1 Natural Gas Next: Texas and Southeast Gulf Outlook Charles Nevle Vice President September 25, 2017

2 Texas and Southeast Overview Irma and Harvey impact. Production: Permian, Eagle Ford and Haynesville. Demand: LNG, Mexican exports and what else??? How are flow pipeline changes in the Southeast and Texas being affected by the overall Lower 48 supply and demand dynamics? Expectations through Summer 2018.

3 Harvey Production Impact Dry Production (Bcf/d) /21/2017 7/21/2017 8/21/2017 Gulf of Mexico Southeast Texas Estimated Impact (Bcf) Texas 3.5 Southeast 2.1 Gulf of Mexico 10.2 Total 15.8

4 Harvey in Perspective Gulf of Mexico Dry Production Bcf/d Ike >300 Bcf Issac ~40 Bcf

5 Harvey Demand Impact More difficult to determine impact on demand due to other weather variations, etc. Estimated demand destruction is approximately 75 Bcf. Net impact (supply and demand) is a reduction of about 60 Bcf in consumption.

Bone Springs is primarily in New Mexico. Bone Springs formation depths 8,000-11,000 ft. Wolfcamp mainly depths of 9,000-12,000 ft. Bone Spring Wolfcamp Delaware Based on average 2016 wellhead production. Source: PointLogic Energy

15 Bone Springs Activity in 2015 and 2016 in this play has waned, with new horizontal wells declining from 704 in 2014 to 556 in 2015 and 290 in Concho drives growth across the play, contributing 26% of 2016 production. Devon s operated production in the basin declined 27% in 2016 as it allocated more capex to the STACK play. Top 40% of wells break even below $46/bbl, with 60% breaking even below $58/bbl. Efficiency increases continue (drilling faster, longer laterals, increasing proppant intensities) month over month. Recent upticks in drilling activity signal slight production increases in 2017 and 2018 in the play.

16 Wolfcamp Delaware Fastest-growing play in North America. Production continues to rise and could surpass the Bakken in oil production by the end of About 90% of production in five counties: Reeves, Loving, Culberson, Eddy and Lea. Production fairly concentrated, with about 50% of oil production coming from five operators: EOG, Cimarex, Anadarko, Concho and Occidental. Top 4 quintiles breakeven below $50/bbl, 60% of wells breakeven at or below $40/bbl. Wolfcamp Delaware breakevens are, on average, $15/bbl lower than Wolfcamp Midland.

18 Wolfcamp Delaware Operator Trends Peak rates on the rise led by EOG largely due to increased proppant use Proppant per foot on the rise led by EOG helping to boost productivity. Longer Laterals: better decline rates higher EUR s lower productivity Laterals getting longer led by Cimarex though this leads to lower average productivity rates but better decline rates and thus higher EUR s. Higher Proppant higher peak rates higher productivity minimal impact on decline rates EOG leads productivity increase.

19 Wolfcamp Midland Main growth is within the Northern Midland sub-play (Upton and Midland counties). Pioneer is the major operator in the play, accounting for 20% of production. Next-largest producers (Apache, Diamondback, Laredo Petroleum, ExxonMobil and Encana) are in the 5% range. Northern sub-play s attractiveness comes from access to multiple Wolfcamp benches, in addition to the Lower Spraberry Shale. Average breakevens in Northern Midland sub-play are near $40/bbl, with Eastern at about $60/bbl due to steeper decline rates, while lower productivity in the Southern sub-play puts breakevens around $68/bbl.

20 Eastern Permian Wolfcamp Midland MMcf/d Wolfcamp Midland Wolfcamp Midland is within the Midland Basin in the eastern portion of West Texas below the Panhandle. This play designation consists of the Spraberry, Dean and Wolfcamp. It is found at varying depths across the basin, most commonly at 4,500-9,500 ft. Wolfcamp Midland Based on average 2016 wellhead production. Source: PointLogic Energy

21 Wolfcamp Midland Operator Trends Pioneer main driver of peak rate increase. Operators have found >2,000 lb/ft decreases productivity. Extended laterals (greater than 8,000 ft) become the norm for several operators. Longer Laterals: higher peak rates higher productivity better decline rates higher EUR s Higher Proppant decreased productivity minimal impact on decline rates

22 Permian Continues to Grow, But More Slowly Bcf/d Permian Play Dry Production Permian Conventional Permian Unconventional Forecast Source: PointlLogic Energy Rig activity is expected to slow significantly in the Permian this fall rigs to fall modestly by the end of the year and steeper in Although production growth in 2018 is in line with 2017, the rate of growth is much slower. Yearend 2018 is only 0.7 Bcf/d higher than year-end Sufficient infrastructure available (oil, midstream and gas), given current projects through this forecast period.

24 Eagle Ford Turns a Corner? Eagle Ford Dry Gas Production Dec Bcf/d May Bcf/d Eagle Ford production declined 1.5 Bcf/d from Dec to May But over the past few months has increased by about 0.2 Bcf/d. Bcf/d Oil prices may limit growth in the near term. Several operators have reduced activity in the play and concentrated on the Permian and SCOOP/STACK Chesapeake and EOG remain fully committed to the play, contributing roughly 35% of the wedge volumes in the past 18 months. Eagleford-Dry Eagleford-Oil Eagleford-Wet Source: Pointlogic Energy Focus remains on oil with production growth attributed to associated gas.

25 Eagle Ford Rigs in Decline Eagle Ford Rig Counts Aug 4 th 81 Sep 22nd Grand Total Eagleford-Dry Eagleford-Oil Eagleford-Wet

26 Eagle Ford Production remains concentrated. Five companies make up about 60% of 2016 production: EOG, Chesapeake, Marathon, ConocoPhillips and Sanchez. Extended length laterals are seeing success in the western portion of the play, though development will likely be skewed to the oilier eastern portion of the play. EOG has been achieving positive results from a 220-ft. spacing program. If it becomes the new normal, vastly increases the remaining wells. Most activity has been focused on the Lower Eagle Ford, though operators are testing the Upper Eagle Ford despite its higher water content. Operators are also testing the Austin Chalk with favorable results so far.

27 Eagle Ford Grows then Slows Bcf/d Eagle Ford Play Dry Production History Forecast Source: PointlLogic Energy Despite increased activity from Chesapeake and EOG, the exit of capital from the play to focus on the higher returns in Permian and SCOOP/STACK (Devon, Marathon) prevents growth momentum from taking hold. Rig activity is expected to slow significantly in the Eagle Ford this fall, with rigs continuing to fall this year and in Gas production is expected to peak this winter and fall by 0.5 Bcf/d by the end of 2018.

28 Haynesville Dominates Southeast Production Bcf/d Haynesville-LA makes up nearly 75% of Southeast regional production. Haynesville-LA production has grown 0.9 Bcf/d (28%) since October Peak production was 7.0 Bcf/d in January Other Other-LA South Haynesville-LA Source: Pointlogic Energy

29 Haynesville is Back! (for a while) $2.5 billion is being invested in Haynesville in 2017, led by Chesapeake and Vine. Chesapeake and Vine make up nearly 70% of 2016 wedge production. Chesapeake finding growing success with longer laterals. Vine is focusing on increasing proppant loads. Challenges by 2019 for as best wells are exhausted making continued growth unlikely given current gas pricing.

31 Longer Lateral and Proppant Use Lead to Higher Productivity Haynesville More is More Longer Laterals: higher peak rates higher productivity better decline rates higher EUR s Higher Proppant increased productivity The Haynesville play has historically been drilled on 4,500 minimal ft laterals, impact with on some decline operators rates drilling the occasional 6,000 8,000 ft laterals; however, as of early 2016, 6,000 ft has become the new norm. Operators have tested extended-length laterals, reaching nearly 12,000 ft. These wells have shown higher peak rates and generally lower decline rates than the shorter laterals the play was historically developed with. Proppant intensities have doubled since 2012, with Vine and Comstock at the forefront. Chesapeake, despite extending laterals, has remained relatively consistent in proppant per foot intensities, though the operator has generated significantly improved production and productivity through high-grading. Productivity has shown a modest rebound since mid-2015, as operators have pushed higher proppant loads in the most productive portions of the play.

32 Haynesville Continues to Grow Bcf/d Haynesville Forecast Summer 2018 vs. Summer Haynesville to grow 0.8 Bcf/d in Summer 2018 vs. Summer End-October 2018 Haynesville production to be 6.4 Bcf/d. Beyond 2018, Haynesville growth will be challenged. Haynesville-TX Haynesville-LA Forecast

36 Pet-Chem Projects Lead Industrial Demand Growth Bulk of new petrochemical industrial projects are in the olefins (plastics) and ammonia (fertilizer) and related derivatives. Most of the gas-intensive projects are slated for buildout along the Gulf Coast in Louisiana and Texas, while a sizeable build out of ammonia facilities is also salted for the MidCon region. Overall gas demand growth from these projects will likely be less than the above projections due to project delays or cancellations and potential lower than full utilization.

46 Southeast Forecast Bcf/d Haynesville production drives a regional production surge. A return to a normal winter and the continued penetration of gas into the power generation market boosts Southeast demand. LNG exports growth from the region stunted by global LNG oversupply and competition from Cove Point. Southeast Demand Production LNG Exports Net Short The region becomes net shorter -- needing a record 13.7 Bcf/d of imports or storage withdrawals in December 2017 to balance.

51 Appendix

52 Texas Demand Cyclical but Steady Texas demand largely split between power and industrial sectors with little residential and commercial. Slight upward trend in power burn demand, other sectors flat. Power burn summer peaks are approximately equivalent to additions to residential and commercial increases that come in the winter.

53 Expected Normal Winter Boosts Demand Big year-on-year variation in size of winter residential and commercial peak. Weather dependent. Summer power peaks relatively steady.
