LETTER TO STOCKHOLDERS The Proof is in the Numbers EOG’s numbers added up to stellar performance for 2012. By efficiently executing our consistent long-term, high rate-of-return production growth strategy, EOG achieved: • Total organic crude oil and condensate production growth of 39 percent; • Discretionary cash flow growth of 26 percent;(1) • Non-GAAP earnings per share growth of 50 percent;(1) and • Adjusted EBITDAX growth of 26 percent;(1) while maintaining • A net debt-to-total capitalization ratio below 30 percent.(1) These metrics, based on year-over- year comparisons, position EOG at the forefront of the large-cap, independent E&P peer group. Ours is a well-thought-out methodology applied through steady, year- in year-out spadework. Back in 2007, EOG redirected its focus toward crude oil when we foresaw that market fundamentals would likely cause weak North American natural gas prices for an extended period. In fact, EOG was the trailblazer in what has become the entire Gary L. Thomas Mark G. Papa William R. Thomas industry’s shift away from natural gas. Chief Operating Officer Chairman of the Board President and Chief Executive EOG’s tenacity in believing that horizontal Officer crude oil shale plays would prove highly economic has ultimately changed supply trends in the United States for decades to come. Subsequently, EOG secured a first-mover advantage by capturing the richest acreage in several of the largest onshore crude oil discoveries in the United States during the past 40 years. In our crown jewel, the South Texas Eagle Ford, EOG increased the estimated potential net crude oil equivalent reserves(2) by 38 percent, from 1.6 to 2.2 billion barrels equivalent (BnBoe), primarily from accessing new reserves through well downspacing and enhanced completion techniques. Employing the same basic formula to our second largest gem, we also added economic, previously bypassed crude oil production in the North Dakota Bakken/Three Forks. 1 LETTER TO STOCKHOLDERS Based on success from applying more effective completion methodologies to the southeastern New Mexico Delaware Basin Leonard Shale play, we increased the net estimated reserve potential(2) of EOG’s 73,000 net acres from 65 million barrels of crude oil equivalent (MMBoe) to 550 MMBoe. Also in 2012, EOG identified a promising new Texas/New Mexico horizontal play in the Delaware Basin Wolfcamp with estimated net potential reserves(2) of 800 MMBoe. From multiple pay zone targets in our 114,000 net acre Delaware Basin footprint, the total estimated reserve potential(2) is approximately 1.35 BnBoe, net to EOG. Last year, EOG-owned-and-operated mines helped us optimize sand costs in our major plays. When U.S. crude oil pricing differentials between major sales points widened last year, our crude-by-rail transportation system enabled us to sell a large part of EOG’s crude oil at premium market prices. In 2012, our shareholders benefited from EOG’s success in capturing the best acreage positions in the best crude oil plays, using technology to maximize recovery of the hydrocarbons in place and generating additional value from the assets already in hand.

The current indicated annual rate of $0.75 reflects the 14th 55.2 78.8 increase in 14 years. Another of EOG’s strengths is our workforce.

For the seventh consecutive year, EOG was named to FORTUNE’s 2013 10 11 12 13* * Indicated annual rate list of “100 Best Companies to Work For®.” This comprehensive review includes 3 LETTER TO STOCKHOLDERS an evaluation of a company’s policies and culture, as well as a survey of employees regarding credibility, respect, fairness, pride and camaraderie. We have made the FORTUNE list every year that EOG has been eligible to apply. Totaling the Results Last year, the robust expansion of domestic shale oil provided a bright spot in the midst of this country’s fiscal and economic malaise. At EOG, we believe that the oil and gas industry’s growth has the potential to pull the economy out of the doldrums, translating into a U.S. industrial renaissance. By 2020, domestic shale oil production coupled with Canadian imports could significantly reduce or eliminate this country’s dependence on imported crude oil from outside North America, creating job growth both directly and indirectly. We estimate that this once-in-a-lifetime event and newfound self-sufficiency could dramatically change this country’s balance-of-payments picture, as well as affect U.S.

This report presents the US exploration and production (E&P) results for the five-year period from 2014 through 2018 for the 50 largest companies based on 2018 end-of-year US oil and gas reserve estimates. The study companies cover approximately 42% of the US combined oil and gas production for 2018 (44% for 2017). Activities related to acquisitions have also been reflected as described in the appendix. Study companies Due to the significance of the oil and gas reserves attributable to the study companies, the results of these companies are generally representative of the US E&P industry as a whole. Total US production is fast approaching a leading global position, giving this study’s findings an impact beyond the US borders, but it should be noted that results for these companies and for the E&P industry as a whole may be significantly different in other regions of the world.
