Business overview<br />

Upstream<br />

Expressed in dollars, 2006 adjusted net operating in<strong>com</strong>e for<br />

the Upstream segment was $10.9 billion, an increase of<br />

$0.9 billion <strong>com</strong>pared to 2005, <strong>com</strong>posed mainly of the<br />

$2.5 billion positive effect of higher hydrocarbon prices, which<br />

was partially offset by the negative impact of lower production<br />

volumes and changes in the portfolio (approx -$0.6 billion),<br />

higher production costs (approx -$0.5 billion, including<br />

-$0.2 billion for exploration) and the impact of changes in tax<br />

terms (approximately -$0.5 billion).<br />

Technical costs (FAS 69, consolidated subsidiaries only)<br />

increased to $9.9/boe in 2006 from $8.5/boe in 2005.<br />

Price realizations* 2006 2005 2004<br />

Liquids realizations ($/b) 61.8 51.0 36.3<br />

Gas realizations ($/Mbtu) 5.91 4.77 3.74<br />

* Consolidated subsidiaries, excluding fixed margin and buy-back contracts.<br />

For the year 2006, the increase in TOTAL’s average liquids<br />

price was globally in line with the increase in Brent. TOTAL’s<br />

average gas price increased by more than its liquids price,<br />

due to the lag effect on long-term contracts for gas and<br />

strong LNG prices in Asia.<br />
