Oil Search Annual Profit Falls 8%

Oil Search Ltd. said its annual net profit fell by 8% as lower realized prices for its oil and natural gas more than offset record output from its flagship export project in Papua New Guinea.

Oil Search reported a net profit of US$312.4 million for the 12 months through December compared with US$341.2 million a year earlier.

Oil Search expects to produce between 27.5 million and 29.5 million barrels of oil equivalent this year.

In 2019, Oil Search pumped 27.95 million barrels of oil equivalent from its assets. That was 11% more than the 25.2 million barrels produced in the previous year.
