         Industry Risk Management
• Objective
   • Reduce the risk of adverse price changes in the
   physical market
   • Perhaps to make a profit

• How?
   • Determines a hedge ratio
   • Optimal hedge ratios should be time-varying

For example, a hedging program covering 50%–60% of total
production is far more common with trusts than in the
Exploration &Production sector
        Industry Risk Management

• TransCanada Corp, Nexen Inc, Talisman
Energy Inc
      - No clear hedging strategies
      – Minor oil stake -> all hedged

• Encana Corp
      - Mainly fixed price contracts, collars,
puts and calls

• Suncor Energy Inc ($9.7B in revenue)
     – Hedged 36%, 16% and 9 % (2003-2005)
     -> losses $550M
         Industry Hedgers

• Husky Energy Inc ($10B in revenue)
     – Hedging no more than 50% of production
(2003-2004) -> losses $670M

• CNRL ($7B in revenue)
     – Horizon Oil Sands Project ($10.8B in 10 yrs)
     – Largest hedge loser (close to $1B)

Risks and Uncertainties
               Hedging Philosophy



oThe derivative financial instruments are not intended for trading or speculative
purposes.

oThe purpose of using derivative financial instruments is to generate stable and
predictable cash flows.

oChanges in fair value of derivative financial instruments formally designated as hedges
are not recognized in net earnings until such time as the corresponding gains or losses
on the related hedged items are also recognized.

o Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments not formally designated
as hedges are recognized in the balance sheet each period with the offset reflected in
risk management activities in the consolidated statements of earnings.
Risk Management Activities
           Commodity Price Risk
    company enters into commodity price contracts to
o The
manage anticipated sales of crude oil and natural gas.

oRealized gains or losses on these contracts are included in risk
management activities.

oUnrealized gains or losses on commodity price contracts not
formally documented as hedges are also included in risk
management activities.
        Currency Risk
oThe company’s operating results are affected by
fluctuations in the exchange rates between the Canadian
dollar, US dollar, and UK pound sterling.

   oMajority of revenues are based on reference to US dollar
   benchmark prices and therefore an increase in the value of
   the CAD/USD results in decreased revenue from the sale
   of production.

   oProduction expenses are subject to fluctuations due to
   changes in the exchange rate of the UK pound sterling to
   the US dollar on North Sea operations.
         Currency Risk

oCross-currency swap agreements are used to manage currency
exposure on US dollar denominated debt.

oGains or losses on the foreign exchange component of all
cross-currency swap contracts are included in risk management
activities.

oGains or losses on the interest component of cross-currency
swap contracts designated as hedges are included in interest
expense.
         Interest Rate Risk

oThe company enters into interest rate swap agreements to
manage its fixed to floating interest rate mix on long-term
debt.

oThe contracts require the periodic exchange of payments
without the exchange of the notional principle amounts on
which the payments are based.

oGains or losses on interest rate swap contracts formally
designated as hedges are included in interest expense.

oGains or losses on non-designated interest rate contracts
are included in risk management activities.

The Company’s Stock Option Plan provides current employees with the right
to elect to receive common shares or a direct cash payment in exchange for

Options are valued based on the difference between the exercise price of
the stock options and the market price of the Company’s common shares.

Stock options granted under the Option Plan have a maximum term of six
years to expiry and vest equally over a five-year period.

The exercise price of each stock option granted is determined at the closing
market price of the common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange on the day
prior to the grant.

Each stock option granted permits the holder to purchase one common
share of the Company at the stated exercise price.
           Employee Stock Options

for stock options surrendered for cash settlement (Dec. 31, 2004 –

Employee Stock Options
           Counterparty Credit Risk Management


Accounts receivable are mainly with customers in the crude oil and natural gas
industry and are subject to normal industry credit risks.

    The company manages this risk by entering into sales contracts with only
    highly rated entities.

    The company ensures that parental guarantees or letters of credit are in
    place to minimize the impact in the event of default.

The company is also exposed to possible losses in the event of non-
performance by counterparties to derivative financial instruments.

    This risk is managed by entering into agreements with only highly rated
    financial institutions and other entities.
