(Trondheim, 3 February 2026) - In the fourth quarter of 2025, OKEA ASA (OSE:
OKEA) delivered operating income of USD 107 (224) million and EBITDA of USD 50
(117) million. The net loss of USD 18 (37) million was largely a result of a
significant underlift and impairments. The net cash position was USD 13 (123)
million. Guidance introduced for 2027 reflects completion of the Bestla
development project with expected production of 37 - 41 kboepd and capex of USD
230-290 million. Guidance for 2026 remains unchanged.

"We have completed 2025 with a high activity level throughout, and the fourth
quarter was no exception. Production for the year ended at 32.1 kboepd and capex
at USD 362 million, both within the guidance. I am proud of our accomplishments
in 2025 with new discoveries, stable production and solid project execution. I
am particularly proud of what we have achieved on the assets we operate, where
we continue to increase production volumes and extend the economic life and
value. These accomplishments, position OKEA well for 2026 and beyond. This is
also reflected in the 2027 guidance, where production is increased by more than
20%, and capex is decreased by nearly 30% compared to 2025", stated OKEA CEO,
Svein J. Liknes.
Fourth quarter 2025 summary
Net production was 30.8 (31.7) kboepd, the reduction was mainly due to lower
volumes from Brage and Statfjord, partly offset by an increase in volumes at
Gjøa and Nova.
Sold volumes amounted to 20.4 (36.3) kboepd. The average realised crude price
was USD 62.1 (70.6) per boe. The average realised NGL price was USD 40.9 (40.6)
per boe. The significant underlift of crude resulted in an average realised
liquids price of USD 52.4 (65.3) per boe as the relative share of NGLs increased
to 45% (18%) of total liquids sold in the quarter. The average realised price
for gas was USD 57.4 (65.7) per boe, of which a gain of USD nil (4.6) per boe
was attributable to hedging. Total operating income amounted to USD 107 (224)
million.
Total production expenses amounted to USD 87 (77) million, corresponding to USD
28.8 (24.5) per boe. The increased cost was mainly due to maintenance work at
Statfjord and Brage, as well as lower produced volume. Changes in over
-/underlift positions and production inventory resulted in income of USD 39
(expense of 19) million as produced volumes exceeded sold volumes.
Impairments of oil and gas assets of USD 57 (133) million on Statfjord and
technical goodwill of USD 5 (18) million on Gjøa/Nova and Draugen were mainly
due to lower forward prices. The related post-tax effect was USD 17 (47)
million.
Tax income was USD 42 (expense 62) million, and net loss after tax ended at USD
18 (37) million.
Cash flow generated from operations was USD 18 (169) million, down compared to
last quarter mainly due to the significant underlift in the quarter. The cash
balance ended at USD 252 (377) million. In addition to the cash balance, USD 57
(42) million were placed in money market funds. Interest-bearing bond loans were
unchanged at USD 295 (295) million, which brings the net cash position to USD 13
(123) million.

million.
Production guidance for 2026 remains unchanged at 31 - 35 kboepd. Capex guidance
for 2026 also remains unchanged at USD 300 - 360 million.
Production guidance for 2027 is introduced at 37 - 41 kboepd, reflecting start
-up of Bestla in early 2027. Capex guidance for 2027 is introduced at USD 230 -
290 million, reflecting completion of the Bestla development project.
