| In the current environment, this pace of activity has delivered exceptional results, and we expect to deliver more of the same |
| We have observed double-digit increases in oil and BOE productivity per well due to improved targeting and our consistent package development |
| We beat our volume targets and reached a production milestone, exiting the year producing more than 1 million barrels of oil equivalent per day |
| And we want to thank our shareholders for their support, and special thanks to our employees for delivering another exceptional quarter |
| This new plant and gathering system is expected to provide material savings over the life of our Delaware Basin asset and reliability and flow assurance in the most active oil play in the U.S |
| 2023 was a year of record production and outstanding financial performance, and it's not a one-off year |
| So I really want to point more to that than just we're positioned is what I'll tell you, Arun, we're very well positioned that we can meet that |
| So we're actually very excited and want to be very helpful from that startup of that facility just because that's a major increase of demand that we're going to see that's going to help here within the U.S |
| EOG delivers reliable operating results that translate to consistent financial performance year after year through the cycle |
| We are excited about executing our 2024 plan |
| Capital discipline allows EOG to consistently achieve its free cash flow priorities and deliver on shareholder return commitments, positioning EOG as a compelling investment competitive with the S&P 500 |
| So that's a very specific direction for those infrastructure projects that continue to lower our cost in the plays for the company going forward and expand margins for a long, long period of time |
| Our multi-basin organic growth portfolio is a competitive advantage |
| We have superior in-house technical expertise that supports leading-edge well performance while minimizing well costs |
| We've had great efficiency gains and cost improvement |
| We've had great results in that Mowry target |
| We've gathered really good data |
| But from a natural gas standpoint and then the long-haul pipes from an EOG standpoint, we're very well positioned with over a BCF a day of residue takeaway that hits into what we think are some great markets along the Gulf Coast |
| More recently, we have invested in two new strategic infrastructure assets to lower the long-term cost bases of the company and enhance margins |
| Our employees embrace and embody EOG's unique culture and are the number one reason for EOG's success |
| Collaborative multidisciplinary teams drive innovation and sustain the cycle of continuous improvement and our technology leadership |
| Our company is decentralized and non-bureaucratic to allow decision-making in the field at the asset level, which truly differentiates EOG relative to our peers and is a lasting competitive advantage |
| This culture is what drove our successful results in 2023 and provides the foundation to continue to deliver in the future |
| And we've seen really good success |
| In the Powder River Basin, our team has continued to improve well productivity in the Mowry Formation |
| We've had an opportunity to test longer laterals over the last few years pretty much throughout our multi-basin portfolio, and all of them with good success |
| Since we began trading as an independent company in 1999, we have delivered a sustainable growing regular dividend |
| But I guess from all that, we still feel very confident that our previous estimates of being in that $5 finding cost range look very strong |
| So we're very pleased with that |
| We're very excited about that play, and the performance of the wells that we've tested across the play seem to continue to meet or beat our type curve |

| production declines on the other side of it |
| EOG's business has never been better, and our financial position has never been stronger |
| I mean, to start with, we already reduced our activity level at Dorado by reducing the rig activity |
| So they find themselves really undersupplied on the natural gas side for their domestic needs |
| Going forward with the gas market, this year definitely does look a little bit soft |
| It's one of the things that makes forecasting gas so difficult |
| We expect to see some deflation throughout the year, and our forecasting well cost to be down a low single-digit percentage compared to last year |
| First question on just going back to the macro, I think we've been surprised by the supply of natural gas from the U.S |
| And then also in there you have some [indiscernible] you can get caught into and have some issues |
| We see kind of a 10% to 15% drop in those support services such as coal tubing, wire line, cement and other such |
| And we expect to see that cost come down |
| So I do think we sit currently in what we'd say is a dislocated environment |
| And in the last decade or so, that's been decreasing |
| So we might never see sort of those huge levels of growth from the previous era |
| I do see that there is some additional Utica activity this year, but it looks like you're pulling back a little bit in the PRB, which maybe was a little bit kind of surprising to me |
| And then in the fourth quarter with volatility entering the sector, again, the continued multiple compression across industry and across EOG, we obviously stepped back into it |
| We've seen really multiples compressed across all of industry |
| It's one reason you've seen us last year and this year moderate activity, because we've captured a significant resource |
| I think really -- like I said, currently, we would consider ourselves in a dislocated environment |
| We don't want to destroy value either by running too fast |
