EOG RESOURCES, INC.NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

General.  The consolidated financial statements of EOG Resources, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively, EOG), included herein have been prepared by management without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  Accordingly, they reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial results for the interim periods presented.  Certain information and notes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  However, management believes that the disclosures included either on the face of the financial statements or in these notes are sufficient to make the interim information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in EOG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed on February 24, 2012 (EOG's 2011 Annual Report).

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards.In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-04, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820):  Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs."  ASU 2011-04 amends the Fair Value Measurement Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) to clarify the FASB's intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements and change certain principles or requirements for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements.  ASU 2011-04 became effective for interim and annual fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material impact on EOG's financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, "Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income."  ASU 2011-05 is intended to increase the prominence of comprehensive income in the financial statements by requiring that an entity that reports items of comprehensive income do so in either one continuous or two consecutive financial statements.  ASU 2011-05 also requires separate presentation on the face of the financial statements for items reclassified from other comprehensive income into net income.  Subsequently, in December 2011, the FASB deferred the effective date of the provisions of ASU 2011-05 relating to the presentation of reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The provisions of ASU 2011-05 not deferred by the FASB became effective for interim and annual fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  Retroactive application is required.  The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have a material impact on EOG's financial statements.

2.  Stock-Based Compensation

As more fully discussed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in EOG's 2011 Annual Report, EOG maintains various stock-based compensation plans.  Stock-based compensation expense is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income based upon the job function of the employee receiving the grants as follows (in millions):

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011
Lease and Well	$	8.0	$	7.2	$	16.5	$	14.9

Total	$	27.1	$	26.0	$	55.4	$	53.4

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The EOG Resources, Inc. 2008 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan, as amended (2008 Plan), provides for grants of stock options, stock-settled stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards.  At June 30, 2012, approximately 5.0 million common shares remained available for grant under the 2008 Plan.  EOG's policy is to issue shares related to the 2008 Plan from previously authorized unissued shares or treasury shares to the extent treasury shares are available.

Stock Options and Stock-Settled Stock Appreciation Rights and Employee Stock Purchase Plan.  The fair value of stock option and SAR grants is estimated using the Hull-White II binomial option pricing model.  The fair value of all Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) grants is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model.  Stock-based compensation expense related to stock option, SAR and ESPP grants totaled $10.5 million during both the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and $21.3 million and $19.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Weighted average fair values and valuation assumptions used to value stock option, SAR and ESPP grants during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

	Stock Options/SARs						ESPP
	Six Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
	2012			2011			2012			2011
Weighted Average Fair Value of Grants	$	35.65		$	36.57		$	28.24		$	21.55
Expected Volatility		39.97	%		37.13	%		46.42	%		30.26	%
Risk-Free Interest Rate		0.49	%		1.12	%		0.06	%		0.18	%
Dividend Yield		0.7	%		0.6	%		0.6	%		0.6	%
Expected Life	5.5 yrs			5.4 yrs			0.5 yrs			0.5 yrs

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Expected volatility is based on an equal weighting of historical volatility and implied volatility from traded options in EOG's common stock.  The risk-free interest rate is based upon United States Treasury yields in effect at the time of grant.  The expected life is based upon historical experience and contractual terms of stock option, SAR and ESPP grants.

(1) The total intrinsic value of stock options/SARs exercised for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $45.4 million and $59.9 million, respectively.  The intrinsic value is based upon the difference between the market price of EOG's common stock on the date of exercise and the grant price of the stock options/SARs.

At June 30, 2012, unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock option and SAR grants totaled $70.5 million.  This unrecognized expense will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average period of 2.4 years.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units.Employees may be granted restricted (non-vested) stock and/or restricted stock units without cost to them.  Stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock and restricted stock units totaled $16.6 million and $15.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $34.1 million and $33.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(1) Consists of costs related to an outside operated, offshore Central North Sea project in the United Kingdom (U.K.) ($20 million) and a shale project in the Horn River area of British Columbia, Canada (B.C.) ($6 million).  In the Central North Sea Columbus project, during the second quarter of 2012, a revised commercial arrangement for transportation and an updated project schedule necessitated the filing of a revised field development plan with the U.K. Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC). The revised plan is expected to be submitted during the third quarter of 2012.  DECC approval of the revised plan is expected during the first quarter of 2013.  In the B.C. shale project, EOG drilled seven wells in the first half of 2012 to retain land and further evaluate the project.  The related well completion activities for the B.C. shale project are not expected to commence until 2013 or later.

8.  Commitments and Contingencies

There are currently various suits and claims pending against EOG that have arisen in the ordinary course of EOG's business, including contract disputes, personal injury and property damage claims and title disputes.  While the ultimate outcome and impact on EOG cannot be predicted, management believes that the resolution of these suits and claims will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on EOG's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow.  EOG records reserves for contingencies when information available indicates that a loss is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.

9.  Pension and Postretirement Benefits

EOG has defined contribution pension plans in place for most of its employees in the United States, Canada, Trinidad and the United Kingdom, and defined benefit pension plans covering certain of its employees in Canada and Trinidad.  For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, EOG's total costs recognized for these pension plans were $18.8 million and $13.9 million, respectively.  EOG also has postretirement medical and dental plans in place for eligible employees in the United States and Trinidad, the costs of which are not material.

10.  Long-Term Debt and Common Stock

Long-Term Debt.  During the six months ended June 30, 2012, EOG utilized commercial paper and short-term borrowings from uncommitted credit facilities, bearing market interest rates, for various corporate financing purposes.  EOG had no outstanding borrowings from commercial paper issuances or uncommitted credit facilities at June 30, 2012.  The average of the borrowings outstanding under the commercial paper program and uncommitted credit facilities was $240 million and $82 thousand, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2012.  The weighted average interest rates for commercial paper and uncommitted credit facility borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were 0.44% and 0.70%, respectively.

EOG currently has a $2.0 billion unsecured Revolving Credit Agreement (Agreement) with domestic and foreign lenders.  The Agreement matures on October 11, 2016 and includes an option for EOG to extend, on up to two occasions, the term for successive one-year periods, subject to, among certain other terms and conditions, the consent of the banks holding greater than 50% of the commitments then outstanding under the Agreement.  At June 30, 2012, there were no borrowings or letters of credit outstanding under the Agreement.  Advances under the Agreement accrue interest based, at EOG's option, on either the London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin (Eurodollar rate), or the base rate (as defined in the Agreement) plus an applicable margin.  At June 30, 2012, the Eurodollar rate and applicable base rate, had there been any amounts borrowed under the Agreement, would have been 1.12% and 3.25%, respectively.

Common Stock.  On February 16, 2012, EOG's Board of Directors increased the quarterly cash dividend on the Common Stock from the previous $0.16 per share to $0.17 per share, effective with the dividend paid on April 30, 2012 to stockholders of record as of April 16, 2012.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The estimated fair value of crude oil and natural gas derivative contracts (including options/swaptions) and the interest rate swap contracts was based upon forward commodity price and interest rate curves based on quoted market prices.  The estimated fair value of the foreign currency rate swap was based upon forward currency rates.  Swaps were valued using market prices and discount rates from an independent third-party provider of financial market data.  The Black 76 Model was utilized in valuing options.

The initial measurement of asset retirement obligations at fair value is calculated using discounted cash flow techniques and based on estimates of future retirement costs associated with property, plant and equipment.  Significant Level 3 inputs used in the calculation of asset retirement obligations include plugging costs and reserve lives.  A reconciliation of EOG's asset retirement obligations is presented in Note 6.

EOG RESOURCES, INC.NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) (Unaudited)

Proved oil and gas properties and other property, plant and equipment with a carrying amount of $178 million were written down to their fair value of $82 million, resulting in a pretax impairment charge of $96 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  Included in the $96 million pretax impairment charge is a $60 million impairment of proved oil and gas properties and other property, plant and equipment, for which EOG utilized an accepted offer from a third-party as the basis for determining fair value.  Significant Level 3 assumptions associated with the calculation of discounted cash flows used in the impairment analysis include EOG's estimate of future crude oil and natural gas prices, production costs, development expenditures, anticipated production of proved reserves, appropriate risk-adjusted discount rates and other relevant data.

Fair Value of Debt.At both June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, EOG had outstanding $5,040 million aggregate principal amount of debt, which had estimated fair values of approximately $5,735 million and $5,657 million, respectively.  The estimated fair value of debt was based upon quoted market prices and, where such prices were not available, other observable (Level 2) inputs regarding interest rates available to EOG at the end of each respective period.

12.  Risk Management Activities

Commodity Price Risk.  As more fully discussed in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in EOG's 2011 Annual Report, EOG engages in price risk management activities from time to time.  These activities are intended to manage EOG's exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices for crude oil and natural gas.  EOG utilizes financial commodity derivative instruments, primarily price swap, collar, option and basis swap contracts, as a means to manage this price risk.  In addition to financial transactions, from time to time EOG is a party to various physical commodity contracts for the sale of hydrocarbons that cover varying periods of time and have varying pricing provisions.  These physical commodity contracts qualify for the normal purchases and normal sales exception and, therefore, are not subject to hedge accounting or mark-to-market accounting.  The financial impact of physical commodity contracts is included in revenues at the time of settlement, which in turn affects average realized hydrocarbon prices.

Commodity Derivative Contracts.  Presented below is a comprehensive summary of EOG's crude oil derivative contracts at June 30, 2012, with notional volumes expressed in barrels per day (Bbld) and prices expressed in dollars per barrel ($/Bbl).

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

(1) EOG has entered into natural gas derivative contracts which give counterparties the option of entering into derivative contracts at future dates.  Such options are exercisable monthly up until the settlement date of each monthly contract.  If the counterparties exercise all such options, the notional volume of EOG's existing natural gas derivative contracts will increase by 425,000 MMBtud at an average price of $5.44 per MMBtu for the period from August 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012.

(2) EOG has entered into natural gas derivative contracts which give counterparties the option of entering into derivative contracts at future dates.  Such options are exercisable monthly up until the settlement date of each monthly contract.  If the counterparties exercise all such options, the notional volume of EOG's existing natural gas derivative contracts will increase by 150,000 MMBtud at an average price of $4.79 per MMBtu for each month of 2013 and 2014.

Subsequent to June 30, 2012, EOG settled its natural gas financial price swap contracts for the period January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014 and received proceeds of $36.6 million.  Options associated with the settled 2014 price swap contracts remain in place.  An updated summary of EOG's natural gas financial price swap contracts as of August 2, 2012 is presented in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Capital Resources and Liquidity - Commodity Derivative Transactions."

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Derivative.  EOG is party to a foreign currency aggregate swap with multiple banks to eliminate any exchange rate impacts that may result from the $150 million principal amount of notes issued by one of EOG's Canadian subsidiaries.  EOG accounts for the foreign currency swap using the hedge accounting method.  Changes in the fair value of the foreign currency swap do not impact Net Income.  The after-tax net impact from the foreign currency swap resulted in a reduction in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) of $1 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and an increase of $1 million and a reduction of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Interest Rate Derivative.  EOG is a party to an interest rate swap with a counterparty bank.  The interest rate swap was entered into in order to mitigate EOG's exposure to volatility in interest rates related to EOG's $350 million principal amount of Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2014.  The interest rate swap has a notional amount of $350 million.  EOG accounts for the interest rate swap using the hedge accounting method.  Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap do not impact Net Income.  The after-tax net impact from the interest rate swap resulted in an increase in OCI of $0.1 million and a reduction of $4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and a reduction of $0.2 million and $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

EOG RESOURCES, INC.NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Concluded) (Unaudited)

The following table sets forth the amounts, on a gross basis, and classification of EOG's outstanding financial derivative instruments at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.  Certain amounts may be presented on a net basis in the consolidated financial statements when such amounts are with the same counterparty and subject to a master netting arrangement (in millions):

		Fair Value at

Interest rate swap - Noncurrent portion	Other Liabilities	$	4	$	3

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

Credit Risk.  Notional contract amounts are used to express the magnitude of commodity price, foreign currency and interest rate swap agreements.  The amounts potentially subject to credit risk, in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties, are equal to the fair value of such contracts (see Note 11).  EOG evaluates its exposure to significant counterparties on an ongoing basis, including those arising from physical and financial transactions.  In some instances, EOG requires collateral, parent guarantees or letters of credit to minimize credit risk.

All of EOG's outstanding derivative instruments are covered by International Swap Dealers Association Master Agreements (ISDAs) with counterparties.  The ISDAs may contain provisions that require EOG, if it is the party in a net liability position, to post collateral when the amount of the net liability exceeds the threshold level specified for EOG's then-current credit ratings.  In addition, the ISDAs may also provide that as a result of certain circumstances, including certain events that cause EOG's credit rating to become materially weaker than its then-current ratings, the counterparty may require all outstanding derivatives under the ISDAs to be settled immediately.  See Note 11 for the aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments that are in a net liability position at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.  EOG had no collateral posted at either June 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011 and held collateral of $100 million and $67 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

EOG RESOURCES, INC.

Overview

EOG Resources, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively, EOG), is one of the largest independent (non-integrated) crude oil and natural gas companies in the United States with proved reserves in the United States, Canada, Trinidad, the United Kingdom and China.  EOG operates under a consistent business and operational strategy that focuses predominantly on maximizing the rate of return on investment of capital by controlling operating and capital costs and maximizing reserve recoveries.  This strategy is intended to enhance the generation of cash flow and earnings from each unit of production on a cost-effective basis, allowing EOG to deliver long-term production growth while maintaining a strong balance sheet.  EOG implements its strategy by emphasizing the drilling of internally generated prospects in order to find and develop low-cost reserves.  Maintaining the lowest possible operating cost structure that is consistent with prudent and safe operations is also an important goal in the implementation of EOG's strategy.

United States and Canada.  EOG's efforts to identify plays with large reserve potential have proven a successful supplement to its base development and exploitation program in the United States and Canada.  EOG continues to drill numerous wells in large acreage plays, which in the aggregate are expected to contribute substantially to EOG's crude oil and natural gas liquids production.  EOG has placed an emphasis on applying its horizontal drilling and completion expertise gained from its natural gas resource plays to unconventional crude oil and liquids-rich reservoirs.  In 2012, EOG continues to focus its efforts on developing its existing North American crude oil and liquids-rich acreage.  In addition, EOG continues to evaluate certain potential liquids-rich exploration and development prospects.  For the first half of 2012, crude oil and condensate and natural gas liquids production accounted for approximately 44% of total company production as compared to 33% for the comparable period in 2011.  In North America, crude oil and condensate and natural gas liquids production accounted for approximately 51% of total North American production during the first half of 2012 as compared to 39% for the comparable period in 2011.  This liquids growth primarily reflects increased production from the Eagle Ford Shale near San Antonio, Texas, and the Fort Worth Basin Barnett Shale area.  Based on current trends, EOG expects its 2012 crude oil and condensate and natural gas liquids production to continue to increase both in total and as a percentage of total company production as compared to 2011.

EOG delivers its crude oil to various markets in the United States, including sales points on the Gulf Coast where sales are based upon a Light Louisiana Sweet (LLS) crude oil index.  As part of its diversification strategy for its crude-by-rail shipments, EOG completed the construction of a crude oil unloading facility in St. James, Louisiana, where sales are based upon the LLS crude oil index.  This facility, which received the first unit train of EOG crude oil in April 2012, has a capacity of approximately 100 thousand barrels per day (MBbld) and is able to accommodate multiple trains at a single time.  With completion of the St. James facility, EOG's crude-by-rail system now has access to the Gulf Coast market as well as the Cushing, Oklahoma, market.  At the beginning of July 2012, EOG began shipping a portion of its Eagle Ford Shale crude oil production to Gulf Coast sales points on the newly completed Enterprise Products Partners L.P. crude oil pipeline.  In addition, EOG began supplying sand for a portion of its completion operations in several plays, primarily in Texas, from Wisconsin sand mines in 2012.

EOG's wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, EOG Resources Canada Inc. (EOGRC), holds a 30% interest in both the planned liquefied natural gas export terminal to be located at Bish Cove, near the Port of Kitimat, north of Vancouver, British Columbia (Kitimat LNG Terminal) and the proposed Pacific Trail Pipelines (PTP) which is intended to link Western Canada's natural gas producing regions to the Kitimat LNG Terminal.  An affiliate of Apache Corporation is the operator of both the PTP and the Kitimat LNG Terminal.  The front-end engineering and design study is expected to be delivered in the second half of 2012, and EOG expects to make a final investment decision at the beginning of 2013.

EOG's major producing areas in the United States and Canada are in Louisiana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Texas, Utah, Wyoming and western Canada.

International.  In Trinidad, EOG continued to deliver natural gas under existing supply contracts.  Several fields in the South East Coast Consortium Block, Modified U(a) Block and Modified U(b) Block, as well as the Pelican Field, have been developed and are producing natural gas and crude oil and condensate.  Production from the Block 4(a) Toucan Field and the EMZ Area that began in the first quarter of 2012 is supplying natural gas under a contract with the National Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago.

In the United Kingdom, EOG continues to make progress in field development for its East Irish Sea Conwy/Corfe crude oil discovery and its Central North Sea Columbus natural gas discovery.  The field development plan for the Conwy/Corfe project was approved by the U.K. Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) in March 2012.  The production platform was installed during the second quarter of 2012 and the pipelines are scheduled to be installed in the fourth quarter of 2012.  EOG expects to begin processing facility installation in the first half of 2013.  The drilling of development wells is expected to commence at the beginning of 2013, with initial production expected in the second half of 2013.  In the Central North Sea Columbus project, during the second quarter of 2012, a revised commercial arrangement for transportation and an updated project schedule necessitated the filing of a revised field development plan with the DECC.  The revised plan is expected to be submitted in the third quarter of 2012 with DECC approval expected in the first quarter of 2013.

EOG's activity in Argentina is focused on the Vaca Muerta oil shale formation in the Neuquén Basin in Neuquén Province.  EOG participated in the drilling and completion of a vertical well in the Bajo del Toro Block.  In the first quarter of 2012, EOG drilled a well to monitor future well completions in the Aguada del Chivato Block.  During the second quarter of 2012, EOG completed a horizontal well in this block.  Both the horizontal and vertical wells that were completed are under evaluation.

EOG continues to evaluate other select crude oil and natural gas opportunities outside the United States and Canada, primarily by pursuing exploitation opportunities in countries where crude oil and natural gas reserves have been identified.

Capital Structure.  One of management's key strategies is to maintain a strong balance sheet with a consistently below average debt-to-total capitalization ratio as compared to those in EOG's peer group.  EOG's debt-to-total capitalization ratio was 27% and 28% at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.  As used in this calculation, total capitalization represents the sum of total current and long-term debt and total stockholders' equity.

EOG's total 2012 capital expenditures are estimated to range from $7.4 billion to $7.6 billion, excluding acquisitions.  The majority of 2012 expenditures will be focused on United States and Canada crude oil and liquids-rich gas drilling activity and, to a much lesser extent, natural gas drilling activity in the Haynesville, Marcellus and British Columbia Horn River Basin plays to hold acreage.  EOG expects capital expenditures to be greater than cash flow from operating activities for 2012.  EOG's business plan includes selling certain non-core assets in 2012 to partially cover the anticipated shortfall.  In the first half of 2012, proceeds of approximately $1.1 billion were received from the sales of producing properties and acreage primarily in the Rocky Mountain area, Upper Gulf Coast area and Canada.  EOG has significant flexibility with respect to financing alternatives, including borrowings under its commercial paper program and other uncommitted credit facilities, bank borrowings, borrowings under its revolving credit facility and equity and debt offerings.  When it fits EOG's strategy, EOG will make acquisitions that bolster existing drilling programs or offer incremental exploration and/or production opportunities.  Management continues to believe EOG has one of the strongest prospect inventories in EOG's history.

Wellhead crude oil and condensate revenues for the second quarter of 2012 increased $437 million, or 47%, to $1,376 million from $939 million for the same period of 2011, due to an increase of 54 MBbld, or 52%, in wellhead crude oil and condensate deliveries ($503 million), partially offset by a lower composite average wellhead crude oil and condensate price ($66 million).  The increase in deliveries primarily reflects increased production in the Eagle Ford Shale.  EOG's composite average wellhead crude oil and condensate price for the second quarter of 2012 decreased 5% to $95.20 per barrel compared to $99.77 per barrel for the same period of 2011.

Natural gas liquids revenues for the second quarter of 2012 decreased $34 million, or 18%, to $150 million from $184 million for the same period of 2011, due to a lower composite average natural gas liquids price ($80 million), partially offset by an increase of 16 MBbld, or 42%, in natural gas liquids deliveries ($46 million).  The increase in deliveries primarily reflects increased volumes in the Eagle Ford Shale and Fort Worth Basin Barnett Shale plays.  EOG's composite average natural gas liquids price for the second quarter of 2012 decreased 35% to $33.72 per barrel compared to $51.65 per barrel for the same period of 2011.

Wellhead natural gas revenues for the second quarter of 2012 decreased $241 million, or 40%, to $359 million from $600 million for the same period of 2011.  The decrease was due to a lower composite average wellhead natural gas price ($235 million) and a decrease in natural gas deliveries ($6 million).  EOG's composite average wellhead natural gas price for the second quarter of 2012 decreased 39% to $2.47 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf) compared to $4.08 per Mcf for the same period of 2011.

Natural gas deliveries for the second quarter of 2012 decreased 17 MMcfd, or 1%, to 1,598 MMcfd from 1,615 MMcfd for the same period of 2011.  The decrease was primarily due to lower production in the United States (44 MMcfd) and Canada (43 MMcfd), partially offset by increased production in Trinidad (73 MMcfd).  The decrease in the United States was primarily attributable to asset sales that occurred subsequent to the second quarter of 2011 and decreased production in Louisiana, the Rocky Mountain area, Kansas and New Mexico, partially offset by increased production in Texas and Pennsylvania.  The decrease in Canada was primarily due to decreased production in Alberta and the Horn River Basin area.  The increase in Trinidad was primarily attributable to an increase in contractual deliveries.

During the second quarter of 2012, EOG recognized net gains on the mark-to-market of financial commodity derivative contracts of $188 million compared to $190 million for the same period of 2011.  During the second quarter of 2012, the net cash inflow related to settled crude oil and natural gas derivative contracts was $173 million compared to $6 million for the same period of 2011.

Gathering, processing and marketing revenues represent sales of third-party crude oil and condensate, natural gas liquids and natural gas as well as fees associated with gathering third-party natural gas.  For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, gathering, processing and marketing revenues were primarily related to sales of third-party crude oil and natural gas.  The purchase and sale of third-party crude oil and natural gas are utilized in order to balance firm transportation capacity with production in certain areas and to utilize excess capacity at EOG-owned facilities.  Marketing costs represent the costs of purchasing third-party crude oil and natural gas and the associated transportation costs.

During the second quarter of 2012, gathering, processing and marketing revenues and marketing costs increased, compared to the same period of 2011, primarily as a result of increased crude oil marketing activities.  Gathering, processing and marketing revenues less marketing costs for the second quarter of 2012 totaled $17 million compared to $18 million for the same period of 2011.

Operating and Other Expenses. For the second quarter of 2012, operating expenses of $2,217 million were $235 million higher than the $1,982 million incurred in the second quarter of 2011.  The following table presents the costs per barrel of oil equivalent (Boe) for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:
 

	Three Months Ended

Total (1)	$	30.63	$	27.78

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

(1) Total excludes gathering and processing costs, exploration costs, dry hole costs, impairments, marketing costs and taxes other than income.

The primary factors impacting the cost components of per-unit rates of lease and well, transportation costs, DD&A and G&A for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 are set forth below.

Lease and well expenses include expenses for EOG-operated properties, as well as expenses billed to EOG from other operators where EOG is not the operator of a property.  Lease and well expenses can be divided into the following categories: costs to operate and maintain crude oil and natural gas wells, the cost of workovers and lease and well administrative expenses.  Operating and maintenance costs include, among other things, pumping services, salt water disposal, equipment repair and maintenance, compression expense, lease upkeep and fuel and power.  Workovers are operations to restore or maintain production from existing wells.

Each of these categories of costs individually fluctuates from time to time as EOG attempts to maintain and increase production while maintaining efficient, safe and environmentally responsible operations.  EOG continues to increase its operating activities by drilling new wells in existing and new areas.  Operating and maintenance costs within these existing and new areas, as well as the costs of services charged to EOG by vendors, fluctuate over time.  In general, operating and maintenance costs for wells producing crude oil are higher than operating and maintenance costs for wells producing natural gas.

Lease and well expenses of $251 million for the second quarter of 2012 increased $34 million from $217 million for the same prior year period primarily due to increased operating and maintenance costs in the United States ($31 million), increased workover expenditures in the United States ($4 million) and increased lease and well administrative expenses in the United States ($3 million), partially offset by decreased operating and maintenance costs in Canada ($4 million).

Transportation costs represent costs associated with the delivery of hydrocarbon products from the lease to a downstream point of sale.  Transportation costs include the cost of compression (the cost of compressing natural gas to meet pipeline pressure requirements), dehydration (the cost associated with removing water from natural gas to meet pipeline requirements), gathering fees, fuel costs, transportation fees and costs associated with crude-by-rail operations.

Transportation costs of $135 million for the second quarter of 2012 increased $33 million from $102 million for the same prior year period primarily due to increased transportation costs in the Eagle Ford Shale ($25 million) and the Rocky Mountain area ($11 million), partially offset by decreased transportation costs in the Fort Worth Basin Barnett Shale area ($5 million).

- 23 -

DD&A of the cost of proved oil and gas properties is calculated using the unit-of-production method.  EOG's DD&A rate and expense are the composite of numerous individual field calculations.  There are several factors that can impact EOG's composite DD&A rate and expense, such as field production profiles, drilling or acquisition of new wells, disposition of existing wells, reserve revisions (upward or downward) primarily related to well performance and economic factors and impairments.  Changes to these factors may cause EOG's composite DD&A rate and expense to fluctuate from year to year.  DD&A of the cost of other property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line depreciation method over the useful lives of the assets.

DD&A expenses for the second quarter of 2012 increased $206 million to $809 million from $603 million for the same prior year period.  DD&A expenses associated with oil and gas properties for the second quarter of 2012 were $203 million higher than the same prior year period primarily due to higher unit rates in the United States ($118 million), Canada ($8 million) and Trinidad ($3 million) and as a result of increased production in the United States ($90 million) and Trinidad ($5 million), partially offset by decreased production in Canada ($19 million) and favorable changes in the Canadian exchange rate ($3 million).

G&A expenses of $76 million for the second quarter of 2012 increased $8 million compared to the same prior year period primarily due to higher employee-related costs.

Gathering and processing costs represent operating and maintenance expenses and administrative expenses associated with operating EOG's gathering and processing assets.

Gathering and processing costs increased $3 million to $21 million for the second quarter of 2012 compared to $18 million for the same prior year period.  The increase primarily reflects increased activities in the Eagle Ford Shale.

Exploration costs of $48 million for the second quarter of 2012 increased $7 million from $41 million for the same prior year period primarily due to increased geological and geophysical expenditures ($4 million) and increased exploration administrative expenses ($3 million) both in the United States.

Impairments include amortization of unproved oil and gas property costs, as well as impairments of proved oil and gas properties and other property, plant and equipment.  Unproved properties with individually significant acquisition costs are amortized over the lease term and analyzed on a property-by-property basis for any impairment in value.  Unproved properties with acquisition costs that are not individually significant are aggregated, and the portion of such costs estimated to be nonproductive is amortized over the remaining lease term.  When circumstances indicate that a proved property may be impaired, EOG compares expected undiscounted future cash flows at a producing field level to the unamortized capitalized cost of the asset.  If the future undiscounted cash flows are lower than the unamortized capitalized cost, the capitalized cost is reduced to fair value.  Fair value is generally calculated by using the Income Approach as described in the Fair Value Measurement Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Accounting Standards Codification.  For certain natural gas assets held for sale, EOG utilizes accepted bids as the basis for determining fair value.

- 24 -

Impairments of $54 million for the second quarter of 2012 were $304 million lower than impairments for the same prior year period primarily due to decreased impairments of proved properties in Canada ($312 million) and decreased amortization of unproved property costs in the United States ($11 million) and Canada ($2 million), partially offset by increased impairments of proved properties in the United States ($21 million).  EOG recorded impairments of proved properties of $21 million and $312 million for the second quarter of 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Taxes other than income include severance/production taxes, ad valorem/property taxes, payroll taxes, franchise taxes and other miscellaneous taxes.  Severance/production taxes are generally determined based on wellhead revenues and ad valorem/property taxes are generally determined based on the valuation of the underlying assets.

Taxes other than income for the second quarter of 2012 increased $14 million to $118 million (6.3% of wellhead revenues) compared to $104 million (6.1% of wellhead revenues) for the same prior year period.  The increase in taxes other than income was primarily due to increased severance/production taxes in the United States ($18 million) primarily as a result of increased wellhead revenues and the accrual of a new fee imposed retroactively by the State of Pennsylvania on certain wells drilled in the state during 2011 and prior years, partially offset by decreased severance/production taxes in Trinidad ($6 million).

Income tax provision of $250 million for the second quarter of 2012 increased $3 million compared to 2011 due primarily to higher pretax income.  The net effective tax rate for 2012 decreased to 39% from 46% in the same prior year period primarily due to the absence of certain 2011 Canadian shallow natural gas impairments, which were tax effected at the lower Canadian statutory tax rate.  The effective tax rate for 2012 exceeded the United States statutory tax rate (35%) primarily due to foreign earnings in Trinidad (55% statutory tax rate) combined with losses in Canada (26% statutory tax rate).

Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 vs. Six Months Ended June 30, 2011

Net Operating Revenues.  During the first six months of 2012, net operating revenues increased $1,249 million, or 28%, to $5,716 million from $4,467 million for the same period of 2011.  Total wellhead revenues for the first six months of 2012 increased $550 million, or 17%, to $3,762 million from $3,212 million for the same period of 2011.  During the first six months of 2012, EOG recognized net gains on the mark-to-market of financial commodity derivative contracts of $323 million compared to net gains of $123 million for the same period of 2011.  Gathering, processing and marketing revenues for the first six months of 2012 increased $546 million, or 62%, to $1,429 million from $883 million for the same period of 2011.  Gains on asset dispositions, net, of $181 million for the first six months of 2012 primarily consist of gains on asset dispositions in the Rocky Mountain area and Canada.

Wellhead crude oil and condensate revenues for the first six months of 2012 increased $991 million, or 58%, to $2,687 million from $1,696 million for the same period of 2011, due to an increase of 50 MBbld, or 51%, in wellhead crude oil and condensate deliveries ($880 million) and a higher composite average wellhead crude oil and condensate price ($111 million).  The increase in deliveries primarily reflects increased production from the Eagle Ford Shale.  EOG's composite average wellhead crude oil and condensate price for the first six months of 2012 increased 4% to $98.00 per barrel compared to $93.95 per barrel for the same period of 2011.

Natural gas liquids revenues for the first six months of 2012 increased $15 million, or 5%, to $348 million from $333 million for the same period of 2011, due to an increase of 16 MBbld, or 43%, in natural gas liquids deliveries ($115 million), partially offset by a lower composite average natural gas liquids price ($100 million).  The increase in deliveries primarily reflects increased volumes in the Eagle Ford Shale and Fort Worth Basin Barnett Shale plays.  EOG's composite average natural gas liquids price for the first six months of 2012 decreased 22% to $38.27 per barrel compared to $49.29 per barrel for the same period of 2011.

Wellhead natural gas revenues for the first six months of 2012 decreased $457 million, or 39%, to $727 million from $1,184 million for the same period of 2011.  The decrease was due to a lower composite average wellhead natural gas price ($411 million) and decreased natural gas deliveries ($46 million).  EOG's composite average wellhead natural gas price for the first six months of 2012 decreased 36% to $2.54 per Mcf compared to $3.98 per Mcf for the same period of 2011.

Natural gas deliveries for the first six months of 2012 decreased 72 MMcfd, or 4%, to 1,573 MMcfd from 1,645 MMcfd for the same period of 2011.  The decrease was primarily due to decreased production in the United States (57 MMcfd) and Canada (41 MMcfd), partially offset by higher production in Trinidad (29 MMcfd).  The decrease in the United States was primarily attributable to asset sales that occurred subsequent to the first six months of 2011 and decreased production in the Rocky Mountain area, Louisiana and Kansas, partially offset by increased production in Texas and Pennsylvania.  The decrease in production in Canada was due to decreased production in Alberta and the Horn River Basin area.  The increase in Trinidad was primarily attributable to an increase in contractual deliveries.

During the first six months of 2012, EOG recognized net gains on the mark-to-market of financial commodity derivative contracts of $323 million compared to net gains of $123 million for the same period of 2011.  During the first six months of 2012, the net cash inflow related to settled crude oil and natural gas derivative contracts was $307 million compared to the net cash inflow of $31 million for the same period of 2011.

During the first six months of 2012, gathering, processing and marketing revenues and marketing costs increased, compared to the same period of 2011, primarily as a result of increased crude oil and natural gas marketing activities.  Gathering, processing and marketing revenues less marketing costs for the first six months of 2012 totaled $29 million compared to $28 million for the same period of 2011.

(1) Total excludes gathering and processing costs, exploration costs, dry hole costs, impairments, marketing costs and taxes other than income.

   The primary factors impacting the cost components of per-unit rates of lease and well, transportation costs, DD&A and G&A for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 are set forth below.

Lease and well expenses of $512 million for the first six months of 2012 increased $80 million from $432 million for the same prior year period primarily due to higher operating and maintenance costs ($71 million) and higher lease and well administrative expenses ($9 million) both in the United States.

Transportation costs of $267 million for the first six months of 2012 increased $67 million from $200 million for the same prior year period primarily due to increased transportation costs in the Eagle Ford Shale ($53 million), the Rocky Mountain area ($13 million) and the Upper Gulf Coast area ($7 million), partially offset by decreased transportation costs in the Fort Worth Basin Barnett Shale area ($8 million).

DD&A expenses for the first six months of 2012 increased $387 million to $1,558 million from $1,171 million for the same prior year period.  DD&A expenses associated with oil and gas properties for the first six months of 2012 were $378 million higher than the same prior year period primarily due to higher unit rates in the United States ($227 million) and Canada ($17 million) and as a result of increased production in the United States ($169 million) and Trinidad ($3 million), partially offset by decreased production in Canada ($35 million) and favorable changes in the Canadian exchange rate ($4 million).

DD&A expenses associated with other property, plant and equipment for the first six months of 2012 were $9 million higher than the same prior year period primarily due to gathering and processing assets placed in service in the Eagle Ford Shale.

G&A expenses of $152 million for the first six months of 2012 increased $15 million compared to the same prior year period primarily due to higher employee-related costs.

Gathering and processing costs for the first six months of 2012 increased $9 million to $46 million compared to the same prior year period primarily due to increased activities in the Eagle Ford Shale.

Impairments of $187 million for the first six months of 2012 were $261 million lower than impairments for the same prior year period primarily due to decreased impairments of proved properties in Canada ($312 million) and decreased amortization of unproved property costs in the United States ($11 million) and Canada ($4 million), partially offset by increased impairments of proved properties and other assets in the United States ($67 million).  EOG recorded impairments of proved properties and other assets of $115 million and $360 million for the first six months of 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Taxes other than income for the first six months of 2012 increased $30 million to $240 million (6.4% of wellhead revenues) from $210 million (6.5% of wellhead revenues) for the same prior year period.  The increase in taxes other than income was primarily due to increased severance/production taxes in the United States ($40 million) primarily as a result of increased wellhead revenues and the accrual of a new fee imposed retroactively by the State of Pennxylvania on certain wells drilled in the state during 2011 and prior years and higher ad valorem/property taxes in the United States ($4 million), partially offset by decreased severance/production taxes in Trinidad ($9 million) and Canada ($4 million) and an increase in credits available to EOG in 2012 for Texas high-cost gas severance tax rate reductions ($3 million).

Other income, net was $15 million for the first six months of 2012 compared to $10 million for the same prior year period.  The increase of $5 million was primarily due to an increase in interest income ($8 million), partially offset by lower foreign currency transaction gains ($3 million).

Income tax provision of $447 million for the first six months of 2012 increased $107 million compared to 2011 due primarily to higher pretax income.  The net effective tax rate for the first six months of 2012 decreased to 38% from 44% in the same prior year period primarily due to the absence of certain 2011 Canadian shallow natural gas impairments, which were tax effected at the lower Canadian statutory tax rate.  The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2012 exceeded the United States statutory tax rate (35%) primarily due to foreign earnings in Trinidad (55% statutory tax rate) combined with losses in Canada (26% statutory tax rate).

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Cash Flow. The primary sources of cash for EOG during the six months ended June 30, 2012 were funds generated from operations, proceeds from asset sales and proceeds from stock options exercised and employee stock purchase plan activity.The primary uses of cash were funds used in operations; exploration and development expenditures; other property, plant and equipment expenditures; and dividend payments to stockholders.  During the first six months of 2012, EOG's cash balance decreased $336 million to $280 million from $616 million at December 31, 2011.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $2,573 million for the first six months of 2012 increased $504 million compared to the same period of 2011 primarily reflecting an increase in wellhead revenues ($550 million), a favorable change in net cash flow from the settlement of financial commodity derivative contracts ($275 million) and favorable changes in working capital and other assets and liabilities ($23 million), partially offset by an increase in cash operating expenses ($198 million), an increase in net cash paid for income taxes ($78 million) and an increase in net cash paid for interest expense ($16 million).

Net cash used in investing activities of $2,855 million for the first six months of 2012 increased by $259 million compared to the same period of 2011 due primarily to an increase in additions to oil and gas properties ($626 million); partially offset by favorable changes in working capital associated with investing activities ($175 million); an increase in proceeds from sales of assets ($167 million) and a decrease in additions to other property, plant and equipment ($25 million).

- 29 -

Net cash used in financing activities of $57 million for the first six months of 2012 included cash dividend payments ($89 million) and the purchase of treasury stock in connection with stock compensation plans ($23 million).  Cash provided by financing activities for the first six months of 2012 included proceeds from stock options exercised and employee stock purchase plan activity ($33 million) and excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation ($22 million).  Net cash provided by financing activities of $1,315 million for the first six months of 2011 included net proceeds from the sale of common stock ($1,388 million) and proceeds from stock options exercised and employee stock purchase plan activity ($25 million).  Cash used in financing activities for the first six months of 2011 included cash dividend payments ($82 million) and the purchase of treasury stock in connection with stock compensation plans ($17 million).

Total Expenditures. For the year 2012, EOG's budget for exploration and development and other property, plant and equipment expenditures is approximately $7.4 billion to $7.6 billion, excluding acquisitions.  The table below sets out components of total expenditures for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 (in millions):

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2012		2011
Expenditure Category
Capital
Drilling and Facilities	$	3,438	$	2,930
Leasehold Acquisitions		275		133
Property Acquisitions		-		4
Capitalized Interest		24		30
Subtotal		3,737		3,097
Exploration Costs		91		92
Dry Hole Costs		11		25
Exploration and Development Expenditures		3,839		3,214
Asset Retirement Costs		32		15
Total Exploration and Development Expenditures		3,871		3,229
Other Property, Plant and Equipment		316		340
Total Expenditures	$	4,187	$	3,569

Exploration and development expenditures of $3,839 million for the first six months of 2012 were $625 million higher than the same period of 2011 due primarily to increased drilling and facilities expenditures in the United States ($540 million), the United Kingdom ($47 million) and Argentina ($31 million); increased leasehold acquisition expenditures in the United States ($120 million) and Canada ($23 million); increased dry hole costs in China ($11 million); and increased exploration administrative expenses in the United States ($5 million).  These increases were partially offset by decreased drilling and facilities expenditures in Trinidad ($43 million), Canada ($42 million) and China ($18 million); decreased dry hole costs in the United States ($25 million); decreased exploration geological and geophysical expenditures in the United States ($6 million); decreased capitalized interest in the United States ($6 million); favorable changes in the foreign currency exchange rate in Canada ($4 million); and decreased property acquisition expenditures in the United States ($4 million).  The exploration and development expenditures for the first six months of 2012 of $3,839 million consist of $3,336 million in development, $479 million in exploration and $24 million in capitalized interest.  The exploration and development expenditures for the first six months of 2011 of $3,214 million consist of $2,902 million in development, $278 million in exploration, $30 million in capitalized interest and $4 million in property acquisitions.

- 30 -

The level of exploration and development expenditures, including acquisitions, will vary in future periods depending on energy market conditions and other related economic factors.  EOG has significant flexibility with respect to financing alternatives and the ability to adjust its exploration and development expenditure budget as circumstances warrant.  While EOG has certain continuing commitments associated with expenditure plans related to its operations, such commitments are not expected to be material when considered in relation to the total financial capacity of EOG.

Commodity Derivative Transactions. As more fully discussed in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in EOG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed on February 24, 2012, EOG engages in price risk management activities from time to time.  These activities are intended to manage EOG's exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices for crude oil and natural gas.  EOG utilizes financial commodity derivative instruments, primarily price swap, collar, option and basis swap contracts, as a means to manage this price risk.  EOG has not designated any of its financial commodity derivative contracts as accounting hedges and, accordingly, accounts for financial commodity derivative contracts using the mark-to-market accounting method.  Under this accounting method, changes in the fair value of outstanding financial instruments are recognized as gains or losses in the period of change and are recorded as Gains on Mark-to-Market Commodity Derivative Contracts in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.  The related cash flow impact is reflected as Cash Flows from Operating Activities.  In addition to financial transactions, from time to time EOG is a party to various physical commodity contracts for the sale of hydrocarbons that cover varying periods of time and have varying pricing provisions.  The financial impact of physical commodity contracts is included in revenues at the time of settlement, which in turn affects average realized hydrocarbon prices.

Commodity Derivative Contracts.The total estimated fair value of EOG's crude oil and natural gas derivative contracts (options/swaptions) was reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2012 as an asset of $464 million.  Presented below is a comprehensive summary of EOG's crude oil derivative contracts at August 2, 2012, with notional volumes expressed in barrels per day (Bbld) and prices expressed in dollars per barrel ($/Bbl).

Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  All statements, other than statements of historical facts, including, among others, statements and projections regarding EOG's future financial position, operations, performance, business strategy, returns, budgets, reserves, levels of production and costs and statements regarding the plans and objectives of EOG's management for future operations, are forward-looking statements.  EOG typically uses words such as "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," "strategy," "intend," "plan," "target," "goal," "may," "will" and "believe" or the negative of those terms or other variations or comparable terminology to identify its forward-looking statements.  In particular, statements, express or implied, concerning EOG's future operating results and returns or EOG's ability to replace or increase reserves, increase production, generate income or cash flows or pay dividends are forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance.  Although EOG believes the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable and are based on reasonable assumptions, no assurance can be given that these assumptions are accurate or that any of these expectations will be achieved (in full or at all) or will prove to have been correct.  Moreover, EOG's forward-looking statements may be affected by known and unknown risks, events or circumstances that may be outside EOG's control.  Important factors that could cause EOG's actual results to differ materially from the expectations reflected in EOG's forward-looking statements include, among others:

· the timing and extent of changes in prices for, and demand for, crude oil and condensate, natural gas liquids, natural gas and related commodities;

· the extent to which EOG is successful in its efforts to acquire or discover additional reserves;

· the extent to which EOG can optimize reserve recovery and economically develop its plays utilizing horizontal and vertical drilling, advanced completion technologies and hydraulic fracturing;

· the extent to which EOG is successful in its efforts to economically develop its acreage in, and to produce reserves and achieve anticipated production levels from, its existing and future crude oil and natural gas exploration and development projects, given the risks and uncertainties and capital expenditure requirements inherent in drilling, completing and operating crude oil and natural gas wells and the potential for interruptions of development and production, whether involuntary or intentional as a result of market or other conditions;

· the extent to which EOG is successful in its efforts to market its crude oil, natural gas and related commodity production;

· the availability, proximity and capacity of, and costs associated with, gathering, processing, compression and transportation facilities;

· the availability, cost, terms and timing of issuance or execution of, and competition for, mineral licenses and leases and governmental and other permits and rights-of-way;

· the impact of, and changes in, government policies, laws and regulations, including tax laws and regulations, environmental laws and regulations relating to air emissions, waste disposal, hydraulic fracturing and access to and use of water, laws and regulations imposing conditions and restrictions on drilling and completion operations and laws and regulations with respect to derivatives and hedging activities;

· EOG's ability to effectively integrate acquired crude oil and natural gas properties into its operations, fully identify existing and potential problems with respect to such properties and accurately estimate reserves, production and costs with respect to such properties;

· the extent to which EOG's third-party-operated crude oil and natural gas properties are operated successfully and economically;

· competition in the oil and gas exploration and production industry for employees and other personnel, equipment, materials and services and, related thereto, the availability and cost of employees and other personnel, equipment, materials and services;

· the accuracy of reserve estimates, which by their nature involve the exercise of professional judgment and may therefore be imprecise;

· weather, including its impact on crude oil and natural gas demand, and weather-related delays in drilling and in the installation and operation of production, gathering, processing, compression and transportation facilities;

- 33 -

· the ability of EOG's customers and other contractual counterparties to satisfy their obligations to EOG and, related thereto, to access the credit and capital markets to obtain financing needed to satisfy their obligations to EOG;

· EOG's ability to access the commercial paper market and other credit and capital markets to obtain financing on terms it deems acceptable, if at all, and to otherwise satisfy its capital expenditure requirements;

· the extent and effect of any hedging activities engaged in by EOG;

· the timing and extent of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, inflation rates, global and domestic financial market conditions and global and domestic general economic conditions;

· political developments around the world, including in the areas in which EOG operates;

· the use of competing energy sources and the development of alternative energy sources;

· the extent to which EOG incurs uninsured losses and liabilities or losses and liabilities in excess of its insurance coverage;

· acts of war and terrorism and responses to these acts; and

· the other factors described under Item 1A, "Risk Factors," on pages 15 through 23 of EOG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events anticipated by EOG's forward-looking statements may not occur, and, if any of such events do, we may not have anticipated the timing of their occurrence or the extent of their impact on our actual results.  Accordingly, you should not place any undue reliance on any of EOG's forward-looking statements. EOG's forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and EOG undertakes no obligation, other than as required by applicable law, to update or revise its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events, anticipated or unanticipated circumstances or otherwise.

EOG Resources, Inc. (EOG) has sand mining operations in Texas and Wisconsin, which support EOG's exploration and development operations.  EOG's sand mining operations are subject to regulation by the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine Act).  MSHA inspects mining facilities on a regular basis and issues citations and orders when it believes a violation has occurred under the Mine Act.

EOG was the operator of the following sand mining facilities during the quarter ended June 30, 2012:

· Hood County Sand Pit - Hood County, TX (MSHA ID 41-04696);

· Rawhide Sand Plant - Hood County, TX (MSHA ID 41-04777); and

· Chippewa Falls Sand Plant - Chippewa County, WI (MSHA ID 47-03624).

__________

During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, EOG did not receive any of the following from MSHA: (i) a citation for a violation of a mandatory health or safety standard that could significantly and substantially contribute to the cause and effect of a mine safety or health hazard under Section 104 of the Mine Act; (ii) an order issued under Section 104(b) of the Mine Act; (iii) a citation or order for unwarrantable failure to comply with mandatory health or safety standards under Section 104(d) of the Mine Act; (iv) written notice of a flagrant violation under Section 110(b)(2) of the Mine Act; (v) an imminent danger order issued under Section 107(a) of the Mine Act; (vi) any proposed assessments under the Mine Act; (vii) written notice of a pattern of violations of mandatory health or safety standards that are of such nature as could have significantly and substantially contributed to the cause and effect of mine health or safety hazards under Section 104(e) of the Mine Act; or (viii) written notice of the potential to have such a pattern.  Moreover, during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, EOG did not experience a mining-related fatality.

In addition, as of June 30, 2012, EOG did not have any legal action pending before the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission (Mine Commission), and did not have any legal actions instituted or resolved before the Mine Commission during the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

CHANGE OF CONTROL AGREEMENT

This Change of Control Agreement ("Agreement") between EOG Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Michael P. Donaldson (the "Employee") is effective as of this 3rd day of May, 2012 (the "Effective Date").  Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 21.

WITNESSETH:

Whereas, the Company considers it to be in the best interests of its stockholders to encourage the continued employment of certain key employees of the Company notwithstanding the possibility, threat or occurrence of a Change of Control of the Company; and

Whereas, the Employee is a key employee of the Company; and

Whereas, the Company believes that the possibility of the occurrence of a Change of Control of the Company may result in the termination by the Employee of the Employee's employment by the Company or in the distraction of the Employee from the performance of Employee's duties to the Company, in either case to the detriment of the Company and its stockholders; and

Whereas, the Company recognizes that the Employee could suffer adverse financial and professional consequences if a Change of Control of the Company were to occur; and

Whereas, the Company wishes to continue to protect the Employee if a Change of Control of the Company occurs, thereby encouraging the Employee to remain in the employ of the Company and not to be distracted from the performance of Employee's duties to the Company by the possibility of a Change of Control of the Company; and

Now, Therefore, the parties agree as follows:

SECTION 1.                         OTHER EMPLOYMENT ARRANGEMENTS.

(a)      This Agreement does not affect the Employee's existing or future employment arrangements with the Company unless a Change of Control of the Company shall have occurred before the expiration of the term of this Agreement.  The Employee's employment with the Company shall continue to be governed by the Employee's existing or future employment agreements with the Company, if any, or, in the absence of any employment agreement, shall continue to be at the will of the Company, except that if a Change of Control of the Company shall have occurred before the expiration of the term of this Agreement and the Employee's employment with the Company is terminated (whether by the Employee or the Company or automatically as provided in Section 3) after the occurrence of that Change of Control of the Company, then the Employee shall be entitled to receive certain benefits as provided in this Agreement.

(b)      Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit the Employee's continuing or future participation in any plan, program, policy or practice of or provided by the Company or any of its Affiliates and for which the Employee may qualify, nor shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as the Employee may have under any contract or agreement with the Company or any of its Affiliates.  Amounts which are vested benefits or which the Employee is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, program, policy or practice of or provided by, or any contract or agreement with, the Company or any of its Affiliates at or subsequent to the date of termination of the Employee's employment with the Company shall be payable or otherwise provided in accordance with such plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement except as explicitly modified by this Agreement.

SECTION 2.                         CHANGE OF CONTROL OF THE COMPANY.

A "Change of Control of the Company" shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events:

(a)      The acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") (an "Exchange Act Person") of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d‑3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the "Outstanding Company Common Stock") or the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the "Outstanding Company Voting Securities"); provided, however, that, for purposes of this clause (a), the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of Control of the Company:  (i) any acquisition directly from the Company, (ii) any acquisition by the Company, (iii) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Affiliated Company, (iv) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction that complies with subclauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of clause (c) of this Section 2 or (v) an acquisition by a Qualified Institutional Investor, but only for so long as such investor remains a Qualified Institutional Investor;

(b)      Individuals who, as of May 3, 2005, constitute the Board of Directors (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to May 3, 2005, whose election, or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of an Exchange Act Person other than the Board of Directors;

(c)      Consummation of a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the acquisition of the assets or stock of another entity (a "Business Combination"), in each case, unless, following such Business Combination, (i) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities that were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and the Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 60% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, a corporation that, as a result of such transaction, owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company's assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and the Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (ii) no Exchange Act Person (excluding any corporation resulting from such Business Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such corporation resulting from such Business Combination) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of, respectively, the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination or the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of such corporation, except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination, and (iii) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement or of the action of the Board of Directors providing for such Business Combination; or

(d)      Approval by the stockholdersof the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if (i) the Employee's employment with the Company is terminated, or (ii) an event occurs which, had it occurred after a Change of Control of the Company, would with proper notice from Employee constitute an Event of Termination for Good Reason, and if it is reasonably demonstrated by the Employee that such action (A) was taken at the request of a third party that has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change of Control of the Company or (B) otherwise arose in connection with or anticipation of a Change of Control of the Company, then for all purposes of this Agreement, such Change of Control of the Company shall be deemed to have occurred on the date immediately prior to the date of such termination or event.

SECTION 3.                    TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT.

The term of this Agreement shall begin on the Effective Date and shall expire on the first to occur of:

(a)      the Employee's death, the Employee's Disability or the Employee's Retirement, which events shall also be deemed automatically to terminate the Employee's employment by the Company; or

(b)      the termination by the Employee or the Company of the Employee's employment by the Company.

The expiration of the term of this Agreement shall not terminate this Agreement itself or affect the right of the Employee or the Employee's legal representatives to enforce the payment of any amount or other benefit to which the Employee was entitled before the expiration of the term of this Agreement or to which the Employee became entitled as a result of the event that caused the term of this Agreement to expire.

SECTION 4.                    EVENT OF TERMINATION FOR CAUSE.

(a)      An "Event of Termination for Cause" shall mean the Employee's (i) conviction of a felony involving moral turpitude (which, through lapse of time or otherwise, is not subject to appeal), (ii) willful refusal without proper legal cause to perform employee's duties and responsibilities which remains uncorrected for thirty (30) days following written notice to the Employee by the Company of such event, or (iii) willfully engaging in conduct which the Employee has, or reasonably should have, reason to know is materially injurious to the Company.

(b)      For purposes of this Section 4, no act, or failure to act, on the part of the Employee shall be considered "willful" unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Employee in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Employee's action or omission was in the best interests of the Company.  Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors or upon the instructions of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or a senior officer of the Company or based upon the advice of counsel for the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Employee in good faith and in the best interests of the Company.

(c)      The cessation of employment of the Employee as a result of the alleged occurrence of an event referred to in clause (ii) or (iii) of the definition of "Event of Termination for Cause" shall not be deemed to be as a result of an Event of Termination for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Employee a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the entire membership of the Board of Directors (excluding the Employee, if the Employee is a member of the Board of Directors) at a meeting of the Board of Directors called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to the Employee and the Employee is given an opportunity, together with counsel for the Employee, to be heard before the Board of Directors), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors, the Employee is guilty of the conduct described in clause (ii) or (iii) of such definition and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.  Any determination of the Board of Directors under this clause (c) shall not be binding on the Employee, shall not be conclusive as to whether an Event of Termination for Cause has occurred, and shall not affect Employee's right to contest whether an Event of Termination for Cause has occurred.

SECTION 5.                    EVENT OF TERMINATION FOR GOOD REASON.

An "Event of Termination for Good Reason" shall mean, after a Change of Control of the Company, the occurrence of any of the following events, provided Employee serves written notice of termination in connection with or based upon any such event within 90 days of the Employee's knowledge of the occurrence of such event:

(a)      a reduction in the Employee's authority and/or responsibilities (whether or not occurring solely as a result of the Company's ceasing to be a publicly traded entity); or

(b)      a reduction in Employee's Annual Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control of the Company or a reduction in Employee's target annual bonus as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control of the Company, or the failure to continue the Employee's full participation in any employee benefit plan or program (unless replaced by a substantially comparable plan or program) in which Employee is eligible to participate immediately prior to the Change of Control of the Company (other than as a result of the normal expiration of such plan or program), in each case other than as a part of a general program to reduce compensation or benefits on a proportional basis relative to all other employees of the Company; or

(c)      a relocation of the Employee's primary place of work to a location more than 50 miles away from the Employee's primary place of work immediately prior to the Change of Control of the Company (provided, however, this clause (c) shall no longer apply to an employee after he has accepted any such relocation after a Change of Control of the Company has occurred and the above referenced 90 day period has passed), or

(d)      the failure of the Company to obtain the assumption in writing of its obligation to perform this Agreement by any successor to the Company prior to a merger, consolidation, sale or similar transaction.

For the avoidance of doubt, any action referred to in clause (a), (b), (c) or (d) above shall constitute an Event of Termination for Good Reason under the foregoing definition regardless of whether the Company is permitted to take such action under any employment contract with the Employee.

SECTION 6.                    NOTICE OF TERMINATION.

If a Change of Control of the Company shall have occurred before the expiration of the term of this Agreement, any termination by the Employee or the Company of the Employee's employment by the Company, or any determination of the Employee's Disability, that occurs within two years of such Change of Control shall be communicated by notice to the other party that shall indicate the specific paragraph of Section 7 pursuant to which the Employee is to receive benefits as a result of the termination.  If the notice states that the Employee's employment by the Company has been automatically terminated as a result of the Employee's Disability, the notice shall specifically describe the basis for the determination of the Employee's Disability and shall state the date of the determination of the Employee's Disability, which date shall be not more than ten days before the date such notice is given.  If the notice is from the Company and states that the Employee's employment by the Company is terminated by the Company as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Termination for Cause, the notice shall specifically describe the action or inaction of the Employee that the Company believes constitutes an Event of Termination for Cause, and in the case of a termination under clause (ii) or (iii) of the definition of Event of Termination for Cause, shall include the resolution of the Board of Directors referred to in Section 4(c).  If the notice is from the Employee and states that the Employee's employment by the Company is terminated by the Employee as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Termination for Good Reason, the notice shall specifically describe the action or inaction of the Company that the Employee believes constitutes an Event of Termination for Good Reason.  Each notice given pursuant to this Section 6 (other than a notice stating that the Employee's employment by the Company has been automatically terminated as a result of the Employee's Disability) shall state a date, which shall be not fewer than 30 days nor more than 60 days after the date such notice is given, on which the termination of the Employee's employment by the Company is effective.  The date so stated in accordance with this Section 6 shall be the "Termination Date".  If a Change of Control of the Company shall have occurred before the expiration of the term of this Agreement, any subsequent purported termination by the Company of the Employee's employment by the Company, or any subsequent purported determination by the Company of the Employee's Disability, within two years of such Change of Control shall be ineffective unless that termination or determination shall have been communicated by the Company to the Employee by notice that meets the requirements of the foregoing provisions of this Section 6 and the provisions of Section 9.

SECTION 7.                    BENEFITS PAYABLE ON CHANGE OF CONTROL AND TERMINATION.

If a Change of Control of the Company shall have occurred before the expiration of the term of this Agreement, and the Employee's employment by the Company is terminated (whether by the Employee or the Company or automatically as provided in Section 3) within two years after the occurrence of that Change of Control of the Company, the Employee shall be entitled to the following benefits:

(a)      If the Employee's employment by the Company is terminated by the Company as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Termination for Cause, or by the Employee before the occurrence of an Event of Termination for Good Reason, then the Company shall pay to the Employee the Base Salary accrued through the Termination Date but not previously paid to the Employee, and the Employee shall be entitled to any other amounts or benefits provided under any plan, policy, practice, program, contract or arrangement of or with the Company, which shall be governed by the terms thereof (except as explicitly modified by this Agreement).

(b)      If the Employee's employment by the Company is automatically terminated as a result of the Employee's death, the Employee's Disability or the Employee's Retirement, then the Company shall pay to the Employee the Base Salary accrued through the date of the occurrence of that event but not previously paid to the Employee, and the Employee shall be entitled to any other amounts or benefits provided under any plan, policy, practice, program, contract or arrangement of or with the Company, which shall be governed by the terms thereof (except as explicitly modified by this Agreement).

(c)      If the Employee's employment by the Company is terminated (x) by the Company, other than as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Termination for Cause, or (y) by the Employee after the occurrence of an Event of Termination for Good Reason, then the Employee shall be entitled to the following:

(i)      the Company shall pay to the Employee the Base Salary and compensation for earned but unused vacation time accrued through the Termination Date but not previously paid to the Employee;

(ii)      the Company shall pay to the Employee, as a lump sum, an amount  equal to the total of the following amounts:

(A)      2.99 times the amount of the Employee's Annual Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control (or if increased, immediately prior to the Termination Date); plus

(B)      two (2) times the amount of the Employee's target annual bonus as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control (or if no target annual bonus for the year in which the Change of Control occurs has been set, the target annual bonus for the immediately prior year) (or if increased, immediately prior to the Termination Date); plus

(C)      the amount of the Money Purchase Pension Plan contributions that would have been made by the Company on behalf of the Employee if the Employee had continued to be employed by the Company at the Employee's Annual Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control  (or if increased, immediately prior to the Termination Date) for three years following the Termination Date; and plus

(D)      the amount that would have been paid on behalf of the Employee as matching amounts to the Company's Savings Plan if the Employee had continued to be employed by the Company at the Employee's Annual Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control (or if increased, immediately prior to the Termination Date) for three years following the Termination Date and had continued to contribute to the Company's Savings Plan during such three year period at the Employee's then current contribution level.

(iii)      the Company shall arrange for the Employee's uninterrupted participation for three (3) years after the Termination Date in the Company's major medical/dental insurance plan, which participation shall cease upon Employee's eligibility for participation in a major medical/dental insurance plan of another employer;

(iv)      the Company shall cause the Employee to receive three (3) years age and service credit for eligibility for the Company's retiree medical insurance coverage; and

(v)      the Company shall provide outplacement services at a cost not to exceed $50,000.00.

Each payment required to be made to the Employee pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 7 shall be made by check drawn on an account of the Company at a bank located in the United States of America (unless the Employee has elected to have salary payments deposited directly by the Company to a bank account maintained by the Employee, in which event the Company shall make a direct deposit of the payment to that account), and shall be paid (x) if the Employee's employment by the Company was terminated as a result of the Employee's death, the Employee's Disability or the Employee's Retirement, not more than 30 days immediately following the date of the occurrence of that event, and (y) if the Employee's employment by the Company was terminated for any other reason, not more than ten days immediately following the Termination Date.

SECTION 8.                    SUCCESSORS.

If a Change of Control of the Company shall have occurred before the expiration of the term of this Agreement,

(a)      the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, consolidate with, merge into or sell or otherwise transfer its assets as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to, any person, or permit any person to consolidate with or merge into the Company, unless immediately after such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, the Successor shall have assumed in writing the Company's obligations under this Agreement and agreed to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place; and

(b)      not fewer than ten days before the consummation of any consolidation of the Company with, merger by the Company into, or sale or other transfer by the Company of its assets as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to, any person, the Company shall give the Employee notice of that proposed transaction.

SECTION 9.                    NOTICE.

Notices required or permitted to be given by either party pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered personally to the other party or when deposited with the United States Postal Service as certified or registered mail with postage prepaid and addressed:

(a)      if to the Employee, at the Employee's address last shown on the Company's records, and

(b)      if to the Company, at 1111 Bagby, Sky Lobby 2, Houston, Texas 77002, directed to the attention of the Company's Chairman of the Board,

or, in either case, to such other address as the party to whom such notice is to be given shall have specified by notice given to the other party.

SECTION 10.                    WITHHOLDING TAXES.

The Company may withhold from all payments to be paid to the Employee pursuant to this Agreement all taxes that, by applicable federal or state law, the Company is required to so withhold.

SECTION 11.                    U.S. EXCISE TAXES.

If any payment or right accruing to the Employee from the Company or an Affiliate under this Agreement without the application of this Section 11 ("Total Payments"), would constitute a "parachute payment" (as defined in Section 280G of the Code (as defined in Section 20) and regulations thereunder), the severance benefit payable under this Agreement shall be reduced to the largest amount that will result in no portion of the amounts payable or rights accruing being subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code or being disallowed as a deduction under Section 280G of the Code.  The determination of whether any reduction in the severance benefit payable is to apply shall be made by a public accounting firm chosen by the Company, at the expense of the Company.  Such determination shall be made in good faith after consultation with the Employee and shall be conclusive and binding on the Employee.  The Employee shall cooperate in good faith with said accounting firm in making such determination and providing the necessary information for this purpose.  The foregoing provisions of this Section 11 shall apply only if after reduction for any applicable federal excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code and federal, state or local income or employment taxes, the Total Payments accruing to the Employee would be less than the amount of the Total Payments as reduced under the foregoing provisions of this Section 11 and after reduction for only federal, state or local income or employment taxes.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement agree that this Section 11 explicitly modifies the U.S. Excise Tax treatment of benefits which may be payable or otherwise provided under any plan, program, policy, or practice of the Company or an Affiliate and any agreement or understanding that the Employee may have with the Company or an Affiliate.

SECTION 12.                    EXPENSES OF ENFORCEMENT.

The Company agrees to pay as incurred (within ten days following the Company's receipt of an invoice from the Employee), to the full extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses that the Employee may reasonably incur as a result of any contest (regardless of the outcome thereof) by the Company, the Employee or others of the validity, interpretation or enforceability of, or liability under, any provision of this Agreement (including as a result of any contest by the Employee about the amount of any payment pursuant to this Agreement), plus, in each case, interest on any delayed payment at the applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code.

SECTION 13.                    EMPLOYMENT BY WHOLLY OWNED ENTITIES.

If, at or after the Effective Date, the Employee is or becomes an employee of one or more corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies or other entities that are, directly or indirectly, wholly owned by the Company, references in this Agreement to the Employee's employment by the Company shall include the Employee's employment by any such wholly owned entity.

SECTION 14.                    NO OBLIGATION TO MITIGATE; NO RIGHTS OF OFFSET.

(a)      The Employee shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment or other benefit required to be paid to the Employee pursuant to this Agreement, whether by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any such payment or other benefit be reduced on account of any compensation earned or benefits received by the Employee as a result of employment by another person.

(b)      The Company's obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may have against the Employee or others.

SECTION 15.                    AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

NONEMPLOYEE DIRECTOR RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

Grantee:  [NAME]

Congratulations! You have been granted an Award of EOG Resources, Inc. Restricted Stock Units as follows:

Date of Grant:	[GRANT DATE]
Vesting Period:	12 Months from the Date of Grant
Restricted Stock Units awarded under this Grant:	[# UNITS]

This Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (this "Agreement" or this "Award" or "Grant") is governed by the terms and conditions of the EOG Resources, Inc. 2008 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (as amended, the "Plan"), which is hereby made a part of this Agreement.  A copy of the Plan is available upon request to the Human Resources Department of EOG Resources, Inc. (the "Company").  All capitalized terms that are not defined in this Agreement have the meanings ascribed to them under the Plan.Under the terms of this Agreement and the Plan, a Restricted Stock Unit ledger account will be maintained by the Company until you become vested in the Restricted Stock Units.  You will have no voting rights with respect to the Company common stock represented by such Restricted Stock Units until such time as the common stock is issued to you.

The Company, pursuant to the Plan, hereby grants to you, the above-named Grantee, effective as of the Date of Grant set forth above, a Restricted Stock Unit Grant in accordance with the terms set forth below.

Assuming your continuous membership on the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company, this Award shall vest on [One year anniversary of grant date].  Unless you elect otherwise, the shares of Company common stock represented by the Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder that have vested in accordance with the terms hereunder shall be issued to you on the first business day following the date of vesting (or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter).   Following issuance, you may sell or otherwise dispose of thirty-five percent (35%) of the shares issued hereunder to cover any tax obligation you may incur as a result of the vesting, but you must hold sixty-five percent (65%) of the shares issued hereunder until you no longer serve as a member of the Board.

Except as provided below, if your membership on the Board does not continue until [One year anniversary of grant date], this Award shall terminate and all Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder shall be forfeited and canceled.  If your membership on the Board terminates due to disability or death on or before [One year anniversary of grant date], all forfeiture restrictions on the Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder shall lapse and all shares of common stock represented by the Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder shall be distributed to you, your estate, or the person who acquires this Grant by will or the laws of descent and distribution, as applicable, as soon as administratively practicable following your date of termination or death.  As used herein, "disability" shall mean the inability to perform the duties and services as a Director of the Company by reason of a medically determinable physical or mental impairment supported by medical evidence which in the opinion of the Board can be expected to result in death or which can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months.  Upon a Change in Control of the Company (as described in Article XIII of the Plan) on or before [One year anniversary of grant date], all forfeiture restrictions on the Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder shall lapse and all shares of common stock represented by the Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder shall be distributed to you as soon as administratively practicable following the effective date of the Change in Control of the Company.  If your membership on the Board terminates because you do not stand for re-election, or are not re-elected, to the Board at the following Annual Meeting of Stockholders, or your resignation from the Board pursuant to Section 10 (or a successor section) of the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines is accepted, all forfeiture restrictions on the Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder shall lapse and all shares of common stock represented by the Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder shall be distributed to you as soon as administratively practicable following the expiration of your term as a director. If you are removed from the Board for cause on or before [One year anniversary of grant date], this Award shall terminate and all Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder shall be forfeited and canceled.  For purposes of this Agreement, "cause" shall mean gross negligence or willful misconduct in performance of duties of a Director, or final conviction of a felony or of a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and contingent on you remaining on the Board until [One year anniversary of grant date], if you have elected for your Restricted Stock Units, upon vesting, to be treated as "phantom" shares in accordance with the terms of the EOG Resources, Inc. 409A Deferred Compensation Plan, as amended (the "Deferral Plan"), then this Grant shall, from the date that is 12 months from the Date of Grant, be governed by the terms of the Deferral Plan and this Agreement, and you will have no voting rights with respect to the Company common stock represented by such "phantom" shares until such time as shares of common stock are issued to you in accordance with the Deferral Plan.

By accepting the terms of this Agreement, you consent to the electronic delivery of documents related to your current or future participation in the Plan (including the Plan documents; this Agreement; any other prospectus or other documents describing the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Grant; and the Company's then-most recent annual report to stockholders, Annual Report on Form 10-K and definitive proxy statement), and you acknowledge that such electronic delivery may be made by the Company, in its sole discretion, by one or more of the following methods: (i) the posting of such documents on the Company's intranet website; (ii) the posting of such documents on the UBS Financial Services, Inc. website; (iii) the delivery of such documents via the UBS Financial Services, Inc. website; (iv) the posting of such documents to another Company intranet website or third party internet website accessible by you; or (v) delivery via electronic mail, by attaching such documents to such electronic email and/or including a link to such documents on a Company intranet website or third party internet website accessible by you.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, you also acknowledge that the Company may, in its sole discretion (and as an alternative to, or in addition to, electronic delivery) deliver a paper copy of any such documents to you.  You further acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost to you by contacting the Company (Attention: Human Resources Department) by telephone or in writing.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

General.  The consolidated financial statements of EOG Resources, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively, EOG), included herein have been prepared by management without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  Accordingly, they reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial results for the interim periods presented.  Certain information and notes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  However, management believes that the disclosures included either on the face of the financial statements or in these notes are sufficient to make the interim information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in EOG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed on February 24, 2012 (EOG's 2011 Annual Report).

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards.In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-04, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820):  Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs."  ASU 2011-04 amends the Fair Value Measurement Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) to clarify the FASB's intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements and change certain principles or requirements for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements.  ASU 2011-04 became effective for interim and annual fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material impact on EOG's financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, "Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income."  ASU 2011-05 is intended to increase the prominence of comprehensive income in the financial statements by requiring that an entity that reports items of comprehensive income do so in either one continuous or two consecutive financial statements.  ASU 2011-05 also requires separate presentation on the face of the financial statements for items reclassified from other comprehensive income into net income.  Subsequently, in December 2011, the FASB deferred the effective date of the provisions of ASU 2011-05 relating to the presentation of reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The provisions of ASU 2011-05 not deferred by the FASB became effective for interim and annual fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  Retroactive application is required.  The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have a material impact on EOG's financial statements.

(1) Consists of costs related to an outside operated, offshore Central North Sea project in the United Kingdom (U.K.) ($20 million) and a shale project in the Horn River area of British Columbia, Canada (B.C.) ($6 million).  In the Central North Sea Columbus project, during the second quarter of 2012, a revised commercial arrangement for transportation and an updated project schedule necessitated the filing of a revised field development plan with the U.K. Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC). The revised plan is expected to be submitted during the third quarter of 2012.  DECC approval of the revised plan is expected during the first quarter of 2013.  In the B.C. shale project, EOG drilled seven wells in the first half of 2012 to retain land and further evaluate the project.  The related well completion activities for the B.C. shale project are not expected to commence until 2013 or later.

As more fully discussed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in EOG's 2011 Annual Report, EOG maintains various stock-based compensation plans.  Stock-based compensation expense is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income based upon the job function of the employee receiving the grants as follows (in millions):

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The EOG Resources, Inc. 2008 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan, as amended (2008 Plan), provides for grants of stock options, stock-settled stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards.  At June 30, 2012, approximately 5.0 million common shares remained available for grant under the 2008 Plan.  EOG's policy is to issue shares related to the 2008 Plan from previously authorized unissued shares or treasury shares to the extent treasury shares are available.

Stock Options and Stock-Settled Stock Appreciation Rights and Employee Stock Purchase Plan.  The fair value of stock option and SAR grants is estimated using the Hull-White II binomial option pricing model.  The fair value of all Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) grants is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model.  Stock-based compensation expense related to stock option, SAR and ESPP grants totaled $10.5 million during both the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and $21.3 million and $19.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Weighted average fair values and valuation assumptions used to value stock option, SAR and ESPP grants during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

	Stock Options/SARs						ESPP
	Six Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
	2012			2011			2012			2011
Weighted Average Fair Value of Grants	$	35.65		$	36.57		$	28.24		$	21.55
Expected Volatility		39.97	%		37.13	%		46.42	%		30.26	%
Risk-Free Interest Rate		0.49	%		1.12	%		0.06	%		0.18	%
Dividend Yield		0.7	%		0.6	%		0.6	%		0.6	%
Expected Life	5.5 yrs			5.4 yrs			0.5 yrs			0.5 yrs

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Expected volatility is based on an equal weighting of historical volatility and implied volatility from traded options in EOG's common stock.  The risk-free interest rate is based upon United States Treasury yields in effect at the time of grant.  The expected life is based upon historical experience and contractual terms of stock option, SAR and ESPP grants.

Risk Management Activities [Text Block]

12.  Risk Management Activities

Commodity Price Risk.  As more fully discussed in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in EOG's 2011 Annual Report, EOG engages in price risk management activities from time to time.  These activities are intended to manage EOG's exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices for crude oil and natural gas.  EOG utilizes financial commodity derivative instruments, primarily price swap, collar, option and basis swap contracts, as a means to manage this price risk.  In addition to financial transactions, from time to time EOG is a party to various physical commodity contracts for the sale of hydrocarbons that cover varying periods of time and have varying pricing provisions.  These physical commodity contracts qualify for the normal purchases and normal sales exception and, therefore, are not subject to hedge accounting or mark-to-market accounting.  The financial impact of physical commodity contracts is included in revenues at the time of settlement, which in turn affects average realized hydrocarbon prices.

Commodity Derivative Contracts.  Presented below is a comprehensive summary of EOG's crude oil derivative contracts at June 30, 2012, with notional volumes expressed in barrels per day (Bbld) and prices expressed in dollars per barrel ($/Bbl).

Crude Oil Derivative Contracts
			Weighted
	Volume		Average Price
	(Bbld)		($/Bbl)
2012(1)
January 1, 2012 through February 29, 2012 (closed)		34,000	$	104.95
March 1, 2012 through June 30, 2012 (closed)		52,000		105.80
July 1, 2012 through August 31, 2012		50,000		106.90
September 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012		32,000		106.61

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

(1) EOG has entered into crude oil derivative contracts which give counterparties the option to extend certain current derivative contracts for an additional six-month period.  Options covering a notional volume of 18,000 Bbld are exercisable on August 31, 2012.  If the counterparties exercise all such options, the notional volume of EOG's existing crude oil derivative contracts will increase by 18,000 Bbld at an average price of $107.42 per barrel for the period September 1, 2012 through February 28, 2013.  Options covering a notional volume of 15,000 Bbld are exercisable on December 31, 2012.  If the counterparties exercise all such options, the notional volume of EOG's existing crude oil derivative contracts will increase by 15,000 Bbld at an average price of $110.03 per barrel for the period from January 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013.

Presented below is a comprehensive summary of EOG's natural gas derivative contracts at June 30, 2012, with notional volumes expressed in million British thermal units (MMBtu) per day (MMBtud) and prices expressed in dollars per MMBtu ($/MMBtu).

Natural Gas Derivative Contracts

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

(1) EOG has entered into natural gas derivative contracts which give counterparties the option of entering into derivative contracts at future dates.  Such options are exercisable monthly up until the settlement date of each monthly contract.  If the counterparties exercise all such options, the notional volume of EOG's existing natural gas derivative contracts will increase by 425,000 MMBtud at an average price of $5.44 per MMBtu for the period from August 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012.

(2) EOG has entered into natural gas derivative contracts which give counterparties the option of entering into derivative contracts at future dates.  Such options are exercisable monthly up until the settlement date of each monthly contract.  If the counterparties exercise all such options, the notional volume of EOG's existing natural gas derivative contracts will increase by 150,000 MMBtud at an average price of $4.79 per MMBtu for each month of 2013 and 2014.

Subsequent to June 30, 2012, EOG settled its natural gas financial price swap contracts for the period January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014 and received proceeds of $36.6 million.  Options associated with the settled 2014 price swap contracts remain in place.  An updated summary of EOG's natural gas financial price swap contracts as of August 2, 2012 is presented in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Capital Resources and Liquidity - Commodity Derivative Transactions."

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Derivative.  EOG is party to a foreign currency aggregate swap with multiple banks to eliminate any exchange rate impacts that may result from the $150 million principal amount of notes issued by one of EOG's Canadian subsidiaries.  EOG accounts for the foreign currency swap using the hedge accounting method.  Changes in the fair value of the foreign currency swap do not impact Net Income.  The after-tax net impact from the foreign currency swap resulted in a reduction in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) of $1 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and an increase of $1 million and a reduction of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Interest Rate Derivative.  EOG is a party to an interest rate swap with a counterparty bank.  The interest rate swap was entered into in order to mitigate EOG's exposure to volatility in interest rates related to EOG's $350 million principal amount of Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2014.  The interest rate swap has a notional amount of $350 million.  EOG accounts for the interest rate swap using the hedge accounting method.  Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap do not impact Net Income.  The after-tax net impact from the interest rate swap resulted in an increase in OCI of $0.1 million and a reduction of $4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and a reduction of $0.2 million and $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

EOG RESOURCES, INC.NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Concluded)(Unaudited)

The following table sets forth the amounts, on a gross basis, and classification of EOG's outstanding financial derivative instruments at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.  Certain amounts may be presented on a net basis in the consolidated financial statements when such amounts are with the same counterparty and subject to a master netting arrangement (in millions):

Interest rate swap - Noncurrent portion	Other Liabilities	$	4	$	3

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 

Credit Risk.  Notional contract amounts are used to express the magnitude of commodity price, foreign currency and interest rate swap agreements.  The amounts potentially subject to credit risk, in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties, are equal to the fair value of such contracts (see Note 11).  EOG evaluates its exposure to significant counterparties on an ongoing basis, including those arising from physical and financial transactions.  In some instances, EOG requires collateral, parent guarantees or letters of credit to minimize credit risk.

All of EOG's outstanding derivative instruments are covered by International Swap Dealers Association Master Agreements (ISDAs) with counterparties.  The ISDAs may contain provisions that require EOG, if it is the party in a net liability position, to post collateral when the amount of the net liability exceeds the threshold level specified for EOG's then-current credit ratings.  In addition, the ISDAs may also provide that as a result of certain circumstances, including certain events that cause EOG's credit rating to become materially weaker than its then-current ratings, the counterparty may require all outstanding derivatives under the ISDAs to be settled immediately.  See Note 11 for the aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments that are in a net liability position at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.  EOG had no collateral posted at either June 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011 and held collateral of $100 million and $67 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

(1) Consists of costs related to an outside operated, offshore Central North Sea project in the United Kingdom (U.K.) ($20 million) and a shale project in the Horn River area of British Columbia, Canada (B.C.) ($6 million).  In the Central North Sea Columbus project, during the second quarter of 2012, a revised commercial arrangement for transportation and an updated project schedule necessitated the filing of a revised field development plan with the U.K. Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC). The revised plan is expected to be submitted during the third quarter of 2012.  DECC approval of the revised plan is expected during the first quarter of 2013.  In the B.C. shale project, EOG drilled seven wells in the first half of 2012 to retain land and further evaluate the project.  The related well completion activities for the B.C. shale project are not expected to commence until 2013 or later.

Long-Term Debt and Common Stock [Text Block]

10.  Long-Term Debt and Common Stock

Long-Term Debt.  During the six months ended June 30, 2012, EOG utilized commercial paper and short-term borrowings from uncommitted credit facilities, bearing market interest rates, for various corporate financing purposes.  EOG had no outstanding borrowings from commercial paper issuances or uncommitted credit facilities at June 30, 2012.  The average of the borrowings outstanding under the commercial paper program and uncommitted credit facilities was $240 million and $82 thousand, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2012.  The weighted average interest rates for commercial paper and uncommitted credit facility borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were 0.44% and 0.70%, respectively.

EOG currently has a $2.0 billion unsecured Revolving Credit Agreement (Agreement) with domestic and foreign lenders.  The Agreement matures on October 11, 2016 and includes an option for EOG to extend, on up to two occasions, the term for successive one-year periods, subject to, among certain other terms and conditions, the consent of the banks holding greater than 50% of the commitments then outstanding under the Agreement.  At June 30, 2012, there were no borrowings or letters of credit outstanding under the Agreement.  Advances under the Agreement accrue interest based, at EOG's option, on either the London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin (Eurodollar rate), or the base rate (as defined in the Agreement) plus an applicable margin.  At June 30, 2012, the Eurodollar rate and applicable base rate, had there been any amounts borrowed under the Agreement, would have been 1.12% and 3.25%, respectively.

Common Stock.  On February 16, 2012, EOG's Board of Directors increased the quarterly cash dividend on the Common Stock from the previous $0.16 per share to $0.17 per share, effective with the dividend paid on April 30, 2012 to stockholders of record as of April 16, 2012.

11.  Fair Value Measurements

As more fully discussed in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in EOG's 2011 Annual Report, certain of EOG's financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are reported at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The following table provides fair value measurement information within the fair value hierarchy for certain of EOG's financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (in millions):

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The estimated fair value of crude oil and natural gas derivative contracts (including options/swaptions) and the interest rate swap contracts was based upon forward commodity price and interest rate curves based on quoted market prices.  The estimated fair value of the foreign currency rate swap was based upon forward currency rates.  Swaps were valued using market prices and discount rates from an independent third-party provider of financial market data.  The Black 76 Model was utilized in valuing options.

The initial measurement of asset retirement obligations at fair value is calculated using discounted cash flow techniques and based on estimates of future retirement costs associated with property, plant and equipment.  Significant Level 3 inputs used in the calculation of asset retirement obligations include plugging costs and reserve lives.  A reconciliation of EOG's asset retirement obligations is presented in Note 6.

EOG RESOURCES, INC.NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)(Unaudited)

Proved oil and gas properties and other property, plant and equipment with a carrying amount of $178 million were written down to their fair value of $82 million, resulting in a pretax impairment charge of $96 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  Included in the $96 million pretax impairment charge is a $60 million impairment of proved oil and gas properties and other property, plant and equipment, for which EOG utilized an accepted offer from a third-party as the basis for determining fair value.  Significant Level 3 assumptions associated with the calculation of discounted cash flows used in the impairment analysis include EOG's estimate of future crude oil and natural gas prices, production costs, development expenditures, anticipated production of proved reserves, appropriate risk-adjusted discount rates and other relevant data.

Fair Value of Debt.At both June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, EOG had outstanding $5,040 million aggregate principal amount of debt, which had estimated fair values of approximately $5,735 million and $5,657 million, respectively.  The estimated fair value of debt was based upon quoted market prices and, where such prices were not available, other observable (Level 2) inputs regarding interest rates available to EOG at the end of each respective period.
