$CNQ Canadian Natural +4% as Q2 earnings beat estimates, cuts capital spending

Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ +3.9%) opens with strong gains after reporting better than expected Q2 earnings and announcing plans to cut capex.

Citing strong H1 results, CNQ raises the mid-point of its 2017 annual liquids and boe production guidance by 11K bbl/day and 3K boe/day, respectively, while lowering its full-year capital program by ~C$180M from earlier plans for C$3.9B in spending.

For Q2, CNQ says total production volumes averaged a record 913.1K boe/day, up 4% Q/Q and 16.5% Y/Y, despite continued reliability issues at a third party natural gas facility.

CNQ says cash flow climbed to $1.73B from $938M in the year-ago quarter, and reduced debt by ~$1.2B from year-end 2016.

Canadian Natural Resources Ltd. (NYSE:CNQ) is engaged in the entire business process of crude oil, NGLs, and natural gas production, from acquisition to marketing to sales.

They operate primarily in Western Canada, although they have a presence in the North Sea and off the coasts of Africa as well. Similar to OXY, CNQ felt the burden of slumping natural resource prices and gave away over 16% of its share price since this time last year.

They do have a dividend yield of 1.4%, although current investors would have missed the boat if not holding going into December 12th of last year. In Q4 of 2011, CNQ occupied almost 5% of Pickens' portfolio.

He has since traded out of the stock according to his last 13F filing. Billionaire Ken Fisher of Fisher Asset Management is on his way to doing the same, reducing his position by 81% for the same filing period.

Good Q & A from the conference call. The upside here is streaming.

Joe Citarrella - Goldman Sachs

In terms of just following up on Horizon here on future phases is, we are waiting for more detailed cost estimates. I was hoping you could offer some early thoughts on how you expect costs to compare to the first phase. I mean, should we be thinking about close to the $88,000 per barrel a day that we had from Phase 1 or anticipating anything meaningfully different here? Thank you.

Steve Laut

I think Joe, right now we're still in the final stages of it. We're kind of in a unique window right now. And the cost estimates that we've had before may look a little high compared to what we are able to execute in this environment.

However, a concern is, once you start announcing projects, we could get the industry as a whole back into that inflationary period, and we would have cost pressures again. So all our execution strategy is built around giving us the maximum flexibility and the ability to control cost and stop and start as we go forward.

As far as $88,000 or $89,000 which we did Phase 1 for, I think it would be difficult to achieve that level of cost going forward in expansions.

So, it will be higher than the $89,000 in Phase 1. Just how much higher, we haven't nailed down exactly yet.

Joe Citarrella - Goldman Sachs

Got it. And similar lines on Kirby, hoping you just provide some additional color there. I mean, you're expanding the whole project to 70,000 to 100,000 per day now, and you mentioned capital of about 31,000 for the first phase. Should we be thinking about a lower capital spend for the remainder of the project given expected synergies? And also any thoughts on timing for production here? Thank you.

Steve Laut

So Kirby Phase 1, (first) team and his 23rd team, and then the oil will come up you know around let's say, (diesel) won't be like cyclic where it comes out at you right away. So it will take some time, probably in 2014 when we start production.

As far as costs going forward for the expansion on Kirby Phase 2 and the de-bottlenecking we'd expect to be able to leverage the infrastructure we've built here for Kirby Phase 1. And the de-bottlenecking for sure will give us better cost energies. So we think it will be lower.

At this point in time, we haven't quantified how much lower that will be, but we expect it to trend lower for future expansions. We'd also expect to see operating cost to be a little bit lower with expansions.

Operator

Our next question is from Mark Polak from Scotia Capital.

Mark Polak - Scotia Capital

A quick question for you. Now that you've acquired the (interspersed) lands around Kirby, that expansion and the bottleneck, should we think about that sort of pushing out Grouse and all the other projects a little further and sort of coming on in that 2016 timeframe?

Peter Janson

That's a good question. Mark, we're still looking at it. What we're planning to do with both Grouse and Birch Mountain East is that we're looking now at the possibility of making regulatory applications for both of those in 2011 and trying to put Kirby 2 in there in between. So we're not sure exactly how the schedule would be, but there maybe some juggling of schedules. You would think just logically Kirby 2 would probably become before; however, Grouse is looking very good, so we may try to do Grouse first or very close together with Kirby 2.

Mark Polak - Scotia Capital

Okay, but no chance to the overall, kind of adding 30,000 to 60,000 barrels at average 2 to 3 years? Is that still sort of the pace you are comfortable with?

Peter Janson

We are very comfortable with that pace, and we think basically the contracting and construction market can handle that. If we get going too far, you are going to outrun the construction market and overrun the engineering firm's ability to deliver for you.

Mark Polak - Scotia Capital

And just curious what you are seeing in terms of inflation as you're working through the latter stages of, you know, looking at Horizon here we've seen costs go up on (curl), and some (inaudible) mentioned this morning that after a fairly sharp reduction and the slowdown of '08, '09 costs are coming up, so you are getting busy as you look at that pipeline. Just curious what you're thinking there?

Peter Janson

We are Mark, concerned about inflation and about the ability to reignite inflation. I will say that on our projects on Tranche 2 we are tracking below our control estimate or cost estimate at this point in time and that's one of the reasons why we reduced capital spending in 2010 because of their ability to do their work with less. So we are seeing our ability to do it for less, and we (constricted). But going forward, I think it's all a matter of activity. So it becomes very difficult to say that going forward you're going to be able to do it for less. But we haven't seen inflation yet on that side.

Operator

Our next question is from George Toriola from UBS Securities.

George Toriola - UBS Securities

The question is around operating costs in the North Sea. Obviously in the quarter, you had some other issues. But just looking at that business, where would you expect operating costs to be, and what are the drivers you have to the extent that you can bring costs down, what drivers do you have?

Doug Proll

The biggest driver in the North Sea for operating costs are the production volumes. Mostly operating costs are essentially fixed. So we didn't have as we had in the third quarter all the turnarounds, and that's the time to do it is in the summer and the water conditions are better. Your production's down and your operating costs go up significantly.

So for us, maintaining production volumes is the biggest driver, and increasing volumes if we can. As you know, we started up a drill string in Ninian this year. Obviously we took a hiatus in 2009. Mainly because of the uncertainty in the global financial market, we want to reduce our capital spending. As a result, there's a lot of safety-critical work we have to do here in 2010 and 2011 we had to get to before we get to really see some of the juicier production volume adds. So as we get to that we'll see production more stable and operating costs stabilize as well.

George Toriola - UBS Securities

Sort of, where do you expect that to settle out at? What sort of numbers would you expect?

Doug Proll

We're saying for this year, operating costs are $30 to $31 a barrel. I would expect us to be very close to that in 2011.

George Toriola - UBS Securities

And then quickly on Horizon, is it fair to say that as you push Phase 1 volumes towards sort of design capacities here that you are now getting to test some of the pieces of equipment there, and that's where you're starting to see some of this reliability issues. Is that a fair way to look at it?

Doug Proll

Actually George, I don't think that's the case actually. When we're at higher volumes we actually run better. It's when we have upsets; we go down and go back up, that's when we have issues with reliability; starting equipment up and pulling it down causes reliability issues. When we run at design capacity, that's the best time we run; everything runs smooth, it just spurs along.

So, really what we're finding here, to be blunt, the hydrogen exchanger that we had here was a manufacturing error here that occurred and was not detected by their quality control or our quality control. I don't know if you could have detected it actually. And it took this long before it actually generated a leak. So we're still working through some of those issues which occurred in that 2007, 2008 period with all the hyperinflation, and every vendor was trying to get as much equipment out the door as possible.

And so we still have some of those things coming back to bite us.

George Toriola - UBS Securities

So it's not really sort of the pushing the envelope, but more and more issues from start-up so to speak.

Doug Proll

Not at all. When we run at higher rates, that's when we run best.

Peter Janson

That's what the equipment is designed to run, that it mixes sweet spot at that rate.

This year, Canadian Natural's huge Horizon oil sands project will start pumping out oil for the first time. Unlike conventional oil assets, this one could produce steady cash flow for decades.

In addition to one of the largest oil sands projects on the planet, Canadian owns a vast amount of other energy assets in Canada, West Africa and the North Sea. Overall, Canadian Natural should gush $2 billion in free cash flow in 2008. The company could double that number in 2009 as the Horizon project expands. If Canadian Natural actually achieves these cash-flow totals, its stock could be worth twice what it trades for today.

The stock is not risk-free, of course. Oil prices could sink. Tax regimes could get uglier (especially the fickle Canadian tax regime). Currency fluctuations could undermine investment returns. But overall, if you want to own an emerging energy behemoth, Canadian Natural is very strong candidate.

Canadian Natural Resources Limited Announces Fourth Quarter 2007 Update on the Progress of the Horizon Oil Sands Project
February 12, 2008 5:00 a.m.

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - Feb. 12, 2008) - Canadian Natural Resources Limited (TSX:CNQ) (NYSE:CNQ) ("Canadian Natural") is pleased to provide its regular quarterly update on the Horizon Oil Sands Project ("Horizon Project"). Commenting on fourth quarter progress on the Horizon Oil Sands Project, Real Doucet, Sr. Vice President, Oil Sands stated, "We achieved 90% completion of the Horizon Project by year-end 2007, a major accomplishment, which remains on track for first oil in the third quarter of 2008. The remaining 10%, however, is in many ways the toughest as it is the most labour intensive portion of the Horizon Project. Unfortunately, mid to late January and early February saw a significant deterioration in labour productivity on the construction site as much colder than normal weather seriously curtailed activity. The weather also affected the commissioning schedule of certain plants; however, at present this is not expected to have any impact on our targeted completion of Phase 1." "As of December 31, 2007 our forecasted total costs of the Horizon Project were at 13.4% over our $6.8 billion Board of Directors authorization. We just completed a thorough review of the productivity that we have recently experienced at the Horizon Project construction site and have determined that should no improvements in productivity be achieved through the remainder of construction, then the cost estimate for Phase 1 of the Horizon Project would need to be increased to 28% above the original $6.8 billion Board authorization. If we can regain targeted labour efficiencies and productivity, this overage could be reduced to approximately 25% above the original $6.8 billion Board authorization. This range of outcomes will result in an on-stream cost of less than $80,000 bbl/d of capacity, including the benefits of the significant pre-build capital invested for Phase 2/3. In the fourth quarter of 2007, we reached many significant milestones including completion of the tailings pond, filling of the raw water pond and preparing two tanks to receive start-up diluent in January. We have experienced minor slippage in certain non-critical path plants where mechanical completion has moved from the end of the second quarter to early in the third quarter - having no expected impact however on targeted Project completion. Our critical path plants, Delayed Coker / Diluent Recovery Unit and Hydrotreater remain on track for first oil in the third quarter of this year. In parallel with completing major systems, we are getting ready for operations. Our rate of operations hiring and training has gained significant momentum with 100% of Mining, 89% of Bitumen Extraction, 80% of Upgrading and 76% of Utilities and Offsites staffing requirements hired to date. We have also now awarded all of the maintenance contracts, with these contractors immediately mobilizing to site in the last part of the fourth quarter of 2007. We remain focused on timely completion of Phase 1, while getting ready to operate the new facilities. Meanwhile, following Board authorization to proceed with Tranche 2 of our next expansion, we were immediately able to award a contract for an additional Ore Prep Plant to an existing contractor that is performing well. In addition, other long lead equipment (Coke Drums and Reactors) for Phase 2/3 will be delivered to site during the first quarter of 2008, as we look forward to successful construction and completion of future phases."
