PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONT’D.)
HESS CORPORATION AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Presentation
The financial statements included in this report reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The unaudited results of operations for the interim periods reported are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
The financial statements were prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain notes or other financial information that are normally required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. These statements, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
2. Inventories
Inventories consisted of the following:
June 30,
2021
December 31,
2020
(In millions)
Crude oil and natural gas liquids
$
62
$
226
Materials and supplies
179
152
Total Inventories
$
241
$
378
At December 31, 2020, crude oil inventories included $
164
million associated with the cost of
4.2
million barrels of crude oil transported and stored on
two
chartered very large crude carriers (VLCCs) for sale in Asian markets. The
two
VLCC cargos were sold in the first quarter of 2021.
In the first quarter of 2020, we recognized charges of $
53
million ($
52
million after income taxes) in
Marketing, including purchased oil and gas
to reflect crude oil inventories at net realizable value.
3. Property, Plant and Equipment
Assets Held for Sale:
In March 2021, we entered into an agreement to sell our interests in Denmark for total consideration of $
150
million, with an effective date of January 1, 2021. At June 30, 2021, property, plant and equipment and operating lease right-of-use assets totaling $
228
million, and asset retirement obligations and operating lease liabilities totaling $
139
million, associated with our interests in Denmark were presented as
Assets held for sale
and as liabilities held for sale within
Accrued Liabilities
, respectively, in our C
onsolidated Balance Sheet
.
Dispositions:
In April 2021, we completed the sale of our Little Knife and Murphy Creek nonstrategic acreage interests in the Bakken for net cash consideration of $
297
million, after closing adjustments. The sale included approximately
78,700
net acres, which are located in the southernmost portion of the Corporation's Bakken position. The acreage constituted part of a larger amortization base and the sale was treated as a normal retirement. Accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized upon sale.
Capitalized Exploratory Well Costs:
The following table discloses the net changes in capitalized exploratory well costs pending determination of proved reserves during the six months ended June 30, 2021 (in millions):

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONT’D.)
HESS CORPORATION AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Capitalized exploratory well costs capitalized for greater than one year following completion of drilling were $
375
million at June 30, 2021 and primarily related to:
Guyana:
Approximately
85
% of the capitalized well costs in excess of one year relate to successful exploration wells where hydrocarbons were encountered on the Stabroek Block (Hess
30
%), offshore Guyana. The operator plans further appraisal drilling and is conducting pre-development planning for additional phases of development beyond the three previously sanctioned development projects on the Block.
Joint Development Area (JDA):
Approximately
10
% of the capitalized well costs in excess of one year relates to the JDA (Hess
50
%) in the Gulf of Thailand, where hydrocarbons were encountered in
three
successful exploration wells drilled in the western part of Block A-18. The operator has submitted a development plan concept to the regulator to facilitate ongoing commercial negotiations for an extension of the existing gas sales contract to include development of the western part of the Block.
Malaysia:
Approximately
5
% of the capitalized well costs in excess of one year relate to the North
Malay Basin (Hess
50
%), offshore Peninsular Malaysia, where hydrocarbons were encountered in
one
successful exploration well. Subsurface evaluation and pre-development studies are ongoing.
4. Hess Midstream LP
In March 2021, the Corporation received net proceeds of $
70
million from the public offering of
3,450,000
Hess-owned Class A shares in Hess Midstream LP. The transaction resulted in an increase in
Capital in Excess of Par
of $
56
million and
Noncontrolling Interests
of $
41
million including $
14
million from the change in ownership and $
27
million from the recognition of a deferred tax asset due to an increase in tax basis of Hess Midstream LP's investment in Hess Midstream Operations LP. After giving effect to this transaction, the Corporation owns an approximate
46
% interest in Hess Midstream LP, on a consolidated basis.
At June 30, 2021 Hess Midstream LP, a variable interest entity that is fully consolidated by Hess Corporation, had liabilities totaling $
1,945
million (December 31, 2020: $
2,026
million) that are on a nonrecourse basis to Hess Corporation, while Hess Midstream LP assets available to settle the obligations of Hess Midstream LP include cash and cash equivalents totaling $
4
million (December 31, 2020: $
3
million), property, plant and equipment with a carrying value of $
3,101
million (December 31, 2020: $

7. Impairment and Other
In June 2021, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court approved the bankruptcy plan for Fieldwood Energy LLC (Fieldwood) which includes transferring abandonment obligations of Fieldwood to predecessors in title of certain of its assets, who are jointly and severally liable for the obligations. Second quarter 2021 results include a charge of $
147
million ($
147
million after income taxes) in connection with total estimated abandonment obligations in the West Delta 79/86 Field (West Delta Field), which we sold to a Fieldwood predecessor in 2004. See

.
First quarter 2020 results include noncash impairment charges totaling $
2.1
billion ($
2.0
billion after income taxes) related to our oil and gas properties at North Malay Basin in Malaysia, the South Arne Field in Denmark, and the Stampede and Tubular Bells fields in the Gulf of Mexico, primarily as a result of a lower long-term crude oil price outlook. Other charges totaling $
21
million pre-tax ($

10. Guarantees and Contingencies
We are subject to loss contingencies with respect to various claims, lawsuits and other proceedings. A liability is recognized in our consolidated financial statements when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the risk of loss is probable, but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated or the risk of loss is only reasonably possible, a liability is not accrued; however, we disclose the nature of those contingencies. We cannot predict with certainty if, how or when existing claims, lawsuits and proceedings will be resolved or what the eventual relief, if any, may be, particularly for proceedings that are in their early stages of development or where plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages.
We, along with many companies that have been or continue to be engaged in refining and marketing of gasoline, have been a party to lawsuits and claims related to the use of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) in gasoline. A series of similar lawsuits, many involving water utilities or governmental entities, were filed in jurisdictions across the U.S. against producers of MTBE and petroleum refiners who produced gasoline containing MTBE, including us. The principal allegation in all cases was that gasoline containing MTBE was a defective product and that these producers and refiners are strictly liable in proportion to their share of the gasoline market for damage to groundwater resources and are required to take remedial action to ameliorate the alleged effects on the environment of releases of MTBE. The majority of the cases asserted against us have been settled. There are
three
remaining active cases, filed by Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Maryland. In June 2014, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania filed a lawsuit alleging that we and all major oil companies with operations in Pennsylvania, have damaged the groundwater by introducing thereto gasoline with MTBE. The Pennsylvania suit has been forwarded to the existing MTBE multidistrict litigation pending in the Southern District of New York. In September 2016, the State of Rhode Island also filed a lawsuit alleging that we and other major oil companies damaged the groundwater in Rhode Island by introducing thereto gasoline with MTBE. The suit filed in Rhode Island is proceeding in federal court. In December 2017, the State of Maryland filed a lawsuit alleging that we and other major oil companies damaged the groundwater in Maryland by introducing thereto gasoline with MTBE. The suit, filed in Maryland state court, was served on us in January 2018 and has been removed to federal court by the defendants.
In September 2003, we received a directive from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) to remediate contamination in the sediments of the Lower Passaic River. The NJDEP is also seeking natural resource damages. The directive, insofar as it affects us, relates to alleged releases from a petroleum bulk storage terminal in Newark, New Jersey we previously owned. We and over 70 companies entered into an Administrative Order on Consent with the EPA to study the same contamination; this work remains ongoing. We and other parties settled a cost recovery claim by the State of New Jersey and agreed with the EPA to fund remediation of a portion of the site. On March 4, 2016, the EPA issued a Record of Decision (ROD) in respect of the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River, selecting a remedy that includes bank-to-bank dredging at an estimated cost of $
1.38
billion. The ROD does not address the upper nine miles of the Lower Passaic River or the Newark Bay, which may require additional remedial action. In addition, the federal trustees for natural resources have begun a separate assessment of damages to natural resources in the Passaic River. Given that the EPA has not selected a final remedy for the entirety of the Lower Passaic River or the Newark Bay, total remedial costs cannot be reliably estimated at this time. Based on currently known facts and circumstances, we do not believe that this matter will result in a significant liability to us because our former terminal did not store or use contaminants which are of concern in the river sediments and could not have contributed contamination along the river’s length. Further, there are numerous other parties who we expect will bear the cost of remediation and damages.
In March 2014, we received an Administrative Order from the EPA requiring us and 26 other parties to undertake the Remedial Design for the remedy selected by the EPA for the Gowanus Canal Superfund Site in Brooklyn, New York. Our alleged liability derives from our former ownership and operation of a fuel oil terminal and connected shipbuilding and repair facility adjacent to the Canal. The remedy selected by the EPA includes dredging of surface sediments and the placement of a cap over the deeper sediments throughout the Canal and in-situ stabilization of certain contaminated sediments that will remain in place below the cap. The EPA’s original estimate was that this remedy would cost $
506
million; however, the ultimate costs that will be incurred in connection with the design and implementation of the remedy remain uncertain. We have complied with the EPA’s March 2014 Administrative Order
11
PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONT’D.)
HESS CORPORATION AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
and contributed funding for the Remedial Design based on an allocation of costs among the parties determined by a third-party expert. In January 2020, we received an additional Administrative Order from the EPA requiring us and several other parties to begin Remedial Action along the uppermost portion of the Canal. We intend to comply with this Administrative Order. The remediation work began in the fourth quarter of 2020. Based on currently known facts and circumstances, we do not believe that this matter will result in a significant liability to us, and the costs will continue to be allocated amongst the parties, as they were for the Remedial Design.
From time to time, we are involved in other judicial and administrative proceedings relating to environmental matters. We periodically receive notices from the EPA that we are a “potential responsible party” under the Superfund legislation with respect to various waste disposal sites. Under this legislation, all potentially responsible parties may be jointly and severally liable. For any site for which we have received such a notice, the EPA’s claims or assertions of liability against us relating to these sites have not been fully developed, or the EPA’s claims have been settled or a settlement is under consideration, in all cases for amounts that are not material. Beginning in 2017, certain states, municipalities and private associations in California, Delaware, Maryland, Rhode Island and South Carolina separately filed lawsuits against oil, gas and coal producers, including us, for alleged damages purportedly caused by climate change. These proceedings include claims for monetary damages and injunctive relief. Beginning in 2013, various parishes in Louisiana filed suit against approximately 100 oil and gas companies, including us, alleging that the companies’ operations and activities in certain fields violated the State and Local Coastal Resource Management Act of 1978, as amended, and caused contamination, subsidence and other environmental damages to land and water bodies located in the coastal zone of Louisiana. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, the payment of the costs necessary to clear, re-vegetate and otherwise restore the allegedly impacted areas. The ultimate impact of such climate and other aforementioned environmental proceedings, and of any related proceedings by private parties, on our business or accounts cannot be predicted at this time due to the large number of other potentially responsible parties and the speculative nature of clean-up cost estimates.
In August 2020, Fieldwood and related entities filed for bankruptcy relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Fieldwood’s Bankruptcy Plan, which was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in June 2021, includes the abandonment of certain assets, including seven offshore Gulf of Mexico leases and related facilities in the West Delta Field that were formerly owned by us and sold to a Fieldwood predecessor in 2004, and the discharge of Fieldwood’s obligation to decommission these facilities. As a result, in the next nine months, we expect to receive an Order from the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) requiring us to decommission the facilities on the seven West Delta leases. Our alleged decommissioning obligation derives from our former ownership of the facilities. We intend to comply with BSEE’s Order once we receive it. We also intend to seek contribution from other parties that owned an interest in the facilities. As of June 30, 2021, we accrued a loss contingency of $
147
million ($
147
million after income taxes) in connection with total estimated abandonment obligations in the West Delta Field. Potential recoveries from other parties that previously owned an interest in the West Delta Field have not been recognized as of June 30, 2021.
We are also involved in other judicial and administrative proceedings from time to time in addition to the matters described above, including claims related to post-production deductions from royalty payments. We may also be exposed to future decommissioning liabilities for divested assets in the event the current or future owners are determined to be unable to perform such actions, whether due to bankruptcy or otherwise. We cannot predict with certainty if, how or when such proceedings will be resolved or what the eventual relief, if any, may be, particularly for proceedings that are in their early stages of development or where plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages. Numerous issues may need to be resolved, including through potentially lengthy discovery and determination of important factual matters before a loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated for any proceeding.
Subject to the foregoing, in management’s opinion, based upon currently known facts and circumstances, the outcome of lawsuits, claims and proceedings, including the matters disclosed above, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, we could incur judgments, enter into settlements, or revise our opinion regarding the outcome of certain matters, and such developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the period in which the amounts are accrued and our cash flows in the period in which the amounts are paid.

12. Financial Risk Management Activities
In the normal course of our business, we are exposed to commodity risks related to changes in the prices of crude oil and natural gas. Financial risk management activities include transactions designed to reduce risk in the selling prices of crude oil or natural gas we produce or by reducing our exposure to foreign currency or interest rate movements. Generally, futures, swaps or option strategies may be used to fix the forward selling price or establish a floor price for a portion of our crude oil or natural gas production. Forward contracts may be used to purchase certain currencies in which we conduct business with the intent of reducing exposure to foreign currency fluctuations. At June 30, 2021, these forward contracts relate to the British Pound, Canadian Dollar and Malaysian Ringgit. Interest rate swaps may be used to convert interest payments on certain long-term debt from fixed to floating rates.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read together with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 included under Item 1. Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Overview
Hess Corporation is a global E&P company engaged in exploration, development, production, transportation, purchase and sale of crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas with production operations located primarily in the United States (U.S.), Guyana, the Malaysia/Thailand Joint Development Area (JDA), Malaysia, and Denmark. We conduct exploration activities primarily offshore Guyana, in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, and offshore Suriname and Canada. At the Stabroek Block (Hess 30%), offshore Guyana, we and our partners have discovered a significant resource base and are executing a multi-phased development of the Block. The Liza Phase 1 development achieved first production in December 2019, and has a nameplate production capacity of approximately 120,000 gross bopd. The Liza Phase 2 development was sanctioned in the second quarter of 2019 and remains on track to achieve first production by early 2022, with production capacity of approximately 220,000 gross bopd. A third development, Payara, was sanctioned in the third quarter of 2020 and is expected to achieve first production in 2024, with production capacity of approximately 220,000 gross bopd. A fourth development, Yellowtail, has been identified on the Stabroek Block with anticipated startup in 2025, pending government approvals and project sanctioning. The discovered resources to date on the Stabroek Block are expected to underpin up to ten floating production, storage and offloading vessels (FPSOs) with the first six FPSOs expected by 2027.
Our Midstream operating segment, which is comprised of Hess Corporation’s approximate 46% consolidated ownership interest in Hess Midstream LP at June 30, 2021, provides fee-based services, including gathering, compressing and processing natural gas and fractionating natural gas liquids (NGL); gathering, terminaling, loading and transporting crude oil and NGL; storing and terminaling propane, and water handling services primarily in the Bakken shale play in the Williston Basin area of North Dakota.
In July 2021, Hess Midstream LP announced that its subsidiary, HESM Opco, agreed to repurchase approximately 31 million HESM Opco Class B units held by Hess Corporation and Global Infrastructure Partners for approximately $750 million. We expect to receive net proceeds of approximately $375 million. After giving effect to this transaction, which is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2021, we will own an approximate 45% interest in Hess Midstream LP, on a consolidated basis. In August 2021, HESM Opco issued $750 million in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due 2030 in a private offering to finance the repurchase.
Hess Response to Global Pandemic
COVID-19 continues to have a profound impact on society and industry. The Corporation’s first priority in the midst of the pandemic has been the health and safety of the Hess workforce and local communities where the Corporation operates. A multidisciplinary Hess emergency response team has been overseeing plans and precautions to reduce the risks of COVID-19 in the work environment while maintaining business continuity based on the most current recommendations by government and public health agencies. The Corporation has implemented a variety of health and safety measures including enhanced cleaning procedures and modified work practices such as travel restrictions, health screenings, reduced personnel at offshore platforms and onshore work sites wherever this can be done safely, and remote working arrangements for office workers.
2021 Outlook
In July, we repaid $500 million principal amount of our $1 billion term loan, which matures in March 2023, and announced plans to add a third Bakken drilling rig in September 2021.
Our E&P capital and exploratory expenditure guidance for 2021 of approximately $1.9 billion remains unchanged, including the planned increase in Bakken rig count. Oil and gas production in 2021, excluding Libya, is now forecast to be approximately 295,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd). For the remainder of 2021, we have hedged 120,000 bopd with $55 WTI put options and 30,000 bopd with $60 Brent put options.
In the third quarter of 2021, we expect to receive approximately $375 million from HESM Opco related to its announced repurchase of approximately 31 million Class B units and proceeds from the sale of our interests in Denmark for total consideration of $150 million, with an effective date of January 1, 2021.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,376 million in the first six months of 2021, compared with $711 million in the first six months of 2020. Net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities was $1,474 million in the first six months of 2021 and $803 million in the first six months of 2020. Capital expenditures were $746 million in the first six months of 2021 and $1,173 million in the first six months of 2020. Excluding our Midstream segment, we ended the second
17
PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONT'D.)
Overview (continued)
quarter of 2021 with $2.42 billion in cash and cash equivalents. In 2021, based on current forward strip crude oil prices, we expect cash flow from operating activities, expected proceeds from the sale of our interests in Denmark and the Class B unit repurchase by HESM Opco, and cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2021 will be sufficient to fund our capital investment program, the July repayment of $500 million principal amount of our $1 billion term loan maturing in March 2023, and dividends. Depending on market conditions, we may take any of the following steps, or a combination thereof, to improve our liquidity and financial position: reduce the planned capital program and other cash outlays, including dividends, pursue asset sales, borrow against our committed revolving credit facility, or issue debt or equity securities.
Second Quarter Results
In the second quarter of 2021, we incurred a net loss of $73 million, compared with a net loss of $320 million in the second quarter of 2020. Excluding items affecting comparability of earnings between periods detailed on pages 25 and 26, adjusted net income was $74 million in the second quarter of 2021. The improvement in second quarter 2021 adjusted results compared to the prior-year quarter primarily reflects higher realized selling prices.
Exploration and Production Results
In the second quarter of 2021, E&P had a net loss of $25 million, compared with a net loss of $249 million in the second quarter of 2020. Excluding items affecting comparability of earnings between periods, adjusted net income was $122 million in the second quarter of 2021. Total net production, excluding Libya, averaged 307,000 boepd in the second quarter 2021, compared with 334,000 boepd in the second quarter of 2020, or 322,000 boepd pro forma for assets sold. The average realized crude oil selling price, including hedging, was $59.79 per barrel in the second quarter of 2021, compared with $38.46 per barrel in the second quarter of 2020. The average realized NGL selling price in the second quarter of 2021 was $23.12 per barrel, compared with $7.32 per barrel in the prior-year quarter, while the average realized natural gas selling price was $4.05 per thousand cubic feet (mcf) in the second quarter of 2021, compared with $2.41 per mcf in the second quarter of 2020.
The following is an update of our ongoing E&P activities:

In North Dakota, net production from the Bakken oil shale play averaged 159,000 boepd for the second quarter of 2021 (2020 Q2: 194,000 boepd), primarily due to lower drilling activity caused by a reduction in rig count from six to one last year, and lower NGL and natural gas volumes received under percentage of proceeds contracts due to higher commodity prices. Net oil production was 79,000 bopd in the second quarter of 2021 and 108,000 bopd in the prior year quarter. NGL and natural gas volumes received under percentage of proceeds contracts were 14,000 boepd in the second quarter of 2021 compared with 22,000 boepd in the second quarter of 2020 due to higher realized NGL prices lowering volumes received as consideration for gas processing fees. We added a second rig in February 2021 and drilled 17 wells, completed 9 wells, and brought 9 new wells online during the second quarter. In September 2021, we plan to add a third rig in the field. We forecast net production to average approximately 145,000 boepd for the third quarter of 2021, which reflects the planned third quarter Tioga gas plant turnaround, and in the range of 155,000 boepd to 160,000 boepd for the full year 2021.
On April 30, 2021, we completed the sale of our previously announced Little Knife and Murphy Creek nonstrategic acreage interests in the Bakken for net cash consideration of $297 million, after closing adjustments. The sale included approximately 78,700 net acres, which are located in the southernmost portion of the Corporation's Bakken position and not connected to Hess Midstream LP infrastructure.
•
In the Gulf of Mexico, net production for the second quarter of 2021 averaged 52,000 boepd (2020 Q2: 68,000 boepd), primarily due to the sale of our interest in the Shenzi Field in the fourth quarter of 2020. Net production from the Shenzi Field was 12,000 boepd in the second quarter of 2020.
•
At the Stabroek Block (Hess 30%), offshore Guyana, net production from the Liza Phase 1 development averaged 26,000 bopd for the second quarter of 2021 (2020 Q2: 22,000 bopd). Startup of Phase 2 of the Liza Field development, which will utilize the Liza Unity FPSO with an expected capacity of 220,000 gross bopd, remains on track for early 2022. The third development, Payara, will utilize the Prosperity FPSO with an expected capacity of 220,000 gross bopd; first oil is expected in 2024. A fourth development, Yellowtail, has been identified on the Stabroek Block with anticipated startup in 2025, pending government approvals and project sanctioning. The Mako-2 appraisal well completed in the second quarter confirmed the quality, thickness and areal extent of the reservoir.
When integrated with the previously announced results at Uaru-2, the combined discovered resource at Mako and Uaru is expected to support a fifth FPSO on the Stabroek Block.
The recently announced Whiptail-1 well encountered 246 feet (75 meters) of net pay in high quality oil bearing sandstone reservoirs. Drilling is also ongoing at the Whiptail-2 well, which is located three miles northeast of Whiptail-1 and has encountered 167 feet (51 meters) of net pay in high quality oil bearing sandstone reservoirs. Drilling continues at both wells to test deeper targets, and results will be evaluated for future development. The Whiptail discovery is located approximately four

miles southeast of the Uaru-1 discovery that was announced in January 2020 and approximately three miles west of the Yellowtail Field.
In the second quarter, the Longtail-3 well encountered 230 feet of net pay, including newly identified, high quality hydrocarbon bearing reservoirs below the original Longtail-1 discovery intervals. The well is located approximately two miles south of the Longtail-1 well.
The Koebi-1 exploration well was drilled to a depth of 20,700 feet and did not encounter commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. Second quarter results include a charge of $12 million in exploration expenses for well costs incurred.
The Stena DrillMax is continuing drilling operations at Whiptail-1 and the Noble Don Taylor is continuing drilling operations at Whiptail-2. The Stena Carron is performing a drill stem test on the Uaru-1 well. The Noble Tom Madden, the Noble Bob Douglas and the Noble Sam Croft are drilling and completing Phase 2 development wells.
•
In the Gulf of Thailand, net production from Block A-18 of the JDA averaged 38,000 boepd for the second quarter of 2021 (2020 Q2: 23,000 boepd), including contribution from unitized acreage in Malaysia, while net production from North Malay Basin, offshore Peninsular Malaysia, averaged 28,000 boepd for the second quarter of 2021 (2020 Q2: 21,000 boepd). Net production was higher at the JDA and North Malay Basin due to higher natural gas nominations resulting from a recovery in economic activity.
•
In March, we entered into an agreement to sell our interests in Denmark for total consideration of $150 million, with an effective date of January 1, 2021. Net production from Denmark during the second quarter of 2021 was 4,000 boepd (2020 Q2: 6,000 boepd). The sale is expected to close during the third quarter of 2021.

Adjusted net income (loss) attributable to Hess Corporation is a non-GAAP financial measure, which we define as reported net income (loss) attributable to Hess Corporation excluding items identified as affecting comparability of earnings between periods, which are summarized on pages 25 and 26. Management uses adjusted net income (loss) to evaluate the Corporation’s operating performance and believes that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing this measure, which excludes certain items that management believes are not directly related to ongoing operations and are not indicative of future business trends and operations.
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities presented in this report is a non-GAAP measure, which we define as reported net cash provided by (used in) operating activities excluding changes in operating assets and liabilities. Management uses net cash provided by (used in) operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities to evaluate the Corporation’s ability to internally fund capital expenditures, pay dividends and service debt and believes that investors’ understanding of our ability to generate cash to fund these items is enhanced by disclosing this measure, which excludes working capital and other movements that may distort assessment of our performance between periods.
These measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for U.S. GAAP net income (loss) and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.

In the following discussion and elsewhere in this report, the financial effects of certain transactions are disclosed on an after-tax basis. Management reviews segment earnings on an after-tax basis and uses after-tax amounts in its review of variances in segment earnings. Management believes that after-tax amounts are a preferable method of explaining variances in earnings, since they show the entire effect of a transaction rather than only the pre-tax amount. After-tax amounts are determined by applying the income tax rate in each tax jurisdiction to pre-tax amounts.

Selling prices in the United States are adjusted for certain processing and distribution fees included in Marketing expenses. Excluding these fees worldwide selling prices for the second quarter of 2021 would be $62.45 (Q2 2020: $41.33) per barrel for crude oil (including hedging), $66.93 (Q2 2020: $23.50) per barrel for crude oil (excluding hedging), $23.35 (Q2 2020: $7.49) per barrel for NGLs and $4.17 (Q2 2020: $2.55) per mcf for natural gas. Excluding these fees worldwide selling prices for the first six months of 2021 would be $58.97 (2020: $46.20) per barrel for crude oil (including hedging), $62.29 (2020: $36.12) per barrel for crude oil (excluding hedging), $26.43 (2020: $8.46) per barrel for NGLs and $4.59 (2020: $2.93) per mcf for natural gas.
(b)
Excluding the two VLCC cargo sales totaling 4.2 million barrels in the first quarter of 2021, the North Dakota crude oil price for the first six months of 2021 excluding hedging was $57.39 per barrel and $53.08 per barrel including hedging.
(c)
Other includes our interests in Denmark and Libya.
Crude oil hedging activities were a net loss of $64 million and $115 million before and after income taxes in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, respectively, and a net gain of $228 million and $292 million before and after income taxes in the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, we have WTI put options with an average monthly floor price of $55 per barrel for 120,000 bopd, and Brent put options with an average monthly floor price of $60 per barrel for 30,000 bopd for the remainder of the year. We expect noncash put option premium amortization, which will be reflected in realized selling prices, to reduce our third quarter results by approximately $65 million and our full year 2021 results by approximately $245 million.

Reflects natural gas production converted based on relative energy content (six mcf equals one barrel). Barrel of oil equivalence does not necessarily result in price equivalence as the equivalent price of natural gas on a barrel of oil equivalent basis has been substantially lower than the corresponding price for crude oil over the recent past. In addition, NGLs do not sell at prices equivalent to crude oil. See the average selling prices in the table on page 22.
We forecast net production, excluding Libya, to be approximately 265,000 boepd for the third quarter, which reflects the planned third quarter Tioga gas plant turnaround, and approximately 295,000 boepd for the full year 2021.
United States:
North Dakota net production was lower in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared to the corresponding periods in 2020, primarily due to reduced drilling activity and lower NGL and natural gas volumes received under percentage of proceeds contracts due to higher commodity prices. Total offshore net production was lower in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared to the corresponding periods in 2020, primarily due to the sale of our working interest in the Shenzi Field in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico in the fourth quarter of 2020. Net production from the Shenzi Field was 12,000 boepd for both the second quarter and first six months of 2020.
International:
Net oil production in Guyana was higher in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared to the corresponding periods in 2020, due to the production ramp up from the Liza Phase 1 development. Net oil production in Libya was higher in the second and first six months of 2021, compared to the corresponding periods in 2020, due to the lifting of force majeure, declared in the first quarter of 2020, in October 2020. Net natural gas production was higher at Malaysia and JDA reflecting higher natural gas nominations due to a recovery in economic activity.

(b)
Reflects natural gas production converted based on relative energy content (six mcf equals one barrel). Barrel of oil equivalence does not necessarily result in price equivalence as the equivalent price of natural gas on a barrel of oil equivalent basis has been substantially lower than the corresponding price for crude oil over the recent past. In addition, NGLs do not sell at prices equivalent to crude oil. See the average selling prices in the table on page 22.
Marketing, including Purchased Oil and Gas:
Marketing expense is mainly comprised of costs to purchase crude oil, NGL and natural gas from our partners in Hess operated wells or other third parties, primarily in the U.S., and transportation and other distribution costs for U.S. marketing activities. Marketing expense was higher in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared with the corresponding periods in 2020, primarily due to higher benchmark crude oil prices and the impact of VLCC activity. Second quarter 2020 marketing expense was reduced by $113 million for costs capitalized to crude oil inventory related to 3.7 million barrels produced and stored on VLCCs. First quarter 2021 marketing expense included $173 million related to the cost of 4.2 million barrels of crude oil stored on two VLCCs in 2020 that were sold in the first quarter.
Cash Operating Costs:
Cash operating costs consist of operating costs and expenses, production and severance taxes and E&P general and administrative expenses. Cash operating costs increased in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared with the corresponding periods in 2020, primarily due to higher maintenance and workover activity and higher production and severance taxes associated with higher crude oil prices. On a per-unit basis, cash operating costs were higher in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared with the corresponding periods in 2020 on the higher costs and the impact of lower 2021 production volumes.
Midstream Tariffs Expense:
Tariffs expense increased in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared with the corresponding periods in 2020, primarily due to higher minimum volume commitments and tariff rates. We estimate Midstream tariffs expense to be in the range of $265 million to $275 million in the third quarter of 2021 and in the range of $1,080 million to $1,100 million for the full year 2021.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (DD&A):
DD&A expense was lower in the second quarter of 2021, compared with the corresponding period in 2020, primarily due to lower production volumes and the impact to DD&A rates resulting from year-end 2020 revisions and additions to proved reserves. DD&A expense was lower in the first six months of 2021, compared with the corresponding period in 2020, due to the impact of first quarter 2020 impairment charges, lower production volumes and the impact to DD&A rates resulting from year-end 2020 revisions and additions to proved reserves.

First six months of 2020 primarily relates to previously capitalized exploratory wells (see Items Affecting Comparability of Earnings Between Periods below) and the Oldfield-1 exploration well in the Gulf of Mexico.
(b)
First six months of 2020 includes impaired leasehold costs due to a reprioritization of the Corporation’s forward capital program.
Exploration expenses, excluding dry hole expense, are estimated to be in the range of $40 million to $45 million in the third quarter of 2021 and in the range of $160 million to $170 million for the full year 2021.
Income Taxes:
The increase in income tax expense in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared to the corresponding periods in 2020, is primarily due to higher pre-tax income in Libya and Guyana. E&P income tax expense in the second quarter of 2021 was $119 million (Q2 2020: $11 million income tax benefit) and includes $96 million of income tax expense (Q2 2020: $8 million income tax benefit) from Libyan operations, and for the first six months of 2021, E&P income tax expense was $239 million (2020: $88 million income tax benefit) and includes $176 million of income tax expense (2020: $14 million income tax benefit) from Libyan operations. An income tax benefit of $80 million was recognized in the first quarter of 2020 attributable to items affecting comparability of earnings between periods. Excluding items affecting comparability between periods and Libyan operations, E&P income tax expense is expected to be in the range of $35 million to $40 million for the third quarter of 2021 and $125 million to $135 million for the full year 2021.

Impairment and other:
In the second quarter of 2021, we recorded a charge of $147 million ($147 million after income taxes) for the total estimated future abandonment obligations of the West Delta Field in the Gulf of Mexico. In June 2021, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court approved Fieldwood’s bankruptcy plan which includes discharging decommissioning obligations, subject to conditions precedent, for certain of Fieldwood’s assets. Those obligations will transfer to former owners of the properties, including us with respect to the West Delta Field, which we sold in 2004. Potential recoveries from other parties that previously owned an interest in the West Delta Field have not been recognized as of June 30, 2021. See
Note 10, Guarantees and Contingencies
in the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
In the first quarter of 2020, we recorded noncash impairment charges totaling $2.1 billion ($2.0 billion after income taxes) related to our oil and gas properties at North Malay Basin in Malaysia, the South Arne Field in Denmark, and the Stampede Field and the Tubular Bells Field in the Gulf of Mexico, primarily as a result of a lower long-term crude oil price outlook. Other charges totaling $21 million pre-tax ($20 million after income taxes) related to drilling rig right-of-use assets in the Bakken and surplus materials and supplies. See
Note 7, Impairment and Other
in the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
.
Dry hole, lease impairment and other exploration expenses:
In the first quarter of 2020, we incurred pre-tax charges totaling $152 million ($150 million after income taxes), primarily related to the write-off of previously capitalized exploratory wells in the Gulf of Mexico and to impair certain exploration leasehold costs.
Crude oil inventories write-down:
In the first quarter of 2020, we incurred a pre-tax charge of $53 million ($52 million after income taxes) to reduce crude oil inventories to their net realizable value.

Consolidated Results of Operations (continued)
Sales and other operating revenues for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 increased, compared to the corresponding periods in 2020, primarily due to higher minimum volume commitments and tariff rates partially offset by lower pass-through rail transportation revenue. Operating costs and expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 2021 decreased, compared to the corresponding periods in 2020, primarily due to lower pass-through transportation costs.
Excluding items affecting comparability of earnings, net income attributable to Hess Corporation from the Midstream segment is estimated to be in the range of $50 million to $60 million in the third quarter of 2021 and in the range of $275 million to $285 million for the full year 2021.

Corporate and other expenses were comparable in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared to the corresponding periods in 2020. Interest expense in the first six months of 2021 was higher than the corresponding period in 2020 due to interest incurred on the $1 billion three year term loan entered into in March 2020.
Third quarter 2021 corporate expenses are expected to be in the range of $30 million to $35 million, and interest expense is expected to be in the range of $95 million to $100 million. We estimate corporate expenses for full year 2021 to be in the range of $130 million to $140 million, and interest expense to be approximately $380 million.
Other Items Potentially Affecting Future Results
Our future results may be impacted by a variety of factors, including but not limited to, volatility in the selling prices of crude oil, NGLs and natural gas, reserve and production changes, asset sales, impairment charges and exploration expenses, industry cost inflation and/or deflation, changes in foreign exchange rates and income tax rates, changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances, the effects of weather, crude oil storage capacity, political risk, environmental risk and catastrophic risk, including risks associated with COVID-19.

Operating activities:
Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,376 million in the first six months of 2021, compared to $711 million in the first six months of 2020. The increase in 2021 operating cash flows primarily reflects higher realized selling prices and the sale of 4.2 million barrels of Bakken crude oil stored on two VLCCs in the first quarter of 2021. Changes in operating assets and liabilities reduced net cash provided by operating activities by $98 million in the first six months of 2021 and $92 million in the first six months of 2020.
Investing activities:
Additions to property, plant and equipment of $740 million in the first six months of 2021 were down $657 million compared with the corresponding period in 2020. The decrease primarily reflects reduced drilling activity. Proceeds from asset sales received in the second quarter of 2021 of $297 million related to the sale of our Little Knife and Murphy Creek nonstrategic acreage interests in the Bakken.

Midstream reduced borrowings under its revolving credit facilities by $75 million in the first six months of 2021 and increased borrowings by $72 million in the first six months of 2020. In March of 2020, the Corporation borrowed $1 billion under a new three year term loan that matures in March 2023. We paid common stock dividends totaling $157 million in both the first six months of 2021 and 2020. Net cash distributed to noncontrolling interests was $137 million in the first six months of 2021 and $128 million in the first six months of 2020. Proceeds received from stock options exercised by employees was $75 million in the first six months of 2021 and $15 million in the first six months of 2020. In the first quarter of 2021, we received net proceeds of $70 million from the public offering of 3,450,000 Hess-owned Class A shares in Hess Midstream LP.
Future Capital Requirements and Resources
At June 30, 2021, we had $2.42 billion in cash and cash equivalents, excluding Midstream, and total liquidity of approximately $6.1 billion. On April 13, 2021, we amended the Corporation's fully undrawn $3.5 billion revolving credit facility by extending the facility's expiration date for one year to May 2024. Oil and gas production in 2021, excluding Libya, is forecast to be approximately 295,000 boepd. For the remainder of 2021, we have hedged 120,000 bopd with $55 WTI put options and 30,000 bopd with $60 Brent put options.
In the third quarter of 2021, we expect to receive approximately $375 million from HESM Opco related to its announced repurchase of approximately 31 million Class B units and proceeds from the sale of our interests in Denmark for total consideration of $150 million, with an effective date of January 1, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,376 million in the first six months of 2021, compared with $711 million in the first six months of 2020. Net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities was $1,474 million in the first six months of 2021 and $803 million in the first six months of 2020. Capital expenditures were $746 million in the first six months of 2021 and $1,173 million in the first six months of 2020. In 2021, based on current forward strip crude oil prices, we expect cash flow from operating activities, expected proceeds from the sale of our interests in Denmark and the Class B unit repurchase by HESM Opco, and cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2021 will be sufficient to fund our capital investment program, the July repayment of $500 million principal amount of our $1 billion term loan maturing in March 2023, and dividends. Depending on market conditions, we may take any of the following steps, or a combination thereof, to improve our liquidity and financial position: reduce the planned capital program and other cash outlays, including dividends, pursue asset sales, borrow against our committed revolving credit facility, or issue debt or equity securities.

Hess Corporation:
On April 13, 2021, we amended the Corporation's fully undrawn $3.5 billion revolving credit facility that had an expiration date in May 2023, by extending the facility for one year to May 2024 and incorporating customary provisions for the eventual replacement of LIBOR, among other changes as set forth in the amended credit agreement. This facility can be used for borrowings and letters of credit. Borrowings on the facility will generally bear interest at 1.40% above LIBOR, though the interest rate is subject to adjustment if the Corporation’s credit rating changes. At June 30, 2021, Hess Corporation had no outstanding borrowings or letters of credit under its revolving credit facility.
In March 2020, we entered into a $1 billion three year term loan agreement with a maturity date of March 16, 2023. Borrowings under the term loan generally bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.25% until the term loan's first anniversary. The applicable margin varies based on the credit rating of the Corporation’s senior unsecured long-term debt and will increase by 0.25% on each anniversary of the term loan. In July 2021, we repaid $500 million principal amount of the term loan.
The revolving credit facility, including as amended, and term loan are subject to customary representations, warranties, customary events of default and covenants, including a financial covenant limiting the ratio of Total Consolidated Debt to Total Capitalization of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries to 65%, and a financial covenant limiting the ratio of secured debt to Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries to 15% (as these capitalized terms are defined in the credit agreement for the revolving credit facility and the term loan agreement). The indentures for the Corporation's fixed-rate public notes limit the ratio of secured debt to Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (as that term is defined in the indentures) to 15%. At June 30, 2021, Hess Corporation was in compliance with these financial covenants.
Two of the three major credit rating agencies that rate our debt have assigned an investment grade rating. In March 2021, Standard and Poor’s Ratings Services affirmed our credit rating at BBB- and revised the outlook to stable (from negative). Fitch Ratings affirmed a BBB- credit rating and stable outlook in August 2020 and Moody’s Investors Service affirmed our credit rating at Ba1 with stable outlook, which is below investment grade, in March 2020.
We have a shelf registration under which we may issue additional debt securities, warrants, common stock or preferred stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
Midstream:
At June 30, 2021, Hess Midstream Operations LP (formerly Hess Midstream Partners LP, or HESM Opco), a consolidated subsidiary of Hess Midstream LP, had $1.4 billion of senior secured syndicated credit facilities maturing December 16, 2024, consisting of a $1.0 billion 5-year revolving credit facility and a fully drawn $400 million 5-year term loan A facility. The revolving credit facility can be used for borrowings and letters of credit to fund HESM Opco’s operating activities, capital expenditures, distributions and for other general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the five year term loan A facility will generally bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.55% to 2.50%, while the applicable margin for the five year syndicated revolving credit facility ranges from 1.275% to 2.000%. Pricing levels for the facility fee and interest-rate margins are based on HESM Opco’s ratio of total debt to EBITDA (as defined in the credit facilities). If HESM Opco obtains an investment grade credit rating, the pricing levels will be based on HESM Opco’s credit ratings in effect from time to time. The credit facilities contain covenants that require HESM Opco to maintain a ratio of total debt to EBITDA (as defined in the credit facilities) for the prior four fiscal quarters of not greater than 5.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (5.50 to 1.00 during the specified period following certain acquisitions) and, prior to HESM Opco obtaining an investment grade credit rating, a ratio of secured debt to EBITDA for the prior four fiscal quarters of not greater than 4.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. HESM Opco was in compliance with these financial covenants at June 30, 2021. The credit facilities are secured by first-priority perfected liens on substantially all the presently owned and after-acquired assets of HESM Opco and its direct and indirect wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries, including equity interests directly owned by such entities, subject to certain customary exclusions. At June 30, 2021, borrowings of $109 million were drawn under HESM Opco’s revolving credit facility, and borrowings of $395 million, excluding deferred issuance costs, were drawn under HESM Opco’s term loan A facility. Borrowings under these credit facilities are non-recourse to Hess Corporation.
Market Risk Disclosures
We are exposed in the normal course of business to commodity risks related to changes in the prices of crude oil and natural gas, as well as changes in interest rates and foreign currency values
.
See
Note 12, Financial Risk Management Activities
, in the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
.
We have outstanding foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts totaling $91 million at June 30, 2021 that are used to reduce our exposure to fluctuating foreign exchange rates for various currencies. A 10% strengthening or weakening in the U.S. Dollar exchange rate is estimated to be a gain or loss of less than $5 million, respectively, at June 30, 2021.
At June 30, 2021, consolidated long-term debt, which was substantially comprised of fixed-rate instruments, had a carrying value of $8,223 million and a fair value of $9,749 million. A 15% increase or decrease in interest rates would decrease or increase the fair value of debt by approximately $370 million or $375 million, respectively. Any changes in interest rates do not impact our cash outflows associated with fixed-rate interest payments or settlement of debt principal, unless a debt instrument is repurchased prior to maturity.
At June 30, 2021, we have outstanding WTI and Brent crude oil put option contracts. As of June 30, 2021, an assumed 10% increase in the forward WTI and Brent crude oil prices would reduce the fair value of these derivative instruments by approximately $10 million, while an assumed 10% decrease in the same crude oil prices would increase the fair value of these derivative instruments by approximately $15 million.
