Commenting on the Company’s 2024 performance, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Andrew G. Inglis said: "In 2022, we set out a goal to materially grow production from several key projects across our portfolio. 2024 was a year of delivering those projects, with continued 2P reserve growth and production now increasing as the projects ramp up. With the end of this highly capital-intensive period for the company we will now prioritize the generation of free cash flow from our increased production base together with disciplined capital investment. Our forecast 2025 capex budget of
Operationally, we were pleased to see first gas production at GTA at the end of 2024, followed earlier this month by first LNG production, two significant milestones for the project, its partners and the people of
In the Gulf of America, we expect production to further increase from the Winterfell 3&4 wells in the coming months and have been pleased by the production optimization projects undertaken during 2024. In

OPERATIONAL UPDATE
Production
Total net production(2) in the fourth quarter of 2024 averaged approximately 66,800 boepd. Production was below guidance primarily due to lower production at Jubilee (flagged by the operator in January) and the timing impact of new project startups. The Company exited the quarter in a net underlift position of approximately 0.2 million barrels. While these projects are close to completing their ramp-up within the next month, first quarter 2025 production is also impacted by planned shut-downs at Jubilee in
Production in
At Jubilee (
The Noble Venturer rig has been contracted to drill two wells in 2025 and is expected to arrive in May. The two wells, one Jubilee producer and one Jubilee injector, are expected online in the third quarter of 2025. The rig will then undergo scheduled maintenance before returning for a planned four-well drilling campaign on Jubilee in 2026.
In the fourth quarter of 2024, Jubilee gas production net to Kosmos was approximately 5,700 boepd in line with expectations.
At TEN (
Gulf of America
Production in the Gulf of America averaged approximately 18,200 boepd net (~
On Tiberius, Kosmos continues to progress the development and expects to complete a farm down of the field around the time of project sanction.
Kosmos has an attractive portfolio of infrastructure-led exploration (ILX) opportunities that we will high-grade through 2025.
Production in
The drilling campaign also included drilling of the S-6 “Akeng Deep” ILX prospect in Block S offshore
The GTA LNG project achieved first gas production during the fourth quarter, a significant milestone for the project partners and the governments and people of
Post quarter-end, the project achieved first LNG production, another key milestone, which is when Kosmos will now start to recognize entitlement production. The first LNG cargo is expected later this quarter, with an LNG tanker currently standing by the Hub Terminal ready for loading. Loading the first cargo is when the partnership will start to recognize revenue from the project.
In addition, the partnership is working collaboratively to prioritize both the low-cost brownfield expansion of the development to fully utilize the existing infrastructure, and future cost optimization for the first phase of GTA with the near-term focus on the re-financing of the FPSO leaseback arrangement.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDAX, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per share, free cash flow, and net debt are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines EBITDAX as Net income (loss) plus (i) exploration expense, (ii) depletion, depreciation and amortization expense, (iii) equity based compensation expense, (iv) unrealized (gain) loss on commodity derivatives (realized losses are deducted and realized gains are added back), (v) (gain) loss on sale of oil and gas properties, (vi) interest (income) expense, (vii) income taxes, (viii) debt modifications and extinguishments, (ix) doubtful accounts expense and (x) similar other material items which management believes affect the comparability of operating results. The Company defines Adjusted net income (loss) as Net income (loss) adjusted for certain items that impact the comparability of results. The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less Oil and gas assets, Other property, and certain other items that may affect the comparability of results and excludes non-recurring activity such as acquisitions, divestitures and National Oil Company ("NOC") financing. NOC financing refers to the amounts funded by Kosmos under the Carry Advance Agreements that the Company has in place with the national oil companies of each of
We believe that EBITDAX, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per share, free cash flow, Net debt and other similar measures are useful to investors because they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the oil and gas sector and will provide investors with a useful tool for assessing the comparability between periods, among securities analysts, as well as company by company. EBITDAX, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per share, free cash flow, and net debt as presented by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
This release also contains certain forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, including free cash flow. Due to the forward-looking nature of the aforementioned non-GAAP financial measures, management cannot reliably or reasonably predict certain of the necessary components of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures, such as future impairments and future changes in working capital. Accordingly, we are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures. Amounts excluded from these non-GAAP measures in future periods could be significant.
