·     Entered into an MOU for a technical training partnership with PETRONAS to develop competency-based training for operations and maintenance personnel in Malaysia

·     Good progress on Ticleni in Romania, improving production through optimising pump settings, working over wells and bringing back on-stream the first five of many shut-in wells

·     Agreed to invest up to a further US$75 million in Seven Energy taking our interest up to 24.5%(9)

·     Selected bidder on Magallanes and Santuario Production Enhancement Contracts in Mexico

 

Energy Developments

·     Secured first Risk Service Contract (RSC) in Malaysia, for development of the Berantai field

·     Acquired FPF3 (formerly the Jasmine Venture), deployed on the Jasmine field in the Gulf of Thailand and leased to Pearl Energy, a subsidiary of Mubadala, and now operated by Offshore Engineering & Operations

·     Pre-invested in field infrastructure in readiness for future developments, including the acquisition of FPF4 (formerly the Cossack Pioneer)

·     Cendor phase 2 in Block PM304, offshore Malaysia, progressing to schedule and entered into an MOU with PETRONAS to accelerate the third phase of Block PM304, West Desaru



OUTLOOK

 

We are confident that we can continue the good progress that we have achieved in Engineering & Construction in the year to date. With high levels of backlog, we have outstanding revenue visibility which should ensure that we report strong growth in our full year revenues and we expect full year net margins to be in line with our medium-term guidance at around 11%.

 

While Offshore Engineering & Operations activity levels and revenues are expected to continue at record levels, net profit is expected to be lower in the second half of the year, as the first half benefited from significant progress on the SEPAT development and a provision release following completion of a long-term maintenance services contract. Net margins for the full year are expected to be substantially higher than in the prior year.

 

The second half performance of the Engineering, Training Services and Production Solutions reporting segment is expected to be broadly in line with the first half of the year, albeit with a greater contribution from Production Solutions, as we expect a general improvement in our consultancy and technology businesses and a positive contribution from the Ticleni Production Enhancement Contract.

 

In Energy Developments, our operational assets are expected to continue to perform broadly in line with the first half, with the exception of the Ohanet RSC, which ends, as expected, in October. On the Berantai field development, we expect the FPSO Berantai to mobilise to the field in early 2012, with first gas from the field expected shortly thereafter.

 

With a strong financial position, a differentiated and competitive offering and a proven track record in project execution, we are confident that we will continue to deliver superior value for our customers and sector-leading returns for our shareholders.

 


 

GROUP REORGANISATION

 

Following on from the creation of the Integrated Energy Services division announced in June, with effect from 1 January 2012, Marwan Chedid, currently Managing Director of Engineering & Construction Ventures, will become Chief Executive of the Engineering, Construction, Operations & Maintenance (ECOM) division, and will report to Ayman Asfari, Group Chief Executive. The ECOM division will comprise the following three business units:

·     Onshore Engineering & Construction: formed by bringing together the existing Engineering & Construction and Engineering & Construction Ventures business units

·     Offshore Projects & Operations (currently known as Offshore Engineering & Operations)

·     Engineering & Consulting Services (currently known as Engineering Services)

 

We also note, in accordance with paragraph LR 9.6.11R(3) of the Listing Rules of the UK Listing Authority, that with effect from 1 January 2012, Maroun Semaan will be appointed President, having been Group Chief Operating Officer since 1 January 2009. Maroun will lead the development of a number of major strategic initiatives and will act as executive sponsor for programmes in the areas of business and strategic relationship development, cost optimisation, technical improvement and organisational capability. Maroun's role on the Petrofac Limited Board and executive management committees will remain unchanged.

 

 

 

Notes

 

(1)       The following restatements were made in the 2010 comparatives:

•     the directors have re-considered the nature of the contractual commitments to a joint venture on a lump sum construction contract in the Engineering & Construction reporting segment and as a result, US$13,426,000 included in non-controlling interests in the statement of financial position at 1 January 2010 was reclassified to trade and other payables (US$9,226,000) and other reserves (US$4,200,000). In addition, US$3,662,000 of profit for the period in the 2010 income statement and US$5,381,000 shown within other comprehensive income as attributable to non-controlling interests has been shown as attributable to Petrofac. US$4,811,000 in the statement of financial position has been reclassified as trade and other payables

•     a variation order on a contract in the Engineering & Construction reporting segment was agreed in the first half of 2010 but was not reflected in the interim results, leading to an understatement in revenue (US$35,200,000), cost of sales (US$3,170,000) and income tax expense (US$5,977,000).  Furthermore, the group's income tax expense was adjusted by US$1,436,000 to reflect the impact of this adjustment on the interim group tax charge

 

(2)        Net profit for the period attributable to Petrofac Limited shareholders.

 

(3)      Excluding the gain on the EnQuest demerger in April 2010.

 

(4)        The group reports its financial results in US dollars and, accordingly, will declare any dividends in US dollars together with a Sterling equivalent. Unless shareholders have made valid elections to the contrary, they will receive any dividends payable in Sterling. Conversion of the 2011 interim dividend from US dollars into Sterling is based upon an exchange rate of US$1.6510:£1, being the Bank of England Sterling spot rate as at midday on 19 August 2011.

 

(5)         Backlog consists of the estimated revenue attributable to the uncompleted portion of lump-sum engineering, procurement and construction contracts and variation orders plus, with regard to engineering services and facilities management contracts, the estimated revenue attributable to the lesser of the remaining term of the contract and, in the case of life-of-field facilities management contracts, five years.  The group uses this key performance indicator as a measure of the visibility of future earnings.  Backlog is not an audited measure.

 

(6)         Like-for-like net profit growth excludes the gain of US$124.9 million on the EnQuest demerger and the trading net profit from Energy Developments' demerged assets of US$2.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2010.

 

(7)         The current market expectations for Petrofac's net profit for the year ending 31 December 2011 are based on forecasts provided to Petrofac by 21 equity analysts since publication of the group's 2010 Final Results in March 2011. The average of those forecasts is US$514 million. 

 

(8)         Order intake comprises new contracts awarded, growth in scope of existing contracts and the rolling increment attributable to contracts which extend beyond five years.  Order intake is not an audited measure.

 

(9)         On a fully diluted basis assuming the full conversion of all convertible securities and exercise of all outstanding warrants and options.

The attached is an extract from the group's interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2011.

 

 

Results

We are pleased to report that the group has had a successful first half of 2011, with an order intake of US$2.2 billion, including new awards in Algeria, Malaysia and Iraq. We continue to deliver good operational performance across our portfolio of projects and we expect to deliver like-for-like net profit growth in 2011 of at least 15% and in-line with current market expectations.

 

In the six months ended 30 June 2011, revenue increased by 25.2% to US$2,711.1 million (2010 restated: US$2,165.8 million) due to high activity levels following recent awards, particularly in the Engineering & Construction and Offshore Engineering & Operations reporting segments.

 

Net profit attributable to Petrofac Limited shareholders, excluding the gain on the EnQuest demerger in the corresponding period in 2010, increased 6.6% to US$246.3 million (2010 restated3: US$231.0 million). The increase in net profit was lower than the increase in revenue predominantly as a result of the timing of profit recognition. We have recognised revenue on a number of early stage projects, particularly in Engineering & Construction, where we have not yet reached the progress threshold for recognising profit. In addition, the net margin in the first half of 2010 benefited from the first-time recognition of profit on a number of Engineering & Construction contracts awarded in 2009.

 

EBITDA, excluding the gain on the EnQuest demerger, was lower at US$332.0 million (2010 restated: US$349.7 million) following the demerger of the high EBITDA margin Don assets in April 2010.

 

The group's net cash increased to US$1,768.0 million over the six months to 30 June 2011 (31 December 2010: US$975.3 million) as the net result of:

·      operating profits before working capital and other non-current changes of US$361 million

·      net working capital inflows of US$906 million, including an increase in advances received from customers of US$976 million (including receipt of an advance payment in January 2011 in relation to the South Yoloten project in Turkmenistan) and a reduction in work in progress of US$247 million

·      investing activities of US$218 million, including investment of a further US$50 million (of an agreed US$75 million) in Seven Energy (see note 11 for details), US$99 million for the purchase and upgrade of three floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels (see note 9 for details: note 9 includes an accrual for US$37 million in addition to the cash outflow) and US$16 million for deferred consideration in relation to an acquisition

·      financing activities, in particular, payment of the 2010 final dividend of US$101 million and financing the purchase of treasury shares for US$47 million for the purpose of making awards under the group's share schemes

·      taxes paid of US$98 million

1Like-for-like net profit growth excludes the gain of US$124.9 million on the EnQuest demerger and the trading net profit from Energy Developments’ demerged assets of US$2.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2010.
2The current market expectations for Petrofac’s net profit for the year ending 31 December 2011 are based on forecasts provided to Petrofac by 21 equity analysts since publication of the group’s 2010 Final Results in March 2011. The average of those forecasts is US$514 million.

3See note 2 to the financial statements for details of the restatement. Prior to restatement, revenue and net profit for the six months ended 30 June 2010 (on the same basis as above) were US$2,130.6 million and US$206.3 million, respectively. 

 

 

The tax charge for the six months ended 30 June 2011 of US$53.1 million (2010 restated: US$61.2 million) represents an effective tax rate, excluding the gain from the EnQuest demerger, of 17.7% (six months ended 30 June 2010 restated: 21.0%; year ended 31 December 2010: 20.3%). The reduction in the group's effective tax rate is largely as a result of differences in the timing of profit recognition on Engineering & Construction contracts between the first and second half of 2011. The effective tax rate for the group for the year to 31 December 2011 is expected to be 21.7%.

 

Diluted earnings per share, excluding the gain on the EnQuest demerger, for the six months ended 30 June 2011 increased by 6.7% to 71.84 cents per share (2010 restated: 67.31 cents per share) in line with the growth in net profit.

 

The group's combined backlog was US$11.4 billion at 30 June 2011 (31 December 2010: US$11.7 billion), maintaining our outstanding revenue visibility for the remainder of 2011 and beyond.

 

At 30 June 2011, the group had more than 14,600 employees (including long-term contractors), compared to around 13,900 at 31 December 2010. An increase in headcount in Engineering & Construction and Engineering Services to support high levels of activity more than offset a net reduction in Offshore Engineering & Operations following completion of a long-term maintenance services contract.

 

 

Dividend

The Board has declared an interim dividend of 17.40 cents per share (2010: 13.80 cents), an increase of 26.1%, which will be paid on 21 October 2011 to eligible shareholders on the register at 23 September 2011. Shareholders who have not elected to receive dividends in US dollars will receive a Sterling equivalent of 10.54 pence per share. The Board will set the total dividends payable for the year to 31 December 2011 according to the group's earnings and expects to distribute approximately 35% of full year post tax profits by way of dividend, in accordance with the group's dividend policy.

Engineering & Construction

The Engineering & Construction reporting segment includes the group's Engineering & Construction business unit and Engineering & Construction Ventures, which was established to replicate the success of the Engineering & Construction business in new markets, such as Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia and Turkmenistan. Engineering & Construction undertakes engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) projects predominantly on a lump-sum basis, with a typical duration of two to four years, and is focused on markets in the Middle East and Africa and the Commonwealth of Independent States, particularly the Caspian region.

 

We have continued our good operational performance across our portfolio of projects over the first half of the year, including the completion of the Jihar gas plant in Syria and the In Salah Gas compression facilities and power generation in Algeria. We have made substantial progress on the Asab field development and the GASCO natural gas liquids train in Abu Dhabi, the El Merk central processing facility in Algeria, the gas sweetening facilities for Qatar Petroleum and the fuel gas and gas oil pipelines project in Kuwait. In Malaysia, we remain on course to deliver first oil around the end of the year on the SEPAT development for PETRONAS. We are making good progress on the South Yoloten development, in Turkmenistan, having substantially completed construction of the temporary facilities and early works and placed the majority of orders for procurement items.

 

New awards

 

In Salah Gas southern fields, Algeria

In January 2011, we were awarded a US$1.2 billion lump-sum EPC contract by In Salah Gas, an association between Sonatrach, BP and Statoil, to develop southern fields in the In Salah development. The 50-month project, to be completed in phases, will support the maintenance of plateau gas production rates of 9 billion cubic metres per annum beyond 2013. As noted above, we recently completed the compression facilities and power generation project for the same customer with success, and believe this new award reflects our dedication to this strategically important market where we maintain excellent relationships with both our customers and local construction partners.

 

Majnoon early production facility, Iraq

In March 2011, we announced the award of our first contract in Iraq, a US$240 million engineering, procurement and construction management project with Shell. The Majnoon field in southern Iraq is one of Iraq's largest developments and we are delighted to be working with Shell to assist them with unlocking the field's potential. We are providing engineering, procurement, fabrication and construction management services for the development of a new early production system comprising two trains each with capacity for 50,000 barrels of oil per day, along with upgrading of existing brownfield facilities. Work on the project began in mid-2010 and is expected to complete during the fourth quarter of 2012.

 

Results

Revenue for the first half of the year increased by 17.3% to US$1,903.7 million (2010 restated: US$1,622.7 million), reflecting a substantial increase in activity levels, particularly on the Asab field development in Abu Dhabi and the second phase of the South Yoloten project in Turkmenistan.

 

Net profit was US$205.9 million (2010 restated: US$206.5 million), representing a net margin of 10.8% (2010 restated: 12.7%). The lower net margin reflects the dilutive effects of the recognition of revenue on some early stage contracts, particularly the South Yoloten project, where we have not yet reached the progress threshold for recognising profit. In addition, the net margin in the first half of 2010 benefited from the first-time recognition of profit on a number of contracts awarded in 2009.

 

During the first half, Engineering & Construction headcount increased from 5,400 to 6,200, reflecting the increase in activity levels. In addition, our engineering offices in Mumbai, Chennai and Delhi are reported within our Engineering, Training Services and Productions Solutions reporting segment, but principally support our Engineering & Construction activities. Including these offices, our Engineering & Construction headcount stood at 7,800 at 30 June 2011 (December 2010: 7,000).

 

At 30 June 2011, the Engineering & Construction backlog stood at US$8.7 billion (31 December 2010: US$9.0 billion), maintaining our outstanding revenue visibility for the remainder of 2011 and beyond.

 

 

 

Offshore Engineering & Operations

Offshore Engineering & Operations provides engineering and construction services at all stages of greenfield and brownfield offshore projects. In addition, through the provision of operations management services, we deliver production and maintenance support and extend field life. Offshore Engineering & Operations' activities are primarily in the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS) and are predominantly provided on a reimbursable basis, but often with incentive income linked to the successful delivery of performance targets. Many of our production and maintenance contracts are long-term (typically three to five years) and in the case of the provision of Duty Holder services are generally open-ended. Increasingly, we are looking to deliver our engineering and construction services on a lump-sum basis, with the Laggan Tormore gas plant on Shetland, which was awarded in October last year, being the first major predominantly lump-sum project undertaken by Offshore Engineering & Operations.

 

We have secured a number of contract extensions and new awards in recent months, including, more recently, a contract to provide maintenance services on the Rumaila oilfield in Iraq and an operations contract for the FPF3 FPSO (formerly the Jasmine Venture) in Thailand (see Energy Developments section below). We are experiencing high activity levels across the business, including significant activity on the SEPAT development and upgrade and life extension works on the FPSO Berantai (formerly the East Fortune) in Malaysia (both projects are being undertaken jointly with Engineering & Construction). We have made good progress on the awards secured in the second half of 2010, including the Duty Holder contract for the Sajaa gas plant in the UAE and the Laggan Tormore gas plant on Shetland.

 

 

Results

Reported revenue for the period increased by 77.6% to US$581.0 million (2010: US$327.2 million) and revenue excluding 'pass-through' revenue increased by 98.3% to US$483.4 million (2010: US$243.8 million), reflecting high activity levels across the business, particularly on the SEPAT development and the FPSO Berantai in Malaysia, the Sajaa gas plant Duty Holder contract in Sharjah, the Laggan Tormore gas plant on Shetland and the Apache engineering and construction contract in the UKCS. Around two-thirds of Offshore Engineering & Operations' revenue was generated in the UKCS and those revenues are generally denominated in Sterling. The average US dollar to Sterling exchange rate for the first half of 2011 was around 7% higher than the corresponding period in 2010, which made a marginal contribution to the reported revenue growth.

At 30 June 2011, headcount stood at 4,200 (December 2010: 4,400) as the increase in headcount due to new projects was more than offset by the completion of the long-term maintenance services contract.

 

Offshore Engineering & Operations backlog remained steady over the period at US$2.4 billion (31 December 2010: US$2.4 billion).

2Pass-through revenue refers to the revenue recognised from low or zero margin third-party procurement services provided to customers. 



Engineering, Training Services and Production Solutions

The Engineering Services, Training Services and Production Solutions business units are reported together within this segment. Engineering Services and Training Services provide services predominantly on a reimbursable basis. Production Solutions offers customers access to a wide range of services to help them improve production, profitability, operational efficiency, asset integrity and the recovery of marginal reserves. In addition to providing these specialist services on a stand-alone basis, we provide integrated solutions for resource holders, such as on the Ticleni Production Enhancement Contract (PEC) for Petrom in Romania.

 

Engineering Services continues to support front end engineering and design (FEED) work and early engineering on projects across the group, predominantly in Engineering & Construction and Energy Developments. We have recently opened a third Indian office, in Delhi, to help support the growth in activity levels across the group. We expect the Delhi office to grow to around 100 by the end of the year, which would take the total complement of our Indian engineering offices to around 1,800.

 

In Training Services, year to date delegate numbers have grown strongly compared to the same period in 2010. The first half of the year saw the first graduates from our recently opened training facility at Hassi Messaoud in Algeria. Supporting the development of local workforces remains a core part of our strategy and we are actively considering establishing training centres in other important markets for the group, including Iraq and Turkmenistan, and aim to develop strategic partnerships with resource holders in our key markets. In July, we signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with PETRONAS to collaborate in the area of competency development, capability building and education activities. This will involve a technical training partnership with Institut Teknologi Petroleum PETRONAS (INSTEP) to develop competency-based training for operations and maintenance personnel, as well as lecture and seminar programmes with the Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS.

 

In Production Solutions, we have made good progress to date on the Ticleni PEC, not only arresting the decline, but improving production through optimising pump settings, working over wells and, more recently, bringing back on-stream the first five of many shut-in wells. We have recently commenced a pilot water flood programme, the results of which are expected around the end of the year. In Nigeria, we continue to assist Seven Energy with development of their oil & gas assets and at 30 June 2011, 70% of our warrants had vested after reaching agreed milestones. We recently agreed to increase our interest in the company up to 24.5% and, consequently, we are now accounting for Seven Energy as an associate (see note 11 to the financial statements for more detail). In August, we were declared selected bidder for two PECs in Mexico for the Magallanes and Santuario blocks. We expect to sign the contracts, which will run for 25 years, on 18 October 2011 and we will take responsibility for field operations after an initial three month transition period.

 

 

Results

Reported revenue for the period increased 19.8% to US$193.5 million (2010: US$161.5 million) and revenue excluding 'pass-through' revenue increased 20.1% to US$179.9 million (2010: US$149.8 million), due to an increase in activity in Engineering Services in support of Engineering & Construction and Energy Developments projects, particularly Berantai in Malaysia, and strong growth in the number of delegates in Training Services.

 

Net profit was broadly unchanged at US$13.1 million (2010: US$13.0 million), with an increase in net profit in Engineering Services and Training Services due to higher activity levels, largely offset by a reduction in profit in Production Solutions, where profit in relation to the vesting of Seven Energy warrants was more than offset by the change in scope of the Dubai Petroleum contract which took effect in October 2010 and early mobilisation and set-up costs on the Ticleni PEC in Romania.

 

At 30 June 2011, headcount had increased to 3,600 (31 December 2010: 3,400), predominantly due to growth in our Engineering Services offices in the UK and India.

 

Backlog for the Engineering, Training Services and Production Solutions reporting segment remained approximately US$0.3 billion at 30 June 2011 (31 December 2010: US$0.3 billion).

Energy Developments

Energy Developments provides a fully integrated service for resource holders under flexible commercial models that are aligned to their requirements. Projects cover upstream developments, both greenfield and brownfield, and related energy infrastructure projects, and can include the provision of capital.

 

In late January 2011, we secured our first Risk Service Contract (RSC) in Malaysia, for the development of the Berantai field. We have a 50% interest in the RSC, alongside local partners Kencana and Sapura, each of whom hold a 25% interest (together the 'Berantai partners'). The Berantai partners will develop the field and will subsequently operate the field for a period of seven years after first gas production. As part of the fast-track development, a wellhead platform will be installed to support the drilling of eighteen wells, with a second wellhead platform expected to be installed in a subsequent phase. Both platforms will be connected to the FPSO Berantai, which is being upgraded in Singapore, with support from Engineering & Construction and Offshore Engineering & Operations. Produced gas will be exported by subsea pipeline via the Angsi Field, while oil will be offloaded via shuttle tanker. The FPSO Berantai is expected to mobilise to the field in early 2012, with first gas from the field expected shortly thereafter.

 

Pre-investing in field infrastructure in readiness for future developments is part of our strategy to deliver fast-track development solutions for resource holders. In June, we acquired a high specification FPSO from Chevron, following its recent release from the Woodside-operated Cossack Wanaea fields in Australia. This unit, renamed the FPF4 (formerly the Cossack Pioneer), has substantial oil & gas processing capability and we are reviewing deployment opportunities with resource holders that require a combination of fast-track field development and floating production capability. Also in June, we acquired the FPF3 (formerly the Jasmine Venture) from field operator Pearl Energy. The FPF3 is currently deployed on the Jasmine field in the Gulf of Thailand, and is leased to Pearl Energy, a subsidiary of Mubadala Energy, for a minimum term of three years, with options to extend for a further three years. The transaction reflects our strong ongoing relationship with Mubadala, our partner in Petrofac Emirates. We are also providing operations and maintenance services for the FPF3 through Offshore Engineering & Operations. As both owner of the FPSO and its service provider, we can support Pearl's current requirements, while working with them to identify potential areas for further support on this and future projects in the Gulf of Thailand. The combined cost of these two vessels was approximately US$70 million.

 

As anticipated, oil production from the first phase of Cendor, offshore Peninsular Malaysia, was lower in the first half of the year at 10,300 barrels per day (bpd) (2010: 14,300 bpd) due to natural field decline. We intend to install gas lift facilities during the second half to stabilise production levels. In July, we announced that we had signed an MOU with PETRONAS to accelerate the development of the West Desaru fault block by introducing an early production system which will involve both utilising current export facilities and also upgrading and deploying a Mobile Offshore Production Unit (MOPU). This approach is expected to bring forward first oil from West Desaru into the fourth quarter of 2012. The second phase development of the Cendor fault block, also in Block PM304, is expected to start up in the second quarter of 2013, bringing the overall production capacity of Block PM304 to around 60,000 bpd.

 

Normal production from the Chergui gas plant has been strong during the first half, offsetting the impact of several short shut-ins following the political changes in Tunisia earlier in the year. Production averaged 25.8 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscfd) of gas during the period (2010: 27.0 mmscfd).

 

The Ohanet RSC in Algeria, which is due to finish in October this year, and the 10,000 bpd capacity KPC refinery in Kyrgyzstan continue to perform in line with expectations.

 

 

 

Results

Revenue for the period increased 50.3% to US$159.7 million (2010: US$106.3 million) due to the commencement of the Berantai RSC, partially offset by the demerger of the Don assets in April 2010. Excluding the current period revenue contribution from Berantai and the prior period contribution from the Don assets, revenue was 12.5% lower than in the corresponding period in 2010 due to lower production levels on Cendor, partially offset by higher average oil prices.

 

No profit was recognised on the Berantai RSC during the first half of the year, as the project is in its early stages. Notwithstanding higher average oil prices, net profit was lower at US$7.7 million (2010: US$17.5 million), due to a lower contribution from Cendor due to lower production and the demerger of the Don assets.

 

Headcount was broadly flat over the first six months of the year at 600 (31 December 2010: 600).

 

____________________
1  Brent, a benchmark crude, averaged US$111 per barrel for the six months ended 30 June 2011, compared to US$77 per barrel for the corresponding period in 2010. Energy Developments' policy is to hedge 75% of forecast production on a rolling 12-month basis for those assets that have achieved steady-state production. At 30 June 2011, a series of commodity price collars and swaps were outstanding in relation to the Cendor and Chergui assets.

Key risks and uncertainties

Those key risks and uncertainties that could lead to a significant loss of reputation or that could prevent us from executing our strategy and creating shareholder value are summarised below. Our approach to managing and mitigating these risks is as described on pages 30 to 35 of the group's Annual report and accounts 2010, as is an explanation of our risk management systems and procedures:

 

Industry risk

Description

Level of demand for the group's services

Oil & gas commodity prices

Long-term expectations of the price of oil & gas may have an impact on the level of new investment in the industry and may therefore affect demand for our services.

 

The financial performance of Energy Developments is more leveraged to the price of oil & gas through its co-investment in upstream oil & gas assets, and its financial result may be impacted.

Availability of essential executive or project staff

 

The availability of skilled personnel remains one of the most significant challenges facing the oil & gas industry.

 

Country risk

Security

Business continuity

 

Exchange rates

 

Sovereign change of law and contract enforcement

Breach of legal or regulatory code

Political Risk

Project Risk

Contract performance

Our financial performance could be materially affected by the performance of a relatively small number of large contracts, particularly those which are lump-sum. Furthermore, our operational performance is important in maintaining our reputation for successful project delivery.

 

Counterparty

 

Cost inflation

 

Health, safety and environmental performance

 

 

The list above does not purport to be exhaustive. There may be other risks and uncertainties, not presently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial, that could affect the performance of the business.

 

 

 

Going concern

The financial position of the Company, its cash flows, liquidity position and borrowing facilities, and its business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in this Business Review and in the group's Annual report and accounts 2010 on pages 16 to 55. In addition, note 33 to the group's Annual report and accounts 2010 includes the Company's objectives, policies and processes for managing its capital; its financial risk management objectives; details of its financial instruments and hedging activities; and its exposures to credit risk and liquidity risk.

 

The Company has considerable financial resources together with long-term contracts with a number of customers and suppliers across different geographic areas and industries. As a consequence, the Directors believe that the Company is well placed to manage its business risks successfully.

 

The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.

 

 

Outlook

We are confident that we can continue the good progress that we have achieved in Engineering & Construction in the year to date, and we expect to deliver full year net margins in line with our medium-term guidance at around 11%.

 

While Offshore Engineering & Operations activity levels and revenues are expected to continue at record levels, net profit is expected to be lower in the second half of the year, as the first half benefited from significant progress on the SEPAT development and a provision release following completion of a long-term maintenance services contract. Net margins for the full year are expected to be substantially higher than in the prior year.

 

The second half performance of the Engineering, Training Services and Production Solutions reporting segment is expected to be broadly in line with the first half of the year, albeit with a greater contribution from Production Solutions, as we expect a general improvement in our consultancy and technology businesses and a positive contribution from the Ticleni PEC.

 

In Energy Developments, our operational assets are expected to continue to perform broadly in line with the first half, with the exception of the Ohanet RSC, which ends, as expected, in October. On the Berantai field development, we expect the FPSO Berantai to mobilise to the field in early 2012, with first gas from the field expected shortly thereafter.

 

With a strong financial position, a differentiated and competitive offering and a proven track record in project execution, we are confident that we will continue to deliver superior value for our customers and sector-leading returns for our shareholders. We expect to deliver like-for-like net profit growth in 2011 of at least 15% and in-line with current market expectations.

1Like-for-like net profit growth excludes the gain of US$124.9 million on the EnQuest demerger and the trading net profit from Energy Developments’ demerged assets of US$2.1 million for the year ended 31 December 2010.

2The current market expectations for Petrofac’s net profit for the year ending 31 December 2011 are based on forecasts provided to Petrofac by 21 equity analysts since publication of the group’s 2010 Final Results in March 2011. The average of those forecasts is US$514 million.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the six months ended 30 June 2011

 

 

1              CORPORATE INFORMATION

 

Petrofac Limited is a limited liability company registered in Jersey under the Companies (Jersey) Law 1991 and is the holding company for the international group of Petrofac subsidiaries (together "the group").  The group's principal activities are the provision of facilities solutions to the oil & gas production and processing industry and appraisal, development and operation of oil & gas production and refining projects.  The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the group for the six months ended 30 June 2011 were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors on 19 August 2011.

 

 

2              BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of preparation

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for derivative financial instruments and available-for-sale financial assets that have been measured at fair value.  The presentation currency of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements is United States dollars (US$) and all values in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars (US$'000) except where otherwise stated.

 

Statement of compliance

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Petrofac Limited and all its subsidiaries for the six months ended 30 June 2011 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Statements' and applicable requirements of Jersey law.  They do not include all of the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the group as at and for the year ended 31 December 2010. Certain comparative information has been restated in the current period presentation as outlined below.

 

Restatements

 

The following restatements were made in the 2010 comparatives:

·      The directors have re-considered the nature of the contractual commitments to a joint venture on a lump sum construction contract in the Engineering & Construction reporting segment and as a result, US$13,426,000 included in non-controlling interests in the statement of financial position at 1 January 2010 was reclassified to trade and other payables (US$9,226,000) and other reserves (US$4,200,000). 

The amount of US$ 3,662,000 shown as attributable to non controlling interests in the 2010 income statement has been reclassified to cost of sales. US$5,381,000 shown within other comprehensive income has been shown as attributable to Petrofac. In the statement of financial position, the same amount was reclassified from non controlling interests to trade and other payables.

·      A variation order on a contract in the Engineering & Construction reporting segment was agreed in the first half of 2010 but was not reflected in the interim results, leading to an understatement in revenue (US$35,200,000), cost of sales (US$3,170,000) and income tax expense (US$5,977,000).  Furthermore, the group's income tax expense was adjusted by US$1,436,000 to reflect the impact of this adjustment on the interim group tax charge.

Accounting policies

 

The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the group's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010, except as noted below.

 

The group has adopted new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) of the IASB that are relevant to its operations and effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011.  The principal effects of the adoption of the relevant new and amended standards and interpretations are discussed below:

 

IAS 24 'Related Party Transactions (Amendment)' the definition of a related party has been clarified and the new definitions emphasise a symmetrical view of related party relationships as well as clarifying in which circumstances persons and key management personnel affect related party relationships of an entity. Further, the amendment exempts the entity from disclosing general related party disclosures for transactions with a government and entities that are controlled, jointly controlled or significantly influenced by the same government as the reporting entity. The adoption of the amendment did not have any impact of the financial position or performance of the group.

                               

2              BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Accounting policies (continued)

 

IAS 32 'Financial Instruments (Amendment)' the amendment alters the definition of a financial liability in IAS 32 to enable entities to classify rights issues and certain options or warrants as equity instruments. The amendment is applicable if the rights are given pro rata to all existing owners of the same class of an entity's non derivative equity instruments, to acquire a fixed number of the entity's own equity instruments for a fixed amount in any currency. The amendment has had no effect on the financial position or performance of the group.

 

3              SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

The following tables represent revenue and profit information relating to the group's primary business segments for the six months ended 30 June 2011.

The significant movements in total group assets as at 30 June 2011 compared to total assets as at 31 December 2010 are primarily in the following segments:






Engineering &

Energy


Construction


Developments


US$'000


US$'000

563,435

Total assets as at 31 December 2010

3,008,719


322,437

 

§ Increase in Engineering & Construction segment assets during the period is primarily due to increase in cash and cash equivalents of US$833,255,000 mainly as a result of advances received on EPC contracts.

§ Increase in Energy Developments segment assets during the period is primarily due to additions to property, plant and equipment of US$138,961,000 mainly relating to the purchase of Floating Production Storage and Offloading Vessels (FPSO's) (see note 9) and recognition of a receivable on the Berantai RSC contract in Malaysia of US$79,745,000 and a receivable from joint venture partners for the purchase of the FPSO Berantai (formerly the East Fortune) of US$30,103,000.

Included in revenues from rendering of services are Offshore Engineering & Operations, Engineering Services, Training Services and Production Solutions revenues of a "pass-through" nature with zero or low margins amounting to US$111,274,000 (six months ended 30 June 2010: US$95,011,000; year ended 31 December 2010: US$227,974,000).

 

 

5              COST OF SALES

 

Also included in cost of sales are forward points and ineffective portions on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges and gains on undesignated derivatives of US$1,150,000 (six months ended 30 June 2010: US$3,175,000 gains; year ended 31 December 2010: US$3,409,000 losses).

 

 

6              INCOME TAX

 

Income tax expense is recognised based on management's best estimate of the annual income tax rate applied to the pre tax income of the interim period. 

 

The major components of the income tax expense are as follows:

The group's effective tax rate for the six months is 17.7% (excluding the 2010 gain from the demerger; six months ended 30 June 2010: 21.0%; year ended 31 December 2010: 20.3%).

 

Excluding the gain from the demerger, the effective tax rate has decreased from the comparable 2010 period and the year ended 31 December 2010. The effective tax rate for the group for the year to 31 December 2011 is expected to be 21.7%. However, due to the timing of profit recognition on Engineering & Construction contracts between the first half and second half of the year, a lower tax charge and effective tax rate is acknowledged in the first half of 2011.

 

If the consequences of the timing issues noted above are accounted for, the effective tax rate for 2011 for the group is expected to be greater than the effective tax rate in the comparable 2010 periods. This is a result of changes in the overall mix of taxable jurisdictions within which Engineering & Construction operate.  



 

 

6              INCOME TAX (continued)

 

In March 2011, the UK Government announced its intention to reduce the UK corporation tax rate from 28% to 26% effective from 1st April 2011 and then to further reduce the UK corporation tax rate to 23% over the course of the next 3 years. As of 30 June 2011, the initial tax rate change to 26% was substantively enacted and the deferred tax asset and liabilities are disclosed at the new rate. The deferred tax assets and liabilities would have reduced by approximately US$1,142,000 and US$17,000 respectively, had the further changes to the corporation tax rate down to 23% been substantively enacted as of the said date.

 

 

7              EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

 

Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to ordinary shareholders, after adjusting for any dilutive effect, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the effects of ordinary shares granted under the employee share award schemes which are held in trust. 

 

The following reflects the income and share data used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share:

The Company proposes an interim dividend of 17.40 cents per share which was approved by the Board on 19 August 2011 for payment on 21 October 2011.

 

 

 

9              PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

 

Increase in property, plant and equipment during the period mainly comprises of the purchases and upgrade of the FPSO Berantai, the Jasmine Venture FPSO (renamed FPF3) and the Cossack Pioneer FPSO (renamed FPF4) for a combined cost of US$135,465,000.

 

10           GOODWILL

 

The net increase in the goodwill balance in the current period mainly represents unrealised foreign exchange gains on translation of US$2,546,000 with the balance being the payment of additional deferred consideration in respect of the SPD Group Limited and Caltec Limited acquisitions.

 

 

11           INVESTMENT IN ASSOCIATES AND AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE FINANCIAL ASSETS

 

During the period an additional investment of US$50,000,000 was made in Seven Energy International Limited (Seven Energy) which increased the group's shareholding in the company from 15% to 20% which has resulted in the group exercising significant influence over the financial and operating policy decisions of Seven Energy. As a result the available-for-sale financial asset with a carrying value of US$101,251,000 at 31 December 2010 has been reclassified as an investment in associate from 10 June 2011. The movement in investment in associates during the period is as follows:

(687)

12           DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The movement during the period is due to changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments which the group uses to hedge its risk against foreign currency exposure on sales, purchases and borrowings that are entered into in a currency other than US dollars and exposure to oil price revenue fluctuations.

 

During the period the group entered into various fuel oil swaps for hedging gas production of 12,700MT with maturities ranging from January 2012 to May 2012. In addition, two crude oil swaps were also entered into for hedging oil production of 16,800 bbl with maturities from January 2012 to February 2012.

 

During the period the group entered into the following foreign exchange forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges:

During the period, the Company acquired 1,950,000 (30 June 2010: 2,122,786; 31 December 2010: 2,122,960) of its own shares at a cost of US$47,387,000 (30 June 2010: US$37,016,000; 31 December 2010: US$36,486,000) for the purpose of making awards under the group's employee share schemes and these shares have been classified in the balance sheet as treasury shares within equity. In addition during the period 2,407,103 shares (including 288,408 accrued dividend shares) with a cost of US$31,013,000 were transferred out of the Employee Benefit Trust on vesting of various employee share scheme awards as shown below.

The fair value of the equity-settled awards granted during the period ended 30 June 2011 in respect of the Deferred Bonus Share Plan were estimated based on the quoted closing market price of 1,426 pence per Company share at the date of grant with an assumed vesting rate of 98.0% per annum over the vesting period of the plan.

 

The fair value of the non-market based equity-settled awards granted during the period ended 30 June 2011 representing 50% of the total Performance Share Plan award were estimated based on the quoted closing market price of 1,426 pence per Company share at the date of grant with an assumed vesting rate of 95.0% per annum over the three year vesting period of the plan.  The remaining 50% of these awards which are market performance based were fair valued by an independent valuer at 788 pence per share using a Monte Carlo simulation model taking into account the terms and conditions of the plan rules and using the following assumptions at the date of grant:

The fair value of the equity-settled awards granted at various dates during the period ended 30 June 2011 in respect of the Restricted Share Plan were based on an average market price of 1,398 pence with an assumed vesting rate of 95.0% per annum over the vesting period of the plan.

 

The group has recognised an expense in the income statement for the period to 30 June 2011 relating to employee share-based incentives of US$9,910,000 (six months ended 30 June 2010: US$6,538,000; year ended 31 December 2010: US$14,784,000) which has been transferred to the reserve for share-based payments along with US$16,906,000 of the remaining bonus liability accrued for the year ended 31 December 2010 (30 June 2010: US$12,750,000; 31 December 2010: US$12,750,000) which has been voluntarily elected or mandatorily obliged to be settled in shares granted during the period.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO PETROFAC LIMITED

 

Introduction

 

We have been engaged by Petrofac Limited ('the Company') to review the interim condensed consolidated financial statements in the interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2011 which comprises the interim condensed consolidated income statement, the Interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position, the Interim condensed consolidated cash flow statement, the Interim condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the related explanatory notes. We have read the other information contained in the interim report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.

 

This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with guidance contained in International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 (UK and Ireland) "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company, for our work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.

 

Directors' Responsibilities

 

The interim report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the interim report in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority.

 

As disclosed in note 2, the annual consolidated financial statements of Petrofac Limited are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this interim report have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting".

 

Our Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements in the interim report based on our review.

 

Scope of Review

 

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

 

Conclusion

 

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Interim condensed consolidated financial statements in the interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2011 are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority.
