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Hess Midstream:  In the first quarter of 2019, HIP and HESM borrowed a total of $199 million from their revolving credit facilities of which $39 million was repaid in the second quarter of 2019.

11.  Guarantees and Contingencies

We are subject to loss contingencies with respect to various claims, lawsuits and other proceedings.  A liability is recognized in our consolidated financial statements when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.  If the risk of loss is probable, but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated or the risk of loss is only reasonably possible, a liability is not accrued; however, we disclose the nature of those contingencies.  We cannot predict with certainty if, how or when existing claims, lawsuits and proceedings will be resolved or what the eventual relief, if any, may be, particularly for proceedings that are in their early stages of development or where plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages.  

We, along with many companies that have been or continue to be engaged in refining and marketing of gasoline, have been a party to lawsuits and claims related to the use of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) in gasoline.  A series of similar lawsuits, many involving water utilities or governmental entities, were filed in jurisdictions across the U.S. against producers of MTBE and petroleum refiners who produced gasoline containing MTBE, including us.  The principal allegation in all cases was that gasoline containing MTBE was a defective product and that these producers and refiners are strictly liable in proportion to their share of the gasoline market for damage to groundwater resources and are required to take remedial action to ameliorate the alleged effects on the environment of releases of MTBE.  The majority of the cases asserted against us have been settled.  There are three remaining active cases, filed by Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Maryland.  In June 2014, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania filed a lawsuit alleging that we and all major oil companies with operations in Pennsylvania, have damaged the groundwater by introducing thereto gasoline with MTBE.  The Pennsylvania suit has been forwarded to the existing MTBE multidistrict litigation pending in the Southern District of New York.  In September 2016, the State of Rhode Island also filed a lawsuit alleging that we and other major oil companies damaged the groundwater in Rhode Island by introducing thereto gasoline with MTBE.  The suit filed in Rhode Island is proceeding in Federal court.  In December 2017, the State of Maryland

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

filed a lawsuit alleging that we and other major oil companies damaged the groundwater in Maryland by introducing thereto gasoline with MTBE.  The suit filed in Maryland state court, was served on us in January 2018 and has been removed to Federal court by the defendants.

In September 2003, we received a directive from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) to remediate contamination in the sediments of the Lower Passaic River.  The NJDEP is also seeking natural resource damages.  The directive, insofar as it affects us, relates to alleged releases from a petroleum bulk storage terminal in Newark, New Jersey we previously owned.  We and over 70 companies entered into an Administrative Order on Consent with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to study the same contamination; this work remains ongoing.  We and other parties settled a cost recovery claim by the State of New Jersey and agreed with the EPA to fund remediation of a portion of the site.  On March 4, 2016, the EPA issued a Record of Decision (ROD) in respect of the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River, selecting a remedy that includes bank-to-bank dredging at an estimated cost of $1.38 billion.  The ROD does not address the upper nine miles of the Lower Passaic River or the Newark Bay, which may require additional remedial action.  In addition, the Federal trustees for natural resources have begun a separate assessment of damages to natural resources in the Passaic River.  Given that the EPA has not selected a remedy for the entirety of the Lower Passaic River or the Newark Bay, total remedial costs cannot be reliably estimated at this time.  Based on currently known facts and circumstances, we do not believe that this matter will result in a significant liability to us because our former terminal did not store or use contaminants which are of concern in the river sediments and could not have contributed contamination along the river’s length.  Further, there are numerous other parties who we expect will bear the cost of remediation and damages.

In March 2014, we received an Administrative Order from the EPA requiring us and 26 other parties to undertake the Remedial Design for the remedy selected by the EPA for the Gowanus Canal Superfund Site in Brooklyn, New York.  The remedy includes dredging of surface sediments and the placement of a cap over the deeper sediments throughout the Canal and in-situ stabilization of certain contaminated sediments that will remain in place below the cap.  The EPA’s original estimate was that this remedy would cost $506 million; however, the ultimate costs that will be incurred in connection with the design and implementation of the remedy remain uncertain.  Our alleged liability derives from our former ownership and operation of a fuel oil terminal and connected shipbuilding and repair facility adjacent to the Canal.  We agreed to comply with the EPA Administrative Order and are currently contributing funding for the Remedial Design based on an allocation of costs among the parties determined by a third-party expert.  

On September 28, 2017, we received a general notice letter and offer to settle from the EPA relating to Superfund claims for the Ector Drum, Inc. Superfund Site in Odessa, Texas.  The EPA and Texas Commission on Environmental Quality took clean-up and response action at the site commencing in 2014 and concluded in December 2015.  The site was determined to have improperly stored industrial waste, including drums with oily liquids.  The total clean-up cost incurred by the EPA was approximately $3.5 million.  We are negotiating a voluntary settlement with the EPA for an amount that is not expected to be material.

We periodically receive notices from the EPA that we are a “potential responsible party” under the Superfund legislation with respect to various waste disposal sites.  Under this legislation, all potentially responsible parties may be jointly and severally liable.  For any site for which we have received such a notice, the EPA’s claims or assertions of liability against us relating to these sites have not been fully developed, or the EPA’s claims have been settled or a settlement is under consideration, in all cases for amounts that are not material.  The ultimate impact of these proceedings, and of any related proceedings by private parties, on our business or accounts cannot be predicted at this time due to the large number of other potentially responsible parties and the speculative nature of clean-up cost estimates, but is not expected to be material. 

From time to time, we are involved in other judicial and administrative proceedings, including proceedings relating to other environmental matters.  We cannot predict with certainty if, how or when such proceedings will be resolved or what the eventual relief, if any, may be, particularly for proceedings that are in their early stages of development or where plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages.  Numerous issues may need to be resolved, including through potentially lengthy discovery and determination of important factual matters before a loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated for any proceeding.

Subject to the foregoing, in management’s opinion, based upon currently known facts and circumstances, the outcome of lawsuits, claims and proceedings, including the matters disclosed above, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.  However, we could incur judgments, enter into settlements, or revise our opinion regarding the outcome of certain matters, and such developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the period in which the amounts are accrued and our cash flows in the period in which the amounts are paid.

(a)

Commencing January 1, 2019, management changed its measurement of segment earnings to reflect income taxes on a post U.S. tax consolidation and valuation allowance assessment basis.  In 2018, the provision for income taxes in the Midstream segment was presented before consolidating its operations with other U.S. activities of the Corporation and prior to evaluating realizability of net U.S. deferred taxes.  An offsetting impact was presented in the E&P segment.  If 2018 segment results were prepared on a basis consistent with 2019, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, Midstream segment net income attributable to Hess Corporation would have been $39 million and $76 million, respectively, and E&P segment net income (loss) attributable to Hess Corporation would have been income of $22 million and a loss of $12 million, respectively.

13.  Financial Risk Management Activities

In the normal course of our business, we are exposed to commodity risks related to changes in the prices of crude oil and natural gas as well as changes in interest rates and foreign currency values.  Financial risk management activities include transactions designed to reduce risk in the selling prices of crude oil or natural gas we produce or by reducing our exposure to foreign currency or interest rate movements.  Generally, futures, swaps or option strategies may be used to fix the forward selling price of a portion of our crude oil or natural gas production.  Forward contracts may also be used to purchase certain currencies in which we conduct business with the intent of reducing exposure to foreign currency fluctuations.  At June 30, 2019, these forward contracts relate to the British Pound.  Interest rate swaps may be used to convert interest payments on certain long-term debt from fixed to floating rates.

We present gross notional amounts of both long and short positions in the table below.  These amounts include long and short positions that offset in closed positions and have not reached contractual maturity.  Gross notional amounts do not quantify risk or represent assets or liabilities of the Corporation but are used in the calculation of cash settlements under the contracts.

All fair values in the table above are based on Level 2 inputs.

Derivative contracts designated as hedging instruments:

Crude oil derivatives:  In the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the impact from crude oil hedging contracts on Sales and other operating revenues was a decrease of $14 million and an increase of $1 million, respectively.  Crude oil price hedging contracts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 decreased Sales and other operating revenues by $44 million and $74 million, respectively.  At June 30, 2019, pre-tax deferred gains in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to outstanding crude oil price hedging contracts were $17 million, all of which will be reclassified into earnings during the remainder of 2019 as the originally hedged crude oil sales are recognized in earnings.  

Interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges:  At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had interest rate swaps with gross notional amounts totaling $100 million, which were designated as fair value hedges where we have converted interest payments on certain long-term debt from fixed to floating rates.  Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps and the hedged fixed-rate debt are recorded in Interest expense in the Statement of Consolidated Income.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the change in fair value of interest rate swaps was a decrease in the liability of $2 million and $3 million, respectively, compared with an increase in liability of $1 million and $4 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, with a corresponding adjustment in the carrying value of the hedged fixed-rate debt.

Derivative contracts not designated as hedging instruments:

Foreign exchange:  Foreign exchange gains and losses which are reported in Other, net in Revenues and non-operating income in the Statement of Consolidated Income were losses of $2 million and gains of $3 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, compared with losses of $5 million and less than $1 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.  A component of foreign exchange gains and losses are the results of foreign exchange derivative contracts that are not designated as hedges which amounted to gains of $1 million and $1 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, compared with losses of $3 million and $1 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

Crude oil derivatives:  In the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, noncash adjustments to de-designated crude oil price hedging contracts decreased Sales and other operating revenues by $8 million and $16 million, respectively.

Fair Value Measurement:  

We have other short-term financial instruments, primarily cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, for which the carrying value approximated fair value at June 30, 2019.  At June 30, 2019, total long-term debt, which was substantially comprised of fixed-rate debt instruments, had a carrying value of $6,525 million and a fair value of $7,264 million based on Level 2 inputs.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read together with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 included under Item 1. Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below and those discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Overview

Hess Corporation is a global Exploration and Production (E&P) company engaged in exploration, development, production, transportation, purchase and sale of crude oil, natural gas liquids (NGLs), and natural gas with production operations located primarily in the United States (U.S.), Denmark, the Malaysia/Thailand Joint Development Area (JDA) and Malaysia.  We conduct exploration activities primarily offshore Guyana, Suriname, Canada and in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.  At the Stabroek Block (Hess 30%), offshore Guyana, we have participated in thirteen significant discoveries.  The Liza Phase 1 development was sanctioned in 2017 and is expected to startup by the first quarter of 2020 with production reaching up to 120,000 gross barrels of oil per day (bopd).  The Liza Phase 2 development was sanctioned in the second quarter of 2019 and is expected to startup by mid-2022 with production reaching up to 220,000 gross bopd.  The discovered resources to date on the Stabroek Block are expected to underpin the potential for at least five floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels producing more than 750,000 gross bopd by 2025.

Our Midstream operating segment provides fee-based services, including gathering, compressing and processing natural gas and fractionating NGLs; gathering, terminaling, loading and transporting crude oil and NGLs; storing and terminaling propane, and water handling services primarily in the Bakken and Three Forks Shale plays in the Williston Basin area of North Dakota.

Second Quarter Highlights and Outlook

We project our E&P capital and exploratory expenditures will be approximately $2.8 billion in 2019, which is down from original guidance of $2.9 billion.  Capital investment for our Midstream operations is expected to be $430 million including assets acquired from Summit Midstream Partners LP.  Oil and gas production in 2019, excluding Libya, is forecast to be in the range of 275,000 to 280,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd), which is the upper end of our previous guidance range of 270,000 boepd to 280,000 boepd.  We have crude oil put option contracts for the remainder of 2019 that establish a WTI monthly floor price of $60 per barrel for 95,000 bopd.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $913 million in the first six months of 2019, compared with $635 million in the first six months of 2018.  Net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities were $1,195 million in the first six months of 2019 and $860 million in the first six months of 2018.  Capital expenditures were $1,336 million in the first six months of 2019 and $961 million in the first six months of 2018.  Excluding our Midstream segment, we ended the second quarter of 2019 with approximately $2.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents.  Based on current forward strip crude oil prices for 2019, we expect cash flow from operating activities and cash and cash equivalents existing at June 30, 2019 will be sufficient to fund our capital investment program and dividends through the end of 2019.

Second Quarter Results

In the second quarter of 2019, we incurred a net loss of $6 million, compared with a net loss of $130 million in the second quarter of 2018.  Excluding items affecting comparability of earnings between periods on pages 27 to 28, we incurred an adjusted net loss of $28 million in the second quarter of 2019, compared with an adjusted net loss of $56 million in the second quarter of 2018.  The improved second quarter 2019 results, compared to the prior-year quarter, primarily reflect higher U.S. crude oil net production and reduced exploration expenses, partially offset by the impact of lower realized selling prices and higher depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expenses.

Exploration and Production Results

In the second quarter of 2019, E&P had net income of $68 million, compared with net income of $31 million in the second quarter of 2018.  Excluding items affecting comparability of earnings between periods, the adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2019 was $46 million, compared with an adjusted net income of $21 million in 2018.  Total net production, excluding Libya, averaged 273,000 boepd in the second quarter of 2019, compared with 247,000 boepd in the second quarter of 2018 which included 13,000 boepd from a divested asset.  The average realized crude oil selling price, including hedging, was $60.45 per barrel, down from $62.65 per barrel in the second quarter of 2018.  The average realized NGLs selling price in the second quarter of 2019 was $12.18 per barrel, down from $20.51 per barrel in the prior-year quarter, while the average realized natural gas selling price was $3.92 per thousand cubic feet (mcf), down from $4.12 per mcf in the second quarter of 2018.

Overview (continued)

The following is an update of our ongoing E&P activities:

Producing E&P assets:

 

In North Dakota, net production from the Bakken oil shale play averaged 140,000 boepd for the second quarter of 2019 (2018 Q2: 114,000 boepd), due to increased drilling activity and improved well performance.  In the second quarter of 2019, we operated six rigs, drilled 39 wells, and brought 39 new wells on production.  During 2019 we expect to bring approximately 160 new wells on production.  We forecast net production for full year 2019 to be in the range of 140,000 boepd to 145,000 boepd, which is the upper end of our previous guidance range of 135,000 boepd to 145,000 boepd.

 

In the Gulf of Mexico, net production for the second quarter of 2019 averaged 65,000 boepd (2018 Q2: 47,000 boepd), primarily reflecting higher production from the Conger Field that was impacted by the shutdown of the third-party operated Enchilada platform during the prior-year quarter and higher production at the Penn State Field.  In May 2019, the Conger Field was temporarily shut-in for unplanned maintenance at the Enchilada platform that reduced second quarter 2019 net production by approximately 4,000 boepd.

 

In the Gulf of Thailand, net production from Block A-18 of the JDA averaged 35,000 boepd for second quarter of 2019 (2018 Q2: 37,000 boepd), including contribution from unitized acreage in Malaysia, while net production from North Malay Basin, offshore Peninsular Malaysia, averaged 24,000 boepd for second quarter of 2019 (2018 Q2: 26,000 boepd).

Other E&P assets:

 

At the Stabroek Block (Hess - 30 %), offshore Guyana, the second phase of development at the Liza Field was sanctioned by the partners following regulatory approval from the government of Guyana.  Liza Phase 2 will utilize the Liza Unity FPSO, which will have the capacity to produce up to 220,000 gross bopd.  Six drill centers are planned with a total of 30 wells, including 15 production wells, nine water injection wells and six gas injection wells.  First oil is expected by mid-2022.  The development is expected to have a gross capital cost of approximately $6 billion, including a lease capitalization cost of approximately $1.6 billion for the FPSO.  Excluding pre-sanction and lease costs, the Corporation’s net share of development costs is forecast to be approximately $1.6 billion, of which $210 million is included in our 2019 capital and exploratory budget.

Liza Phase 1 remains on track to achieve first oil by the first quarter of 2020.  It is expected to produce up to 120,000 gross bopd at peak rates utilizing the Liza Destiny FPSO, which is expected to arrive offshore Guyana in September 2019.

Planning is underway for a third phase of development at the Payara Field, which is expected to produce between 180,000 and 220,000 gross bopd with first oil as early as 2023.  

Exploration and appraisal activity on the Stabroek Block in the second quarter of 2019 was as follows:

 

o

Yellowtail:  The Yellowtail-1 well encountered approximately 292 feet of high-quality oil-bearing sandstone reservoir and is located approximately 6 miles northwest of the Tilapia discovery.  As the fifth discovery in the greater Turbot area it underpins another potential major development hub.

 

o

Hammerhead:  The Hammerhead-2 appraisal well, located approximately 0.9 miles from the Hammerhead-1 discovery well, and the Hammerhead-3 appraisal well, located approximately 1.9 miles from Hammerhead-1, were both successfully drilled and encountered high quality, oil bearing sandstone reservoir.  A successful drill stem test was also performed on Hammerhead-3.  The appraisal results will be evaluated for potential future development.

The Stena Carron drillship is currently drilling a second well at the Ranger discovery, while the Noble Bob Douglas and the Noble Tom Madden drillships are conducting drilling operations for the Liza Phase 1 development.  The Noble Tom Madden is next expected to drill the Tripletail exploration well, which is in the greater Turbot area, beginning in August 2019.  The operator, Esso Exploration and Production Guyana Limited, plans to add another drillship, the Noble Don Taylor, in the fourth quarter, bringing the number of drillships offshore Guyana to four.

Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Hess Corporation is a non-GAAP financial measure, which we define as reported net income (loss) attributable to Hess Corporation excluding items identified as affecting comparability of earnings between periods.  Management uses adjusted net income (loss) to evaluate the Corporation’s operating performance and believes that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing this measure, which excludes certain items that management believes are not directly related to ongoing operations and are not indicative of future business trends and operations.  

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities presented in this report is a non-GAAP liquidity measure, which we define as reported net cash provided by (used in) operating activities excluding changes in operating assets and liabilities.  Management uses net cash provided by (used in) operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities to evaluate the Corporation’s underlying cash-generation performance and believes that investors’ understanding of our cash-generation ability is enhanced by disclosing this measure, which excludes working capital and other movements that distort assessment of business liquidity performance over time.

These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income (loss) and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.

In the following discussion and elsewhere in this report, the financial effects of certain transactions are disclosed on an after-tax basis.  Management reviews segment earnings on an after-tax basis and uses after-tax amounts in its review of variances in segment earnings.  Management believes that after-tax amounts are a preferable method of explaining variances in earnings, since they show the entire effect of a transaction rather than only the pre-tax amount.  After-tax amounts are determined by applying the income tax rate in each tax jurisdiction to pre-tax amounts.

Selling prices in the United States are adjusted for certain processing and distribution fees included in Marketing expenses.  Excluding these fees Worldwide selling prices for the second quarter of 2019 would be $63.33 (Q2 2018: $65.66) per barrel for crude oil (including hedging), $64.25 (Q2 2018: $69.29) per barrel for crude oil (excluding hedging), $12.38 (Q2 2018: $20.73) per barrel for NGLs and $3.99 (Q2 2018: $4.20) per mcf for natural gas.  Excluding these fees Worldwide selling prices for the first six months of 2019 would be $61.32 (2018: $64.05) per barrel for crude oil (including hedging), $61.27 (2018: $67.12) per barrel for crude oil (excluding hedging), $15.37 (2018: $21.02) per barrel for NGLs and $4.25 (2018: $4.07) per mcf for natural gas.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the impact from crude oil price hedging contracts on Sales and other operating revenues was a decrease of $14 million and an increase of $1 million, respectively.  Crude oil price hedging contracts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 decreased Sales and other operating revenues by $52 million and $90 million, respectively.  As of June 30, 2019, we have crude oil put options for calendar year 2019 that establish a WTI monthly floor price of $60 per barrel on 95,000 bopd.

(a)

Net production from the Bakken was 140,000 boepd and 135,000 boepd in the second quarter and first six months of 2019, respectively, compared with 114,000 boepd and 112,000 boepd in the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively.

(b)

In August 2018, the Corporation sold its joint venture interests in the Utica shale play in eastern Ohio.  Net production was 13,000 boepd in the second quarter and first six months of 2018.

(c)

Reflects natural gas production converted on the basis of relative energy content (six mcf equals one barrel).  Barrel of oil equivalence does not necessarily result in price equivalence as the equivalent price of natural gas on a barrel of oil equivalent basis has been substantially lower than the corresponding price for crude oil over the recent past.  In addition, NGLs do not sell at prices equivalent to crude oil.  See the average selling prices in the table on page 24.

We forecast net production, excluding Libya, to average between 270,000 boepd and 280,000 boepd for the third quarter and to average between 275,000 boepd and 280,000 boepd for the full year of 2019.

United States:  North Dakota net production was higher in the second quarter and first six months of 2019, compared to the corresponding periods in 2018, primarily due to ongoing drilling activity and improved well performance at the Bakken.  Offshore net production was higher in the second quarter and first six months of 2019, compared to the corresponding periods in 2018, primarily due to higher production from the Conger and Penn State fields that were impacted by a prior-year shutdown of the third-party operated Enchilada platform.

International:  Net production was lower in the second quarter of 2019, compared to the corresponding period in 2018, due to a planned maintenance shutdown at the North Malay Basin and lower buyer nominations at JDA in the second quarter of 2019.  Net production was higher in the first six months of 2019, compared to the corresponding period in 2018, primarily reflecting downtime from planned maintenance of condensate export equipment at the North Malay Basin in the first quarter of 2018.

Marketing, including purchased oil and gas:  Marketing expense is mainly comprised of costs to purchase crude oil, NGLs and natural gas from our partners in Hess operated wells or other third parties, primarily in the U.S., and transportation and other distribution costs for U.S. marketing activities.  The increase in the second quarter and first six months of 2019, compared to the same periods in 2018, primarily reflects the purchase of higher volumes.

Cash Operating Costs:  Cash operating costs in the second quarter of 2019, consisting of operating costs and expenses, production and severance taxes and E&P general and administrative expenses, were flat compared with the second quarter of 2018.  Excluding items affecting comparability of earnings, cash operating costs for the first six months of 2019 decreased, compared with the prior-year period primarily due to lower workover expenses.  Cash operating costs on a per-unit basis were also lower, reflecting the impact of increased production from the Bakken and Gulf of Mexico.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization:  DD&A expenses were higher in the second quarter and first six months of 2019 on an absolute basis, compared to the same periods in 2018, primarily due to higher net production volumes in the Bakken and Gulf of Mexico.  DD&A expense on a per unit basis was marginally up in the second quarter and first six months of 2019, compared with the same periods in 2018, due to the mix of production.

Unit Costs:  Unit cost per barrel of oil equivalent (boe) information is based on total net production volumes and excludes items affecting comparability of earnings as disclosed below.  Actual and forecast unit costs per boe are as follows:

Income Taxes:  Income tax expense is comprised primarily of taxes in Libya in the second quarter and first six months of both 2019 and 2018.  Excluding items affecting comparability of earnings between periods and Libyan operations, the effective income tax rate for E&P operations in the second quarter and first six months of 2019 was an expense of 15% and 6%, respectively.  The tax rates in the second quarter and first six months of 2018 were not meaningful as results on a pre-tax basis were essentially break-even.  Excluding items affecting comparability of earnings between periods and Libyan operations, the E&P effective income tax rate is expected to be an expense in the range of 0% to 4% for the third quarter of 2019 and for the full year of 2019.

Items Affecting Comparability of Earnings Between Periods:

Gain on asset sale, net:  In the second quarter of 2019, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $22 million ($22 million after income taxes) associated with the sale of our remaining acreage in the Utica shale play.  In the second quarter of 2018, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $10 million ($10 million after income taxes) associated with the sale of our interests in Ghana.

Employee severance:  In the first quarter of 2018, we recorded a net after-tax severance charge of $37 million related to a cost reduction program.  The pre-tax amounts are reported in Operating costs and expenses ($19 million), Exploration expenses, including dry holes and lease impairment ($3 million) and General and administrative expenses ($15 million), in the Statement of Consolidated Income

Consolidated Results of Operations (continued)

Sales and other operating revenues for the second quarter and first six months of 2019 increased, compared to the corresponding periods in 2018, primarily due to higher throughput volumes and tariff rates, and increased rail transportation and water trucking revenues associated with third party charges.  Operating costs and expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 2019 increased, compared to the corresponding periods in 2018, due to higher maintenance activity, and increased third party rail transportation and water trucking charges.

Net income attributable to Hess Corporation from the Midstream segment is estimated to be approximately $40 million in the third quarter of 2019 and in the range of $170 million to $175 million for the full year of 2019.

Corporate and other expenses, excluding items affecting comparability, were higher in the second quarter of 2019, compared to the corresponding period in 2018, primarily due to lower non-operating revenue in the second quarter of 2019.  Corporate and other expenses, excluding items affecting comparability, were higher in the first six months of 2019, compared to the corresponding period in 2018, primarily due to lower interest income and other non-operating income.  Interest expense, net was lower in the second quarter and first six months of 2019, compared with corresponding periods in 2018, primarily due to higher capitalized interest.  

Third quarter 2019 corporate expenses are expected to be in the range of $25 million to $30 million, and interest expense is expected to be in the range of $75 million to $80 million.  We estimate corporate expenses for full year 2019 to be in the range of $110 million to $115 million, and interest expense to be in the range of $315 million to $320 million.  

Items Affecting Comparability of Earnings Between Periods:  In the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized pre-tax charges totaling $26 million ($26 million after income taxes) and $53 million ($53 million after income taxes), respectively, related to the premium paid for debt repurchases.  In the second quarter of 2018, we recorded a pre-tax charge of $58 million ($58 million after income taxes) resulting from the settlement of legal claims related to former downstream interests.  In addition, in the first quarter of 2018, as required under accounting standards’ intraperiod allocation rules, we recognized a noncash income tax benefit of $30 million to offset a noncash income tax expense recognized in other comprehensive income, resulting from a reduction in our pension liabilities.

Other Items Potentially Affecting Future Results

Our future results may be impacted by a variety of factors, including but not limited to, volatility in the selling prices of crude oil, NGLs and natural gas, reserve and production changes, asset sales, impairment charges and exploration expenses, industry cost inflation and/or deflation, changes in foreign exchange rates and income tax rates, changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances, the effects of weather, political risk, environmental risk and catastrophic risk.  For a more comprehensive description of the risks that may affect our business, see Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Operating activities:  Net cash provided by operating activities was $913 million in the first six months of 2019, compared with $635 million in the first six months of 2018.  The increase in 2019 operating cash flows primarily reflects higher net production volumes.  Changes in operating assets and liabilities was a use of cash of $282 million in the first six months of 2019, and a use of cash of $225 million in the first six months of 2018.  Changes in operating assets and liabilities during 2019 included a one-time payment of approximately $130 million to our joint venture partner for its share of sale/leaseback proceeds related to our sale of the North Malay Basin floating storage and offloading vessel completed in the third quarter of 2018.  The remaining changes primarily included an increase in accounts receivable and a reduction in accounts payable.

Investing activities:  Additions to property, plant and equipment were up $402 million in the first six months of 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, primarily reflecting increased drilling activity in the Bakken, increased activity at the Liza Phase 1 development and the Midstream operating segment’s acquisition of assets from Summit Midstream Partners LP, partially offset by lower exploration expenditures in Canada.  The Midstream segment invested $23 million in its 50/50 joint venture with Targa Resources in the first six months of 2019, compared with $41 million in the first six months of 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

Financing activities: HIP borrowed a net total of $160 million from its revolving credit facility in the first six months of 2019.  Debt repayments were $5 million in the first six months of 2019 and $591 million in the first six months of 2018, that included the redemption of our 8.125% notes due in 2019.  Payments on finance lease obligations were $45 million in the first six months of 2019.  In addition, we paid common and preferred stock dividends totaling $164 million in the first six months of 2019, compared with $176 million in the first six months of 2018.  In the first six months of 2018, we cash settled the repurchase of $890 million of common stock.

Future Capital Requirements and Resources

Excluding our Midstream segment, we ended the second quarter of 2019 with approximately $2.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents, total liquidity including available committed credit facilities of approximately $6.1 billion and no significant near-term debt maturities.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $913 million in the first six months of 2019, compared with $635 million in the first six months of 2018.  Net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities was $1,195 million in the first six months of 2019 and $860 million in the first six months of 2018.  Capital expenditures were $1,336 million in the first six months of 2019 and $961 million in the first six months of 2018.  Based on current forward strip crude oil prices for 2019, we expect cash flow from operating activities and cash and cash equivalents existing at June 30, 2019, will be sufficient to fund our capital investment program and dividends through the end of 2019.

At June 30, 2019, Hess Corporation had no outstanding borrowings or letters of credit under its revolving credit facility and was in compliance with its financial covenants.

In the second quarter of 2019, the Corporation entered into a new fully undrawn $3.5 billion revolving credit facility with a maturity date of May 15, 2023, that replaced the Corporation’s previous revolving credit facility maturing in January 2021.  The new facility can be used for borrowings and letters of credit.  Borrowings on the new facility will generally bear interest at 1.30% above the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), though the interest rate is subject to adjustment if the Corporation’s credit rating changes.  The facility is subject to customary representations, warranties and covenants, including a financial covenant limiting the ratio of Total Consolidated Debt to Total Capitalization (as such terms are defined in the credit agreement for the facility) of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries to 0.650 to 1.000, and customary events of default.

We also have a shelf registration under which we may issue additional debt securities, warrants, common stock or preferred stock.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONT’D.)

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

At June 30, 2019, HIP had $800 million of senior secured syndicated credit facilities maturing November 2022, consisting of a $600 million 5-year revolving credit facility and a drawn $200 million 5-year Term Loan A facility.  The revolving credit facility can be used for borrowings and letters of credit to fund the joint venture’s operating activities and capital expenditures.  Borrowings under the 5-year Term Loan A facility will generally bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.55% to 2.50%, while the applicable margin for the 5-year syndicated revolving credit facility ranges from 1.275% to 2.000%.  The interest rate is subject to adjustment based on HIP’s leverage ratio, which is calculated as total debt to Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA).  If HIP obtains an investment grade credit rating, as defined in the amended credit agreement, pricing levels will be based on the credit ratings in effect from time to time.  The credit facilities contain financial covenants that generally require a leverage ratio of no more than 5.0 to 1.0 for the prior four fiscal quarters and an interest coverage ratio, which is calculated as EBITDA to cash interest expense, of no less than 2.25 to 1.0 for the prior four fiscal quarters.  The amended credit agreement includes a secured leverage ratio test not to exceed 3.75 to 1.00 for so long as the facilities remain secured.  HIP is in compliance with these financial covenants at June 30, 2019.  Outstanding borrowings under this credit facility are non-recourse to Hess Corporation.  At June 30, 2019, borrowings of $160 million were drawn under HIP’s revolving credit facility, and borrowings of $192.5 million, excluding deferred issuance costs, were drawn under HIP’s Term Loan A facility.  The credit facilities are secured by first-priority perfected liens on substantially all of HIP’s and certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries’ directly owned assets, including its equity interests in certain subsidiaries, subject to customary exclusions.

HESM has a $300 million 4-year senior secured syndicated revolving credit facility that became available for utilization at completion of its initial public offering in April 2017.  The credit facility can be used for borrowings and letters of credit to fund operating activities and capital expenditures of HESM and expires March 2021.  Borrowings on the credit facility will generally bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.275%.  The interest rate is subject to adjustment based on HESM’s leverage ratio, which is calculated as total debt to EBITDA.  If HESM obtains credit ratings, pricing levels will be based on the credit ratings in effect from time to time.  HESM is subject to customary covenants in the credit agreement, including financial covenants that generally require a leverage ratio of no more than 4.5 to 1.0 for the prior four fiscal quarters.  HESM is in compliance with these financial covenants at June 30, 2019.  The credit facility is secured by first priority perfected liens on substantially all directly owned assets of HESM and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including equity interests in subsidiaries, subject to certain customary exclusions.  Outstanding borrowings under this credit facility are non-recourse to Hess Corporation.  At June 30, 2019, no borrowings were drawn under this facility.

Market Risk Disclosures

We are exposed in the normal course of business to commodity risks related to changes in the prices of crude oil and natural gas, as well as changes in interest rates and foreign currency values.  See Note 13, Financial Risk Management Activities, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financial Risk Management Activities

We have outstanding foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts totaling $44 million at June 30, 2019 that are used to reduce our exposure to fluctuating foreign exchange rates for various currencies.  The change in fair value of foreign exchange contracts from a 10% weakening in the U.S. Dollar exchange rate is estimated to be a loss of approximately $5 million at June 30, 2019.

At June 30, 2019, our total long-term debt, which was substantially comprised of fixed-rate instruments, had a carrying value of $6,525 million and a fair value of $7,264 million.  A 15% increase or decrease in interest rates would decrease or increase the fair value of debt by approximately $450 million or $500 million, respectively.  Any changes in interest rates do not impact our cash outflows associated with fixed-rate interest payments or settlement of debt principal, unless a debt instrument is repurchased prior to maturity.

At June 30, 2019, we have outstanding West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil put contracts.  See Note 13, Financial Risk Management Activities in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. As of June 30, 2019, an assumed 10% increase in the forward WTI crude oil prices used in determining the fair value of our crude put contracts would reduce the fair value of these derivatives instruments by approximately $35 million, while an assumed 10% decrease in the same WTI crude oil prices would increase the fair value of these derivative instruments by approximately $70 million.
