Production
TotalEnergies EP Gabon crude oil production in third quarter 2024 amounted 16.9 kb/d, slightly down compared to the second quarter 2024 (17.4 kb/d) mainly due the Anguille compressor planned shutdown for maintenance.
In the first nine months of 2024, TotalEnergies EP Gabon crude oil production amounted 17.2 kb/d, up 11% compared to first nine months of 2023 (15.5 kb/d). This production significant increase is driven by facilities availabilities improvement and the workovers results.
Revenues
Revenues in third quarter 2024 amounted $157 million, in progression of 27% compared to second quarter 2024 ($124 million), essentially due to the increase of volumes of crude oil sold by the Company (+43 %) explained by a more favorable lifting program, to offset the decline of the crude oil grade marketed by TotalEnergies EP Gabon average price.
In the first nine months of 2024, revenues amounted $401 million, up 20% compared to first nine months 2023 ($415 million) thanks to the combined effects of the volumes of crude oil produced increase (+11%) and sold by the Company (+20%) and the improvement in the average prices of crude oil marketed by TotalEnergies EP Gabon (+2%).
Funds generated from operations
Cash flow from operations during the third quarter 2024 amounted $32 million, against $90 million during the second quarter 2024. It’s impacted negatively by the working capital variation (-$50 million) directly linked to volumes sold between the two quarters, the gross margin down (-$12 million) and the lower interest on cash deposits (-$2 million). These effects were partially offset by the current tax reduction (+$11 million).
During the nine first months of 2024, cash flow from operations reached $217 million, up 33% compared to nine first months of 2023 ($163 million). It’s positively impacted by the gross margin increase (+$40 million), operating costs and other non-operating expenses decrease (+$18 million), interest of cash deposit increase (+$3 million) and the working capital amelioration (+$7 million) between the compared quarters. These effects are partially offset by sites restitution charges and current tax increase (-$14 million).

In the first nine months of 2024, petroleum investments amounted $53 million, down 17% compared to first nine months 2023 ($64 million). During 2024 financial year, they mainly cover workovers campaign, integrity works on the sites, operations and studies aiming at reduction direct greenhouse gas emissions from our activities. As a reminder, in 2023, investments over the first nine months included the costs of the five-year shutdown on Anguille site.
Net income
The net income of the third quarter of 2024 was $25 million, down 11% compared to the second quarter of 2024 ($28 million). It was negatively impacted by the gross margin decrease
(-$12 million), offset by the income tax expense decrease (+$9 million) between the two quarters.
For the first nine months of 2024, net income was $78 million, compared to $57 million in the first nine months of 2023. It was positively impacted by higher gross margin (+$40 million), lower operating and other non-operating expenses (+$18 million) and higher interest on cash deposits (+$3 million). These positive effects were partially offset by higher depreciation,
amortization and financial provisions (-$18 million) and higher income tax expense (-$22 million).
