$9,006 million in 2010, which is 28.5% higher compared to 2009. EBITDA was
$16,049 million, which is 19.1% higher y-o-y. Sales revenues were $104,956
million (+29.4% y-o-y). Positive dynamic of our financial resultswas mainly
due to a sharp increase in hydrocarbon prices in2010 compared to 2009.
Capital expenditures including
non-cash transactions in 2010 were $6.8 billion, which is 4.7% higher y-o-y. The
Company’s strict financial discipline helped to generate record free cash
flow which reached $6,930 million in 2010 compared to $2,360 million in 2009.
In 2010, the Company’s tax
expenses totalled $30.2 billion, including income tax expense of $2.4
billion.
In 2010, lifting costs per boe of
production were $4.12, which is 15.7% higher y-o-y. The growth was mainly due to
the real ruble appreciation which reached 11.6%.
In 2010, LUKOIL Group total
hydrocarbon production available for sale reached 2,239 th. boe per day, which
is a 1.2% increase y-o-y.
In 2010, crude oil
production of LUKOIL Group totalled 95.99 mln tonnes. Natural and petroleum gas
output available for sale increased by 24.5%, to 18.55 bcm. Meanwhile, the
production of gas on our major gas field - Nakhodkinskoe field amounted to 8.15
bcm in 2010, which is 37.2% higher y-o-y. The growth was mainly due to increase
in purchases of our gas by OAO Gazprom (“Gazprom”) starting from the second half
of 2009.
In 2010 throughputs at the
Company’s refineries (including its share in crude oil and petroleum product
throughput at the ISAB and TRN refining complexes) increased by 5.5% y-o-y and
reached 66.18 mln tonnes. Throughputs at the Company’s refineries in Russia
increased by 1.7% y-o-y, throughputs at the Company’s international refineries

Measures aimed at higher
efficiency and cost control allow the Company to generate strong free cash flow
and increase net income.
