First quarter 2010 results

> Sales

In the first quarter 2010, the Brent oil price averaged 76.4 $/b, an increase of 72% compared to the first quarter 2009 and 3% compared to the fourth quarter 2009. The European refining margin indicator (ERMI) averaged 29.5 $/t in the first quarter 2010, a slight decrease from the first quarter 2009, but a sharp increase compared to the very weak fourth quarter 2009 average of 11.7 $/t. Chemicals benefited from an improved environment, particularly the Specialty chemicals, which benefited from a rebound in demand compared to the first quarter 2009.

The euro-dollar exchange rate averaged 1.38 $/€ in the first quarter 2010 compared to 1.30 $/€ in the first quarter 2009 and 1.48 $/€ in the fourth quarter 2009.

In this environment, sales were €37,603 million, an increase of 25% compared to the first quarter 2009.

> Net income (Group share)

Reported net income (Group share) was €2,613 million in the first quarter 2010 compared to €2,290 million in the first quarter 2009. The after-tax inventory effect had a positive impact on net income (Group share) of €344 million in the first quarter 2010 and a positive impact of €327 million in the first quarter 2009, in each case due to the increase in oil prices. The Group’s equity share of adjustment items related to Sanofi-Aventis had a negative impact on net income (Group share) of €41 million in the first quarter 2010 and a negative impact of €63 million in the first quarter 2009. Special items had a positive impact on net income (Group share) of €14 million in the first quarter 2010 and a negative impact of €87 million in the first quarter 2009.

The Group did not buy back shares in the first quarter 2010.

Fully-diluted earnings per share, based on 2,242.7 million fully-diluted weighted-average shares, were €1.17 in the first quarter 2010 compared to €1.02 in the first quarter 2009, an increase of 14%.

> Investments – divestments1

Investments, excluding acquisitions and including net investments in equity affiliates and non-consolidated companies, were €2.4 billion in the first quarter 2010 compared to €2.7 billion in the first quarter 2009.

Acquisitions were €1.2 billion in the first quarter 2010, comprised essentially of interests in the Barnett Shale and the Laggan Tormore blocks.

Asset sales in the first quarter 2010 were €965 million, comprised essentially of Sanofi-Aventis shares.

Net investments2 were €2.7 billion in the first quarter 2010 compared to €2.5 billion in the first quarter 2009.

> Cash flow

Cash flow from operating activities was €5,260 million in the first quarter 2010, an increase of 32% compared to the first quarter 2009.

Net cash flow3 for the Group was €2,599 million compared to €1,531 million in the first quarter 2009, an increase of 70%.

The net-debt-to-equity ratio was 21.5% on March 31, 2010 compared to 26.6% on December 31, 2009 and 19.1% on March 31, 2009.4

 

 

Analysis of business segment results

The financial information for each business segment is reported on the same basis as that used internally by the chief operating decision maker in assessing segment performance and the allocation of segment resources. Due to their particular nature or significance, certain transactions qualified as “special items” are excluded from the business segment figures. In general, special items relate to transactions that are significant, infrequent or unusual. However, in certain instances, certain transactions such as restructuring costs or asset disposals, which are not considered to be representative of the normal course of business, may be qualified as special items although they may have occurred in prior years or are likely to recur in following years.

In accordance with IAS 2, the Group values inventories of petroleum products in the financial statements according to the FIFO (First-In, First-Out) method and other inventories using the weighted-average cost method. Under the FIFO method, inventories are valued at the last acquisition or production cost. In volatile energy markets, this can have a significant distorting effect on reported income. Accordingly, the segment measure of profitability for the Downstream and Chemicals segments is based on a replacement cost method in order to exclude the impact of oil price changes on the replacement of inventories, as management believes such measure reflects more accurately the operating performance of these segments. In the replacement cost method, which is conceptually close to the LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) method, the variation of inventory values in the statement of income is, depending on the nature of the inventory, determined using either the month-end prices differential between one period and another or the average prices of the period. The inventory valuation effect is the difference between the results according to the FIFO method and this replacement cost method. When the replacement cost is higher than the cost of the oldest articles in the inventories (i.e., positive inventory valuation effect), a provision for oil price changes in the adjusted results is established and affects operating expenses. When the replacement cost is lower than the cost of the oldest articles in the inventories (i.e., negative inventory valuation effect), the provision for oil price changes is reversed.

The Group also adjusts for its equity share of adjustment items related to Sanofi-Aventis.

The adjusted business segment results (adjusted operating income and adjusted net operating income) are defined as replacement cost results adjusted for special items. For further information on the adjustments affecting operating income on a segment-by-segment basis, and for a reconciliation of segment figures to figures reported in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, see pages 18 to 21 of this exhibit.

The Group measures performance at the segment level on the basis of net operating income and adjusted net operating income. Net operating income comprises operating income of the relevant segment after deducting the amortization and the depreciation of intangible assets other than leasehold rights, translation adjustments and gains or losses on the sale of assets, as well as all other income and expenses related to capital employed (dividends from non-consolidated companies, income from equity affiliates, capitalized interest expenses), and after income taxes applicable to the above. The income and expenses not included in net operating income but included in net income are interest expenses related to net financial debt only, after applicable income taxes (net cost of net debt and minority interests). Adjusted net operating income excludes the effect of the adjustments (special items, the inventory valuation effect and Sanofi-Aventis related items) described above.

TOTAL’s average realized hydrocarbons price increased by 43% compared to the first quarter 2009. This reflects a 79% increase in the average realized liquids price, which was greater than the increase in the Brent price, and a 15% decrease in the average realized natural gas price, due to the lag effect in certain gas contract price formulas and portfolio mix effects.

In the first quarter 2010, hydrocarbon production was 2,427 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (kboe/d), an increase of 4.5% compared to the first quarter 2009, essentially as a result of:

 

   

+6% for production ramp-ups on new fields, net of the normal decline,

 

   

+1% for lower OPEC reductions and an improvement in gas demand,

 

   

+1% for lower levels of disruptions in Nigeria related to security issues,

 

   

-3.5% for the price effect5.

The impacts on production from changes in the portfolio offset one another between the two quarters.

The “price effect” refers to the impact of changing hydrocarbon prices on entitlement volumes.

Adjusted net operating income for the Upstream segment was €1,971 million in the first quarter 2010 compared to €1,482 million in the first quarter 2009, an increase of 33%, reflecting the impacts of higher oil and gas prices and, to a lesser extent, the increase in production.

Adjusted net operating income for the Upstream segment excludes special items. The exclusion of special items had a positive impact on Upstream adjusted net operating income of €76 million in the first quarter 2010 and a positive impact of €21 million in the first quarter 2009.

The effective tax rate for the Upstream segment was 60% compared to 58% in the first quarter 2009, reflecting mainly the impact of higher oil prices and portfolio mix effects. The effective tax rate for the Upstream segment was 58% in the fourth quarter 2009.

The return on average capital employed (ROACE6) for the Upstream segment for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010 was 18%, unchanged from the full year 2009. The annualized first quarter 2010 ROACE for the Upstream segment was 20%.

Refinery throughput decreased by 11% compared to the first quarter 2009, mainly due to the shutdown of the Dunkirk refinery and a distillation unit at the Normandy refinery. Compared to the fourth quarter 2009, the 3% throughput decrease was mainly due to unscheduled maintenance at certain refineries and the impacts of strikes during the first quarter 2010.

The utilization rates based on crude throughput and based on the throughput of crude and other feedstock were 73% and 77%, respectively, in the first quarter 2010 compared to 81% and 86% in the first quarter 2009 and 75% and 79% in the fourth quarter 2009.

The European refinery indicator averaged 29.5 $/t over the quarter, a decrease of 3% compared to the first quarter.

Adjusted net operating income from the Downstream segment was €155 million in the first quarter 2010, a decrease of 74% compared to the first quarter 2009, reflecting less favorable conditions for supply optimization and marketing as well as the lower throughput level for the Group’s refineries.

Adjusted net operating income for the Downstream segment excludes any after-tax inventory valuation effect and special items. The exclusion of the inventory valuation effect had a negative impact on Downstream adjusted net operating income of €272 million in the first quarter 2010 and a negative impact of €246 million in the first quarter 2009. The exclusion of special items had a positive impact on Downstream adjusted net operating income of €39 million in the first quarter 2010 and a positive impact of €71 million in the first quarter 2009.

The ROACE for the Downstream segment for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010 was 4% compared to 7% for the full year 2009. The annualized first quarter 2010 ROACE for the Downstream segment was 4%.

The adjusted net operating income for the Chemicals segment was €157 million, including €117 million from the Specialty chemicals sector, which benefited from higher demand in all of its markets compared to the first quarter 2009 as well as from its cost reduction efforts.

Adjusted net operating income for the Chemicals segment excludes any after-tax inventory valuation effect and special items. The exclusion of the inventory valuation effect had a negative impact on the Chemicals segment’s adjusted net operating income of €75 million in the first quarter 2010 and a negative impact of €80 million in the first quarter 2009. The exclusion of special items had no impact on the Chemicals segment’s adjusted net operating income in the first quarter 2010 and a positive impact of €8 million in the first quarter 2009.

The ROACE for the Chemicals segment for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010 was 6% compared to 4% for the full year 2009. The annualized first quarter 2010 ROACE for the Chemicals segment was 9%.

 

 

Summary and outlook

Pending approval at the Annual Shareholders Meeting on May 21, 2010, TOTAL S.A. will pay on June 1, 2010, the remaining €1.14 per share7 of the 2009 dividend, which is equal in amount to the interim dividend paid in November 2009. The full-year 2009 dividend is a total of €2.28 per share.

In the Upstream segment, the production growth observed over the past quarters is expected to continue in 2010, fueled by the ramp-up of projects started in 2009 and the start-up of the second Yemen LNG train in April this year. To strengthen production growth in the medium term, the Group is pursuing the development of diversified and major projects, including Pazflor in Angola, Usan in Nigeria, Kashagan in Kazakhstan, and, since the beginning of this year, Surmont Phase 2 in Canada and Laggan-Tormore in the UK North Sea. The official launch of the CLOV project in Angola, already approved internally by TOTAL, is expected very soon. In the framework of its strategy to access new resources, TOTAL is pursuing an ongoing exploration program and evaluating opportunities for partnerships that leverage its operational and technical expertise.

In the Downstream segment, TOTAL is strengthening its competitiveness by adapting its portfolio to changes in the market.

In the Chemicals segment, the Group is benefiting from the ramp up of petrochemicals production at its new ethane cracker in Qatar and from its Specialty chemicals units that are well positioned for the economic recovery.

Since the start of the second quarter 2010, the price of Brent has risen and stabilized around $85 per barrel, but refining margins have fallen relative to the first quarter level. The environment for the Chemicals segment is progressively improving.

You should understand that various factors, certain of which are discussed elsewhere in this document and in the documents referred to in, or incorporated by reference into, this document, could affect the future results of TOTAL and could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements, including:

 

 

material adverse changes in general economic conditions or in the markets served by TOTAL, including changes in the prices of oil, natural gas, refined products, petrochemical products and other chemicals;

 

 

changes in currency exchange rates and currency devaluations;

 

 

the success and the economic efficiency of oil and natural gas exploration, development and production programs, including without limitation, those that are not controlled and/or operated by TOTAL;

 

 

uncertainties about estimates of changes in proven and potential reserves and the capabilities of production facilities;

 

 

uncertainties about the ability to control unit costs in exploration, production, refining and marketing (including refining margins) and chemicals;

 

 

changes in the current capital expenditure plans of TOTAL;

 

 

the ability of TOTAL to realize anticipated cost savings, synergies and operating efficiencies;

 

 

the financial resources of competitors;

 

 

changes in laws and regulations, including tax and environmental laws and industrial safety regulations;

 

 

the quality of future opportunities that may be presented to or pursued by TOTAL;

changes in the political environment that adversely affect exploration, production licenses and contractual rights or impose minimum drilling obligations, price controls, nationalization or expropriation, and regulation of refining and marketing, chemicals and power generating activities;

 

 

the possibility that other unpredictable events such as labor disputes or industrial accidents will adversely affect the business of TOTAL; and

 

 

the risk that TOTAL will inadequately hedge the price of crude oil or finished products.

  * European Refining Margin Indicator (ERMI) is an indicator intended to represent the margin after variable costs for a hypothetical complex refinery located around Rotterdam in Northern Europe that processes a mix of crude oil and other inputs commonly supplied to this region to produce and market the main refined products at prevailing prices in this region. The indicator margin may not be representative of the actual margins achieved by Total in any period because of Total’s particular refinery configurations, product mix effects or other company-specific operating conditions. TRCV was the indicator margin reported in previous quarters in the interim updates. For information, TRCV is 19.3 $/t for first quarter 2010.
  ** 1 $/t = 0.136 $/b.

TOTAL

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE FIRST THREE MONTHS OF 2010

(unaudited)

 

1) Accounting policies

The interim consolidated financial statements of TOTAL S.A. and its subsidiaries (the Group) as of March 31, 2010 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”. The accounting policies applied for the consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2010 do not differ significantly from those applied for the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2009 which have been prepared on the basis of IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) as adopted by the European Union and IFRS as issued by the IASB (International Accounting Standard Board). The new accounting standards and amendments mandatory for the annual period beginning January 1, 2010 are described in Note 1W to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2009 and have no material effect on the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the first three months of 2010.

Among these new standards or interpretations effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010, the revised versions of IFRS 3 “Business Combinations” and IAS 27 “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements” should be noted. These revised standards introduce new provisions regarding the accounting for business combinations. Their application is prospective.

In addition, as of January 1, 2010, jointly-controlled entities are consolidated under the equity method, as provided for in the alternative method of IAS 31 “Interests in Joint Ventures”. Until December 31, 2009, these entities were consolidated under the proportionate consolidation method. This change involves two entities and has been applied prospectively, as the impact is not material.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and apply assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of preparation of the financial statements and reported income and expenses for the period. Management reviews these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, by reference to past experience and various other factors considered as reasonable which form the basis for assessing the carrying amount of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates, if different assumptions or circumstances apply. These judgments and estimates relate principally to the application of the successful efforts method for the oil and gas accounting, the valuation of long-lived assets, the provisions for asset retirement obligations and environmental remediation, the pensions and post-retirement benefits and the income tax computation. These estimates and assumptions are described in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2009.

Lastly, when the accounting treatment of a specific transaction is not addressed by any accounting standard or interpretation, management applies its judgment to define and apply accounting policies that will lead to relevant and reliable information, so that the financial statements:

 

   

give a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows;

 

   

reflect the substance of transactions;

 

   

are neutral;

 

   

are prepared on a prudent basis;

 

   

are complete in all material aspects.

Pursuant to the accrual basis of accounting followed by the Group, the financial statements reflect the effects of transactions and other events when they occur. Assets and liabilities such as property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are usually measured at amortized cost. Financial assets and liabilities are usually measured at fair value.

 

22


2) Changes in the Group structure, main acquisitions and divestments

During the first three months of 2010, TOTAL progressively sold 1.23% of Sanofi-Aventis’ share capital, thus reducing its interest to 6.16%. Sanofi-Aventis is accounted for by the equity method in TOTAL’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

3) Adjustment items

Financial information by business segment is reported in accordance with the internal reporting system and shows internal segment information that is used to manage and measure the performance of TOTAL.

Performance indicators excluding the adjustment items, such as adjusted operating income, adjusted net operating income, and adjusted net income are meant to facilitate the analysis of the financial performance and the comparison of income between periods.

Adjustment items include:

 

(i) Special items

Due to their unusual nature or particular significance, certain transactions qualified as “special items” are excluded from the business segment figures. In general, special items relate to transactions that are significant, infrequent or unusual. However, in some instances, transactions such as restructuring costs or asset disposals, which are not considered to be representative of the normal course of business, may be qualified as special items although they may have occurred within prior years or are likely to occur again within the coming years.

 

(ii) Inventory valuation effect

The adjusted results of the Downstream and Chemicals segments are presented according to the replacement cost method. This method is used to assess the segments’ performance and facilitate the comparability of the segments’ performance with those of its competitors.

In the replacement cost method, which approximates the LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) method, the variation of inventory values in the statement of income is, depending on the nature of the inventory, determined using either the month-end prices differential between one period and another or the average prices of the period. The inventory valuation effect is the difference between the results according to FIFO (First-In, First-Out) and the replacement cost.

 

(iii) TOTAL’s equity share of adjustment items reconciling “Business net income” and Net income attributable to equity holders of Sanofi-Aventis

The adjusted results (adjusted operating income, adjusted net operating income, adjusted net income) are defined as replacement cost results, adjusted for special items, and excluding TOTAL’s equity share of adjustment items related to Sanofi-Aventis.

The detail of the adjustment items is presented in the table below.

5) Non-current financial debt

The Group issued bonds through its subsidiary Total Capital during the first three months of 2010:

 

   

Bond 6.000% 2010-2015 (100 million AUD)

 

   

Bond 2.875% 2010-2015 (250 million USD)

Bond 3.750% 2006-2010 (100 million EUR)

 

   

Bond 3.750% 2006-2010 (50 million EUR)

 

   

Bond 3.750% 2006-2010 (50 million EUR)

In the context of its active cash management, the Group may temporarily increase its current borrowings, particularly in the form of commercial paper. The changes in current borrowings, cash and cash equivalents and current financial assets resulting from this cash management in the quarterly financial statements are not necessarily representative of a longer-term position.

 

6) Related parties

7) Other risks and contingent liabilities

TOTAL is not currently aware of any event, litigation, risks or contingent liabilities that could have a material impact on the assets and liabilities, results, financial position or operations of the Group.

Antitrust investigations

 

1.

Following investigations into certain commercial practices in the chemicals industry in the United States, some subsidiaries of the Arkema( 1) group have been involved in criminal investigations, closed as of today, and civil liability lawsuits in the United States for violations of antitrust laws. TOTAL S.A. has been named in certain of these suits as the parent company.

In Europe, the European Commission commenced investigations in 2000, 2003 and 2004 into alleged anti-competitive practices involving certain products sold by Arkema. In January 2005, under one of these investigations, the European Commission fined Arkema €13.5 million and jointly fined Arkema and Elf Aquitaine €45 million. The appeal from Arkema and Elf Aquitaine before the Court of First Instance of the European Union has been rejected on September 30, 2009. A recourse before the Court of Justice of the European Communities has been filed.

The Commission notified Arkema, TOTAL S.A. and Elf Aquitaine of complaints concerning two other product lines in January and August 2005, respectively. Arkema has cooperated with the authorities in these procedures and investigations. In May 2006, the European Commission fined Arkema €78.7 million and €219.1 million, as a result of, respectively, each of these two proceedings. Elf Aquitaine was held jointly and severally liable for, respectively, €65.1 million and €181.35 million of these fines while TOTAL S.A. was held jointly and severally liable, respectively, for €42 million and €140.4 million. TOTAL S.A., Arkema and Elf Aquitaine have appealed these decisions to the Court of First Instance of the European Union.

Arkema and Elf Aquitaine received a statement of objections from the European Commission in August 2007 concerning alleged anti-competitive practices related to another line of chemical products. As a result, in June 2008, Arkema and Elf Aquitaine have been jointly and severally fined in an amount of €22.7 million and individually in an amount of €20.43 million for Arkema and €15.89 million for Elf Aquitaine. The companies concerned appealed this decision to the relevant European court.

Arkema and Elf Aquitaine received a statement of objections from the European Commission in March 2009 concerning alleged anti-competitive practices related to another line of chemical products. The decision has been rendered by the Commission in November 2009. The companies have been jointly and severally fined in an amount of €11 million and individually in an amount of €9.92 million for Arkema and €7.71 million for Elf Aquitaine. The concerned companies appealed this decision to the relevant European Court.

 

(1) Arkema is used in this section to designate those companies of the Arkema group whose ultimate parent company is Arkema S.A. Arkema became an independent company after being spun-off from Total S.A. in May 2006.

 

26


No facts have been alleged that would implicate TOTAL S.A. or Elf Aquitaine in the practices questioned in these proceedings, and the fines received are based solely on their status as parent companies.

Arkema began implementing compliance procedures in 2001 that are designed to prevent its employees from violating antitrust provisions. However, it is not possible to exclude the possibility that the relevant authorities could commence additional proceedings involving Arkema, as well as TOTAL S.A. and Elf Aquitaine.

 

2. As part of the agreement relating to the spin-off of Arkema, TOTAL S.A. or certain other Group companies agreed to grant Arkema guarantees for certain risks related to antitrust proceedings arising from events prior to the spin-off.

These guarantees cover, for a period of ten years that began in 2006, 90% of amounts paid by Arkema related to (i) fines imposed by European authorities or European member-states for competition law violations, (ii) fines imposed by U.S. courts or antitrust authorities for federal antitrust violations or violations of the competition laws of U.S. states, (iii) damages awarded in civil proceedings related to the government proceedings mentioned above, and (iv) certain costs related to these proceedings.

The guarantee covering the risks related to anticompetition violations in Europe applies to amounts above a €176.5 million threshold.

If one or more individuals or legal entities, acting alone or together, directly or indirectly holds more than one-third of the voting rights of Arkema, or if Arkema transfers more than 50% of its assets (as calculated under the enterprise valuation method, as of the date of the transfer) to a third party or parties acting together, irrespective of the type or number of transfers, these guarantees will become void.

On the other hand, the agreements provide that Arkema will indemnify TOTAL S.A. or any Group company for 10% of any amount that TOTAL S.A. or any Group company are required to pay under any of the proceedings covered by these guarantees.

 

3. The Group has recorded provisions amounting to €17 million in its consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2010 to cover the risks mentioned above.

 

4. Moreover, as a result of investigations started by the European Commission in October 2002 concerning certain Refining & Marketing subsidiaries of the Group, Total Nederland N.V. and TOTAL S.A. received a statement of objections in October 2004. These proceedings resulted, in September 2006, in Total Nederland N.V. being fined €20.25 million and in TOTAL S.A. as its parent company being held jointly responsible for €13.5 million of this amount, although no facts implicating TOTAL S.A. in the practices under investigation were alleged. TOTAL S.A. and Total Nederland N.V. have appealed this decision to the Court of First Instance of the European Union.

In addition, in May 2007, Total France and TOTAL S.A. received a statement of objections regarding alleged antitrust practices concerning another product line of the Refining & Marketing division. These proceedings resulted, in October 2008, in Total France being fined €128.2 million and in TOTAL S.A., as its parent company, being held jointly responsible although no facts implicating TOTAL S.A. in the practices under investigation were alleged. TOTAL S.A. and Total Raffinage Marketing (the new corporate name of Total France) have appealed this decision to the Court of First Instance of the European Union.

Furthermore, in July 2009, the French antitrust Authority sent to TotalGaz and Total Raffinage Marketing a statement of objections regarding alleged antitrust practices concerning another product line of the Refining & Marketing division.

 

5. Given the discretionary powers granted to antitrust Authorities for determining fines, it is not currently possible to determine with certainty the ultimate outcome of these investigations and proceedings. TOTAL S.A. and Elf Aquitaine are contesting their liability and the method of determining these fines. Although it is not possible to predict the outcome of these proceedings, the Group believes that they will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results.

Buncefield

On December 11, 2005, several explosions, followed by a major fire, occurred at an oil storage depot at Buncefield, north of London. This depot is operated by Hertfordshire Oil Storage Limited (HOSL), a company in which the British subsidiary of TOTAL holds 60% and another oil group holds 40%.

The explosion caused minor injuries to a number of people and caused property damage to the depot and the buildings and homes located nearby. The official Independent Investigation Board has indicated that the explosion was caused by the overflow of a tank at the depot. The Board’s final report was released on December 11, 2008. The civil procedure for claims, which had not yet been settled, took place between October and December 2008. The Court’s decision of March 20, 2009, declared the British subsidiary of TOTAL responsible for the accident and solely liable for indemnifying the victims. TOTAL’s British subsidiary has appealed this decision. The appeal trial took place in January 2010. The Court of Appeals, by a decision handed down on March 4, 2010, confirmed the prior judgment. TOTAL’s UK subsidiary filed an appeal before the Supreme Court with respect to both the extent and sharing of the liabilities incurred.

 

27


With respect to civil liability the provision recorded in the Group’s consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2010 amounts to €294 million after payments already completed.

The Group carries insurance for damage to its interests in these facilities, business interruption and civil liability claims from third parties. The residual amount to be received from insurers amounts to €128 million as of March 31, 2010.

The Group believes that, based on the information currently available, on a reasonable estimate of its liability and on provisions recognized, this accident should not have a significant impact on the Group’s financial situation or consolidated results.

On December 1, 2008, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and the Environment Agency (EA) issued a Notice of prosecution against five companies, including the British subsidiary of TOTAL. In November 2009, the British subsidiary of TOTAL, pleaded guilty to charges brought by the prosecution and intends to raise, into this framework, a number of elements expected to mitigate the impact of the charges brought against it.

Erika

Following the sinking in December 1999 of the Erika, a tanker that was transporting products belonging to one of the Group companies, the Tribunal de grande instance of Paris convicted TOTAL S.A. of marine pollution pursuant to a judgment issued on January 16, 2008, finding that TOTAL S.A. was negligent in its vetting procedure for vessel selection. TOTAL S.A. was fined € 375,000. The court also ordered compensation to be paid to the victims of pollution from the Erika up to an aggregate amount of €192 million, declaring TOTAL S.A. jointly and severally liable for such payments together with the Erika’s inspection and classification firm, the Erika’s owner and the Erika’s manager.

TOTAL has appealed the verdict of January 16, 2008. In the meantime, it has nevertheless proposed to pay third parties who so requested definitive compensation as determined by the court. To date, forty-one third parties have received compensation payments, representing an aggregate amount of €171.5 million.

By decision dated March 30, 2010, the Court of Appeal upheld the lower court judgment pursuant to which TOTAL S.A. was convicted of marine pollution and fined the Company €375,000. TOTAL S.A. filed an appeal in the French Supreme Court (Cour de cassation) in this respect.

On the other hand, the Court of Appeal ruled that TOTAL S.A. bears no civil liability according to the applicable international conventions.

TOTAL S.A. considers, according to the information currently available to it, that this case will not have a material impact on the Group’s financial situation or consolidated results.

10) Post-closing events

Filing of a public tender offer followed by a squeeze out for the shares issued by the company Elf Aquitaine

On March 24, 2010, TOTAL S.A. filed a public tender offer followed by a squeeze out with the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF) in order to buy the 1,468,725 Elf Aquitaine shares that it does not already hold, representing 0.52% of Elf Aquitaine’s share capital and 0.27% of its voting rights, at a price of €305 per share (including the remaining 2009 dividend). On April 13, 2010, the French Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) issued its clearance decision for this offer.

The public tender offer was open from April 16 to April 29, 2010 included. The Elf Aquitaine shares targeted by the offer which have not been tendered to the offer will be transferred to TOTAL S.A. under the squeeze out upon payment to the shareholders equal to the offer price on the first trading day after the offer closing date, i.e. on April 30, 2010.

After the squeeze out, TOTAL S.A. will hold all Elf Aquitaine shares either directly or indirectly.

In application of revised standard IAS 27 “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements”, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2010, transactions with minority interests are accounted for as equity transactions, i.e. in consolidated shareholder’s equity.

As a consequence, following the acquisition of all Elf Aquitaine shares by TOTAL S.A., the difference between the consideration paid and the book value of minority interests acquired will be recognized directly as a decrease in equity. Given the terms of the tender offer and of the squeeze out, this operation will have no material effect on the Group’s consolidated shareholder’s equity.

Sale of Mapa Spontex

TOTAL closed on April 1, 2010 the sale of its consumer specialty chemicals business, Mapa Spontex, to U.S.-based Jarden Corporation for €335 million.

Mapa Spontex is a global manufacturer and distributor of baby care and home care products, with leading positions in Europe, Brazil and Argentina. Its portfolio includes baby bottles and nipples, sold primarily under the NUK®, Tigex®, Lillo®, Fiona® and First Essentials® brands, as well as sponges, rubber gloves and cleaning products, sold primarily under the Mapa® and Spontex® brands.

Sale of interests in the Valhall and Hod fields to BP

TOTAL signed in the course of April 2010 an agreement for the sale of its interests in the Valhall (15.72%) and Hod (25%) fields, in the Norwegian North Sea, to BP. This transaction, amounting to $991 million, is subject to partners’ consent and approval by relevant authorities in the upcoming weeks.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Inauguration of world’s largest ethane cracker in Ras Laffan, Qatar

On May 4, 2010, TOTAL S.A. (“TOTAL”) announced the inauguration of the world’s largest olefin cracker based on ethane in Ras Laffan, Qatar. With a production capacity of 1.3 million tons of ethylene per year, the Ras Laffan Olefin Cracker (RLOC) will feed the new Qatofin polyethylene plant inaugurated in Mesaieed last November. Total Petrochemicals, through its participations in Qapco and Qatofin, joint ventures with Qatar Petroleum, holds 22.2% of RLOC. The other partners are Qatar Petroleum and Chevron Phillips Chemical Company.

The ethane feedstock used in the Ras Laffan cracker comes from the North Field, a giant offshore gas field in which TOTAL holds interests through the Dolphin and Qatargas I and II projects. The natural gas (methane) is treated for export in the liquefaction plants also based in Ras Laffan and the associated ethane produced at Dolphin will be used by the Ras Laffan cracker as raw material for the petrochemical industry.

Closing of the public tender offer and processing of the squeeze out for the shares issued by the company Elf Aquitaine

On April 30, 2010, TOTAL announced the closing of the public tender offer (the “Offer”) and processing of the squeeze out for the shares issued by the company Elf Aquitaine.

The Offer was made exclusively in France. The Offer was not subject to registration or visa outside France. Holders of Elf Aquitaine shares located outside France could not participate in the Offer, except if the laws and regulations of the jurisdiction to which such holders were subject allowed such participation. Participation in the Offer and the distribution of materials regarding the Offer may be subject to restrictions outside France. The Offer was not directed at persons who were subject to such restrictions, neither directly, nor indirectly, and could not be accepted in any manner by a holder located in a country where the Offer was subject to such restrictions.

For regulatory reasons, access to information regarding the Offer is restricted.

On April 27, 2010, TOTAL announced the signing of an agreement for the sale of its interests in the Valhall (15.72%) and Hod (25%) fields, in the Norwegian North Sea, to BP. This transaction, amounting to $991 million, is subject to partners’ consent and approval by relevant authorities in the upcoming weeks.

Located 285 kilometers off the Norwegian coast in a water depth of 70 meters, Valhall was discovered in 1975 and started producing in 1982. This field reached an average equity production of approximately 8,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d) in 2009.

Hod, approximately 13 kilometers south of Valhall, was discovered in 1974. Production started in 1990 and reached an average equity production of about 1,000 boe/d in 2009.

TOTAL is a leading North Sea oil and gas industry investor and operator. The sale of these non-strategic interests is part of the Group’s ongoing optimization of its upstream assets.

Angola: Two new oil discoveries on deep offshore Block 15/06

TOTAL announced on April 7, 2010, that its subsidiary, TEPA (Block 15/06), Limited, and its partners have made two important oil discoveries in Angola at the Nzanza-1 and Cinguvu-1 wells, in the deep waters of the Angolan offshore.

Nzanza-1 and Cinguvu-1 wells, located in Block 15/06 some 350 kilometers North-West of Luanda, were drilled in a water depth of 1,400 meters. They reached a total depth of respectively 3,008 meters and 3,023 meters. Both wells encountered oil pay in sands of Lower Miocene age with good reservoir characteristics.

During production tests, Nzanza-1 well produced an 18° API oil at rates above 1,600 barrels per day (b/d). An analysis of the results indicates a potential for future production wells in excess of 5,000 b/d per well, when associated to artificial lift. At the Cinguvu-1 well, the production test, limited by surface facilities, reached a flow of 6,400 b/d of a 23° API oil.

After the Sangos-1 and N’Goma-1 discoveries in 2008 and Cabaça Norte-1 in 2009, these new discoveries confirm the potential of Block 15/06 in Angola.

TEPA (Block 15/06), Limited, holds a 15% interest in the Block 15/06, operated by Eni.

These two recent discoveries, together with the former ones at Ngoma-1 and Sangos-1, all located in the northwestern part of the permit, are being evaluated in view of the proceeding with a first development hub in Block 15/06.

Yemen LNG Starts Second Natural Gas Liquefaction Train

TOTAL announced on April 2, 2010, that the second train of the Yemen LNG natural gas liquefaction plant has started production. Combined with liquefied natural gas (LNG) production from the first train, commissioned on October 15, 2009, it is expected to enable the Yemen LNG plant to reach its full capacity.

Facts and figures about the Yemen LNG project:

 

   

A $4.5 billion investment, the biggest ever made in Yemen.

 

   

A 320-kilometre gas pipeline carries feed gas from Block 18 in central Yemen’s Marib region to the Balhaf liquefaction plant on the country’s southern coast.

 

   

With the startup of the second train, total production capacity reaches 6.7 million tons of LNG per year, equal to a hundred cargos to be delivered each year over 25 years. Since the start-up of the first train, 18 cargos have already been delivered to South Korea, the United States, China, Spain and Mexico.

TOTAL is the main shareholder in Yemen LNG, with an interest of 39.62%, alongside state-owned Yemen Gas Company (16.73%), Hunt Oil Company (17.22%), SK Energy (9.55%), Korea Gas Corporation (6%), Hyundai Corporation (5.88%) and Yemen’s General Authority for Social Security and Pensions (GASSP, 5%).

France: TOTAL obtains the Montelimar permit to evaluate the gas shale potential of the area

On March 31, 2010, TOTAL announced having obtained the Montelimar Permit in France by ministerial decree dated as of March 1, 2010. This exploration permit, granted for a five-year period, covers a surface of 4,327 square kilometers that spans from the south of Valence to the region of Montpellier, in the south of France.

This permit, which will be operated by TOTAL, has been jointly attributed to TOTAL and to a subsidiary of the American group Devon. Devon having decided at the end of 2009 to focus its activities in North America, TOTAL also announced having acquired Devon’s French affiliate. Through this transaction, which is subject to ministerial approval, TOTAL will hold a 100% stake in the license.

With this new permit, and further to the acquisition of a 25% interest in Chesapeake’s permit in the Barnett Shale play in the United States at the end of 2009, TOTAL confirms its willingness to develop its activities in non-conventional gas.
