Total, outlook and objectives

London, September 24, 2012 – Chairman & CEO Christophe de Margerie today presents the financial community with Total’s outlook and objectives for the next few years and beyond. He outlines Total’s ability to deliver near-term profitable growth, provides examples of the Group’s new dynamic in action, and emphasizes the priority of creating value for shareholders and all stakeholders. The event is webcast live, and a replay can be accessed at www.total.com along with the presentation material.

Key messages include:

• Delivering near-term profitable growth: Total provides details to support its confidence in targeted production growth. Over 2011-15, this growth of approximately 3% per year on average is based on projects which are already either in production or under development. For 2017, based on its portfolio of high-quality projects, Total estimates production potential of circa 3 Mboe/d, noting that 70% of the new production needed to achieve this growth is already in production or under development. Total’s portfolio of Upstream start-ups for 2011-17 offers highly competitive returns, and it is strengthening Total’s position as an industry leader in deep offshore and LNG.

• New dynamic in action: The strategic vision articulated and set in motion by management last year is progressing. Total’s bold exploration program is focused on high-risk, high-reward prospects, and new acreage has added to the potential for giant discoveries. The ongoing restructuring of Refining & Chemicals is expected to provide an additional 650 M$ per year of net results by 2015 through improved efficiencies and synergies. In addition, Total introduces a 15-20 B$ asset sale program over 2012-14, reinforcing that active portfolio management is integrated into Total’s strategy.

• Creating value for shareholders: Free cash flow in 2012-14 will be enhanced by contributions from accretive start-ups, Downstream restructuring and the announced asset sale program. Accelerating free cash flow growth is expected during the 2015-17 period. Total’s strong balance sheet and well-managed gearing ratio provide additional financial flexibility to adapt to changes in the environment and capitalize on opportunities. At the end of 2Q12, Total announced an increase of 3.5% to its quarterly dividend. This dividend increase further demonstrates management’s confidence in the Group’s outlook.
