Key Investment Considerations • Strong operating track record with 27+ year history of success in the Gulf of Mexico • Recent movement onshore via Permian Basin Property acquisition • Gulf Coast oil production generating premiums to market and strong cash flow • Strong liquidity level and cash flow generation • Pro forma proved reserves continue to increase and are 57% oil and liquids • Proven, experienced management team whose interests align with all stakeholders (CEO owns over 50% of stock) 2
Company Overview • Large acreage position in the Gulf of Mexico primarily held by production • Proved reserves on a pro forma basis at historic high and more oily • Permian Basin Properties acquired on May 11, 2011 create next area of growth – 91% oil and liquids – Longer-lived proved reserves – Provides “predictable growth” opportunities • Strong cash flow – 2010 cash flow from operating activities of $465 million – LTM ended June 30, 2011 Adjusted EBITDA of $549 million • Active 2011 drilling and acquisition program 3
Company Operations Permian Basin • Proved Reserves: 175 Bcfe / GOM Shelf (1) 29 MMBoe • Proved Reserves: 397 Bcfe / • Acreage: ~30,000 Net 66 MMBoe • ~5% of Production • Acreage: 715,981 Gross / 459,542 Net GOM Deepwater • ~69% of Production • Proved Reserves: 168 Bcfe / 28 MMBoe • Acreage: 137,792 Gross / 93,670 Net • ~25% of Production Gulf Coast (1) Includes impact of Fairway acquisition. 4
Strategic Plan • Drill and develop our Permian Basin Properties • Expand acreage positions onshore • Continue to exploit our large GOM acreage position • Continue to pursue GOM acquisition opportunities, especially the deepwater • Pursue active and balanced drilling program to increase reserves and production • Take prudent and managed risk 5
2011 Plan Yielding Growth • Expanding into new areas onshore, including Permian Basin, East Texas and Gulf Coast • Recent acquisitions have provided significant reserve increases and upside opportunities • Oil and liquids now represent 57% of total proved reserves • During the first half of 2011, we participated in the drilling of 10 onshore wells and 3 offshore wells, all of which were successful • Amounts spent for capital expenditures and acquisitions through June 30, 2011 of $482 million – $224 million remaining of the original $310 million CAPEX budget for 2011 (original budget excluding acquisitions) • Drilling plan for 2011 has more than 50 wells between onshore and offshore including: – 10 wells planned for the GOM (4 completed, 6 remaining) – 42 to 48 onshore wells 6
Onshore
West Texas Permian Basin Overview • Next growth phase for the Company • Currently in several distinct areas • Current total net acreage of ~30,000 • Continue to expand acreage position • 6 drilling rigs currently running in Permian Basin 8
Wolfberry West Texas • Primary focus in the West Texas Permian Basin is the Wolfberry • Potential upside includes 20-acre spacing and deeper zones • Wells drilled to total vertical depths of 11,000’ to 13,000’ • Horizontal wells planned for late 2011 and for 2012 9
Newly Acquired Assets in West Texas : Martin, Dawson, Andrews & Gaines Counties • Acquired 21,400 net acres in May 2011 for $399.5 million • Currently producing 2,777 Boe per day from 90 wells • Proved reserves of 30 MMBoe and probable reserves of 25 MMBoe • EUR of ~100 MBoe net per well and 40 acre spacing on PUDs • Days to drill to total depth: 15 to 19 days (average of 17 days) • Oil and liquids are 91% of proved reserves 10 10
Permian Basin Acquisition Provides Long-term Growth • Low risk operations with a multi-year extensive drilling inventory – 450 to 500 drilling locations identified for future exploration and development – Proved reserves based on 40-acre spacing but nearby operators are using 20- acre spacing while others are drilling horizontal wells – Focused on improving operating efficiency • Plan for 3 drilling rigs working throughout remainder of 2011 – Primarily targeting the “Wolfberry” trend, but deeper targets have been tested and are producing – 2011 Capital Expenditures between $50 and $60 million – Drilled 14 wells and completed 28 wells since closing in the second quarter – Anticipate drilling a total of 27 to 33 development wells from close to the end of 2011 11 11
Other Permian Basin Activity • Have acquired approximately 9,100 net acres in Terry County • Anticipate 2011 drilling to include 8 to 11 exploratory wells • Have drilled 2 wells to date and are currently drilling 3 more in Terry county • Working interests vary from 35.6% to 80% 12 12
East Texas Activity • 2 prospective exploratory areas • 1 area covers approximately 146,000 net acres • Have drilled 1 well to date and will possibly drill 2 to 3 more by 2011 year end • Working interests vary from 35% to 100% • W&T is the operator in both prospective areas 13 13
