LUKOIL has published consolidated US GAAP financial statements for the first half of 2015.

Crude oil and natural gas liquids produced by the Group were 2,044 thousand barrels per day (+5.2% y-o-y). The increase was mainly due to the start of commercial production from West Qurna-2 project in Iraq. Moreover there was increase in production in Russia in Timan-Pechora (+9.6%), Volga region and Ural region (+3.6 and +2.4% respectively).

In the first half of 2015, sales revenues were $51,294 million (-30.6% y-o-y).

In the first half of 2015, our financial results were affected by a sharp decrease in the hydrocarbon prices and non-cash write-off in the amount of $324 million.

In the first half of 2015, our capital expenditures, including non-cash transactions, decreased by 31.1% to $5,320 million mostly due to ruble devaluation.

During the first half of 2015, the volume of our crude oil exports from Russia increased by 24.3%, and we exported 43.1% of our domestic crude oil production (34.7% – in the first half of 2014), including 794 thousand tonnes of crude oil purchased from our affiliates and third parties (161 thousand tonnes in the first half of 2014).
