Index
Quantities of natural gas are expressed in this report in terms of thousand cubic feet (Mcf) and million cubic feet (MMcf). Oil is quantified in terms of barrels (Bbls) and thousands of barrels (Mbbls). Natural gas is compared to oil in terms of barrels of oil equivalent (BOE), thousand barrels of oil equivalent (MBOE) or million barrels of oil equivalent (MMBOE). One barrel of oil is the energy equivalent of six Mcf of natural gas. With respect to information relating to our working interest in wells or acreage, “net” oil and natural gas wells or acreage is determined by multiplying gross wells or acreage by our working interest therein. References to number of potential well locations are gross, unless otherwise indicated.
References to “GAAP” refer to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Note 1 — General
Endeavour International Corporation (a Nevada corporation) is an independent oil and gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of energy reserves. As used in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the terms “Endeavour,” “we,” “us,” “our” and similar terms refer to Endeavour International Corporation and, unless the context indicates otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10—K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP and have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These accounting principles require management to use estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management reviews its estimates, including those related to the determination of proved reserves, estimates of future dismantlement costs, income taxes and litigation. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in these financial statements. Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
Management believes that it is reasonably possible that the following material estimates affecting the financial statements could change in the coming year:
    proved oil and gas reserves,
 
    expected future cash flow from proved oil and gas properties,
 
    future dismantlement and restoration costs,
 
    fair values used in purchase accounting; and
 
    fair value of derivative instruments.
Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income (loss) per share includes the effect of our outstanding stock options, warrants and shares issuable pursuant to convertible debt, convertible preferred stock and certain stock incentive plans under the treasury stock method, if including such instruments would be dilutive.

(Amounts in tables in thousands, except per unit data)
For each of the periods presented, shares associated with stock options, warrants, convertible debt, convertible preferred stock and certain stock incentive plans were not included because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
The common shares potentially issuable arising from these instruments, which were outstanding during the periods presented in the financial statements consisted of:
                 
    June 30,  
    2011     2010  
 
Warrants, options and stock-based compensation
    141       104  
Convertible debt
    3,576       5,505  
Convertible preferred stock
    4,686       5,143  
 
 
    8,403       10,752  
 
New Accounting Developments
On January 1, 2010, we adopted the following new standards without material effects on our results of operations or financial position:
    Subsequent Events — Amended standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued; and
 
    Fair Value — New, expanded disclosures are required for recurring or nonrecurring fair-value measurements and the reconciliation of specific fair value measurements.
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new accounting standard on fair value measurements that clarifies the application of existing guidance and disclosure requirements, changes certain fair value measurement principles and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is not permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this accounting guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance impacting the presentation of comprehensive income. The guidance eliminates the current option to report components of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity or in a footnote to the financial statements. The guidance is intended to provide a more consistent method of presenting non-owner transactions that affect an entity’s equity. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. We do not expect adoption of the comprehensive income presentation to have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Note 2 — Property and Equipment
Property and equipment included the following at the dates indicated below:
                 
    June 30,     December 31,  
    2011     2010  
 
Oil and gas properties under the full cost method:

Accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization
    (201,164 )     (190,550 )
 
 
               
Net property and equipment
  $ 499,493     $ 364,677  
 
The costs not subject to amortization relate to unproved properties and properties being made ready to be placed into service, which are excluded from amortizable capital costs until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to such properties. We capitalized $4.1 million and $1.2 million in interest related to exploration activities for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. For the six months ending June 30, 2011 and 2010, we capitalized $5.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, in interest related to exploration.
For the second quarter of 2011, we did not have an impairment of oil and gas properties, pre-tax, through the application of the full cost ceiling test at the end of the quarter. The prices used in the application of the full cost ceiling test were $90.27 per barrel for oil and $4.24 per Mcf for gas for our U.S. properties, and $95.90 per barrel for oil and $8.26 per Mcf for gas for our U.K. properties.
Assets Acquisition
On February 23, 2011, we closed our acquisition of an additional 20% working interest in the Bacchus field for approximately $9.2 million in cash payable at closing and approximately $6.2 million in cash payable at the earlier of three months after first oil is produced or the end of 2011. In addition, we paid capital costs incurred by the seller of $9.4 million. Following the acquisition, we hold an aggregate 30% working interest.

Pending Acquisition
In July 2011, we entered into purchase and sale agreements to acquire certain leasehold and producing interests in the Marcellus shale in north central Pennsylvania, as well as a pipeline and related facilities for aggregate consideration of $110 million. The transaction is expected to close by the fourth quarter of 2011. Additional discussion of this acquisition can be found in Note 11 “Subsequent Events.”
Note 3 — Debt Obligations
Our debt consisted of the following at the dates indicated:
                 
    June 30,     December 31,  
    2011     2010  
 
Senior notes, 6% fixed rate, due 2012
  $     $ 81,250  
Convertible bonds, 11.5%, due 2016
    59,077       55,821  
Subordinated notes, 12.0%, due 2014
    41,620       51,132  
Senior term loan, 15%, due 2013
    163,011       161,371  
 
 
    263,708       349,574  
Less: debt discount
    (2,670 )     (4,268 )
Less: current maturities
    (16,600 )     (21,600 )
 
 
               
Long-term debt
  $ 244,438     $ 323,706  
 
 
               
Standby letters of credit outstanding for abandonment liabilities
  $ 33,166     $ 31,726  
 
Our outstanding credit facilities contain certain financial ratio covenants. We were in compliance with all financial and restrictive covenants of our debt obligations as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
The fair value of our outstanding debt obligations was $270 million and $361 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The fair values of long-term debt were determined based upon external market quotes for our Senior Notes and discounted cash flows for other debt.
6% Senior Notes
On April 20, 2011, we redeemed all $81.25 million of our outstanding 6% Senior Notes due 2012 with a portion of the proceeds from our common stock offering completed in March 2011.

(Amounts in tables in thousands, except per unit data)
The redemption was made at a price of 100% of the Senior Notes’ principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.
11.5% Convertible Bonds
On March 11, 2011, we entered into an amendment to the Trust Deed with Smedvig QIF PLC related to our 11.5% Convertible Bonds due 2014. The amendment provides for:
    the amendment of the maturity date of the 11.5% Convertible Bonds from January 24, 2014 to January 24, 2016;
 
    the amendment of the date upon which the holders of the 11.5% Convertible Bonds may first exercise a put right, and the occurrence of the conversion price reset if such put right is not exercised, from January 24, 2012 to January 24, 2016; and
 
    a reduction in the interest rate payable from 11.5% to 7.5% on and after March 31, 2014.
We recorded a loss of $0.8 million in other expenses related to this amendment, representing the difference between the fair value of the debt and the book value of the debt at March 11, 2011.
Senior Term Loan
On February 6, 2011, we amended our Senior Term Loan due 2013 to increase the security reserved for potential letters of credit from $25 million to $35 million. In July 2011, we secured new letters of credit that allowed us to release the $33 million of restricted cash that served as collateral for previous letters of credit.
The Amendment of our 11.5% Convertible Bonds and the redemption of all $81.25 million of our outstanding 6% Senior Notes satisfied the two conditions precedent to extend the maturity date of the Senior Term Loan to August 16, 2013
In July 2011, we amended our Senior Term Loan to provide for an increase of $75 million in the borrowings available under the Senior Term Loan. In connection with the increase, we drew down the full additional amounts available and our quarterly scheduled amortization payments on the Senior Term Loan will increase from $400,000 to $587,500. See Note 11 “Subsequent Events” for additional discussion of these transactions.
5.5% Convertible Senior Notes
In July 2011, we issued $135 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2016. Interest on these notes will be payable semiannually at a rate of 5.5% per annum. The 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes are convertible into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion rate of 54.019 shares (equivalent to $18.51 per share) of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the notes. See Note 11 “Subsequent Events” for additional discussion of this transaction.

Note 7 — Fair Value Measurements
We apply fair value measurements to certain assets and liabilities including derivative instruments, marketable securities and embedded derivatives relating to conversion and change in control features in certain of our debt instruments. We seek to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:
Level 1:     Fair value is based on actively-quoted market prices, if available.
 
Level 2:     In the absence of actively-quoted market prices, we seek price information from external sources, including broker quotes and industry publications. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace during the entire term of the instrument, derived from observable data, or supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.
 
Level 3:     If valuations require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and less observable from objective sources, we must estimate prices based on available historical and near-term future price information and certain statistical methods that reflect our market assumptions.

Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table summarizes the valuation of our investments and financial instruments by pricing levels as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Our commodity derivative contracts were measured based on quotes from our counterparties, all of whom are major financial institutions or commodities trading institutions. Such quotes have been derived using models that consider various inputs including current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, quoted forward prices for natural gas and crude oil, volatility factors and interest rates, such as a LIBOR curve for a similar length of time as the derivative contract term. The inputs for the fair value models for our swaps are all observable market data, and as a result these instruments have been classified as Level 2.
The following is a reconciliation of changes in fair value of net derivative assets and liabilities classified as Level 3:

Note 8 — Derivative Instruments
From time to time, we may utilize derivative financial instruments to hedge cash flows from operations or to hedge the fair value of financial instruments. We may use derivative financial instruments with respect to a portion of our oil and gas production or a portion of our variable rate debt to achieve a more predictable cash flow by reducing our exposure to price fluctuations. These transactions are likely to be swaps, collars or options and to be entered into with major financial institutions or commodities trading institutions. Derivative financial instruments are intended to reduce our exposure to declines in the market prices of crude oil and natural gas that we produce and sell, or to increases in interest rates and to manage cash flows in support of our annual capital expenditure budget. We also have embedded derivatives related to our debt instruments and convertible preferred stock.
The fair market value of these derivative instruments is included in our balance sheet as follows for the periods indicated:

Note 10 — Commitments and Contingencies
We have previously disclosed a potential commitment on a drilling rig in our North Sea operations relating to a dispute with the rig operator. On June 6, 2011, we entered into a settlement agreement with the rig operator whereby the parties were mutually released from all future claims. We incurred costs of $14 million related to the settlement, which were included in capital expenditures.
Note 11 — Subsequent Events
In July 2011, we amended our Senior Term Loan to provide for an increase of $75 million in the borrowings available under the Senior Term Loan. In connection with the increase, we drew down the full additional amounts available and our quarterly scheduled amortization payments on the Senior Term Loan will increase from $400,000 to $587,500. The other primary provisions of the amendment include:
    consent and approval by the lenders of the issuance of the 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes and certain conforming amendments with respect to the issuance of those notes, including an increase in the basket available for the issuance of junior debt from $100 million to $135 million;
 
    an amendment to the negative pledge provision to allow us to provide up to $10 million of cash margin to secure hedging obligations and;
 
    an extension by one additional quarters to the scheduled step up in the minimum secured debt coverage ratio.
In July 2011, we entered into purchase and sale agreements with SM Energy Company and certain other minority owners to acquire the leasehold and producing interests held by SM Energy and its partners in the Marcellus shale in north central Pennsylvania, as well as a pipeline and related facilities in McKean and Potter Counties, Pennsylvania, for aggregate consideration of $110 million. The transaction is expected to close by the fourth quarter of 2011 and will be

(Amounts in tables in thousands, except per unit data)
financed utilizing the proceeds from the issuance of the 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes, as discussed below.
In July 2011, we issued $135 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes. Interest is payable semi-annually. The 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes are convertible into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion rate of 54.019 shares (equivalent to $18.51 per share) of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the notes. We intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds of this offering to fund our pending acquisition of acreage and related midstream assets in the Marcellus shale play. Any remainder, or the full net proceeds if we are unable to complete the Marcellus acquisition, will be used for general corporate purposes.
In July 2011, a tax increase was enacted by the U.K. government that will raise the existing supplementary charge on profits from North Sea oil and gas production from 20% to 32%, effective March 24, 2011. This supplementary charge is in addition to the existing corporation tax rate of 30%. As we do not currently anticipate paying corporate or supplementary tax in the U.K. for the next several years, we expect the tax increase to have little effect on our cash flow from operations during that time period. We have estimated that as a result of this enacted tax increase we will record a one-time increase in deferred tax liabilities of approximately $25 million during the third quarter of 2011, with a corresponding increase in deferred tax expense.
In July 2011, we entered into a letter of credit facility agreement (the “LC Agreement”) with Commonwealth Bank of Australia (“CBA”), pursuant to which CBA issued letters of credit to us in the amount of £20.6 million (approximately $35 million as of July 25, 2011). Concurrent with the issuance of the letters of credit, the restrictions on £20.6 million of our restricted cash were removed and the cash returned for general corporate purposes. The letters of credit secure decommissioning obligations in connection with certain of our United Kingdom Continental Shelf Petroleum Production Licences. The LC Agreement provides that we must pay a quarterly fee computed at a rate of 4.5% per year on the outstanding amount of each letter of credit issued under the LC Agreement. The LC Agreement contains similar financial covenants and other covenants as the credit agreement governing our Senior Term Loan. The CBA letters of credit have initial expiration dates of not later than October 31, 2012, and are renewable at our option through the expiration of the LC Agreement on October 31, 2013.

Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. The following discussion also includes non-GAAP financial measures, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, we strongly encourage investors to review our financial statements in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.
Overview
We are an independent oil and gas company engaged in the production, exploration, development and acquisition of crude oil and natural gas in the U.S. and the North Sea. Our strategy is to expand and exploit our balanced portfolio of exploration and development assets using conventional and unconventional technologies in basins that have historically generated and produced substantial quantities of oil and gas and that we believe will yield commercial quantities of reserves through improved drilling and completion technologies. Finding, developing and producing oil and gas reserves in the North Sea require both significant capital and time. Recognizing this, we have sought to balance our North Sea assets, which have large potential reserves but long production-cycles, with a portfolio of assets in the U.S. that have lower costs and shorter production-cycles. We also seek to achieve a balance of oil and gas reserves in our portfolio of assets, believing that both commodities present attractive opportunities for capital returns in the future.
Our North Sea activities and assets remain a key source of value that we are actively developing to increase our overall reserves and production. Our major development projects in the U.K. sector of the North Sea — Bacchus, Greater Rochelle, and Columbus — have the potential to significantly expand our total proved reserves and production levels. These projects are in various stages of development, with Bacchus currently expected to commence oil production in the fourth quarter of 2011. Additionally, we expect that production from our two-phase development of the Greater Rochelle area will commence with first production from East Rochelle in the second half of 2012 and from West Rochelle shortly thereafter. Finally, our Columbus development project could commence production as early as 2013. We intend to continue actively managing our North Sea assets in a manner that maximizes value and enables us to allocate resources to effectively pursue our growth strategy.
Currently, our primary focus in the U.S. is unconventional gas developments targeting reserve and production growth in the Haynesville area, including the Louisiana Haynesville Shale and East Texas Cotton Valley Sands, and the Marcellus Shale play in Pennsylvania. In the Haynesville area, we have approximately 7,500 net acres with acreage located in Red River, DeSoto, Bienville and Caddo Parishes in Louisiana and in Harrison and Gregg Counties in Texas. Our Marcellus acreage is comprised of approximately 18,600 net acres in Pennsylvania located between two of the most active parts of the Marcellus play. We also have exploratory plans in emerging gas and oil plays in Alabama and Montana where early well results will determine the pace and scope of our subsequent exploration and development initiatives.

Endeavour International Corporation
We are expanding upon our foundation of producing assets and undeveloped acreage in both established and emerging U.S. onshore resource plays, including the development of our leasehold positions in the Haynesville and Marcellus areas, while continuing to develop our existing assets in the North Sea. Specifically, we have continued to focus on achieving initial production from the Bacchus oil field in the North Sea. We believe that the following will support us in executing our core business strategies.
    In July 2011, we secured new letters of credit that allowed us to release the $33 million of restricted cash into operations that served as collateral for previous letters of credit.
 
    In July 2011, we entered into purchase and sale agreements with SM Energy Company and certain other minority owners to acquire the leasehold and producing interests held by SM Energy and its partners in the Marcellus shale in north central Pennsylvania, as well as a pipeline and related facilities, for aggregate consideration of $110 million.
 
    In July 2011, we issued $135 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes and intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds of this offering to fund our pending acquisition of acreage and related midstream assets in the Marcellus shale play.
 
    In July 2011, we entered into an amendment to our Senior Term Loan providing for an increase of $75 million in the amounts available under the Senior Term Loan. The proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.
 
    In April 2011, we redeemed all $81.25 million of our outstanding 6% Senior Notes with a portion of the proceeds from our common stock offering completed in March 2011.
 
    In March 2011, we closed a public offering of 11.5 million shares of our common stock offering for net proceeds of $118.4 million.
 
    In March 2011, we completed the transfer of the primary listing for our common stock from the NYSE Amex to the New York Stock Exchange.
 
    In March 2011, we entered into an Amendment to the Trust Deed dated as of January 24, 2008 with Smedvig QIF PLC and the other parties thereto related to our 11.5% Convertible Bonds. The amendment provides for an extension of the maturity date of the 11.5% Convertible Bonds; extends the date on which holders may exercise a put right, and the occurrence of price reset if not exercised; and a reduction in the interest rate payable after March 31, 2014 to 7.5%.
 
    In February 2011, the Department of Energy and Climate Change (the “DECC”) approved the Rochelle FDP for Block 15/27 in East Rochelle. In April 2011, we announced the agreement of the commercial terms for the processing and transportation of East Rochelle production on the Scott Platform in the Central North Sea. As the operator, we plan to award contracts and commence immediate construction of the production facilities. First production from East Rochelle is planned for the second half of 2012.
 
    In February 2011, we finalized our acquisition of an additional 20% working interest in the Bacchus development for approximately $9.2 million in cash payable at closing and approximately $6.2 million in cash payable at the earlier of three months after first production or the last business day of 2011. In addition, we paid capital costs previously incurred by the seller of $9.4 million. Following the acquisition, we now hold an aggregate working interest of 30%.

    In February 2011, we amended our Senior Term Loan to increase the security reserved for potential letters of credit from $25 million to $35 million. In July 2011, we secured new letters of credit that allowed us to release the $33 million of restricted cash that served as collateral for previous letters of credit.
Results of Operations
Revenue, net income and cash flows from operating activities are very sensitive to changes in prices received for our products. With our business policy to utilize various oil and gas derivative instruments to achieve more predictable cash flows by reducing our exposure to price fluctuations, our realized commodity prices including the effect of derivatives, particularly for oil, were less volatile than commodity prices before the effect of derivatives.
Net loss to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $24.1 million, or $0.74 per share, compared to $15.7 million, or $0.71 per share, for the same period in 2010. The change in the net loss to common shareholders for these periods is primarily due to decreases in unrealized gains on derivative instruments and revenue and increased operating and interest expenses, partially offset by the absence of an impairment of oil and gas properties and decreased tax expense.
Net income (loss) to common shareholders for the second quarter June 30, 2011 decreased to ($16.1) million compared to $0.1 million for the same period in 2010 primarily due to decreases in unrealized gains on derivative instruments and revenue and increased operating and interest expenses, partially offset by decreased tax expense.
In addition to our operations, our net income can be significantly affected by various non-cash items, such as unrealized gains and losses on our derivatives, impairment of oil and gas properties, and currency impact of long-term liabilities. Net loss as adjusted for the six months ended June 30, 2011 would have been $22.3 million without the effect of derivative transactions and impairment of oil and gas properties as compared to net loss as adjusted of $9.7 million for the same period in 2010. Net loss as adjusted for the second quarter June 30, 2011 would have been $9.3 million without the effect of derivative transactions as compared to net loss as adjusted of $3.3 million for the same period in 2010.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $11.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $22.8 million for the same period in 2010, primarily due to decreased revenue related to the loss of production after the shut-in of our Goldeneye field and increased operating and other expenses. Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $7.6 million for the second quarter June 30, 2011 from $13.1 million for the same period in 2010 due to similar reasons as the six month decline. For definitions of Net Income (Loss) as Adjusted and Adjusted EBITDA, and a reconciliation of each to the nearest comparable GAAP measure, please see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures.”
Our cash flows used by operating activities decreased to $(23.9) million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $24.5 million for the

20

Endeavour International Corporation
same period in 2010, primarily due to a loss of revenue from decreased production, increased interest expense related to our 2010 debt issuances and increased operating expenses.
Revenue and Sales Volume
Our revenues decreased from $35.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $33.2 million in the same period of 2011 primarily as a result of the shutdown of our U.K. Goldeneye field and lower averaged realized natural gas prices, partially offset by increased U.S. gas sales volumes and higher oil prices. The change in our average realized natural gas prices is the result of a combination of factors. Our expanded operations in the U.S. along with the shutdown of Goldeneye have led to U.S. sales becoming the majority of our total gas sales. The U.S. gas market is heavily impacted by the increased supply from shale drilling. The significant increase of supply of natural gas from shale drilling on the U.S. gas markets and the significant shift in our gas sales from the U.K. to the U.S. resulted in the decrease in our average realized gas prices.
The following table shows our average sales volumes and realized sales prices for our operations for the periods presented. None of our current producing fields represent more than 15 percent of our total proved reserves during 2011 or 2010.

We have taken important steps to balance our asset portfolio in several dimensions: U.S. versus U.K. properties; oil versus natural gas; and short-term versus long-term realizations. We have constructed our asset portfolio in this manner in an attempt to mitigate the risks of over-emphasizing any one of these variables. Specifically, we believe that the resource-rich plays in the U.S., with less capital-intensive and shorter production-cycles relative to our North Sea development projects, will provide a stable platform for the successful execution of our strategy by helping to provide cash flows from operations as we develop our longer-term, more capital-intensive North Sea development projects
Our revenues and cash flows from operating activities are very sensitive to changes in the prices we receive for the oil and natural gas we produce. Our production is sold at prevailing market prices which may be volatile and subject to numerous factors which are outside of our control. Further, the current tightly-balanced supply and demand market allows a small variation in supply or demand to significantly impact the market prices for these commodities.
The markets in which we sell our oil and natural gas also materially impact our revenues and cash flows. Oil trades on a worldwide market and consequently, price movements for all types and grades of crude oil generally trend in the same direction and within a relatively narrow price range. However, natural gas prices vary among geographic areas as the prices received are largely impacted by local supply and demand conditions as the global transportation infrastructure for natural gas is still developing. As such, the oil we produce and sell is typically sold at prices in line with global prices, whereas our natural gas is to a large extent impacted by regional supply and demand issues and to a lesser extent by global fuel prices, including oil and coal. With the recent increase in our U.S. operations and the shut-in of the Goldeneye field, the majority of our gas sales are in the U.S. The U.S. gas market is heavily impacted by the increased supply from shale drilling, which has served to depress natural gas prices relative to the U.K. market.
For the second quarter of 2011 and 2010, we had sales volume of 3,295 BOE per day and 4,684 BOE per day, respectively. Our physical daily production was approximately 3,204 BOE and 4,103 BOE for the second quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively. The decrease in sales volume is primarily attributable to the shut down of our Goldeneye field, partially offset by an increase in sales volumes from our U.S. assets. Sales from our U.S. assets have increased as we have continued our drilling program since our initial acquisitions of these assets in late 2009.
In 2010, the Goldeneye field represented nearly all of our gas production in the U.K. The field was shut-in in early December 2010 due to flow assurance issues resulting from increased water production. During the first quarter of 2011, the field operator performed flow trials to study pipeline hydraulic performance which showed that production from the Goldeneye field was no longer economically sustainable. The operator is currently evaluating options to use the Goldeneye reservoir for carbon dioxide storage, which may reduce our abandonment obligations for the field.

Expenses
For the second quarter of 2011, operating expenses increased to $6.4 million as compared to $3.5 million for the same period in 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, operating expenses increased to $11.4 million as compared to $6.3 million for the same period in 2010. The increase in operating expense from 2010 to 2011 is primarily related to increased workover expense and increases in transportation expense and production taxes as a result of increased U.S. sales volumes. Operating costs per BOE increased from $8.13 per BOE for the second quarter of 2010 to $21.18 per BOE for the same period in 2011. Operating costs per BOE increased from $8.79 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2010, to $19.99 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The significant increases in operating costs per BOE are due to the impact of both the increases in the dollar levels of operating expenses and the decreased volumes discussed above.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A”) expense decreased to $7.0 million from $7.9 million for the second quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively, as a result of the decreased sales volumes discussed previously. DD&A also decreased to $13.3 million from $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, also as a result of the decreased sales volumes discussed previously.
For the second quarter of 2011, the prices used in the full cost ceiling test for our U.S. properties were $90.27 per barrel for oil and $4.24 per Mcf for gas. For the second quarter of 2011, the prices used in the full cost ceiling test for our U.K. properties were $95.90 per barrel for oil and $8.26 per Mcf for gas. We have not recorded any impairment during 2011. The risk that we will be required to record impairments of our oil and gas properties, through the application of the full cost ceiling test in subsequent periods, increases when oil and gas prices are low or volatile.
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased slightly to $4.9 million during the second quarter of 2011 as compared to $4.2 million for the corresponding period in 2010. G&A expenses increased to $9.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $8.6 million for the corresponding period in 2010. These increases primarily resulted from higher compensation expense and other costs. Components of G&A expenses for these periods are as follows:

These increases were primarily due to increased interest costs related to the Senior Term Loan, partially offset by the corresponding absence of interest in 2011 from our previously existing senior and junior debt which were repaid concurrently with the issuance of the Senior Term Loan. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we had non-cash interest expense, including amortization of loan costs and discount, of $12.5 million and $6.7 million, respectively.

The change in income tax expense (benefit) from $9.9 million to $(0.7) million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2011, respectively, is primarily the result of decreased income relating to our U.K. operations. Our U.K. income decreased primarily due to lower sales volumes which generated lower revenues, partially offset by increased realized commodity prices.
In 2011 and 2010, we did not record any income tax benefits in the U.S. as there was no assurance that we could generate any U.S. taxable earnings, resulting in a full valuation allowance of deferred tax assets generated.
2011 U.K. Tax Increase
In July 2011, a tax increase was enacted by the U.K. government that will raise the existing supplementary charge on profits from North Sea oil and gas production from 20% to 32%, effective March 24, 2011. This supplementary charge is in addition to the existing corporation tax rate of 30%. As we do not currently anticipate paying corporate or supplementary tax in the U.K. for the next several years, we expect the tax increase to have little effect on our cash flow from operations during that time period. We have estimated that as a result of this enacted tax increase we will record a one time increase in deferred tax liabilities of approximately $25 million during the third quarter of 2011, with a corresponding increase in deferred tax expense.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
Net income can be significantly affected by various non-cash items, such as unrealized gains and losses on our commodity derivatives, currency impact of long-term liabilities and deferred taxes. Given the significant impact that non-cash items may have on our net income, we use various measures in addition to net income and net cash provided by operating activities, including non-financial performance indicators and non-GAAP measures as key metrics to manage our

business and measure our results of operations. These metrics demonstrate our ability to maintain or grow production levels and reserves, internally fund capital expenditures and service debt as well as provide comparisons to other oil and gas exploration and production companies. Net Income (Loss) as Adjusted and Adjusted EBITDA are internal, supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We view these non-GAAP measures, and we believe that others in the oil and gas industry, securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties view these, or similar, non-GAAP measures, as commonly used analytic indicators to compare performance among companies in our industry and in the evaluation of issuers.
Because Net Income (Loss) as Adjusted and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements determined in accordance with GAAP and thus are susceptible to varying calculations, our non-GAAP measures as presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Net Income (Loss) as Adjusted and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these measures in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as reported under GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The following table summarizes our net cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the periods indicated. For additional details regarding the components of our primary cash flow amounts, see the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows under Item 1 of this report.
                 
    Six Months Ended June 30,  
    2011     2010  
 
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities
  $ (23,867 )   $ 24,453  
 
Net cash used in investing activities
  $ (90,314 )   $ (71,561 )
 
Net cash provided by financing activities
  $ 25,143     $ 33,414  
 
The net cash flows provided by operating activities are primarily impacted by the earnings from our business activities. The cash flows used by operating activities decreased to $ (23.9) million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $24.5 million provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to increased interest expense related to our 2010 debt issuances, increased operating expenses and decreased revenue from lower sales volumes.
The cash provided by or used in investing activities represents expenditures for capital projects, including our acquisition of an additional 20% working interest in the Bacchus field in the North Sea. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, cash used in investing activities was $90.3 million as opposed to $71.6 in the corresponding period of the prior year.
The cash provided by financing activities consists of borrowings, payments of preferred dividends, payment of financing costs, and proceeds from the issuance of common stock. In March 2011, we closed a public offering of 11.5 million shares of our common stock for net proceeds of $118.4 million. In April 2011, we used a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to redeem all $81.25 million of our 6% Senior Notes.
In March 2011, we entered into an Amendment to the Trust Deed with Smedvig QIF PLC related to our 11.5% Convertible Bonds. The Amendment provides for:
    the amendment of the maturity date of the 11.5% Convertible Bonds from January 24, 2014 to January 24, 2016;
 
    the amendment of the date upon which the holders of the 11.5% Convertible Bonds may first exercise a put right, and the occurrence of the conversion price reset if such put right is not exercised, from January 24, 2012 to January 24, 2016; and
 
    a reduction in the interest rate payable from 11.5% to 7.5% on and after March 31, 2014.
The Amendment of our 11.5% Convertible Bonds and the redemption of all $81.25 million of our outstanding 6% Senior Notes satisfied the two conditions precedent to extend the maturity date of the Senior Term Loan to be August 16, 2013.

At January 1, 2011, restricted cash represented amounts held in escrow as collateral for lines of credit associated with abandonment liabilities related to our U.K. properties. In February 2011, we amended our Senior Term Loan to increase the security reserved for potential letters of credit from $25 million to $35 million. In July 2011, we secured new letters of credit that allowed us to release the $33 million of restricted cash into operations that served as collateral for previous letters of credit.
Capital Program
We anticipate spending approximately $150 million during 2011 to fund our oil and gas activities in the U.S. and U.K., with approximately 60% of those expenditures anticipated to be focused on our U.K. assets. These capital budget numbers do not include $14 million of costs incurred in the settlement of the rig contract dispute in June 2011, which is included in our U.K. capital expenditures. As of June 30, 2011, we had spent $66.7 million in capital expenditures. We also spent an additional $22.2 million on acquisitions, primarily related to our purchase of an additional 20% working interest in the Bacchus field. We expect to spend an additional $110 million for our recently announced Marcellus acquisition. See Note 11 “Subsequent Events.”
In the U.K., our activity during 2011 will be primarily concentrated on the Bacchus and Greater Rochelle development projects. At the Bacchus project, we plan to drill three production wells and install the infrastructure to allow first production to begin in the fourth quarter of 2011. At the Greater Rochelle project, our focus will be completing engineering and procuring long lead-time equipment to prepare Greater Rochelle for a 2012 first production date from the East Rochelle area. We also intend to begin actual construction of the subsea infrastructure and modifications to the Scott platform to prepare it for production from the Greater Rochelle area.
Additionally, we expect to continue to further our development program at our Columbus project, including ongoing engineering assessments for future production and commercial off-take solutions. In 2011, we also expect to drill an appraisal well in the Tudor Rose prospect, Block 14/30a, to evaluate an oil discovery that was drilled in 1983. We have a 20% working interest in the prospect.
Our primary focus during the remainder of 2011 in the U.S. will be completing the pending Marcellus acquisition and in the Haynesville, Cotton Valley and Marcellus areas as we believe this acreage contains near-term production potential. The ongoing U.S. program and expenditures will be tailored based on early drilling results and U.S. gas prices in 2011. During 2011, we expect to further evaluate our two existing frontier plays in Alabama and Montana through the drilling of additional test wells. Specifically, we plan to test a successful horizontal re-entry in Alabama and drill four vertical pilot wells in Montana by the end of 2011.
We intend to fund our capital expenditures through cash on hand and cash flow generated from operations and borrowings under our Senior Term Loan, which was recently amended to increase the borrowing under the facility by $75 million. See Note 11, “Subsequent Events” to our consolidated financial statements. The majority of our cash on hand has been generated through borrowings under our Senior Term Loan, proceeds from the sale of our Cygnus reserves and our

Endeavour International Corporation
recent debt and equity offerings. In addition, we intend to use substantially all of the net proceeds of our recently completed 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes to fund our pending Marcellus acquisition. The timing, completion and progress of our 2011 capital program is subject to a number of factors, including availability of capital, drilling results, drilling and production costs, availability of drilling services and equipment, partner approvals and technical work. Based on these and other factors, we may increase or decrease our planned capital program or prioritize certain projects over others.
United Kingdom Activity
Activity in the U.K. during 2011 continues to focus on three primary development projects — Bacchus, Columbus, and Greater Rochelle. In October 2010, we completed the sale of our Cygnus asset for cash consideration of $110 million and utilized the proceeds to accelerate our development projects.
On February 23, 2011, we closed our acquisition of an additional 20% working interest in the Bacchus development for approximately $9.2 million in cash payable at closing and approximately $6.2 million in cash payable at the earlier of three months after first oil is produced or the end of 2011. In addition, we paid capital costs incurred by the seller of $9.4 million. Following the acquisition, we hold an aggregate 30% working interest. The field development plan (“FDP”) to drill for the Bacchus field calls for a subsea development with three wells to be drilled and linked to production facilities at the nearby Forties field. The rig to drill each of the three planned development wells has been moved to the drilling location and commenced operations in July 2011. We are currently drilling our initial development well and expect to commence production early in the fourth quarter of 2011, and follow with two additional development wells thereafter.
The Greater Rochelle area is comprised of three blocks in the North Sea, including our interests in blocks 15/27 and 15/26c. We refer to these blocks as our East Rochelle field and our West Rochelle field, respectively. In July 2011, the unitization of the Greater Rochelle area was completed resulting in a single set of interest across the field for the interest owners. After the unitization, our working interest in the Greater Rochelle area is now 44%, as compared to a 55.6% working interest in East Rochelle, a 50% working interest in West Rochelle and no working interest in the third block of the Greater Rochelle area. In addition, we retain operatorship of the field. In February 2011, the DECC approved the Rochelle FDP for Block 15/27 in East Rochelle. In April 2011, we announced agreement of the commercial terms for the processing and transportation of East Rochelle production on the Scott Platform in the Central North Sea. We plan to award contracts and commence immediate construction of the production facilities. First production from East Rochelle is planned for the second half of 2012.
Columbus is a gas/condensate field in the Central Graben region of the North Sea in which we hold a 25% working interest. During 2010, we, along with our partners in Columbus, agreed to study an option of producing the field using a new bridge-linked platform connected to the Lomand Platform. We filed an updated FDP in June 2011 with project sanction by the DECC anticipated later in the year. We believe that first production from this field could occur as early as 2013.

United States Drilling
We believe that our U.S. acreage provides us with development projects with shorter timeframes to first production at lower costs than our North Sea assets. In addition, our U.S. acreage covers a broad spectrum of resource plays, from established areas, such as Haynesville, Cotton Valley and Marcellus, to emerging plays in Alabama and Montana.
Our strategy for our U.S. operations has been to employ a measured approach that seeks to balance U.S. natural gas prices with drilling costs. We believe this approach in the U.S. should provide flexibility to adjust our drilling activity in accordance with current and future commodity prices and our operating results, while still allowing our U.S. production to grow and provide near-term return on capital to balance our longer production-cycle U.K. projects.
We currently have positions in four U.S. shale resource plays. Our drilling activity during 2011 has increased as we begin to pursue the potential of our recent acquisitions. In the Haynesville area, we have had drilling activity in the Woodardville, Jamestown, Bull Bayou, Metcalf and Grand Cane fields in Louisiana, and the Willow Springs field in East Texas. During 2010, 12 Haynesville area wells were drilled on our acreage, all of which were successful. We currently have a one rig program operating in the Haynesville area, and since the beginning of 2011, six Haynesville area wells have been drilled and completed on our acreage, all of which are now on production. In addition, we have six wells in progress, one is drilling and the remainder are in various stages of completion. We are targeting drilling a total of 15 Haynesville area wells in 2011.
In the Marcellus area, we successfully drilled and cased two horizontal wells in the Daniel Field in Cameron County during 2011. These wells are expected to be completed later this year. In parallel, we are working on expanding pipeline infrastructure, including options to connect with one of three major pipelines in Cameron County. We have obtained rights-of-way, and are currently in the process of obtaining permits and conducting a habitat study. Upon completion of these items, we expect to begin construction of a gathering line to tie our production to an existing pipeline.
Pending Acquisition
In July 2011, we entered into purchase and sale agreements with SM Energy Company and certain other minority owners to acquire the leasehold and producing interests held by SM Energy and its partners in the Marcellus shale in north-central Pennsylvania, as well as a pipeline and related facilities in McKean and Potter Counties, Pennsylvania, for aggregate consideration of $110 million. The transaction provides us with significant production and reserve potential on acreage that is adjacent to our existing Marcellus acreage and is readily available for development.

The assets include the following:
    Approximately 50,000 net acres of leasehold with 100 percent operated working interests in McKean and Potter counties;
 
    Current production from three existing wells of approximately three to four million cubic feet of natural gas per day, including the Potato Creek #3H well that initially flowed 11 million cubic feet of gas per day and is expected to recover in excess of 4 billion cubic feet of gas;
 
    100 percent ownership of Potato Creek LLC, which owns a midstream gathering system and related facilities in southern McKean County, including a 10-mile 16” trunkline connected and flowing to Tennessee Gas Pipeline’s 24” mainline; and
 
    Proprietary and fully processed 3-D seismic survey covering the entire Potato Creek lease block.
Following the completion of the transaction, our leasehold interests in the Marcellus Shale will total approximately 93,000 gross (68,000 net) acres. A new 7-year lease will be issued at closing on the key 21,000 net acre Potato Creek block that requires only five wells to be drilled in the first three years. Minimal capital is required over the next three years to hold all acreage in McKean County, including the key Potato Creek leasehold. The transaction is expected to close by the fourth quarter of 2011.
2011 Outlook and Liquidity
At the end of 2010, we expected to spend approximately $150 million on our 2011 oil and gas capital program and that our available cash at that time and our cash flow from operations would be sufficient to fund our capital expenditure program for the upcoming year. Those expectations included cash flow assumptions based on a mid-year production start for our Bacchus development, additional production from our U.S. drilling operations and some continued level of production at our Goldeneye field. We anticipated that our production would increase in the latter half of the year as Bacchus and U.S. production ramped up.
Our capital expenditure estimates for 2011 continue to follow our original expectation of $150 million for the year, however, due to the following factors, we may not experience the production increases in the second half of the year at the levels we originally anticipated. The delay in production increases is due to the three items that we expected to have the most impact on our 2011 production: Bacchus timing, U.S. drilling program results and the status of the Goldeneye field.
    The operator at Bacchus has experienced delays in moving the drilling rig to the location. Drilling, began in August 2011 and production is now anticipated from the first well during the fourth quarter. The second and third wells will subsequently be tied into production, without needing to move the rig.
 
    In the U.S., we have had drilling success and continue to tie in new wells but due to infrastructure issues, have not increased production at the rate that we had originally expected. We are working with the operators to increase access to major pipelines, expand pipeline infrastructure or other alternatives to market production.
 
    As discussed earlier, the Goldeneye field ceased production during the first quarter of 2011.

We announced a potential high-yield debt offering in June. When global economic worries created instability in the high-yield debt market, we chose to exercise financial discipline and avoid issuing debt at that time. However, but we remain optimistic that the market will regain its stability and be available to us should we decide to access it at a later date.
As we pushed our U.K. and U.S. capital programs forward, we reviewed opportunities to add resources that matched our strategic plan at reasonable rates of return for our shareholders. In July 2011, we finalized an opportunity to add to our position in the Marcellus area by acquiring property that had undeveloped acreage, the ability to increase our production and reserves over the next several years and a relatively new gathering pipeline in the area that connected to a major pipeline. We secure financing for this pending acquisition by issuing $135 million of 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes, at a time when the market value of our common stock was near its high for the previous 12 months.
Given the anticipated closing of the pending Marcellus acquisition in the fourth quarter and the requirement that only five wells be drilled in the first three years, we do not anticipate a significant change in our estimated 2011 capital expenditures upon closing the acquisition. We expect to incorporate the capital requirements of the new position into our existing capital plans. Going forward into next year, we expect a shift of capital expenditures from the Haynesville area to the Marcellus area.
Our primary sources of financial resources and liquidity are cash on hand, internally generated cash flows from operations and access to the credit and capital markets, to the extent necessary. In July 2011, and in addition to our issuance of the 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes, we also entered into an amendment to our Senior Term Loan providing for an increase of $75 million in the amounts available under the Senior Term Loan and immediately drew down the $75 million. The proceeds from the increased borrowings from our Senior Term Loan will be used for general corporate purposes, including funding a portion of our 2011 capital program and potential repayment of other outstanding indebtedness. If we do not complete the pending Marcellus acquisition, the net proceeds from our issuance of the 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes will also be used for general corporate purposes, including the potential repayment of certain of our outstanding indebtedness.
The following table sets forth our capitalization, cash equivalents and restricted cash at June 30, 2011 on:
    an actual basis; and
 
    an as adjusted basis to give effect to our issuance of 5.5% Convertible Senior Notes and our incremental borrowings under the amendment to the Senior Term Loan.
After giving effect to these transactions, we would have had $245 million in available cash as of June 30, 2011.

In addition to the factors identified above in this section, our cash flows will also be significantly impacted by the amount of oil and gas we produce and the price we obtain for our produced commodities. While we still expect our 2011 production to be greater than our 2010 production, that increase will not occur evenly throughout the year. Instead, the anticipated production increase is expected to occur in the fourth quarter. We expect our production in 2011 will grow from current levels as Bacchus achieves first production, new wells in our U.S. drilling program continue to add production and the pending Marcellus acquisition is closed. Each of these operational activities will have an impact on our 2011 production as follows:
    Initial production date of the Bacchus field — We expect to drill our initial development well and commence production early in the fourth quarter of 2011 and follow with two additional development wells thereafter. The precise initial production date, rate of production and how long it may take for Bacchus to reach full production are key variables to our overall 2011 production levels.
 
    U.S. drilling program results — Since the beginning of 2011, we have completed and begun producing from six wells. We currently have eleven wells in progress; with three of those wells drilling and the remainder awaiting or in the process of completion.
 
    Increased Marcellus production — The acreage in our Marcellus acquisition includes three currently producing wells. These wells produced an aggregate of approximately 4 MMcf/d during the six months ended June 30, 2011. The acreage is situated in close proximity to our existing Marcellus acreage.
Oil prices continue to be impacted by supply and demand on a worldwide basis. Although oil and gas prices have remained volatile, the full impact on our cash flows will be partially mitigated by our balance of gas to oil production and our commodity derivative positions.

Item 3:   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Commodity Price Risk
We produce and sell crude oil and natural gas. Realized pricing is primarily driven by the prevailing worldwide price for crude oil and regional gas spot market prices that have been volatile and unpredictable for several years. As a result, our financial results can be significantly impacted as these commodity prices fluctuate widely in response to changing market forces. We may engage in oil and gas hedging activities to realize commodity prices which we consider

Item 4:   Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Report, our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our chief executive officer (the “CEO”) and chief financial officer (the “CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(b) or 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded:
(i) that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (b) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure; and
(ii) that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2011.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f), and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange act of 1934, as amended), during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information
Item 1A:   Risk Factors
In addition to the factors discussed below and elsewhere in this report, including the financial statements and related notes, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described below and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 under Item 1A “Risk Factors,” which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. While these are the risks and uncertainties we believe are most important, you should know that they are not the only risks or uncertainties facing us or that may adversely affect our business. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also could impair our business operations and financial condition. If any of these risks or uncertainties were to occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation could be adversely affected.
Recently Proposed Rules Regulating Air Emissions from Oil and Gas Operations Could Cause Us to Incur Increased Capital Expenditures and Operating Costs
On July 28, 2011, the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) proposed rules that would establish new air emission controls for oil and natural gas production and natural gas processing operations. Specifically, the EPA’s proposed rule package includes New Source Performance Standards to address emissions of sulfur dioxide and volatile organic compounds (“VOCs”) and a separate set of emission standards to address hazardous air pollutants frequently associated with oil and natural gas production and processing activities. The EPA’s proposal would require the reduction of VOC emissions from oil and natural gas production facilities by mandating the use of “green completions” for hydraulic fracturing, which requires the operator to recover rather than vent the gas and natural gas liquids that come to the surface during completion of the fracturing process. The proposed rules also would establish specific requirements regarding emissions from compressors, dehydrators, storage tanks, and other production equipment. In addition, the rules would establish new leak detection requirements for natural gas processing plants. The EPA will receive public comment and hold hearings regarding the proposed rules and must take final action on them by February 28, 2012. If finalized, these rules could require a number of modifications to our operations, including the installation of new equipment. Compliance with such rules could result in significant costs, including increased capital expenditures and operating costs, and could adversely impact our business.
