I. Financial and Operating Results
Sales Revenues
Accumulated sales revenue in 2Q25 totaled
- Lower weighted average sales price of crude oil and products of -
12.0 USD /Bl (COP -4.4 trillion ), in line with the decrease in Brent, partially offset by strengthening crude trading and product differentials. - Lower income from energy and road transmission services (
COP -0.1 trillion ), due to the combined effect of: i) timely recognition in June of the adjustment to the financial component of the Basic Network of the Existing System in ISA Brazil forCOP -0.6 trillion , and ii) higher income from rate indexation to inflation indicators. - Positive exchange effect on income (
COP +1.4 trillion ), due to a higher average exchange rate. - Positive effect on sales volume of
COP +0.1 trillion , due to the offsetting effects of: i) higher crude oil exports (+12.4 mboed), given commercial management that allowed closing with lower shipments in transit in 2Q25 versus 2Q24 and ii) lower gas sales volume (-14.1 mboed), mainly associated to lower domestic production due to natural decline of fields and other effects on the local environment.

Sales in
- Decrease of
21.6% (-18.7 mboed) in gas sales explained by lower quantities contracted in Cusiana - Cupiagua due to the decline in production fields.
- Decrease of
14.3% (-2.2 mboed) in sales of LPG and Propane as a consequence of the financial prioritization of the use of energy for own consumption, which reduces the cost of dilution of crude oil and gas purchases. - Decrease of
1.3% (-2.5 mboed) in middle distillate sales, explained by lower domestic diesel demand in thermal power generation, large consumers, and industrial burners.
International sales, which represented
- Increase of
2.9% (+12.3 mboed) in crude oil exports due to lower shipments in transit in 2Q25 versus 2Q24.
- Increase of

The National Taxes and Customs Directorate ("DIAN") issued Opinion No. 100202208-2305 on December 19, 2024, which, according to its interpretation, stated that the imports and nationalization of gasoline and Diesel are subject to Sales Tax (VAT) at the general rate of
Ecopetrol S.A. ("the Company") and Refinería de Cartagena S.A.S. ("the Refinery") differ from the DIAN's interpretation for the reasons that were opportunely presented to the tax authority. The tax authority, in line with its interpretation and current application, has notified the Refinery of two official assessments and four special customs requirements totaling
The Refinery and the Company, in the framework of due diligence and the protection of their legitimate interests, have responded to DIAN's actions within the legally established timeframes, challenging the issued rulings and questioning the regulatory interpretation. Under DIAN's interpretation, the collection process may continue in accordance with the procedural rules of the customs regime and the Tax Statute, which include coercive collection procedures. However, the Refinery and the Company may exercise the corresponding administrative or judicial remedies, as provided by the same regulations. Although the Refinery and the Company plan to pursue these remedies, a potential coercive collection could have a materially adverse effect on their operations, liquidity, and financial position, depending on the amount and duration of such collection. Furthermore, based on opinions issued by external advisors, who consider the probability of success to be greater than

Efficiencies
In 2025, the Group continues materializing its comprehensive strategy of efficiencies and competitiveness with a contribution of
i)
OPEX
- Cost efficiencies in the Corporate and Support Areas (
COP 147 billion ), including initiatives in digital solutions and infrastructure at the corporate level and in control of service demand in operations, - New service contracting achieving better rates than planned (
COP 133 billion ), - Cost efficiency in self-generation and energy purchase management (
COP 104 billion ), - Energy efficiency in operations (
COP 51 billion ), and - Lower crude oil evacuation costs, mainly due to the entry of the Caño Sur Este - ODL pipeline (
COP 77 billion ), among others.
Income
- Capture of synergies in the crude transportation systems associated to the segregation and routing of crudes (Caño Limón and Araguaney Blend) (
COP 82 billion ), - Higher margins achieved in product purchases and imports (
COP 73 billion ) and crude exports (COP 68 billion ), - Gain from volumetric compensation for quality, obtaining more volumes for sale (
COP 48 billion ), and higher asphalt production at the Barrancabermeja refinery (COP 12 billion ), among others.
From the unit costs standpoint, the efficiencies obtained are reflected as follows:
47% of the aforementioned efficiencies with an effect on EBITDA reduced the lifting cost by0.81 USD /Bl.- Efficiencies affecting the refining cash cost and the cost per barrel transported reduced such costs by
0.07 USD /bl and0.015 USD /bl, respectively.
ii) Efficiencies of
- In drilling and completion, design and engineering initiatives stand out, together with optimization of cementing and directional services, negotiation of steel rates and implementation of lessons learned from reduction of process times.
- Permian notable progress was made through the implementation of best practices aimed at reducing time and costs in drilling and completion operations. Design and engineering initiatives introduced new well designs with lower fracture pressures and shorter pumping times, resulting in reduced cost per foot drilled and cost per barrel pumped, thereby enabling an increase in planned activity.
- In surface facility projects, efficiencies are highlighted by redefining scopes (design and engineering) without affecting the value promise of the projects, using existing facilities and materials available in the warehouse, thus reducing purchases.
iii) Actions focused on improving working capital, positive effect on the company's cash flow by

1. HYDROCARBONS
1.1 Exploration, Development and Production
Exploration
At the end of 2Q25, 6 exploratory wells were drilled compared to the 10 planned for the year. Of these wells, 2 were successful (Sirius-2 ST2 and Currucutu-1), 2 are under evaluation (Toritos Oeste-1 and Toritos Sur-3), and 2 had no commercial hydrocarbon shows (Andina Este-1 and Buena Suerte-1).
In the onshore exploration activity, the following stands out:
- The declaration of commerciality of the Lorito discovery, in the Llanos Sur basin (municipality of Guamal, Meta), materializes the benefits derived from the acquisition of
45% of the CPO-09 block. This asset is incorporated into the production portfolio with two wells that have a joint potential of 1,450 barrels per day. Its proximity to existing production and transportation infrastructure facilitates its commercial production and allows to leverage on operational synergies with Ecopetrol's producing fields. - The success of the Currucutú-1 well, operated by GeoPark in partnership with our subsidiary Hocol, located in the Department of Meta, municipality of Cabuyaro, in block LLA-123, was confirmed, which found heavy crude oil accumulation of 14.2 °API. This well is located in the same Eastern Llanos basin as the Toritos discovery, which reduces the technical uncertainty of the block and expands its production potential to the North.
- Of the wells drilled in previous years that were under evaluation, Bisbita Oeste-1,drilled in 2024, and Zorzal Este-2, drilled in 2023, confirmed the presence of hydrocarbons in the departments of Meta and Casanare, both wells are operated by GeoPark in partnership with our subsidiary Hocol.
- Drilling continues on the Floreña N18Y well operated by Ecopetrol (
100% ), located in the Piedemonte, which is expected to reach final depth in 4Q25. - Approval was obtained to extend the term of the exploration phase for contracts LLA-4-1 and LLA-141 for two- year and one and a half year periods, respectively.
In the offshore exploration activity, the following stands out:
- The exploration campaign in the GUAOFF-0 block continued with the completion of the Buena Suerte-1 well, with no commercial hydrocarbon shows. This well targeted a different play2 than Sirius. Additionally, the evaluation of the block continues with the objective of identifying additional volumes, maximizing value capture from the asset, and reducing technical uncertainty, through the drilling of the Papayuela-1 well, which is expected to be completed in 4Q25.
- The Sirius project is progressing with the contracting model for the design, construction and operation of the facilities that will allow gas to be treated to meet regulatory conditions for commercialization in the domestic market. At the same time, ethnic, social and environmental feasibility activities are being performed to continue with the environmental licensing process.
- Regarding the Fuerte Sur, Purple Angel and COL-5 blocks, where the Kronos, Gorgon and Glaucus (KGG) gas discoveries are located, work continues with Shell and the ANH to formalize the transfer of Shell's
50% ownership and operation to Ecopetrol, in accordance with current regulations. On June 9, 2025, a request was filed with the ANH for the assignment of Shell's participation interest (50% ) in the contracts in favor of Ecopetrol, which continues making progress in maturing the development alternatives for the discoveries.3
Gato do Mato (Change of name to "Orca and Sul de Orca Field" approved by the Brazilian National Petroleum and Biofuels Agency (ANP) as of May 20, 2025)
The following progress was made during the quarter:
- Recognition of the effectiveness of the Declaration of Commerciality of the Orca (ORC) and South Orca (SOR) development areas was obtained on May 20, 2025, from the Brazilian National Petroleum and Biofuels Agency (ANP), which is one of the milestones that are expected to enable the start of the gradual incorporation of proven reserves as of 2025.
- During the quarter, detailed engineering of the vessel (FPSO4) and processing facilities started along with process safety analyses and consolidation of work teams by the contractors and the operator.

The production of the Ecopetrol Group in 2Q25 was 755.5 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (mboed), of which Ecopetrol S.A. contributed 595.4 mboed and the subsidiaries 160.1 mboed, incorporating the production of the Guando and Guando SW fields (4.3 mboed) into the subsidiary, Hocol, given the transfer from Ecopetrol S.A. at the end of 2024, in line with the Ecopetrol Group's presence strategy in the department of Tolima through this subsidiary.
Compared to the same period of the previous year, the production of gas -4.1 mboed due mainly to: i) lower gas production related to the decline of the Cusiana and Recetor fields (Piedemonte Llanero), and Ballena and Chuchupa in Guajira, ii) lower crude oil production due to blockades in the Orinoquia, associated to events beyond Ecopetrol's control, and iii) the impact of the Llanos Norte asset due to the unavailability of the Bicentennial Pipeline because of damage to the infrastructure caused by third parties. These effects were partially mitigated by: i) improved performance of Permian's incremental campaign due to the optimization of the development plan, ii) acquisition of Repsol's
Compared to the first half of 2024, production levels are maintained in the order of (+0.21 mboed) with an increase in domestic crudes of +5.2 mboed, driven by the growth in Caño Sur and Chichimene, and the acquisition of
With respect to production impact derived from external events, during 2Q25 there was a deferred production of 1.5 million barrels for a cumulative total of 1.8 million barrels for the first half of the year.
These impacts were mainly concentrated in April (

Cost effect (
- Energy optimization: optimization of self-generation and energy purchase tariffs, as well as a reduction in energy consumption thanks to the optimal operation of production processes and the widespread adoption of more efficient technologies.
- Optimization of the operations and maintenance model for non-industrial areas.
- Reuse of materials in subsurface operations.
- New maintenance and production facilities contracts, achieving better rates than originally planned.
These efficiencies partially offset the following cost increases:
- Cumulative inflation impact on operating service and labor costs (
+0.28 USD /Bl). - Maintenance at international assets: increased maintenance activities at
Big Spring and Lomax, located in the Permian Basin. - Fluid treatment: Increase in volumes treated (+736 KBWPD6), mainly in Caño Sur, Rubiales and Castilla and in Akacias due to the acquisition of a stake in the CPO-09 block, which require additional energy, chemical treatment, and maintenance associated with the expansion of facilities for their processing.
- Increased subsurface activities: Early scheduling of interventions as a strategy to leverage available equipment and manage external conditions.

Revenues decreased during 2Q25 compared to 2Q24 mainly due to a lower Brent reference price; this was partially offset by: i) higher average exchange rate ii) higher foreign sales, and iii) strengthening of the crude oil differential.
The cost of sales increased in 2Q25 compared to 2Q24 due to:
- Increase in depreciation, amortization and depletion, mainly associated with the higher level of capitalization in CPO-09 and Caño Sur, in addition to the higher production levels in these assets and Permian. This increase was also affected by the exchange rate for companies with a functional currency other than the Colombian peso.
- Increase in transportation costs due to: i) higher average exchange rate, ii) increase in rates and iii) greater Banadía-Araguaney contingent operation as a result of the external events, partially offset by the entry of the Caño Sur Este - ODL pipeline.
- Offset by a decrease in purchases from third parties mainly due to: i) lower reference price, and ii) lower volumes purchased.
Operating and exploration costs in 2Q25 compared to 2Q24 decreased mainly due to a lower write-off of exploratory assets.
The financial (non-operational) result of 2Q25 compared to 2Q24 presented a lower expense mainly due to the effect of the exchange difference on the segment's net passive position in dollars, the above partially offset by the higher interest expense.
The decrease in income tax expense for 2Q25 compared to 2Q24 was generated in line with the segment results and a lower rental surcharge given the current Brent price projection.

During 1H25, and with greater intensity in 2Q25, we faced operational challenges derived from the external events and damages to the infrastructure by third parties, particularly in the Caño Limón-Coveñas pipelines suspended in the Banadía - Ayacucho section since 3Q24, as well as damages in the Caño Limón-Banadía section and in the Bicentennial Pipeline. These events forced the suspension of operations through this alternate route for 43 days during 2Q25 and 68 days in 1H25, limiting production and transportation of approximately 14 mboed in 2Q25 and 8 mboed in 1H25.
Faced with operating challenges derived from the above-mentioned affectations, various strategies were implemented seeking to guarantee operational continuity and minimizing impact on the logistics chain, ensuring evacuation of the fields, supply to the refineries, and meeting export commitments. Among the measures adopted, it should be highlighted the implementation of effective mitigation strategies, strengthening of operational control and coordination with governmental entities, which enabled the evacuation of crude from Arauca through the alternate route of the Bicentennial Pipeline in the Banadía-Araguaney direction, through which nearly 7.2 million barrels were transported in 1H25, vs. almost 1.5 million barrels mobilized in the same period of the previous year, thus allowing to evacuate the filelds and reduce the impact of production deferrals. Additionally, through the implementation of logistic schemes, the transportation of segregated Caño Limón crude from Araguaney to the Barrancabermeja refinery was ensured, without compromising its quality or properties, which allowed it to be used in the refining units.
We were also able to increase the operating capacity of strategic systems such as Araguaney - Cusiana, where the capacity to evacuate Caño Limón crude oil in reversion was increased from 50 to 80 mbod, which allowed us to reduce the field's inventories

Despite the measures and strategies implemented, which include the use of advanced technologies and the strengthening of inter-institutional coordination to mitigate the risk of hydrocarbon seizure, during 1H25, the installing of illicit valves affected the operation in different systems, particularly in the Pozos-Galán system, which restricted product transportation by approximately 16 mboed (~
Third party affectation on transportation infrastructure: During 2Q25 and 1H25, there was an increase in the number of incidents involving third parties affecting the transport infrastructure, reaching a total of 20 events in 1H25 (8 in 2Q25), compared to 2 events reported in 1H24 (0 in 2Q24). In turn, in 2Q25, the number of illicit valves removed in the transportation infrastructure was reduced by

Revenues in 2Q25 increased compared to 2Q24, due to: i) a higher average exchange rate, ii) a higher Banadía-Araguaney contingent operation, and iii) rate updates. These effects offset: i) lower revenues associated to the release of contracted capacity under the "Ship or Pay" modality in the Bicentenario and Caño Limón-Coveñas pipelines, as well as ii) lower volumes transported compared to the previous period due to the impact of the local environment, lower production of third parties in the country and higher maintenance at the Barrancabermeja Refinery.
The cost of sales for 2Q25 decreased compared to 2Q24, mainly due to: i) lower variable costs associated to lower consumption of crude oil, fuel and energy, in line with the reduction in volumes transported, ii) lower purchases for product replacement, and iii) reduction in contracted services, especially in information technology. These factors are partially offset by: i) higher restatement costs due to a higher average exchange rate and, ii) the increase associated to the inflationary effect.
Operating expenses, net for 2Q25 increased compared to 2Q24, mainly due to higher emergency care expenses given the local external events; additionally, in 2Q24 lower expenses were recognized due to the non-recurring favorable effect of the sale of the excess volume of the full line in Ocensa to Ecopetrol S.A.
The net financial result (not operational) for 2Q25 decreased compared to 2Q24, mainly due to: i) the exchange rate effect given a lower closing exchange rate on the segment's net active dollar position, and ii) lower financial returns associated to the behavior of interest rates on deposits and investments.

In this context, tactical, operational and commercial strategies were implemented that made it possible to: i) mitigate the effects of the lower availability of light crude oil in the diet of the refineries, as a result of the attacks that affected the Caño Limón - Coveñas pipeline, ii) comply with maintenance plans guaranteeing operational reliability, which was reflected in an operational availability of
Downstream made material progress in its internationalization and sustainability, with significant milestones occurring since May 2025:
- Ecopetrol made its first export on June 9, 2025 of 185 thousand barrels of IFO 380 marine fuel from the Cartagena Refinery to Cape Canaveral, marking its entry into a competitive global market. This operation represents the incorporation of this product into the company's export portfolio, strengthening its offer with a more efficient alternative with a lower environmental footprint, due to the reduction of emissions by removing streams with high sulfur content, reused in alternative industrial processes.
- Ecopetrol sets a record in liquid asphalt exports. Reached a historic volume of 56,700 tons exported on May, consolidating its position as the main exporter of asphalt in
Latin America after four years of operations from the Barrancabermeja Refinery. - Ecopetrol and Aerocivil signed the "SAF Vuela" program to promote the development of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF), strengthening infrastructure and positioning the country as a regional benchmark in aerial decarbonization.
- The company completed its first direct export operation of 200 tons of light liquid paraffin from the Barrancabermeja Refinery to
Brazil , where it is expected to be used in the manufacture of wood panels. This milestone marks the beginning of a new stage in the opening of markets, with higher profit margins and projection towards new destinations inLatin America , includingChile ,Peru andMexico .

Revenues decreased in 2Q25 compared to 2Q24 due to lower sales volumes associated with the scheduled plant shutdowns of the major maintenance cycle at the Barrancabermeja Refinery, which was partially offset by: i) the positive effect of a higher average exchange rate and ii) the strengthening of the product differential.
The cost of sales decreased in 2Q25 compared to 2Q24, mainly due to: i) a reduction in the cost of diet due to a drop in the price of Brent, and ii) lower crude oil purchases due to lower cargoes due to the plant shutdown plan at the Barrancabermeja Refinery and lower receipt of light crude oil. The decrease is partially offset by the effect of the higher average exchange rate on purchases.
Operating expenses for 2Q25 remained at similar levels to those recorded in 2Q24. This performance reflects the effectiveness of the efficiency plan implemented, which allowed us to contain OPEX growth, limiting it only to the impact of the inflationary adjustment.
The financial (non-operational) result of 2Q25 versus 2Q24 presented a lower expense mainly due to the effect of the exchange difference in the valuation of the segment's net position.

ISA Energía
In 2012, the early termination of Concession 059 in ISA CTEEP led to the recognition of the outstanding payment value, separating two groups of assets: i) RBNI (New Investment Basic Network) – non-depreciated assets built after the year 2000, which were paid between 2013 and 2015; and ii) RBSE (Existing System Basic Network) – non-depreciated assets built before the year 2000, for which effective payment only began in 2017, following regulatory efforts by ISA CTEEP with ANEEL (
In 2017, ANEEL issued a ruling on the payment of the RBSE, establishing that it should be divided into two components: an economic component, which reviewed the outstanding balance, and a financial component (hereinafter referred to as "Ke"), corresponding to the monetary update from 2013 to 2017.
Although the effective payment of the RBSE began in 2017, the financial component was disputed and subsequently suspended until 2021, when ANEEL recognized the payment of "Ke" for the period from 2013 to 2020.
In 2024, ANEEL decided to review certain methodological criteria for calculating the financial component, following a request submitted in 2021 by industry associations and market agents in
In June 2025, ANEEL's board issued a decision adjusting the flow base used to calculate "Ke," considering only the unpaid financial component that had been under dispute since 2017.
