"Talisman achieved a strong financial performance this quarter" said John A. Manzoni, President & CEO. "We continue to grow and strengthen our shale portfolio in North America, and are looking forward to results from a number of significant exploration wells in the second half of the year.
"Total volumes in the quarter were 2% above the comparable number for 2010, although down from the first quarter, largely due to annual maintenance turnarounds. Excluding volumes from assets which have been sold, underlying growth in production is 13% year over year.
"We continue to see strong growth in North American shale volumes, which averaged approximately 470 mmcfe per day in the quarter, an increase of 178% over the same period last year and up 4% over the previous quarter. Our success in the Marcellus is continuing, with production averaging over 400 mmcf per day during the quarter.
"In the liquids-rich Eagle Ford shale play, we now have six rigs running and are planning to build to 10 by year-end. In the Montney shale, we are operating 10 rigs and closed the second transaction with Sasol during the quarter, for approximately C$1 billion, including certain future development costs.
"We are continuing to build our North American shale portfolio, with a sizeable land acquisition during the quarter, in what we hope will emerge as another successful liquids-rich play. Talisman now holds approximately 360,000 net acres in the Alberta Duvernay shale play, acquired at an average cost of about $2,000 per acre. We will begin drilling into the play in the second half of the year, with two rigs.
"In Southeast Asia, volumes continue to be strong, although down from a year ago, reflecting a one-time upward adjustment in the second quarter of last year and annual maintenance turnarounds. Natural gas prices in the region averaged about $9.80 per mcf during the quarter, reflecting strong regional demand and linkage to oil prices.
"North Sea volumes were down relative to both the previous year and the prior quarter, with annual maintenance turnarounds and natural production declines. Ongoing planned turnarounds will result in slightly lower North Sea production in the third quarter, with a return to higher volumes in the fourth quarter when work is completed. Work on future development projects continues and we have seen encouraging early test results at the Grosbeak discovery in Norway.
"The Yme project in Norway took a significant step forward with offshore installation completed at the end of the quarter; however there is still a significant amount of remaining work to commission the topsides. The amount of rework which is required on the platform has turned out to be substantial, and I believe we are now close to defining the full scope. In light of what we have found we are now moving our expectation for first production to the second quarter of 2012.
"In addition, we have seen a slight delay in the final stages of commissioning the non-operated Kitan project, and our Eagle Ford ramp-up was delayed by about three months.
"This combination of factors has led us to revise our current view of production for this year, including Colombia, to between 430,000 and 440,000 boe per day. Excluding Colombia, this represents only slight absolute growth over last year, although it represents between 7 - 10% organic growth from ongoing operations in 2010. It is, nonetheless, below our minimum expectation of 5% absolute growth for the year and I am very disappointed to miss our own target for the first time since I joined the company.
"The factors which have led to this reduction are specific and identifiable, and we remain confident in the underlying quality of the portfolio. Our growth target of 5 - 10% annually in the medium term remains firmly in place.
"There are continuing signs of success in the early testing phase of our international exploration portfolio, which has been largely focused on Colombia and Papua New Guinea to date. In the second half of the year, we plan to drill significant wells in Indonesia, Peru, Poland and the Kurdistan region of northern Iraq.
"Cash flow was $897 million during the quarter, up 14% year over year, reflecting higher oil prices. Similarly, earnings from operations, which adjust for non-operational impacts, were also up 14% to $168 million.
"Net income was $698 million compared to $572 million a year earlier and a loss of $326 million in the first quarter. This reflects the impact of changing commodity prices on the mark-to-market value of held-for-trading financial instruments and changes in the non-cash value of share based payments.
"We continue to expect that our cash exploration and development capital spending will be between $4 to $4.5 billion. In addition, we have spent $510 million on land purchases in the quarter.
"I am confident in the structure of our portfolio to deliver long-term, profitable growth of 5 - 10%. The project set-backs we have experienced are localized, but nevertheless, reinforce the need to continue the improvements we have begun across our business to address project execution and delivery. We can look forward to getting these issues behind us, and to drilling a number of important exploration wells through the second half. The underlying financial performance was strong this quarter, and we will continue to focus on effectively delivering against our strategy, with our strong portfolio of assets."

Cash flow was $897 million for the quarter, compared to $790 million a year ago as a result of higher oil prices, which more than offset increased royalties, cash taxes and realized losses on held-for-trading financial instruments.
During the second quarter, net income increased to $698 million from $572 million a year ago, also due to higher prices. Talisman recorded a first quarter loss of $326 million but saw a substantial shift in both non-cash share based payments and the mark-to-market value of held-for-trading financial instruments.
Earnings from operations were up 14% to $168 million compared to $148 million a year earlier and $157 million in the previous quarter.
The company's depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expense was $479 million in the second quarter, up 17% over last year as a result of the Auk North field start-up, Equion acquisition, higher production volumes and the change in unlifted oil volumes. Dry hole expense was $36 million and includes an unsuccessful exploration well in Papua New Guinea. Exploration expense increased by $67 million relative to 2010 as a result of seismic activities in Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Colombia and North America.
Net debt increased from $2.5 billion to $3 billion in the second quarter, reflecting a $510 million land acquisition in North America.

Netbacks in the second quarter averaged $39.48/boe, up 36% from a year ago and 3% lower than the first quarter. Talisman's realized price (before hedging) of $68.47/boe was 33% higher than 2010, due principally to higher global oil and liquids prices. WTI oil prices averaged $103/bbl, up 31 % from the same period last year. NYMEX natural gas prices averaged $4.36/mmbtu, compared to $4.07/mmbtu a year ago.
Talisman's royalty rate averaged 18% during the quarter, up 1% from the same period last year. Unit operating expenses increased by 15% over the same period last year due to more expansive turnarounds in the North Sea, well maintenance in Southeast Asia, the change in unlifted oil volumes, additional operations in Colombia and the stronger British pound.
North America
In North America, production averaged 1,016 mmcfe/d (169,000 boe/d) for the second quarter, up 7% from a year ago. Capital spending was $433 million in the second quarter, including $388 million related to shale activities.
Production from shale averaged 470 mmcfe/d (78,000 boe/d) in the second quarter, an increase of 178% over the previous year, and an increase of 4% over the previous quarter. Conventional production averaged 546 mmcfe/d (91,000 boe/d) in the second quarter.
Talisman spent $510 million on land acquisitions in Alberta during the quarter. The company's position in the Duvernay shale now totals 360,000 net acres, with an average acquisition cost of approximately $2,000 per acre. Talisman plans drilling into the play in the second half of this year with two rigs.
In the Marcellus shale, Talisman USA drilled 39 gross wells (28 net) during the quarter for a total of 65 gross wells (49 net) for the first six months of 2011. Production averaged 406 mmcf/d for the quarter, up 16% from the previous quarter and up 184% from the second quarter of 2010. Talisman now expects to be at the upper end of its annual production guidance of 350 - 400 mmcf/d as it builds out new wells and infrastructure in the eastern part of the play.
In the Farrell Creek area of the Montney shale, Talisman drilled 12 gross (six net) development wells during the quarter for a total of 20 gross wells (10 net) in the first six months of 2011. Net production averaged 22 mmcf/d for the quarter. The company currently has 10 rigs running. Overall, in the Montney play, we continue to be on track to meet our production guidance for the year.
Talisman has closed a second deal with Sasol, selling a 50% working interest in its Cypress A properties for a total consideration of C$1.05 billion, consisting of $257 million in cash and funding certain future development costs. The two companies have commenced a feasibility study on a gas-to-liquids plant in Western Canada.
In the Eagle Ford shale, Talisman USA drilled 10 gross (four net) horizontal development wells during the quarter for a total of 19 gross wells (seven net) in the first six months of 2011. Production averaged 16 mmcfe/d for the quarter. The company has six rigs operating in the area, with plans to increase this to 10 by year-end.
Earlier this year, the partners agreed to use dedicated frac crews in the Eagle Ford rather than pay significantly higher spot rates. These crews are up and running; however, the result will be fewer wells and lower production for the year than anticipated. During the quarter, the partners also reached agreement to acquire additional acreage in the Eagle Ford.
Production from Talisman's conventional properties averaged 417 mmcf/d of natural gas and 21,600 bbls/d of liquids for the second quarter.
North Sea
North Sea production averaged 105,500 boe/d, compared to 136,000 boe/d in the previous quarter and 114,960 boe/d a year ago. Production was lower due to planned annual maintenance in both the UK and Norway, and natural field declines.
Production in the UK averaged 73,200 boe/d, a 20% reduction from the previous quarter and an increase of 14% over the previous year, primarily driven by the start-up of Auk North. Against the previous quarter, production was reduced by a turnaround, completed as planned at Piper/Tweedsmuir, as well as natural declines at Tweedsmuir. Production is expected to be impacted further in the third quarter with shutdowns planned at Claymore, Tartan, Buchan and Ross/Blake.
Production in Norway averaged 32,300 boe/d, a 36% decrease over the same period in 2010 and a 27% decrease from the previous quarter. Volumes decreased quarter on quarter due to completion of maintenance turnarounds at Brage and Veslefrikk, with similar impacts expected in the third quarter due to a planned turnaround at Rev. Production also continues to be impacted by natural declines at Rev.
Work on future developments continued in the quarter, with Talisman spending $307 million in the North Sea. A fourth production well in the UK Auk North field was successfully completed in early July, and development wells at Gyda and Veslefrikk were also successfully completed in Norway. A gaslift project has increased production potential from Gyda by approximately 20%. A sidetrack is planned in early 2012 at Rev to mitigate the natural decline in the field.
The Yme project took a significant step forward with offshore installation at the end of the quarter. During the quarter, Talisman completed some required rework onshore; however, there is still a significant amount of remaining work to commission the topsides. The company now expects first production from Yme will commence in the second quarter of 2012.
Southeast Asia
Production for the second quarter was 116,200 boe/d, 1% higher than the previous period and 7% lower than same period last year. During the quarter, natural gas prices averaged $9.78/mcf. The company invested $22 million in development activities.
In Malaysia, production averaged 37,500 boe/d, 4% higher than last quarter, and 10% lower than the same period last year. Liquids were higher in 2010, largely due to a one-time redetermination of the company's working interest in the South Angsi field, with an associated increase of 7,000 boe/d in that period. Gas sales averaged 119 mmcf/d, 4% higher than the previous quarter, reflecting optimization initiatives at the PM3 facilities and strong regional demand. To meet fast growing gas demand across Malaysia, Talisman is working closely with its joint venture partners to develop further initiatives at PM3 to increase gas production over the coming months.
In Indonesia, production was 74,200 boe/d, 1% higher than last quarter and 5% lower than the same period last year, reflecting increased maintenance activities and planned plant shutdowns at Corridor and Tangguh during the current period. The Jambi Merang project delivered first gas sales in April, three months ahead of schedule, and attained a daily production of 76 mmcf/d gross sales gas (19 mmcf/d net sales) by the end of second quarter. Volumes are expected to reach 120 mmcf/d gross sales gas (30 mmcf/d net sales gas) in the third quarter. The first of two planned Corridor infill wells was drilled, completed and brought on production. The Sumpal 6 well was brought on stream and is currently flowing at 35 mmcf/d gross raw gas (8 mmcf/d net sales gas) and it is expected to ramp up to 120 mmcf/d gross raw gas (28 mmcf/d net sales gas) by the end of next quarter.
At Corridor, the Letang Tengah Rawa optimization project was sanctioned during the quarter and is expected to deliver 45 mmcf/d gross sales gas (16 mmcf/d net sales gas) to the premium priced Caltex/Duri gas sales contract from the beginning of 2013.
Following maintenance turnarounds in the first half of the year, the two Tangguh production trains are now operating at close to nameplate capacity.
In Vietnam, production averaged 1,800 bbls/d. The Hai Su Trang and Hai Su Den development is progressing and is expected to be sanctioned in the fourth quarter of this year.
Production averaged 2,600 bbls/d in Australia. The company expects a slight delay in commissioning the non-operated Kitan project, which is still anticipated in the fourth quarter.
International Exploration
International exploration spending in the second quarter of $282 million was focused on exploration and appraisal wells in Papua New Guinea (PNG), Colombia and the North Sea, and active seismic programs in Southeast Asia and Latin America.
Talisman is on target to participate in seven exploration and appraisal wells in the PNG Foreland Basin in 2011. Seismic acquisition for the current program was completed at the end of June. The Stanley-2 and Stanley-4 appraisal wells and the Ubuntu-1 and Awapa-1 exploration wells have been drilled, and the Siphon-1 exploration well was spudded at the end of June. The Awapa well was dry; however, this was a commitment well which was not part of the gas aggregation strategy, and we remain confident in our objective of successfully aggregating 2-4 tcf.
In Malaysia, the Sabah 3D seismic acquisition program commenced in the second quarter, and the drilling program is expected to begin in 2012. In Vietnam, 3D seismic in Blocks 135 and 136 concluded in early July, and a 2D seismic program is on target to commence in the third quarter. A Production Sharing Contract for Blocks 135 and 136 was signed in April with PetroVietnam; Talisman is the operator and has a 40% working interest.
In Indonesia, the South Makassar seismic acquisition program was completed in the second quarter, and the company is on target to spud the Lempuk well in the third quarter. Talisman signed a farmout agreement with Total E&P in three of Talisman's blocks in South Makassar (33 - 50% equity). Total is the largest gas producer in Indonesia and brings significant deepwater experience and potential access to markets. The farmout agreement is subject to government approval.
In Colombia, Talisman completed drilling the sixth stratigraphic well in Block 6. The partners in the block are in the process of converting Block 6 to an Exploration and Production Contract and finalizing plans to fully appraise the Guairuro discovery, with a possible 3D seismic acquisition program in late 2011.
In the Niscota block, the Huron-2 appraisal well spudded on June 30, 2011 and is currently drilling. The Huron-3 appraisal well is expected to spud by mid-year 2012.
In Block 8, Talisman completed the first phase (245 kilometers) of seismic data acquisition and a two-well stratigraphic drilling program is expected to commence in the fourth quarter.
In Block 9, a six month production test of the Akacias-1 discovery commenced in late May and is currently producing approximately 1,600 bbls/d (gross) of oil. The company is looking to acquire 200 kilometers of 2D seismic data and initiate a four-well appraisal well program later this year. A re-entry and test of the Humadea discovery well and a Humadea exploration well are scheduled in the first quarter 2012.
Since the closing of the acquisition of Equion Energia (49% net Talisman), production has averaged 12,000 boe/d (net Talisman). Equion is planning to drill two development wells in the Piedemonte field in the second half of 2011. These wells are part of a full-scale expansion of the Piedemonte complex, with project sanction planned for the first half of 2012.
In Peru, Talisman is progressing towards a fourth quarter spud of the Situche Norte exploration well. This is a follow-up well to the successful Situche Central 3X exploration well which was drilled in 2010.
In Norway, the Grosbeak appraisal well on PL378 reached target depth in the second quarter and the Brent formation has been successfully tested at 4,800 boe/d (gross). Talisman is also participating in the Skalle and Peking Duck exploration wells, both of which are expected to reach target depth in the third quarter.
In Poland, seismic acquisition is complete and Talisman remains on target to spud its first two shale gas wells later this year.
In the Kurdistan region of northern Iraq, the Topkhana-1 exploration well in Block K39 is drilling ahead and the Kurdamir-2 well in Block K44 is expected to spud in the fourth quarter.

Oil and Gas Information
Throughout this news release, Talisman makes reference to production volumes. Unless otherwise stated, such production volumes are stated on a gross basis, which means they are stated prior to the deduction of royalties and similar payments. In the US, net production volumes are reported after the deduction of these amounts.
Barrel of oil equivalent (boe) throughout this news release is calculated at a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet (mcf) of natural gas for one barrel of oil (bbl). This news release also includes reference to mcf equivalents (mcfes) which are calculated at a conversion rate of one barrel of oil to 6,000 cubic feet of gas. Boes and mcfes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 mcf:1 bbl and an mcfe conversion ration of 1 bbl: 6 mcf are based on an energy equivalence conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
Talisman also discloses its company netbacks in this news release. Netbacks per boe are calculated by deducting from sales price associated royalties, operating and transportation costs.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Included in this news release are references to financial measures commonly used in the oil and gas industry such as cash flow, earnings from operations, net debt and capital expenditure including exploration expensed. These terms are not defined by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Consequently, these are referred to as non-GAAP measures. Talisman's reported results of cash flow, earnings from operations, net debt and capital expenditure including exploration expensed may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Cash flow should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, cash provided by operating, investing and financing activities or net income as determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of the company's performance or liquidity. Cash flow per share is cash flow divided by the average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted cash flow per share is cash flow divided by the diluted number of common shares outstanding during the period, as reported in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements filed on July 28, 2011. A reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to cash flow is provided above.

1. Unrealized (gain) loss on financial instruments relates to the change
in the period of the mark-to-market value of the company's outstanding
commodity derivatives that are classified as held-for-trading financial
instruments.
2. Share-based payments relate principally to the mark-to-market value of
the company's outstanding stock options and cash units at June 30. The
company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the
fair value of its share-based payment plans.
3. Deferred tax adjustments include deferred taxes relating to unrealized
foreign exchange gains and losses associated with the impact of
fluctuations in the Canadian dollar on foreign denominated debt,
intercompany loans and tax pool balances, as well as a remeasurement of
UK deferred tax assets and liabilities in response to a statutory rate
change.
4. This is a non-GAAP measure.
Earnings from operations are calculated by adjusting the company's net income per the financial statements, for certain items of a non-operational nature, on an after tax basis. The company uses this information to evaluate performance of core operational activities on a comparable basis between periods. Earnings from operations per share are earnings from operations divided by the average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings from operations per share are earnings from operations divided by the diluted number of common shares outstanding during the period, as reported in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements filed on July 28, 2011. A reconciliation of net income to earnings from operations is provided above.
