RESERVES AND RESOURCESProved reservesFrom the year ended 31 December 2013 onwards BG Group utilises the Petroleum Resources Management System published by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE PRMS) definition of proved reserves. Proved reserves are those quantities of petroleum, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be commercially recoverable, from a given date forward, from known reservoirs and under defined economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations.

Proved developed reserves are those reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells and with existing equipment and operating methods. Proved undeveloped reserves comprise total proved reserves less total proved developed reserves.

Probable reservesFrom the year ended 31 December 2013 onwards BG Group utilises the SPE PRMS definition of probable reserves. Probable reserves are those additional reserves which analysis of geoscience and engineering data indicate are less likely to be recovered than proved reserves but more certain to be recovered than possible reserves. It is equally likely that actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater than or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.

Discovered resourcesDiscovered resources are defined by BG Group as the best estimate of recoverable hydrocarbons where commercial and/or technical maturity is such that project sanction is not expected within the next three years.

Risked explorationRisked exploration resources are defined by BG Group as the best estimate (mean value) of recoverable hydrocarbons from undiscovered accumulations multiplied by the chance of success.

Total resourcesTotal resources are defined by BG Group as the aggregate of proved and probable reserves plus discovered resources and risked exploration. Total resources may also be referred to as total reserves and resources.

Further information on BG Group’s Reserves and Resources at 31 December 2013 can be found on page 134 of BG Group’s Annual Report and Accounts 2013.

BG Group has significant interests in three blocks in the Santos Basin, offshore Brazil. The exploration success, scale of resources discovered and production performance to

date have been exceptional. The first floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels on the Lula and Sapinhoá fields were brought into production around four years after exploration success. As at 31 July 2014, the BM-S-9 and BM-S-11 partners have three permanent FPSOs from which they are exporting crude oil, with two more expected to be deployed before the end of 2014. In total, 15 FPSOs have been contracted for deployment by the end of 2018 on the Group’s interests in the Santos Basin.

Mean total reserves and resources are estimated to amount to some 6 billion barrels of oil equivalent (boe) net to BG Group*. The aggregate range of total reserves and resources net to BG Group is from 4 billion boe (P90) to 8 billion boe (P10)*. The Lula, Sapinhoá, Iracema, Iara and Lapa discoveries account

for over 95% of BG Group’s mean total reserves and resources in the Santos Basin.

In 2012, BG Group received independent expert certification of these resource estimates from the oil and gas consulting firm Miller and Lents, Ltd (MLL). MLL was given full access to BG Group’s data and development models for these fields in order to undertake its probabilistic analysis**.

The current 15 FPSO programme in the Santos Basin is expected to deliver 2.6 mmboed of gross capacity.

The low unit cost of the Santos Basin development is a result of the excellent reservoir characteristics, which deliver high margins and an economic break-even at less than $40/bbl.

* Based on BG Group estimates, not the operator or consortium view** MLL was not asked to differentiate reserves from total discovered resource volumes

Upstream: E&PBM-S-9 SapinhoáIn 2008, the Sapinhoá well was announced as a discovery. In 2011, BG Group and partners announced the Declaration of Commerciality (DoC) with the Brazilian National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP) for the accumulation of light oil and gas in the Sapinhoá area. The DoC marks the start of the commercial production phase for the field and sets the licence period to run to 2038. In January 2013, first production from the Sapinhoá field commenced through the FPSO Cidade de São Paulo. The installation of the buoyancy supported riser (BSR) system was completed in 2014. In May 2014, the second and third wells achieved flow rates of around 34 000 bopd. With the connection and start-up of the fourth well, the FPSO reached its 120 000 bopd capacity.

The second FPSO (Cidade de Ilhabela) at Sapinhoá North, with capacity of up to 150 000 bopd and 212 million standard cubic feet of gas per day (mmscfd), is expected to be in operation in the second half of 2014.

Lapa (formerly Carioca)In 2007, the Lapa well was declared a discovery and in 2011, the results of an extended well test (EWT) on Lapa North-East indicated potential production of approximately 28 000 bopd, above initial expectations.

In December 2013, the consortium announced the DoC for the Lapa field to the ANP, which included the relinquishment of the areas of Abaré, Abaré West, Iguaçu and Iguaçu Mirim. First oil from a single FPSO development, the Cidade de Caraguatatuba, is expected in 2016.

BM-S-11Lula and IracemaThe Lula discovery well was drilled in 2006 and the Iracema discovery well, which confirmed the presence of light oil in the north-west of the evaluation area, was drilled in 2009. There has been significant activity on Lula and Iracema since the original discoveries were made including appraisal wells, drill stem tests (DSTs) and EWTs, with the information gathered supporting developments.

As at 31 July 2014, two permanent FPSOs on Lula are onstream. Production from the first permanent FPSO on the Lula field, the Cidade de Angra dos Reis, commenced in October 2010. The FPSO currently produces close to its 100 000 bopd capacity from just four producing wells, one conventional injector well and two water alternating gas (WAG) wells. WAG forms a key part of the consortium’s efforts in exploring the potential for enhanced oil recovery mechanisms to be deployed in the Santos Basin in the future. This process involves injecting water and gas alternately for certain time periods. The intention is to improve oil recovery

*The BM-S-10 block was relinquished and the concession finalisation processes are underway with the ANP

by reducing the oil’s viscosity and maintaining pressure support to aid the flow of oil towards the production well head. The first WAG well began injecting water in 2012, switching to the gas injection cycle in 2013. The second WAG well began injecting water in 2013. Initial pressure support has been positive. The consortium continues to monitor developments and test elsewhere, with a WAG well expected to be connected on Lula North-East in the first half of 2015.

Production from the Cidade de Paraty FPSO at Lula North-East commenced in June 2013 and is expected to be operating at around its 120 000 bopd capacity around the end of 2014 from just five producing wells, following the installation of the BSR system and additional well connections.

At Iracema, the operator expects to install the Cidade de Mangaratiba in the south of the discovery in the fourth quarter of 2014, with a second FPSO, Cidade de Itaguai, expected to be installed in the north in the fourth quarter of 2015. Both FPSOs have capacity for 150 000 bopd and 283 mmscfd.

In 2014, the BM-S-11 consortium began a confidential arbitration process in accordance with the concession agreement in response to the ANP’s decision determining the unification of the Lula and Iracema discoveries.

IaraIn 2008, BG Group announced Iara as an oil discovery and in 2011, drilling on the Iara Horst well was successfully completed. The Iara Horst well encountered good quality oil in a thick reservoir section with initial results and subsequent DST demonstrating superior reservoir characteristics to the discovery well located around eight kilometres away.

In 2012, the Iara West well was drilled successfully, confirming the westerly extension of the Iara accumulation. In 2013, a fourth appraisal well was drilled and tested with excellent results. Subsequently, the first high-angle well was drilled, finding similar reservoir characteristics to the original Iara discovery well with the later DST results in line with expectations.

Appraisal activity continues at Iara, gathering data ahead of the DoC, which is due at the end of 2014. In May, a DST was undertaken at a well in the south-west flowing at around 5 000 bopd and a further appraisal well began drilling in the north-east with results, including a DST, expected in the fourth quarter. In June, an EWT began on the Iara-4 appraisal well in the west. Initial average flow rates of around 29 000 bopd were in line with expectations, with testing to continue into the coming months.

Data from these activities, as well as any additional future appraisal work, will help formulate the development plan for the Iara area which will be submitted in 2015 after the DoC. Currently the consortium has allocated two FPSOs to the Iara development.

BM-S-50SagitárioIn 2013, the Sagitário well, the first to be drilled on BM-S-50, was declared a discovery. In May 2014, the consortium completed a formation test on

this well revealing carbonate reservoirs of good quality. The consortium continues with the activities outlined in the approved Discovery Evaluation Plan.

Oil evacuationDuring 2011, BG Group chartered the oil tanker Windsor Knutsen, a conversion from a conventional Suezmax tanker with the capacity to hold 1.1 million barrels (mmbbls) of crude oil, to transport BG Group’s equity oil from Brazil. First crude oil from the Lula FPSO was lifted in July 2011 and delivered in August 2011.

The Windsor Knutsen charter has now ended as the Group has chartered four new Suezmax shuttle tankers to manage the increasing oil production, initially for ten years with certain extension options. The Samba Spirit, Lambada Spirit and Bossa Nova Spirit arrived in Brazil in 2013, with the Sertanejo Spirit arriving in early 2014. All vessels are currently in operation. Oil shipping and marketing activities are managed by GEMS (see pages 34 to 36 for details).

As at 31 July 2014, a total of 31 liftings of around 1 mmbbls each have been made by BG Group from the three producing FPSOs at Lula and Sapinhoá.

Gas evacuationWhile the majority of the gas produced is initially being used for re-injection, development plans for the associated gas resources in the Group’s Santos Basin interests have continued to advance.

In 2010, a new pipeline was installed connecting the Lula field to the Mexilhão gas hub. This pipeline has been used to export gas from the first Lula FPSO since 2011 and has since been connected to the Sapinhoá South and Lula North-East FPSOs.

A second export route, the Cabiúnas pipeline, is currently under construction having received the relevant installation licences in 2014. The pipeline will span approximately 380 kilometres and will connect the Lula field to a terminal in Cabiúnas, 180 kilometres north-east of Rio de Janeiro. The operator expects the pipeline to be installed in 2015, and its onshore gas processing plant to be operational later in 2015. This export route will provide capacity for further FPSOs.

Barreirinhas BasinIn May 2013, BG Group was awarded operatorship of 10 offshore blocks covering around 7 000 square kilometres in the frontier Barreirinhas Basin, along Brazil’s northern equatorial margin.

In April 2014, BG Group farmed down 25% of its interests in the BAR-M-215, 217, 252 and 254 blocks to PTT Exploration and Production Public Company Limited (PTTEP).

In the first five year exploration phase, BG Group’s work programme will incorporate a combination of full block seismic acquisition and processing and a number of wells. Seismic acquisition will begin once the required environmental permitting has been received.

● Major shareholdings in the two-train liquefaction facility, including 100% equity in common facilities such as the LNG storage tanks and jetty; and

● The 140 megawatt Condamine power station.

BG Group entered Australia in 2008 via an alliance with Queensland Gas Company (QGC), acquiring a 20% interest in QGC’s CSG assets in the Surat Basin, southern Queensland, and a 9.9% stake in QGC. After a successful drilling campaign and the decision to develop a multi-train LNG project, the Boards of BG Group and QGC agreed the terms of a takeover, completed in 2009. To secure additional CSG resource BG Group also acquired Pure Energy Resources Limited in 2009.

Subsequently, BG Group sold certain additional interests to CNOOC and Tokyo Gas, with CNOOC now holding 50% equity in Train 1 and Tokyo Gas holding 2.5% equity in Train 2.

QCLNGBG Group is developing a two-train 8.5 mtpa LNG plant supplied by coal seam gas (CSG). The Queensland Curtis LNG (QCLNG) plant is being built on a 270 hectare site on Curtis Island, Gladstone, on the Queensland coast.

BG Group’s business in Australia comprises: ● Licences in four onshore areas of producing and potential gas supply covering a total of around 33 000 square kilometres. The project’s total reserves and resources at the end of 2013 were around 22 tcf (net BG Group):

– Surat Basin CSG play: producing gas for the domestic market and will provide production into the LNG plant;

– Bowen Basin CSG play: exploration and appraisal ongoing;

– Bowen Basin tight gas sand play: exploration and appraisal ongoing;

– Cooper Basin tight gas sand and shale gas plays: exploration and appraisal ongoing;

● A 540 kilometre pipeline network comprising a 200 kilometre gas collection header and a 340 kilometre export pipeline;

Upstream: E&PProduction is currently sold into the domestic market while future production will principally supply the LNG project. On plateau, it is envisaged that gross production to supply the LNG plant and the domestic market will be around 250 000 boed.

The first phase upstream development is expected to comprise approximately 2 000 wells, rising to more than 6 000 wells over the life of the two LNG trains. Drilling is on track, with more than 2 150 wells drilled by the end of June 2014, with around 1 100 wells available for production or dewatering. BG Group expects to drill on average 50 wells per month and at the end of July 2014 had nine drilling rigs operating in the Surat Basin.

The Ruby Jo, Bellevue, Jordan and Woleebee Creek hubs in the Surat Basin will feed the QCLNG plant. In the South region, the Ruby Jo central processing plant (CPP) commenced operation in April 2014, being supplied by six field compression stations (FCSs). In the Central region, three FCSs and the Bellevue CPP are expected to be ready for operations ahead of Train 1 start-up. The Jordan and Woleebee Creek hubs will provide additional production to assist in meeting the demand from the second train coming online. In total, the Surat Basin will utilise four CPPs and 17 FCSs to supply the QCLNG plant’s two trains.

Given the dewatering and ramp up profile of coal seam gas, BG Group is utilising both equity gas and third-party gas to ensure the LNG plant is filled to capacity. During the ramp up of the LNG plant in 2015-16 it is expected that short-term third-party gas will provide around 10-20% of throughput in any given year and less than 5% once on plateau.

In 2010, BG Group and Australia Pacific LNG (APLNG) agreed a framework for the development of jointly owned CSG tenements ATP 648P and ATP 620P. BG Group also entered into conditional gas purchase agreements with APLNG under which BG Group expects to buy 145 petajoules (PJ) of gas over an initial 15 month period, reducing thereafter to an average of 25 PJ per annum. The start of gas sales is aligned with the start of commercial operations at the QCLNG project.

Additionally, to help manage gas ramp-up, BG Group has entered into an agreement with AGL Energy Limited (AGL) whereby AGL will use a depleted field near Wallumbilla in the Surat Basin to store QGC gas for a fee for seven years from 2011.

Exploration and appraisal activities continue in order to develop the most economic resource.

In the Bowen tight gas sand play, four wells have been drilled and preparations are ongoing for a further drilling campaign. The next well is

expected to commence drilling in the fourth quarter of 2014. In the Bowen CSG play, BG Group will focus on monitoring pilot production from existing well stock; a technical review is ongoing to assess the potential for further drilling. The deepening and logging of the first well in the current campaign in the Cooper tight gas and shale gas plays has been completed. Work is now focusing on deepening the second well with production testing due to commence in the third quarter of 2014.

Upstream: InfrastructureBG Group has constructed a 540 kilometre pipeline network, comprising a 200 kilometre gas collection header and a 340 kilometre export pipeline, to link the gas fields in the Surat Basin to the LNG plant on Curtis Island.

BG Group treats produced water for use by local landholders, industry and communities. The water treatment plant at Windibri is in

operation and has a capacity of some 6 million litres per day. The water treatment facility at Kenya, a 92 million litre per day plant, is also in operation with first water exported in 2013. The Northern water treatment plant is situated at Woleebee Creek and will have a capacity of 100 million litres per day.

Upstream: LiquefactionConstruction of the 8.5 mtpa LNG plant continues on Curtis Island. Both LNG storage tank roofs were raised in 2013 and hydrotesting of the first tank was completed in the first quarter of 2014. Progress on the plant continues with the gas turbine generators having begun commissioning in the second quarter of 2014. Commissioning of the refrigeration turbines and compressors is expected in the third quarter of 2014, which are important steps prior to cooling Train 1 and producing first LNG in the fourth quarter.

LNG Shipping & MarketingAs a key portfolio supply source, QCLNG volumes will be delivered to BG Group’s worldwide customers, including China, Japan, Singapore, India and Chile.

In 2010, BG Group signed a LNG sales contract with CNOOC. Under the terms of parallel agreements between BG Group and CNOOC:

● CNOOC will be supplied with 3.6 mtpa of LNG over a 20 year period;

● CNOOC acquired a 5% equity interest in the reserves and resources of certain BG Group tenements in the Surat Basin in Queensland;

● CNOOC became a 10% equity investor in Train 1; and

● BG Group and CNOOC agreed to participate jointly in a consortium to construct two LNG ships in China that will be owned by the consortium.

Further, in May 2013, BG Group announced it had signed a binding agreement with CNOOC for the sale of certain interests in the QCLNG project for $1.93 billion and the sale of an additional 5 mtpa of LNG from BG Group’s global portfolio, beginning in 2015. Additionally, CNOOC reimbursed BG Group for its share of QCLNG project expenditure incurred from 1 January 2012. In November 2013, transactions were completed with CNOOC. The key terms of the transaction were:

● BG Group sold certain interests in upstream coal seam gas tenements in Australia and a further equity stake in the QCLNG project Train 1 liquefaction facility;

● BG Group will supply CNOOC with a further 5 mtpa of LNG for 20 years beginning in 2015, sourced from the Group’s global portfolio;

● CNOOC acquired a 40% equity interest in QCLNG Train 1, increasing its equity ownership from 10% to 50%;

● CNOOC acquired a 20% interest in the reserves and resources of certain BG Group tenements in the Walloons Fairway region of the Surat Basin, Queensland, increasing its ownership from 5% to 25%;

● CNOOC acquired a 25% equity interest in certain other upstream tenements held by BG Group in the Surat and Bowen Basins, Queensland;

● BG Group and CNOOC will jointly invest in the construction of two LNG ships in China, adding to the two ships already committed under the LNG agreements signed in March 2010; and

● CNOOC will have the option to participate up to 25% in one of the potential expansion trains at QCLNG.

The agreements exclude any interest in the Train 2 liquefaction facility, pipelines and QCLNG project common facilities. BG Group retains majority ownership of the QCLNG project. In particular, BG Group has around 74% of its original interest in the upstream resource and related infrastructure; and 100% of the project’s common facilities on Curtis Island (including LNG storage tanks and jetty) and the 540 kilometre natural gas pipeline network linking the gas fields to Curtis Island. Together, these items represent approximately 30% of the estimated $20.4 billion 2011-2014 project spend.

In 2011, BG Group signed a sales agreement with Tokyo Gas. Under the agreement:

● Tokyo Gas will buy 1.2 mtpa of LNG for 20 years from 2015;

● Tokyo Gas acquired a 1.25% interest in the reserves and resources of certain BG Group tenements in the Walloons Fairway; and

● Tokyo Gas became a 2.5% equity investor in the second of the two liquefaction trains.

BG Group also signed a sales agreement with Chubu Electric Power Co. Inc, (Chubu Electric) for the long-term supply of LNG. Under the agreement, Chubu Electric will purchase up to 122 cargoes over 21 years, starting in 2014. Condamine power stationBG Group also operates Condamine power station, which is fuelled by CSG produced at QGC’s gasfields in the Surat Basin. With a potential generating capacity of 140 megawatts, the station provides power to the National Electricity Market.

BG Group played a leading role in the development of Egypt’s natural gas industry, and is one of the country’s largest gas producers. The Group’s activities in Egypt span the gas chain from exploration, through development and production, to LNG.

New information ● BG Group issued Force Majeure under its LNG agreements

● Notus well completed with evaluation ongoing

Key dates1995 Rosetta and WDDM Concessions awarded2001 Rosetta first production2003 WDDM first production2004 Additional 40% in Rosetta acquired2005 Egyptian LNG Trains 1 and 2 exports began2013 WDDM Phase 9a sanctioned

● Non-operated interest in the East El Burullus Offshore Concession (EEBO); and

● Major shareholdings in the two-train Egyptian LNG project.

Upstream development and production activities in Egypt are undertaken through joint operating companies. In the case of Rosetta, this is through Rashid Petroleum Company (Rashpetco), and in the case of WDDM, this is through Burullus Gas Company (Burullus). These operating companies are 50% owned by the Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation (EGPC), the body representing the Egyptian government in the petroleum sector. BG Group and its partners in each concession hold the remaining 50%.

The difficult operating environment in Egypt, coupled with lower reserves estimates, has led the Group to revise its expectations of the value of its Egyptian operations. Production volumes declined throughout 2013 and 2014 as a result of deteriorating reservoir performance and the continuing high level of diversions to the domestic market, where the Group is entitled to a lower share of production.

In January 2014, BG Group issued Force Majeure notices under its LNG agreements in Egypt reflecting the ongoing diversions of gas volumes to the domestic market in excess of the existing pooling arrangements. Looking forward, the strong likelihood of continued diversions to the domestic market, combined with further reservoir deterioration, means that the Group currently expects very limited cargoes to be lifted from Egyptian LNG for the foreseeable future.

In the second quarter of 2014, Upstream and LNG activities in Egypt accounted for 10% of BG Group’s production and around 6% of earnings from continuing operations. The book value of BG Group’s investment in Egypt as at 30 June 2014, including receivables, was $2.8 billion, of which $0.2 billion relates to Egyptian LNG. The receivables balance was $1.5 billion with $1.2 billion overdue. Release of funds for any further development, including Phase 9b, remains contingent upon an improvement in the investment climate including a significant improvement in the outstanding receivable position.

BG Group’s business in Egypt comprises: ● Operatorship of two gas-producing areas offshore the Nile Delta:

– the Rosetta Concession; and – the WDDM Concession;

● Operatorship of three other concessions offshore the Nile Delta:

– El Manzala Offshore (EMO); – El Burg Offshore (EBO); and – North Gamasa Offshore (NGO);

Upstream: E&PWDDM ConcessionSince 1994, BG Group and partners have discovered 18 gas fields, with Scarab, Saffron, Simian, Sienna, Sapphire, Serpent, Saurus, Sequoia, SimSat-P2, Sapsat-1, Sapsat-2 and Swan in production. WDDM infrastructure is designed to supply gas to the domestic market and Egyptian LNG at Idku.

Scarab, Saffron Scarab, Saffron, the first deep water sub-sea developments in Egypt, started production in 2003 and supply gas to the domestic market. These facilities consist of eight sub-sea wells connected to a sub-sea manifold, in turn connected by pipelines to an onshore processing terminal. The fields are located approximately 90 kilometres from the shore and in water depths of more than 700 metres.

Simian, Sienna and SapphireThe Simian and Sienna fields are contracted to supply Egyptian LNG Train 1, while the Sapphire field is contracted to supply Egyptian LNG Train 2. These fields are located approximately 120 kilometres offshore Idku, near Alexandria. The facilities consist of 16 sub-sea wells tied into the existing WDDM gas gathering network and a shallow water control platform. The onshore

processing facilities form part of the Idku Gas Hub where the Egyptian LNG facilities are located.

WDDM additional phasesThe WDDM fields have undergone a number of development phases to maximise hydrocarbon recovery. Phase 4 brought seven additional wells onstream during 2008, with Phase 6 in 2009 adding three unitised Sequoia wells, and Phases 8a and 8b delivering another 17 sub-sea wells between 2011 and 2012. With the completion of the Phase 8a and 8b projects, the WDDM Concession has a total of 53 sub-sea wells. Phases 5 and 7 were compression projects, including installation of seven onshore compressors in total and additional gas gathering and receiving facilities, including a new 68 kilometre, 36-inch offshore pipeline.

Phase 9a was sanctioned in 2013 with the first well onstream in July 2014. This nine well development will only temporarily offset underlying production declines.

Rosetta ConcessionRosetta supplies gas to the domestic market and started production in 2001. In 2008, BG Group delivered first gas from the Rosetta Phase 3 field development plan. The project consists of five wells tied back to the first two phases of Rosetta.

SequoiaThe unitised development (Rosetta Phase 4/WDDM Phase 6) of the Sequoia field (BG Group 62.99%), which lies across the boundary of the WDDM and Rosetta Concessions, was sanctioned in 2008. It consists of six sub-sea wells: three wells on each of WDDM and Rosetta tied back to existing infrastructure.

El Manzala Offshore and El Burg Offshore ConcessionsIn 2005, BG Group signed the El Manzala Offshore (EMO) and El Burg Offshore (EBO) concession agreements for the exploration of gas and oil with the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding

Company (EGAS). Exploration drilling on EMO and EBO commenced in 2008. BG Group holds 50% equity in EMO, where the Zonda well was drilled in 2011 but failed to discover commercial hydrocarbons. A two-well programme on EBO commenced in 2012. The first well, Harmattan Deep-1, was declared a discovery in 2012. The Notus well, which is testing a new Oligocene play, encountered gas at a number of target horizons in December 2013. Evaluation of the results for both discoveries is ongoing.

North Gamasa Offshore ConcessionBG Group holds 60% equity in, and is operator of the North Gamasa Offshore (NGO) block. The block covers an area of 281 square kilometres and is located 20 kilometres from the coast in shallow water. The concession agreement formalising the award was signed in early 2010 with 3D seismic acquisition completed later that year. In 2014, the Opera well was drilled. The well failed to discover commercial hydrocarbons.

East El Burullus Offshore ConcessionBG Group farmed in to the EEBO Concession in 2012, taking a 40% interest. The Kala-1 well was completed in December 2013 but was a dry hole.

Upstream: LiquefactionEgyptian LNGThe Egyptian LNG facilities, located at Idku, comprise the two LNG production trains and include the common facilities such as storage tanks, loading jetty and utilities.

Egyptian LNG Company owns both the Egyptian LNG site and common facilities. Its sister company, The Egyptian Operating Company for Natural Gas Liquefaction Projects (Opco) (BG Group 35.5%) undertakes the operation of all trains and common facilities. El Beheira Natural Gas Liquefaction Company (Train 1 Co.) (BG Group 35.5%) owns Train 1, and Idku Natural Gas Liquefaction Company (Train 2 Co.) (BG Group 38%) owns Train 2.

BG Group and partners supply Egyptian LNG with gas from the Simian, Sienna, Sapphire and Sequoia fields in WDDM. Together, these trains have a productive capacity of 7.2 mtpa of LNG.

The 3.6 mtpa productive capacity of Train 1 has been sold to GDF SUEZ under a 20 year SPA. The first LNG cargo was lifted in May 2005.

The 3.6 mtpa productive capacity of Train 2 has been sold under a 20 year agreement to BG Gas Marketing (BGGM), a wholly owned BG Group subsidiary which is operated by GEMS. The first LNG cargo was lifted in September 2005.

In January 2014, BG Group issued Force Majeure notices under its LNG agreements in Egypt reflecting the ongoing diversions of gas volumes to the domestic market in excess of the existing pooling arrangements. Consequently, volumes from Egyptian LNG were severely restricted. As of July 2014, the plant was only running with one train, which was at a significantly reduced level.

BG Group’s position is focused in the central North Sea where the Group is operator of three mature platforms and infrastructure hubs: Armada, Everest and Lomond. The focus for these assets is on maximising the remaining value and continuing with a rigorous approach to maintenance and asset integrity. In parallel, BG Group continues to pursue suitable opportunities around these infrastructure hubs to increase future value.

BG Group also has a number of important non-operated interests in the central North Sea: the Buzzard field operated by Nexen (a wholly-owned subsidiary of CNOOC), the Elgin/Franklin fields operated by Total and the J-Area fields (J-Block, Jade and Jasmine) operated by ConocoPhillips.

The Group remains interested in exploration opportunities and is also progressing the Jackdaw development which is in the concept select phase.

Upstream: E&P Operated assets Armada Hub Area The Armada gas condensate fields (Fleming, Drake and Hawkins) achieved first production in 1997. The SW Seymour area of the Seymour field was appraised successfully and drilled from the Armada platform, with first production in 2003. A second well in the NW Seymour area was brought into production in 2006 and a replacement well was drilled in 2011.

The Maria field was developed via two sub-sea wells tied back to the Armada platform, with first production in 2007.

The commingled stream of Armada, Seymour and Maria gas is exported via the Central Area Transmission (CATS) terminal on Teesside. Liquids are transported through the Forties Pipeline System (FPS) to the Kinneil processing plant at Grangemouth.

The Armada hub also services two fields in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea via tie-backs: the third-party Rev field and the BG Group-operated Gaupe field.

Blake The Blake field, located in the Outer Moray Firth, had first production in 2001. The field was developed in two phases. Phase One was the Blake Channel, which is a sub-sea development of six producing wells and two water-injection

wells, tied back to an existing floating production, storage and offloading vessel (FPSO) located over the third-party Ross field some 9.5 kilometres away. Development of Phase Two, the Blake Flank, was completed and production commenced from two wells in 2003. This sub-sea development is tied back through the existing Blake facilities to the Ross FPSO.

Everest and Lomond Everest and Lomond are located in the central North Sea and first production began on each in 1993. Gas produced from the two fields is exported via the CATS pipeline and produced liquids are exported via FPS to the Kinneil processing plant.

The Lomond platform also provides production facilities for the Erskine field.

Everest field production was enhanced in March 2013 with first gas from the Everest East expansion project, which comprises two sub-sea wells tied back to the North Everest platform and brownfield modifications to the existing production system. Investment in maintenance and asset integrity continues on both facilities with a major flotel campaign due to start in October 2014 and last for around six months.

Jackdaw The Jackdaw discovery is one of the largest undeveloped gas discoveries in the UK Continental Shelf. Discovered in 2005, the field was appraised between 2007 and 2012. Results from the exploration and appraisal programme are being used to evaluate potential development concepts.

Non-operated assetsBuzzardThe Nexen-operated Buzzard oil field in the Outer Moray Firth came onstream in 2007. The facilities consist of a complex of four bridge-linked platforms, with oil export via FPS and gas export via the Frigg System. In 2010, an additional processing platform to remove hydrogen sulphide and extend plateau production was installed. Commissioning and start-up of this platform was completed in 2011.

The development drilling programme and field production plateau have continued significantly beyond initial expectations. The field partners anticipate sanctioning the Buzzard Phase 2 project in 2015, including the development of the northern area of the field plus the resumption of infill drilling at the existing platform location. Estimated total recoverable resources from the Buzzard field are around 800 mmboe.

Elgin/Franklin Area The high-pressure/high-temperature (HPHT) Elgin/Franklin gas condensate fields are located in the Central Graben area of the central North Sea and operated by Total. The fields began production in 2001. In March 2013, production restarted from three wells on Elgin/Franklin following a year-long shut-in. Production is not expected to recover to pre shut-down levels until 2016.

West Franklin started production in 2007. In 2008, the West Franklin B appraisal well identified additional potential reserves and Phase 2 of the development of the West Franklin field was sanctioned. It aims to produce estimated reserves of 85 mmboe. The development involves the drilling of three wells and the installation of a new platform tied back to the Elgin/Franklin facilities. Production is expected to commence in the fourth quarter of 2014.

The HPHT Glenelg field started production in 2006. The field has been developed through a single well drilled from the Elgin wellhead platform.

Elgin/Franklin, West Franklin and Glenelg gas is exported through SEAL to the onshore gas reception facilities at Bacton in Norfolk. Liquids are exported through FPS to the Kinneil processing plant at Grangemouth.

ErskineGas and liquids produced from the HPHT Erskine field, located in the central North Sea, are processed on the Lomond platform, with gas then transported via the CATS pipeline and liquids via FPS.

J-Area The Judy/Joanne (J-Block) gas condensate/oil fields and Jade gas condensate field are located in the central North Sea. Production from J-Block commenced in 1997 and from Jade in 2002.

The Joanne field is a sub-sea development tied back to the manned Judy platform through two 5.5 kilometre pipelines. The Judy/Joanne fields currently produce from 16 wells.

Jade was developed using a normally unmanned wellhead platform and currently produces from eight wells. Production from Jade is exported via a sub-sea pipeline to the Judy platform where it is commingled and processed with Judy and Joanne production. Gas processed on the Judy platform is transported through the CATS pipeline and liquids are transported to Teesside through the Norpipe system.

Jasmine lies nine kilometres east of the Judy platform and straddles Blocks 30/6 and 30/7. The development started production in November 2013 and comprises a wellhead platform, with a separate bridge-linked accommodation platform, tied back via a multi-phase pipeline and a new riser platform to the existing Judy production facilities.

Offshore pipelines SEAL and SILK BG Group has a 7.86% interest in SEAL, a 474 kilometre gas export pipeline to the Bacton terminal. With capacity of around 1 150 mmscfd of dry gas, it has been transporting gas from the Elgin/Franklin and Shearwater fields since 2001.

BG Group also has a 15.98% interest in the 900 metre SILK pipeline that provides direct access from the SEAL pipeline to the UK-Continent Interconnector pipeline.

CATS In July 2014, BG Group sold its 62.78% interest in the CATS pipeline and terminal system. The sale does not impact BG Group’s rights to capacity in CATS, as a shipper.

LNG Shipping & MarketingBG Group’s UK downstream activities are managed by GEMS and encompass LNG importation, via Dragon LNG, and energy marketing. BG Group sells gas on a wholesale basis and exports gas to, and imports from, mainland Europe via the Interconnector. For details, see GEMS section on pages 34 to 36.

Upstream: E&P Central North Sea (CNS)(3 licences, 2 operated) BG Group first entered Norway in the central North Sea, applying its UK Central Graben expertise and experience across the Norwegian median line area.

In 2008, a discovery was declared on Pi North, now renamed Gaupe. Gaupe spans PL292 and PL292B (BG Group 60% and operator). The field began production in 2012 through a two-well sub-sea tie-back to the Group’s Armada infrastructure in the UK.

Northern North Sea (NNS)(4 licences, 3 operated) In 2008, a discovery was made with the Jordbær exploration well (PL373S) (BG Group 45% and operator), renamed Knarr. The development of Knarr West was integrated into the Knarr project in 2011, raising gross reserves to around 80 mmboe. The Knarr FPSO is due to come onstream in the fourth quarter of 2014, subject to the receipt of Norwegian regulatory approvals and favourable weather conditions during mooring and well connection activities.

In 2012, BG Group was awarded PL638 in the Knarr area (BG Group 36% and operator). Two further licences, PL679S (BG Group 60%

and operator) and PL688 (BG Group 50%), were awarded in 2013.

Mid-Norway (1 licence, 1 operated) In 2009, BG Group completed a seismic survey on PL522 and drilled a commitment well in 2011. BG Group is currently reviewing its acreage in mid-Norway.

Barents Sea (2 licences, 1 operated) In 2007, the Nucula well in PL393 (BG Group 20%) was declared a discovery and was subsequently appraised in 2008.

The Hegg licence (PL534) (BG Group 40% and operator), was awarded in 2009 and a 3D seismic survey acquired in 2010.

BG Group is currently participating in the Barents Sea South East seismic campaign ahead of a possible future licence bid.

BG Group is joint operator of the giant Karachaganak gas condensate field, where it has a 40 year concession, and is a shareholder in the Caspian Pipeline Consortium.

Upstream: E&PKarachaganakKarachaganak, discovered in 1979, is one of the world’s largest gas and condensate fields. Located in north-west Kazakhstan, it holds estimated hydrocarbons initially in place (HIIP) totalling 9 billion bbls of condensate and 48 tcf of gas, with estimated gross reserves of more than 2.4 billion bbls of condensate and 16 tcf of gas. Only around 10% of the HIIP has been recovered to date.

Production from the Karachaganak field began in 1984. Since the signing of the Final Production Sharing Agreement (FPSA) in 1997, the Karachaganak partners have made substantial investment in wells, facilities and pipelines. In addition to its size, Karachaganak presents the operators with formidable challenges because of extreme climate swings (+/- 40 degrees centigrade) and the requirement to re-inject high pressure sour gas.

The FPSA envisaged a phased development programme. Phase 2, which came onstream in 2004, involved investment to enhance the existing facilities, construction of new gas and liquids processing and gas injection facilities, workover of more than 100 wells, construction of a 120 megawatt power station and a new 650 kilometre pipeline to connect the field to the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) pipeline at Atyrau.

Most of the liquids are exported to the west (92% in 2013), with some oil and all raw gas sold locally and into Russia. Since 2004, oil exports have been mainly channelled via the CPC pipeline and, since 2006, additional oil exports have been routed via the Atyrau-Samara pipeline enabling sales to achieve international prices. In 2011, a fourth liquids stabilisation train commenced operation. The project increased firm stabilisation capacity up to 10.3 mtpa.

In 2012, a settlement agreement between the Republic of Kazakhstan (the Republic) and the Karachaganak partners was completed. Under the terms of the agreement, the Republic acquired a 10% interest in the FPSA from the consortium for $2.0 billion cash and $1.0 billion non-cash consideration (pre-tax) including the final and irrevocable settlement of all cost recovery claims, with each of the contracting companies’ equity shares reducing proportionately (BG Group’s share reducing from 32.5% to 29.25%). The Republic’s interest is held by a subsidiary of the national oil company, KazMunaiGas (KMG). The consideration under the agreement also includes the allocation of an additional 2 mtpa capacity in the CPC export pipeline over the remaining life of the FPSA, bringing total capacity for the use of the Karachaganak project to 10.4 mtpa on completion of the CPC expansion project, expected in 2016.

The partners are currently conducting a number of projects aimed at extending the liquids offtake from the field. This includes an ongoing drilling programme comprising horizontal development wells into the oil rim and a number of medium-sized projects intended to de-bottleneck the field’s gas processing and injection facilities.

BG Group and its partners are also working to define the next phase of major field development. The Karachaganak Expansion Project is exploring opportunities to identify the optimal method of installing additional gas handling capacity to maximise utilisation of liquid stabilisation trains as the field’s gas-oil ratio increases. Under current plans the gross production of the Karachaganak field will be maintained, although changes in production entitlement under the FPSA will lower BG Group’s net entitlement.

OtherCaspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC)BG Group has a 2% equity share in the pipeline but is entitled to 2.75 mtpa (55 000 bopd) of capacity (around 10% of the total), which is used to transport liquids. BG Group and the Karachaganak partners also have the opportunity to capture capacity unused by other shareholders. Liquids deliveries into CPC began in 2004 and, in 2013, 8.3 million tonnes of liquids from Karachaganak were transported via CPC (BG Group 2.1 million tonnes).

In 2010, the CPC shareholders sanctioned the CPC expansion project, which will more than double capacity in three phases, with completion expected in 2016. Total gross capacity will increase to 67 mtpa. Following expansion, and the allocation of an additional 2 mtpa capacity to the Karachaganak partners as part of the 2012 settlement agreement, BG Group’s entitlement will rise to 3 mtpa (60 000 bopd) while the total capacity for BG Group and the Karachaganak partners will increase to 10.4 mtpa. The CPC expansion project includes the addition of 10 pump stations in Russia and Kazakhstan, six crude oil storage tanks near Novorossiysk and a third single-point mooring at the CPC Marine Terminal.

Upstream: E&PEast Coast Marine Area (ECMA)The BG Group-operated ECMA development comprises the Dolphin gas field, located 83 kilometres off the east coast of Trinidad in Block 6(b), which commenced production in 1996, and the Dolphin Deep gas field in the adjacent Block 5(a), which started up in 2006. Both Dolphin and Dolphin Deep are contracted to supply domestic gas to the National Gas Company (NGC) and LNG exports to BG Gas Marketing (BGGM), a wholly owned BG Group subsidiary which is operated by GEMS, via Atlantic LNG Train 3 and Atlantic LNG Train 4.

The gas is produced under a Combined Development Plan for the fields in Blocks 5(a), 6(b) and E. Production is currently delivered from the Dolphin field through 13 platform wells, and the Dolphin Deep field from two sub-sea wells. The Dolphin Deep sub-sea facilities are tied back to facilities on the Dolphin platform. In 2012, the Starfish development was sanctioned. This will comprise four sub-sea wells, tied back to the Dolphin platform,

with first gas expected in the fourth quarter of 2014.

ECMA gas is delivered to NGC via a pipeline to the Poui platform where it connects to the domestic network. ECMA gas is also delivered to Atlantic LNG through a second offshore pipeline, bringing gas from the Dolphin platform to shore at the Beachfield receiving terminal. It then connects to NGC’s 76 kilometre onshore Cross Island Pipeline extending from Beachfield to Atlantic LNG at Point Fortin.

In 2005, BG Group and partner completed the Manatee-1 well in Block 6(d), which indicated gross resources of 1.8 tcf. This discovery demonstrated the extension of the Loran field from Venezuela into Block 6(d) in Trinidad and Tobago. In 2010, the governments of Trinidad and Tobago and Venezuela ratified the field-specific treaty for the cross-border Loran-Manatee field, providing a framework for advancing a field development plan by the partners.

North Coast Marine Area (NCMA)The BG Group-operated NCMA development, located 40 kilometres off the north coast of Trinidad, includes the Hibiscus, Poinsettia and Chaconia gas fields. There is a Unitisation Agreement with Petrotrin for the development of accumulations within the NCMA Unit Area. These fields are being developed in four phases to supply gas to Atlantic LNG Trains 2, 3 and 4. Phases 1 and 2 comprised the installation of the Hibiscus platform in 2001, together with a pipeline from NCMA to Atlantic LNG at Point Fortin.

The development of the Poinsettia field as part of Phase 3 included accessing the Heliconia and Bougainvillea accumulations. A pipeline connects the platform to the existing Hibiscus platform 20 kilometres away. First gas production from Poinsettia was achieved in 2009. The six development well drilling programme completed in 2010, thereby increasing NCMA deliverability to Atlantic LNG.

The NCMA 4a compression project, which will sustain existing production from the NCMA fields, was sanctioned by BG Group and partners in 2010. Construction of the compression unit commenced in 2012, with first gas achieved in June 2014.

Central Block BG Group acquired a 65% interest in, and assumed operatorship of, this block in 2004 under an exploration and production licence. Following acreage relinquishment in 2012, this onshore block now covers 27 square kilometres and includes the currently producing Carapal Ridge, Baraka and Baraka East developments.

A gas plant with a capacity of approximately 65 mmscfd was commissioned in 2007, near the existing production site at Carapal Ridge. This was de-bottlenecked to 80 mmscfd in 2010.

BG Group supplies both gas and condensate to Petrotrin, for use in its refinery at Pointe-à-Pierre, Trinidad. Gas is transported via a 12 kilometre pipeline that connects to the NGC network. BG Group also supplies export gas to Atlantic LNG Train 4. The development of the Baraka and Baraka East discoveries and compression (known as the BTIC project) was sanctioned in 2009 with first gas delivered in 2012, allowing for the extension of the gas supply contracts.

Block 5(c)In 2007, BG Group signed a farm-in agreement for Block 5(c), 94 kilometres off the east coast of Trinidad. BG Group took a 30% working interest in the PSC and assumed operatorship in 2009. In 2009, BG Group exercised its pre-emption rights under the Joint Operating Agreement to increase its stake in the block to 75%, which became effective later that year. In March 2014, BG Group purchased the remaining 25% of the block.

Each of the three wells drilled on Block 5(c) since 2007 have encountered hydrocarbons and has been successfully tested. The first well, Victory-1, was drilled 10 kilometres north-east of the Dolphin platform. The second well, Bounty-1, targeted a separate prospect, approximately four kilometres away from the Victory-1 well. Drilling and testing of the third exploration well, Endeavour-1, was completed

in 2009. Declaration of Commerciality was made in 2011. An appraisal drilling programme is proposed to commence in 2015.

Block 5(d)In 2012, BG Group (100% and operator) executed a PSC for Block 5(d), which sits adjacent to Block 5(c). An extensive seismic survey has been completed with final processed products delivered in the first quarter of 2014. The exploration potential is currently being evaluated utilising this dataset.

Upstream: E&PBG Group is partnered with EXCO Resources, Inc. (EXCO) to develop shale gas opportunities in the Haynesville Basin (east Texas and north Louisiana) and in the Appalachian Basin (Pennsylvania and West Virginia).

Haynesville shaleBG Group acquired its shale gas position via an alliance with EXCO in 2009 through which the Group:

● acquired a 50% interest in EXCO’s acreage in east Texas and north Louisiana, predominantly in the Haynesville shale gas formation, which is operated by EXCO;

● entered into a joint development agreement with EXCO to cooperate in the further development and production of shale gas in east Texas and north Louisiana; and

● acquired a 50% interest in related and complementary EXCO gas gathering and transport assets, known as TGGT.

In 2010, BG Group and EXCO jointly purchased Common Resources, L.L.C. (Common), which owned operations in Texas. Later in 2010, the partners purchased acreage from Southwestern Energy.

In March 2013, BG Group divested all its interests in the shallow, non-core, conventional producing assets and acreage in the Cotton Valley formation in east Texas and north Louisiana. In November 2013, BG Group sold its equity holding in TGGT.

In line with the Group’s strategy of focusing on value, and the continuing low US natural gas price, BG Group expects to continue to develop its Haynesville position with rig numbers being optimised based on realised gas prices.

BG Group owns acreage positions in the Haynesville and Marcellus shale plays.

Marcellus shale In 2010, BG Group entered into further joint venture (JV) arrangements with EXCO to acquire a 50% interest in companies that hold EXCO’s producing and non-producing assets in the Appalachian Basin, located primarily in Pennsylvania and West Virginia.

BG Group also acquired 50% of EXCO’s interest in approximately 5 900 shallow producing wells, many of which secure ongoing ownership of deeper Marcellus rights, and approximately 2 100 miles of gathering infrastructure serving the shallow wells. In 2011, BG Group and EXCO jointly purchased further acreage in the Marcellus area.

In line with the Group’s strategy of focusing on value, and the continuing low US natural gas price, BG Group is continuing to evaluate its drilling strategy in the Marcellus shale for 2015.

AlaskaIn 2006, BG Group signed a Participation Agreement for more than 2 million acres in the Foothills area of the Alaskan North Slope, operated by Anadarko. Drilling, completion and seismic activities were carried out in this area between 2007 and 2012. BG Group continues to evaluate its opportunities in the region.

LNG Shipping & Marketing BG Group’s LNG and gas marketing activities include the Lake Charles and Elba Island LNG import facilities. BG Group is progressing applications and development plans for export of LNG from the Lake Charles facility. These activities are managed by GEMS (see pages 34 to 36 for details).

LNG Shipping & Marketing BG Group has obtained exclusive rights to a site on Ridley Island near Prince Rupert, British Columbia for the potential location of a LNG terminal. The facility would initially be a two-train development, with the ability to add a third train if market conditions allow. Ridley Island has a natural deep water and ice-free harbour and benefits from its proximity to Asia-Pacific markets. The site is industrially zoned with rail and road access.

BG Group has signed a project development agreement with Spectra Energy to jointly develop a natural gas pipeline from north-east British Columbia to the proposed terminal. In March 2014, Spectra Energy submitted an Environmental Assessment Certificate Application to the British Columbia Environmental Assessment Office for the Westcoast Connector Gas Transmission Project.

In March 2014, BG Group received the final licence it requires from the National Energy Board to allow exports of approximately 25 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of LNG for 25 years from the date of first export.

BG Group is in discussion with potential partners in the Prince Rupert project and does not plan to take more than 50% interest in the project.

BG Group is evaluating a potential LNG project at Prince Rupert in British Columbia.

The Bongkot North development consists of a central complex for gas gathering, processing, export and worker accommodation; a condensate floating storage and offloading (FSO) vessel; 31 remote wellhead platforms; and over 400 development wells. Production commenced in 1993 and gross daily gas production has risen and been sustained at more than 600 mmscfd through a phased programme of field development.

Phase 3K, consisting of two remote wellhead platforms and 16 wells, came onstream in August 2013. Phase 3L, consisting of two remote wellhead platforms and 18 wells, came onstream in June 2014, while Phase 3M is expected onstream in 2015 and Phase 3N is underway.

BG Group and its partners continue to explore further opportunities to extend the Bongkot North production plateau. Programmes of well intervention, infill drilling and booster compression are being implemented to improve hydrocarbon recovery and an active programme of exploration drilling is underway to discover reserves for further incremental phases of development.

Bongkot South is located some 70 kilometres to the south of Bongkot North and involves the development of further reserves through new standalone facilities with processing capacity of 350 mmscfd and 15 000 barrels of condensate per day. Production commenced in 2012 and at plateau, Bongkot South delivers some 14 000 boed net to BG Group. Phase 4B of Bongkot South, consisting of four further wellhead platforms, came onstream in early 2014. Bongkot South Phase 4C is underway and consists of three wellhead platforms with first gas expected in 2015. Gas from the project is exported via a new-build spur line connected to existing gas export infrastructure, while condensate is exported to the FSO vessel at Bongkot North. Production is sold to PTT Public Company.

Blocks 7, 8 and 9BG Group is the operator of Blocks 7, 8 and 9 in the Gulf of Thailand (BG Group 66.67%), in an area subject to overlapping claims by Thailand and Cambodia. Activity in these blocks is suspended until these claims are resolved. BG Group also has an Overriding Royalty Agreement covering production from Block 9a.

Upstream: E&PBongkotBG Group has a 22.22% interest in the Bongkot field in the Gulf of Thailand. The field is operated by PTT Exploration and Production (PTTEP). In 2012, the Bongkot Concession passed the milestone of producing more than 1 bcf of sales gas per day from the Bongkot North and Bongkot South fields combined.

BG Group is the country’s largest gas producer, supplying more than 60% of Tunisia’s domestic gas production through the Miskar and Hasdrubal operations.

New information ● Well intervention campaigns on Miskar and Hasdrubal fields

Key dates1989 Tenneco assets acquired1996 Miskar field first production2009 Hasdrubal field first production2011 LPG pipelines start-up

Offshore compression was commissioned in 2005 to maintain the production plateau of the field. Six infill wells were drilled between 2007 and 2010. There is currently an ongoing workover campaign, comprising well re-perforations and well re-fracturing operations. As a result, there are 18 producing wells.

A 60 kilometre condensate pipeline was completed in 2007 to transport Miskar condensate from Hannibal to La Skhira storage terminal. The condensate is mainly exported to the international market.

Hasdrubal Hasdrubal came onstream in 2009, with gas being sold to STEG on a long-term contract, while condensate and LPG are sold to both international and local markets.

The Hasdrubal onshore gas processing facility (BG Group 50%, Entreprise Tunisienne d’Activités Pétrolières (ETAP) 50%) and LPG production facility (BG Group 100%) have been built adjacent to the Hannibal plant.

Production is delivered from three gas wells through an unmanned offshore platform to dedicated offtake facilities. Condensate from Hasdrubal is transported to La Skhira storage terminal through the Hannibal condensate pipeline. The condensate is mainly exported and jointly sold with Miskar condensate to the international market. The LPG storage terminal has been constructed in Gabès to receive and deliver butane for sale locally to Société Tunisienne des Industries de Raffinage (STIR) and propane for export to the international Med LPG market. Two 6-inch, 130 kilometre parallel pipelines commissioned in 2011 are used to deliver LPG to the terminal from Hasdrubal.

Amilcar permitBG Group is operator and joint permit holder with ETAP, the Tunisian state-owned company, of the 1 016 square kilometre Amilcar exploration permit, in the Gulf of Gabès. Approval has been granted in principle for an extension to December 2014, pending decree publication.

Upstream: E&PMiskarGas from the Miskar field is processed at the BG Group-operated Hannibal plant and sold into the Tunisian gas system. BG Group has a long-term gas sales contract with the Tunisian state electricity and gas company, Société Tunisienne de l’Electricité et du Gaz (STEG).

Block 1 Six discoveries have been made in Block 1 since 2010. All are within 100 kilometres of the shore and in water depths of 900 to 1 600 metres. Four of these are Tertiary reservoirs (Chaza, Jodari, Jodari North and Mkizi) and two are Cretaceous (Mzia and Taachui). Mzia (4.7 tcf total gross resource) and Jodari (4 tcf total gross resource) are both classified as giant discoveries. Four DSTs have been conducted on Jodari, Mzia (two DSTs) and Taachui.

Block 3 In 2012, the joint venture successfully drilled the Papa discovery well into the deeper Cretaceous reservoir. The well is around 100 kilometres offshore Tanzania in water depth of approximately 2 180 metres.

Block 4 In 2010, two gas discoveries were made at Pweza and Chewa. In 2013, another gas discovery was made with the Ngisi well, and a DST on the Pweza well was conducted.

Upstream: E&PIn 2010, BG Group farmed in to Blocks 1, 3 and 4 offshore southern Tanzania taking 60% equity in each, assuming operatorship in 2011. The blocks cover around 20 850 square kilometres of the Mafia Deep Offshore Basin and the northern part of the Rovuma Basin.

Since entering Tanzania, the joint venture has acquired over 13 000 square kilometres of 3D seismic data, and has had 15 consecutive drilling successes, including 10 gas discoveries and five appraisal wells. The joint venture has also conducted five drill stem tests (DSTs). This exploration and appraisal activity has led to estimates of total gross resources of around 15 tcf, with further exploration upside. A contract for the upstream pre-FEED was awarded in May 2014.

Upstream: LiquefactionIn April 2014, the partners in Blocks 1, 3 and 4 and the partners in Block 2 signed a Heads of Agreement (HoA) setting out how the companies will collaborate on development of a potential joint LNG project. Under the agreement, BG Group will be the lead developer during the pre-FEED phase. A contract for the LNG plant pre-FEED was awarded in August 2014.

In 2014, BG Group was awarded four blocks of frontier acreage in Myanmar.

Upstream: E&PIn March 2014, BG Group was awarded, subject to finalisation of the Production Sharing Contracts, exploration acreage in the Bay of Bengal, offshore western Myanmar, as part of the government’s 2013 offshore bid round. Total gross acreage awarded to BG Group and partners was more than 34 350 square kilometres in water depths of up to 2 600 metres.

The Group was awarded four blocks: ● AD-2 with 55% equity and operatorship (Woodside Energy 45%); ● A-4 with 45% equity and operatorship (Woodside Energy 45%, Myanmar Petroleum Exploration and Production (MPEP) 10%);

● AD-5 with 45% equity (Woodside Energy 55% and operator); and ● A-7 with 45% equity (Woodside Energy 45% and operator, MPEP 10%).

BG Group and its partners have committed to a 3D seismic acquisition programme in each block, which is expected to begin in 2015 following an Environmental and Social Impact Assessment, with plans beyond that for exploration drilling.

LNG Shipping & MarketingIn April 2014, BG Group moved the centre of its global LNG and oil marketing business to Singapore, reflecting the long-term importance of Asian energy markets. This move builds on the Group’s presence in the country, having been appointed by the Energy Market Authority (EMA) in 2008 as the sole aggregator of Singapore’s first 3.0 mtpa of LNG demand for up to 20 years, and where the Group’s regional head office for its South and East Asia operations has been for more than 15 years.

The Aggregator Agreement was signed in 2009. Beginning in 2010, BG Group signed gas sales contracts with a variety of customers, including six large scale power generation companies. The total LNG contracted under this agreement by the end of July 2014 was approximately 2.7 mtpa, with the Group having delivered a total of 30 cargoes since the first commercial delivery to the LNG terminal on Jurong Island in May 2013. The aggregator is also required to develop trading activity and market short-term and spot gas sales agreements to the Singapore market.

BG Group sources LNG supply for Singapore from its large, growing and diversified flexible portfolio. It is envisaged that BG Group’s QCLNG project in Australia will serve as one of the sources of supply.

BG Group’s global centre for LNG and oil marketing is located in Singapore. The Group is the supplier of the first 3.0 mtpa of long-term LNG demand in Singapore through its aggregator position.

Global Energy Marketing and Shipping (GEMS) develops and implements BG Group’s strategy for the marketing and optimisation of all commodity streams, connecting diversified and flexible supplies to extensive customer networks.

GEMSGEMS activities cover global liquefied natural gas (LNG) marketing, gas marketing, oil marketing and shipping. In April 2014, BG Group moved the centre of its global LNG and oil marketing business to Singapore from its head office in the UK, reflecting the long-term importance of Asian energy markets (see page 32 for more details).

LNG supplyBG Group pursues a number of opportunities to create a diversified supply portfolio. These include buying LNG from third parties as well as from BG Group equity LNG projects in Egypt and Trinidad and Tobago currently, and Queensland Curtis LNG (QCLNG) in Australia from the fourth quarter of 2014.

In 2004, BG Group purchased its first long-term LNG cargo of equity gas from Atlantic LNG Trains 2 and 3 under a 20 year contract. This was followed in 2005 with the first purchases of equity gas from Egyptian LNG

In 2010, BG Group signed a sales contract with China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) which sets out the basis on which CNOOC will purchase 3.6 mtpa of LNG for a period of 20 years from 2014 from the Group’s portfolio, including QCLNG. Deliveries under this contract have commenced. Further, in 2013, BG Group committed to supply an additional 5 mtpa of LNG to CNOOC beginning in 2015 and sourced from the Group’s global portfolio (see page 10 for more details). BG Group’s total committed LNG sales to CNOOC will be 8.6 mtpa, making the Group the largest supplier of LNG to the world’s fastest-growing energy market.

In 2011, BG Group contracted to supply Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd. (Tokyo Gas) with 1.2 mtpa of LNG for 20 years from 2015. Tokyo Gas will be supplied with LNG from the Group’s portfolio, including QCLNG (see page 10 for more details).

BG Group also signed a sales contract with Chubu Electric Power Co., Inc. (Chubu Electric) for the long-term supply of LNG. Under the agreement, Chubu Electric will purchase up to 122 cargoes over 21 years, starting in 2014. Chubu Electric will be supplied from the Group’s portfolio, including QCLNG.

In 2013, BG Group signed a sales contract for the long-term supply of LNG to Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation Limited (GSPC) in India. BG Group will initially supply 1.25 mtpa of LNG beginning in 2015 for up to 20 years, potentially increasing to 2.5 mtpa after two years. GSPC will be supplied from the Group’s portfolio.

BG Group currently expects very limited cargoes to be lifted from Egyptian LNG for the foreseeable future, with Force Majeure in place on the LNG purchase agreements in Egypt (see page 11 for more details).

BG Group’s LNG supply growth opportunity set includes projects at Lake Charles (USA), Prince Rupert (Canada) and Tanzania.

In 2011, the US Department of Energy granted authorisation for LNG export from the Lake Charles terminal to free trade agreement (FTA) countries. In August 2013, authorisation for the export of up to 15 mtpa of LNG to non-FTA countries was received.

In March 2014, subsidiaries of Energy Transfer filed an application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) seeking authorisation for the siting, construction, ownership and operation of the proposed Lake Charles LNG export project. Pending receipt of all necessary approvals and a final investment decision, expected in 2015, construction could then start shortly afterwards, with first LNG exports anticipated in 2019. Energy Transfer will own and finance the proposed facility and BG Group will manage construction and operate the proposed facility, while being responsible for the offtake.

More information on the Group’s potential growth projects in Canada and Tanzania can be found on their country pages, 23 and 28 respectively.

Further details of LNG supply can be found on page 48 within the Statistical Supplement.

LNG marketing GEMS is engaged in marketing LNG to buyers throughout the world, on a long, medium and short-term basis. BG Group’s LNG business has been built around its portfolio of diversified and flexible LNG supplies that are sold globally

to an extensive customer network. In addition to marketing its own contracted portfolio of volumes, the Group also buys and sells spot LNG cargoes. BG Group has made LNG sales to more than 60 customers around the globe, in 26 of the current 27 LNG importing countries, having also bought LNG from 15 of the 19 LNG producing countries.

The Group has a long-term contract to supply the Quintero LNG terminal in Chile with up to 3.0 mtpa until 2030.

In 2008, BG Group was selected by the Energy Market Authority (EMA) of Singapore to source and supply the Singapore market on an exclusive basis with up to 3.0 mtpa of LNG for up to 20 years from the Group’s portfolio. The Singapore receiving terminal commenced commercial operations in May 2013, and as at 31 July 2014, the Group had delivered a total of 30 cargoes.

As the Group’s LNG supply increases with the start-up of the QCLNG and Sabine Pass projects, the Group has entered into a number of additional long-term sales contracts.

In addition to these long-term sales contracts, BG Group has regasification capacity at the Lake Charles and Elba Island terminals in the USA, and the Dragon LNG terminal in the UK. The Group uses this terminal capacity when prices are attractive. Given the strong demand in Asia and South America in particular, and the impact of increasing US shale gas production, GEMS has reduced LNG imports into these markets freeing valuable cargoes for diversion to Asia and South America.

Gas marketingGEMS undertakes gas marketing in North America, Europe, Australia and Singapore. Sales are made under various short, medium and long-term arrangements. BG Group’s customers include leading gas and electric utilities, as well as industrial companies and wholesale gas merchants.

In North America, BG Group has a gas marketing business of around 3.4 bcfd and controls pipeline capacity of more than 3.9 bcfd. It markets the Group’s own shale gas as well as imported LNG, along with third-party gas supplies, to multiple intermediary and end-use customers via the US and Canadian natural gas pipeline infrastructure. In addition to the LNG storage facilities at Lake Charles and Elba Island, BG Group will from time to time contract for natural gas storage capacity on a seasonal and/or medium to long-term basis to facilitate its operational and commercial requirements.

In the UK, BG Group sells gas on a wholesale basis principally at the UK National Balancing Point (NBP) under contracts with varying durations. This includes the Group’s production of 0.2 bcfd of gas from the UK and Norwegian Continental Shelf, which in 2013 was the equivalent of approximately 3% of UK gas demand. BG Group is an active participant in the capacity auctions held by National Grid and in the on-the-day commodity market and other electronic trading systems that help shippers balance their supply and demand. BG Group owns both import and export capacity in the Interconnector pipeline (UK to mainland Europe), which it uses to ship gas to take advantage of market price differentials and for sub-lets to third parties.

In Australia, BG Group has a gas and power marketing business that includes both domestic gas sales and the dispatch of electricity from Condamine power station into the National Electricity Market. Domestic gas sales range from short to long-term covering both firm and flexible volumes.

In Singapore, BG Group currently has finalised contracts for the supply of around 2.7 mtpa of LNG out of its franchise 3.0 mtpa agreement. The Group has signed gas sales contracts with a variety of customers in Singapore, including six large scale power generation companies.

Oil marketingGEMS markets oil production from BG Group’s assets in the North Sea, Kazakhstan and Brazil. With the planned ramp up in production from the Group’s interests in the Santos Basin in Brazil, more than 300 Suezmax cargoes (or 300 mmbbls) of crude oil over the next five years are expected to be lifted from these assets alone.

In 2011, BG Group took delivery of its first chartered dynamically positioned oil shuttle tanker, the Windsor Knutsen, to shuttle crude oil to markets from the floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) units in the Santos Basin, offshore Brazil. This vessel was chartered by BG Group until the end of July 2014. Further in 2011, the Group signed 10 year

time charters for four new-build oil shuttle tankers for deployment in the Santos Basin. The Samba Spirit, the Lambada Spirit and the Bossa Nova Spirit arrived in Brazil in 2013, with the Sertanejo Spirit arriving in early 2014. All four vessels are now in operation.

As production grows, the Group will ensure it has sufficient shipping capacity to meet lifting requirements through a variety of sources, which could include additional short, medium and long-term chartered vessels.

LNG ShippingBG Group has a long history in LNG shipping, having been involved in the development of both the prototype and the industry’s first working LNG carriers.

The Group secures and controls a competitive, flexible and safe LNG shipping portfolio with sufficient capacity to meet expected LNG transportation requirements and capture business opportunities. The fleet is predominantly a combination of short, medium and long-term charters. This flexible, strategic approach allows BG Group to seize new opportunities by managing long-range delivery logistics, with the Group regularly diverting cargoes from the Atlantic Basin to the Pacific Basin.

In 2010, BG Group took delivery of four new generation, energy-efficient LNG carriers. The ships have a capacity of 170 000 cubic metres and are among the first carriers in the world to integrate onboard reliquefaction with the propulsion system, allowing natural gas boil-off to be reliquefied and returned to cargo tanks.

As part of the LNG sales agreements signed with CNOOC in 2010 and 2013, BG Group and CNOOC tendered for the design and construction of four LNG vessels. In June 2014, BG Group divested its share of the vessels to Teekay LNG Operating LLC. The vessels, which will be constructed at the Hudong-Zhonghua shipyard in China, will be chartered into the Group’s portfolio for 20 years.

Explanatory note for US investors relating to gas and oil reserves and resourcesOn 20 December 2007, BG Group ceased to be a United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) registered company and the Group’s SEC reporting obligations also ceased with effect from that date. BG Group continued voluntarily to use the SEC definition of proved reserves, and from 2009 of probable reserves, to report proved gas and oil reserves and disclose certain unaudited supplementary information until 2013. BG Group has decided, from the year ended 31 December 2013 onwards, to adopt the reserves definitions and guidelines consistent with the internationally recognised Petroleum Resources Management System published by the Society of Petroleum Engineers, American Association of Petroleum Geologists, World Petroleum Council and the Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers, known as the SPE PRMS, in accordance with recommendations issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) and to achieve greater consistency across its reporting of reserves and resources.

BG Group has used gas and crude oil price forecasts that are based on its reference conditions to determine reserves estimates for the year ended 31 December 2013. This report also contains additional information about other BG Group gas and oil reserves and resources that would not be permitted in SEC filings.

Reserves (proved and probable) are measured in accordance with SPE PRMS definitions and guidelines and, in this transition year, are voluntarily shown together with the estimates under the SEC definitions, which formed the basis for measurement previously used by the Group.

For further details of BG Group’s proved reserves as at 31 December 2013, and related supplemental gas and oil information, see Supplementary information – gas and oil, included on page 134 of the 2013 BG Group ARA. For an explanation of terms used in connection with such additional reserves and resources information, refer to page 4.
