Newfield Notes Unaudited 2Q Financial Results
Newfield Exploration has reported its unaudited second quarter 2009 financial results.
"Our second quarter results show the diligent efforts of our employees to lower costs and improve margins throughout our focus areas," said President & CEO Lee K. Boothby. "We are seeing cost reductions throughout our operations. A combination of improving efficiencies in drilling and completions, falling service costs and a strong hedge position in 2009-2010 provides us with an advantage in today's challenging environment. Our production volumes are strong. In fact, we expect to be in the top half of our guidance range for 2009 AND we intend to continue deferring completions in the Woodford, as well as defer completions on the remainder of our planned Granite Wash wells in 2009.
"We are intensely focused on how we are allocating capital in our business units today, ensuring that dollars are flowing to the areas with the best returns and the highest growth prospects. We intend to meet our production targets in 2009 and are confident that our portfolio will allow us to grow production at similar percentage levels, within cash flow, in 2010-11."
