We wish him continued success in fulfilling his new duties at KPC. 2013 was another banner year for Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company (KUFPEC). In this our 32nd year, we took strong steps to follow through on our 2030 strategy and continued to return value to our shareholder. I am pleased to present KUFPEC’s 32nd annual report together with the consolidated financial statements for the calendar year ended 31 December 2013. On behalf of the KUFPEC team, I express our sincere appreciation and gratitude to His Highness the Amir of the State of Kuwait Shaikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, His Highness the Crown Prince Shaikh Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah and His Highness the Prime Minister Shaikh Jaber Al-Mubarak Al-Hamad Al-Sabah. We wish them continued success in leading our beloved country towards further prosperity and a better future. A TRANSITION YEAR This year was a period of transition for KUFPEC in many ways. First, our shareholder Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) reconstituted our Board of Directors and our executive management team, all as part of the KPC-wide restructuring initiated in May. We are proud that our former Chairman and Managing Director, Mr. Nizar M. AlAdsani, is now the Deputy Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of KPC. GROWTH THROUGH ACQUISITION… SAILING NORTHWARD Second, 2013 heralded remarkable changes to KUFPEC’s growth strategy. This year can best be described as a positioning for KUFPEC to embark on an unprecedented level of activity in 2014 and beyond through a combination of rationalization of our existing production portfolio and a set of aggressive acquisitions that have the capability of truly transforming our company. In 2013, we completed five new acquisitions consisting of 10 assets, most notably the corporate acquisition of Norske AEDC AS which expanded our global footprint into the North Sea. We coupled this acquisition with the opening of our new regional office in Stavanger, Norway as KUFPEC’s sixth regional office. Other 2013 acquisitions included a 26.8% interest in the Galoc Field in the Philippines, a 5% interest in the Southeast Sumatra and Offshore Northwest Java PSCs in Indonesia, an additional 4.1% equity in the Mutineer Exeter JV in Australia and an additional 15.3% working interest in the Yacheng Field in China. KUFPEC also farmed in to several new exploration blocks in UK Continental Shelf and purchased 30% working interests in two licenses in the Norwegian Continental Shelf. Recognizing that exploration provides the best potential for a robust future, we began in 2013 the process of finalizing eight new exploration projects: one in Yemen, three in China and four in Pakistan. Acquisitions, however, have not been the only focus of the company in 2013. We rationalized our portfolio by divesting five non-core assets and improved the efficiency of our nonoperated assets in collaboration with the operators. STRONG SUPPORT FROM OUR SHAREHOLDER Third, in a powerful expression of its confidence in KUFPEC’s expansion strategy and to enhance our capabilities and scale to compete internationally, the Supreme Petroleum Council of the State of Kuwait authorized a six-fold increase of our share capital in 2013, from KD 200 million to KD 1.2 billion. We have already begun to deploy this additional share capital to fund our 2030 growth plans. THE INTERNATIONAL BANKING COMMUNITY SIGNS ON TO OUR STRATEGY Fourth, even while we were in the process of formalizing the increase in share capital, we received the endorsement of a syndicate comprised of every major Kuwaiti bank and a constellation of international banks through the provision of a US$1 billion corporate loan to fund our ambitious growth strategy. This independent validation of KUFPEC’s growth potential and confidence in its management team provides further support to our 2030 strategy. awareness of critical health and environmental issues, including awareness campaigns for breast cancer, better health in Ramadan, Healthy Heart Risk Factors for the workplace, stress management, waste management and a blood drive. We are proud to report that over 90% of our staff completed HSE training this year. STABLE PERFORMANCE Fifth, operationally, KUFPEC maintained its level of efficiency during 2013. Our average production for the year was 74,778 boepd compared to 74,875 boepd in 2012. We were able to maintain our production levels despite several factors, including deferment of some work programs due to political turmoil (Yemen and South Sudan), start-up delays and the natural decline from mature fields. KUFPEC’s hydrocarbon reserves stood at 335 mmboe by the end of December 2013 versus 344 mmboe in 2012. To be a successful operator, we must be a contributing member of the societies in which we operate. Accordingly, our community programs included the construction of a medical clinic in Pakistan, sponsorship of the Royal Flying Doctors Service and an employee fundraising campaign to support the victims of the Syrian crisis. We also launched a smartphone application in 2013 tied to our successful 2012 Birds of Kuwait book. Financially, KUFPEC reported an after tax net profit of US$ 170 million compared to the previous year’s profit of US$ 201 million, while year-end total operating revenues grew to US$ 1.4 billion from the previous year’s operating revenues of US$ 1.3 billion HSE&C...UNREMITTING COMMITMENT Sixth, KUFPEC had another very good year with respect to Health, Safety, Environment and Community performance. During 2013, we initiated several noteworthy events and programs to promote OUR PEOPLE… THE REAL DRIVER Undoubtedly, none of this year’s achievements would have been possible without the hard work, dedication and commitment of the KUFPEC team. When I joined KUFPEC in May 2013, my former colleagues at KPC congratulated me on joining a new family of dedicated employees who work as one team to achieve our targets and pull one another up as we encounter new challenges. I am proud to be a member of this family. Nawaf Saud Al-Nasir Al-Sabah Chief Executive Officer 9 DEDICATE The energy industry is often discussed in terms of capital investment, expenses and growth returns, while actually, the real driver in any business is the people. Unquestionably, we have a lot of work to do ahead, but we are quite confident that KUFPEC’s current base of employees, whose unremitting commitment to the values and mission that make KUFPEC the company it is today, puts us in a very strong position to make the most of our opportunities and maintain a momentous pace towards further success in a highly competitive industry. ED PEOPLE Hence, KUFPEC continues to recruit skilled and experienced personnel in all its regional offices as well as its Kuwait headquarters, while effectively optimizing current human resources. As of December 31, 2013, we had a total of 257 employees on-board, over 68 percent of whom are Kuwaiti nationals at Head Office. The level of Kuwaitization increased from 66.86% in 2012 to 68.13% by end 2013. 11 KUFPEC AREAS OF OPERATION KUFPEC is currently active in 14 countries, with operations grouped within four core areas spanning 4 continents and managed by six Regional Offices in Egypt, Tunisia, Indonesia, Australia, Norway and Pakistan. KUFPEC continues deepening the diversity of its workforce and recruiting the most talented people from the various communities in which it operates its business.

KUFPEC, Pakistan applied for two more exploration blocks as operator (Makhad EL & Paharpur EL). These blocks are expected to be awarded by mid-2014. In Yemen, KUFPEC is actively evaluating exploratory acreages in the country and is hoping to get exploration blocks during 2014. The production from Jannah block was disrupted several times during 2013 due to the sabotage in the main SEPOC export pipeline. On the other hand, the field production capacity of the East Shabwa block has declined due to natural depletion of the field. In Pakistan, seismic acquisition in Jati Exploration License (75%, KUFPEC operated) was started in late Nov 2013 and 50% was completed as of 31st Dec 2013. Plans are to drill the first exploratory well by mid-December 2014. Badhra B North-2 (Badhra Area B) was successfully drilled and encountered additional sand bodies in Mughal Kot formation. The well was tested ~30 MMscfpd from A&B sands of Mughal Kot Formation. Lundali-1, an exploratory well in the Sukhpur area was successfully drilled and initially tested 33 MMscfpd from Khadro Sands. The well put on production under 12 months Extended Well Testing (EWT). We are planning to drill & test Mughal Kot sands in Bhit gas field by Q3, 2014. Deepening of Badhra South-1 will be commenced by early Jan 2014 to test the deeper targets of Lower Goru and Sember in the southern part of the Badhra structure. Qadirpur Pirkoh compression project completion was delayed with the third compressor to be commissioned in January 2014. Two more extended reached wells were drilled to drain the gas from northern culmination which is underneath the Indus flood plain. The Zamzama field is on natural decline. During 2013, one water disposable well was drilled to dispose of extra produced water. In Kadanwari field, three abandoned wells were re-drilled and tested for the tight sand potential. The first two wells did not produce commercially while the third well is under testing. During 2013, the Kadanwari & the Bhit gas facilities worked at full capacity. Government approved development of the Zarghun South field under the Tight Gas scenario. Field development activities are continuing and 12.5 kilometers of pipeline laid for the Zarghun South field site. In 2013, plans were made for deepening of Badhra South-1 to test the deeper targets of Lower Goru and Chiltan with estimated recoverable resources of about 216 BCF. Two new development wells were also planned to be drilled in Badhra during 2014. During 2013, a supplemental agreement was executed to reduce the tax rate from 52.5% to 40% under the Finance Act of 2012. PAKISTAN Jati Exploration License (KUFPEC: 75%) The highly prospective Jati Block was granted to KUFPEC in 2012 with operatorship and minimum work program of 500 kilometers of new 2D seismic acquisition and drilling two exploratory wells. During 2013, geological studies included petrophysical analysis of existing wells and the reprocessing of existing 2D and 3D seismic data. The new 2D seismic acquisition during 2013 is on schedule to support drilling the first exploratory well starting in late 2014. Bhit & Badhra Fields (KUFPEC: 34 %) During 2013, the average field gross production was 52,490 boepd (KUFPEC net of 17,847 boepd) which was higher than forecast due to drilling two new delineation wells. Plans were made in 2013 to drill an exploratory well in 2014 to test the Mughalkot Formation potential of about 400 BCF gross reserves. Currently all the gas wells are producing with well head compression and the Bhit gas processing plant is running at full capacity. Bhit and Badhra field total production was 113 BCF, which was above the planned ACQ of 85 BCF. Qadirpur Field (KUFPEC: 13.25%) Gas production from the Qadirpur field during 2013 averaged 77,136 boepd (KUFPEC net 9,823 boepd). Gas production was maintained in 2013 by refurbishing two compressors and drilling two extended reached wells underneath the Indus flood plain. A production lease extension was received in 2013 with a new expiration date in 2017 under the Petroleum Concession Agreement (PCA). A supplemental government agreement was executed in 2013 reducing the tax rate from 55% to 40% under the Finance Act 2012. Kadanwari Field (KUFPEC: 15.789%) Production from the Kadanwari gas field averaged 17,767 boepd (KUFPEC net 2,805 boepd) as compared to 16,048 boepd during 2012. The production increase was the result of drilling five development wells during 2013 in the south western part of the field. The Kadanwari rejuvenation project also initiated the evaluation of fracturing the tight reservoirs. Three abandoned wells were selected for reentry and Multi-Fracs in a tight reservoir. The first two wells did not show significant gas production but the third well is being flow tested. During 2013, the Kadanwari gas plant ran at full capacity. 15 DIRECTORS’ REPORT ON ACTIVITIES THE MIDDLE EAST REGION Zamzama Field (KUFPEC: 9.375%) Gas production from the Zamzama field averaged 51,501 boepd during 2013 (KUFPEC net 4,828 boepd) as compared to 57,617 boepd in 2012 due to natural field decline. One water disposal well was drilled to inject increasing amounts of produced water. An Integrated Reservoir Study of the Khadro Formation in 2013 has resulted in plans to drill an additional production well during 2014. Zarghun South Field (KUFPEC: 3.75%) Government approved the Supplemental Development Plan with the field under a Tight Gas Scenario. In 2013, the Operator laid 12.5 kilometers of pipeline and continued other development work at the field site. Sukhpur EL Field (KUFPEC: 25%) The exploratory Lundali-1 well was drilled in early 2013 and initially tested 33 MMscfpd from Khadro Sands. The Lundali-1 was approved for a 12 month extended production well flow test starting in October 2013 and was producing at 7.5 mmcfpd at the end of 2013. Plans are to acquire 3D seismic in the north western part of the block in lieu of a second exploratory well during 2014 to extend this Khadro discovery. Jannah Block 5 (KUFPEC: 20%) Oil production from Jannah for 2013 averaged 27,742 bopd (KUFPEC net 1,979 bopd). The Marib export pipeline in Block 18 was breached on different occasions during 2013, which caused a disruption of Block 5 production. A total of 59 days of Force Majeure was declared for the year of 2013. Drilling activities were resumed during 2013 after a period of no activity in 2012 due to the security situation in the country. A total of 4 wells were drilled during 2013. YEMEN East Shabwa Block 10 (KUFPEC: 14.2857%) The East Shabwa average production during 2013 was 46,901 bopd (KUFPEC net 3,300 bopd). The average field production decreased by 23% compared to 2012. The production drop is due to a sharp unpredicted decline after a water breakthrough in some of the basement wells. Al Barqa Block 7 (KUFPEC: 20.25%) For security reasons, no major activities were performed in the block during the year. The Republic of Yemen has granted the 4th extension of the first exploration period until 7th June 2014. The 2014 WP&B contains a plan to acquire new 2D seismic, and to firm up the 4th commitment well possibly in end of 2014 or early 2015 depending upon the security situation. The Phase 4 development program for the basement was completed in 2013. Current production wouldn’t have been reached without these Phase 4 wells. The Joint Venture Partners voted to kick start the BABY phase development project, aimed at accelerating production and producing new reserves in the Biyad Reservoir. 17 DIRECTORS’ REPORT ON ACTIVITIES AFRICA REGION During 2013, the Africa Region continued its efforts to implement the exploration and development programs of the assigned projects. The net average production achieved within the Africa Region during 2013 was 3,138 boepd as compared to the net average production of 4,559 boepd achieved during 2012. The decrease is attributed to the delay or deferment of drilling new exploration and development wells and depletion of the existing fields. Enhancements of the production facilities at the Chinguetti, Sidi El Kitani and Ras Kanayes fields helped slow the decline in production rates. During 2013 the Mauritania Zone A Banda development studies continued and the Mauritania Zone B Tevet Field evaluation was completed resulting in a request to amend the timing of the declaration of commerciality. The Ras Kanayes Prince Field Unitization Agreement was approved by the Egyptian authorities. Early 2013 a decision was made to relinquish the Congo Marine IX Block at the end of its first exploration phase and during the year the decision was also made to relinquish the Egypt North Bardwail Assad Field area. EGYPT Western Desert, Onshore Ras Kanayes (KUFPEC: 17%) The Prince Field Unitization Agreement was approved by the authorities. The average net production in 2013 was 1,020 boep.

During 2013 post well evaluation studies were conducted and reprocessing of existing 3D seismic data followed by inversion and seismic attributes evaluation. As a result of the 2013 re-interpretation, it was decided to drill appraisal well 51-TC-2X in 2014. VIETNAM Block 19 & 20 PSCs (KUFPEC: 40% in each) The two PSCs are located in the Nam Con Son Basin, offshore Vietnam in the South China Sea and cover an area of 9,200 km2. Two exploration wells 19-TN1X and 20-MG-1X were drilled in Q3 2012. Both wells were P&A without hydrocarbon shows. Both PSC’s were re-evaluated and relinquished during 2013 due to low remaining prospectively. 23 DIRECTORS’ REPORT ON ACTIVITIES FAR EAST & AUSTRALIA REGION The Far East and Australia Region (FEAR) has continued to progress future oil and gas development projects and new interest purchases while managing the declining production in existing fields within the Region. Overall net production within FEAR has increased from 8,312 boe/day reported in 2012 to 14,237 boe/day during 2013. The increase is due to closing of the purchase of 15.3% from BP in Yacheng Field, start of production from Fletcher/Finucane Fields in May 2013 and start of production in December 2013 of two new horizontal development wells within Galoc Field. The drilling of development wells on the Balnaves Field oil development project was completed in December 2013 and oil production is on schedule to start in 2014 into an FPSO. The FEAR highlights of 2013 included the closing on 11 December 2013 of the purchase of a 15.3% interest in Yacheng Gas Field from BP which increased KUFPEC’s interest to 30% and added 2,867 boed net to KUFPEC in 2013. In Mutineer/Exeter Field, KUFPEC acquired 4.1% interest from Woodside to increase the total interest to 37.5%. The new oil production at Fletcher/Finucane Fields added 9,098 bopd net to KUFPEC in the 8 months during 2013 from the three wells which have been flowing to the Mutineer/Exeter FPSO. Further work in 2014 will be workovers at Mutineer/Exeter and drilling of a delineation well near Fletcher called Vanuatu-1 starting in January 2014. The Balnaves Oil Field development wells were drilled and suspended in 2013 for connection in mid-2014 to a new FPSO and expected to start production of up to 7,000 bopd net to KUFPEC. AUSTRALIA WA-49-L formerly part of WA-356-P (KUFPEC: 35%) The Production License WA-49-L contains the Balnaves Oil Development Project and the Julimar/ Brunello Gas Development Project. The Balnaves Oil Field wells include two horizontal oil production wells, a gas injection well and a water injection well which will be hooked up to a new FPSO and scheduled to start production in mid-2014. Julimar/Brunello gas (35% KUFPEC) will be flowed to the Chevron Wheatstone LNG Platform of which KUFPEC holds a 7% foundation membership. Brunello Field will be initially put on production starting at the end of 2016. A new broad-band 3D seismic survey was acquired in 2013 over Julimar/Brunello and Balnaves to improve resolution of the channel sand reservoirs. Wheatstone LNG (KUFPEC: 7%) The Wheatstone LNG Project offshore central processing platform, onshore site construction and 225 kilometer gas pipeline is progressing according to plan. Gas production is scheduled to start at the end of 2016 into two LNG trains being built near Onslow in Western Australia and will have a combined LNG capacity of 8.9 mmtpa. WA-54-L, formerly part of WA-191-P (KUFPEC: 50% Fletcher; 37.5% Finucane) The WA-54-L production license was granted by the Government in early 2013 and oil production from Fletcher/Finucane Fields started in May 2013 through an 18 kilometer subsea flowline to the Mutineer/Exeter FPSO. Oil production during the 8 months of 2013 averaged 9,098 bopd net to KUFPEC from the combined flow. An exploratory Vanuatu-1 well on a structure adjacent to Fletcher will start drilling in January 2014. WA-191-P (KUFPEC: 37.5%) The remaining exploration license WA-191-P is in compliance of the work program after the granting of WA-54-L production license for Fletcher/Finucane Fields in early 2013. The Joint Venture purchased part of the large Monodon 3D seismic reprocessing and merging conducted by DUG, and interpretation was advanced during 2013 for maturing exploration prospects. Harriet Joint Venture (KUFPEC: 19.28%) Net sales increased to 2,747 boepd from 2,487 boepd in 2012 due to increased demand by industrial consumers. New well drilling has been deferred into 2014 due to rig availability and possible 3D seismic acquisition in 2014. Mutineer-Exeter Field (KUFPEC: 37.5%) Net production fell to 136 bopd in 2013 from 1,651 bopd in 2012 due to failure of electronic submersible pumps and rig availability delaying workovers into 2014. A new well planned for Exeter Field during 2013 has also been deferred. The only production had been primarily from intermittent free flow of oil for part of the year. Production was also shut in for scheduled maintenance of the FPSO vessel in Singapore and for connection of the Fletcher/Finucane production wells. Three Muntineer/Exeter wells are scheduled for workover in 2014 to replace the ESP’s. KUFPEC acquired an additional 4.1% interest in Mutineer/Exeter from Santos in 2013 after the departure of Woodside from the partnership. WA-427-P (KUFPEC: 100%) Seismic reprocessing and inversion has been initiated during 2013, and the Government has approved changes to the work program to allow for interpretation and delayed decision on a drilling location. 25 DIRECTORS’ REPORT ON ACTIVITIES FAR EAST & AUSTRALIA REGION WA-481-P (KUFPEC: 30%) 2,573 square kilometers of 3D seismic and 581 kilometers of 2D seismic were acquired in March through May 2013. Processing is underway and expected to be completed in early 2014. A three well drilling campaign is expected to start in late 2014. WA-335-P (KUFPEC: 18.9%) Interpretation of 3D seismic during 2013 resulted in approval to drill Bunyip-1 well in early 2014 to delineate the Tallaganda-1 discovery from the adjacent WA-351-P. WA-41-R (KUFPEC: 33.3%) Reevalution of the Corowa oil discovery coupled with a lower cost Floating Production Facility by a new opertor has improved the economics for a possible development plan. WA-46-R (KUFPEC: 20%) New operator formulating possible development plans for this retention lease. WA-45-R (KUFPEC: 20%) Retention license under review for possible development plans. WA-8-L (KUFPEC: 42.63%) Production license under review for development plans of the Amulet oil discovery. WA-356-P (KUFPEC: 35%) Interpretation is continuing to define exploration potential. CHINA PHILIPPINES SC14C Galoc Field (KUFPEC: 26.84%) Galoc Field produced net 1,215 bopd for KUFPEC during 2013, compared to about 950 bopd reported during 2012. During 2013, Phase II drilling of two new horizontal infill wells was completed and started production during December 2013. Average net production during the month of December 2013 increased to 2,802 bopd. 13-1 Yacheng Field (KUFPEC: 30%) KUFPEC completed the purchase of an additional 15.3% interest in Yacheng Field from BP during 2013. Yacheng Field produced net 5,784 boepd for KUFPEC with the higher interest level during 2013. Normal field decline and several shut-in wells producing high water has affected overall production until additional workovers can be scheduled in 2014. Three workovers were completed in 2013. Two possible exploration wells on the producing license are being evaluated for drilling in 2014. 27 Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company K.S.C.

(Closed) And Subsidiaries Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company K.S.C. (Closed) and Subsidiaries NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTES TO THE At 31 December 2013 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At 31 December 2013 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Oil and gas properties and other fixed assets (continued) Impairment of oil and gas properties and other fixed assets (continued) For CGUs excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the CGU’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the CGU does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the CGU in prior years. Such a reversal is recognised in consolidated income statement unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case, the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase and is recognised through consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The expense relating to any provision is presented in consolidated income statement net of any reimbursement. Employees’ end of service benefits Provision is made for amounts payable to employees under the Kuwaiti Labor Law, the Kuwait Social Security Law and the Group’s terms of employment. The provision, which is unfunded, is determined as the liability that would arise as a result of the involuntary termination of staff at the consolidated statement of financial position date, on the basis that this computation is a reliable approximation of the present value of this obligation. Foreign currencies The individual financial statements of the Group entity are presented in the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (its functional currency). For the purpose of the consolidated financial statements, the results and financial position of each entity are expressed in United States Dollars (“USD”), which is the functional currency of the Parent Company. The presentation currency for these consolidated financial statements is the Kuwaiti Dinar (“KD”). In preparing the consolidated financial statements of the individual entities, transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional currency (foreign currencies) are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At each consolidated statement of financial position date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the consolidated statement of financial position date. Nonmonetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. Exchange differences are recognised in the consolidated income statement in the period in which they arise except for exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur, which form part of the net investment in a foreign operation, and which are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve and recognised in consolidated income statement on disposal of the net investment. For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group's foreign operations are expressed in KD using exchange rates prevailing at the consolidated statement of financial position date. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuated significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are classified as equity and transferred to the Group's foreign currency translation reserve. Such exchange differences are recognised in the consolidated income statement in the period in which the foreign operation is disposed of. 45 19 Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company K.S.C. (Closed) and Subsidiaries NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTES TO THE At 31 December 2013 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At 31 December 2013 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Revenue recognition Revenue is recognised to the extent it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, excluding discounts, sales taxes, excise duties and similar levies. Revenue from the sale of oil and petroleum products is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred, which is considered to occur when title passes to the customer. This generally occurs when the product is physically transferred into a vessel, pipe or other delivery mechanism. Revenue from the production of oil, in which the Group has an interest with other producers, is recognised based on the Group’s working interest and the terms of the relevant production sharing contracts. Where forward sale and purchase contracts for oil or natural gas have been determined to be for trading purposes, the associated sales and purchases are reported net. Under adjusting revenue method, the excess of product sold during the period over the participant’s ownership share of production from the property is recognised by the overlift party as a liability (deferred revenue) and not as revenue. The following criteria are also applicable to other specific revenue transactions: Take or pay contracts Under these contracts, the Group makes a long-term supply commitment in return for a commitment from the buyer to pay for minimum quantities, whether or not the customer takes delivery. These commitments contain protective (force majeure) and adjustment provisions. If a buyer has a right to get a “make up” delivery at a later date, revenue recognition is deferred and only recognised when the product is delivered, or the make-up product can no longer be taken. If no such option exists within the contractual terms, revenue is recognised when the take or pay penalty is triggered. Royalties Royalties are accounted for in the consolidated income statement in the same period as the income to which they relate and are included within operating expenses. Royalty arrangements that are based on production, sales and other measures are recognised by reference to the underlying arrangement. Borrowing costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale (a qualifying asset) are capitalised as part of the cost of the respective assets. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds. Where funds are borrowed specifically to finance a project, the amount capitalised represents the actual borrowing costs incurred. Where surplus funds are available for a short term out of money borrowed specifically to finance a project, the income generated from the temporary investment of amounts is also capitalised and deducted from the total capitalised borrowing cost. Where the funds used to finance a project form part of general borrowings, the amount capitalised is calculated using a weighted average of rates applicable to relevant general borrowings of the Group during the period. All other borrowing costs are recognised in consolidated income statement in the period in which they are incurred. Even though exploration and evaluation assets can be qualifying assets, they generally do not meet the “probable economic benefits” test and also are rarely debt funded. Any related borrowing costs are therefore generally recognised in profit or loss in the period they are incurred. Taxation Certain of the Parent Company's subsidiaries are subject to taxes on income in various foreign jurisdictions. Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. Current tax The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the consolidated income statement because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The subsidiaries’ liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the consolidated statement of financial position date. 20 46 Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company K.S.C. (Closed) And Subsidiaries Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company K.S.C. (Closed) and Subsidiaries NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At 31 December 2013 At 31 December 2013 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Taxation (continued) Deferred tax Deferred tax is recognised on differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and are accounted for using the consolidated statement of financial position liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each consolidated statement of financial position date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the consolidated statement of financial position date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the consolidated statement of financial position date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. Current and deferred tax for the period Current and deferred tax are recognised as an expense or income in the consolidated income statement, except when they relate to items recognized in equity, or where they arise from the initial accounting for a business combination. In the case of a business combination, the tax effect is taken into account in calculating goodwill or in determining the excess of the acquirer's interest in the net fair value of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities over cost. Accounting of leases Where the Group is the lessee Operating leases Leases of assets under which all the risks and benefits of ownership are effectively retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the consolidated income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates if different assumptions were used and different conditions existed. In particular, the Group has identified the following areas where significant judgements, estimates and assumptions are required, and where if actual results were to differ, may materially affect the financial position or financial results reported in future periods. Further information on each of these and how they impact the various accounting policies are described in the relevant notes to the consolidated financial statements. 47 21 Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company K.S.C. (Closed) and Subsidiaries NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTES TO THE At 31 December 2013 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At 31 December 2013 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued) Reserve and resource estimates Oil and gas production properties are depreciated on a units of production basis at a rate calculated by reference to total proved developed and undeveloped reserves determined using the latest estimates provided by the Group’s technical staff, which are based on estimates provided by the field operator. Commercial reserves are determined using estimates of oil in place, recovery factors and future oil prices, the latter having an impact on the total amount of recoverable reserves and the proportion of the gross reserves which are attributable to the host government under the terms of the Production-Sharing Agreements. Future development costs are estimated using assumptions as to the number of wells required to produce the commercial reserves, the cost of such wells and associated production facilities, and other capital costs. As the economic assumptions used may change and as additional geological information is produced during the operation of a field, estimates of recoverable reserves may change. Such changes may impact the Group’s reported financial position and results which include: The carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets, oil and gas properties, property, other fixed assets and goodwill may be affected due to changes in estimated future cash flows Depreciation, depletion and amortisation charges in consolidated income statement may change where such charges are determined using the units of production method, or where the useful life of the related assets change Provisions for decommissioning may change - where changes to the reserve estimates affect expectations about when such activities will occur and the associated cost of these activities The recognition and carrying value of deferred income tax assets may change due to changes in the judgements regarding the existence of such assets and in estimates of the likely recovery of such assets Exploration and evaluation expenditures The application of the Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure requires judgement in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits are likely either from future exploitation or sale or where activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves. The determination of reserves and resources is itself an estimation process that requires varying degrees of uncertainty depending on sub-classification and these estimates directly impact the point of deferral of exploration and evaluation expenditure. The deferral policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions as to future events and circumstances, in particular whether an economically viable extraction operation can be established. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after expenditure is capitalised, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of the expenditure is unlikely, the relevant capitalised amount is written off in consolidated income statement in the period when the new information becomes available. Units of production depreciation of oil and gas properties Oil and gas properties are depreciated using the units of production (UOP) method over total proved developed and undeveloped resource reserves. This results in a depreciation, depletion and amortisation charge proportional to the depletion of the anticipated remaining production from the field. Each items’ life, which is assessed annually, has regard to both its physical life limitations and to present assessments of economically recoverable reserves of the field at which the asset is located. These calculations require the use of estimates and assumptions, including the amount of recoverable reserves and estimates of future capital expenditure. The calculation of the UOP rate of depreciation could be impacted to the extent that actual production in the future is different from current forecast production based on total proved reserves, or future capital expenditure estimates changes. Changes to proved reserves could arise due to changes in the factors or assumptions used in estimating reserves, including: The effect on proved reserves of differences between actual commodity prices and commodity price assumptions, or Unforeseen operational issues Changes are accounted for prospectively. 22 48 Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company K.S.C.

(Closed) and Subsidiaries NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTES TO THE At 31 December 2013 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At 31 December 2013 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued) Recoverability of oil and gas properties The Group assesses each asset or cash generating unit (CGU) (excluding goodwill, which is assessed annually regardless of indicators) every reporting period to determine whether any indication of impairment exists. Where an indicator of impairment exists, a formal estimate of the recoverable amount is made, which is considered to be the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use. These assessments require the use of estimates and assumptions such as long-term oil prices (considering current and historical prices, price trends and related factors), discount rates, operating costs, future capital requirements, decommissioning costs, exploration potential, reserves estimates and operating performance (which includes production and sales volumes). These estimates and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty. Therefore, there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will impact these projections, which may impact the recoverable amount of assets and/or CGUs Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. Fair value for oil and gas assets is generally determined as the present value of estimated future cash flows arising from the continued use of the assets, which includes estimates such as the cost of future expansion plans and eventual disposal, using assumptions that an independent market participant may take into account. Cash flows are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Management has assessed its CGUs as being an individual field, which is the lowest level for which cash inflows are largely independent of those of other assets. Decommissioning costs Decommissioning costs will be incurred by the Group at the end of the operating life of some of the Group’s facilities and properties. The Group assesses its decommissioning provision at each reporting date. The ultimate decommissioning costs are uncertain and cost estimates can vary in response to many factors, including changes to relevant legal requirements, the emergence of new restoration techniques or experience at other production sites. The expected timing, extent and amount of expenditure can also change, for example in response to changes in reserves or changes in laws and regulations or their interpretation. Therefore, significant estimates and assumptions are made in determining the provision for decommissioning. As a result, there could be significant adjustments to the provisions established which would affect future financial results. The provision at reporting date represents management’s best estimate of the present value of the future decommissioning costs required. Recovery of deferred income tax assets Judgement is required to determine which types of arrangements are considered to be a tax on income in contrast to an operating cost. Judgement is also required in determining whether deferred income tax assets are recognised in the statement of financial position. Deferred income tax assets, including those arising from un-utilised tax losses, require management to assess the likelihood that the Group will generate sufficient taxable earnings in future periods, in order to utilise recognised deferred income tax assets. Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. These estimates of future taxable income are based on forecast cash flows from operations (which are impacted by production and sales volumes, oil and natural gas prices, reserves, operating costs, decommissioning costs, capital expenditure, dividends and other capital management transactions) and judgement about the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Group to realise the net deferred income tax assets recorded at the reporting date could be impacted. In addition, future changes in tax laws in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates could limit the ability of the Group to obtain tax deductions in future periods. Contingencies By their nature, contingencies will only be resolved when one or more uncertain future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of the existence, and potential quantum, of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgement and the use of estimates regarding the outcome of future events. 49 23 Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company K.S.C.

The Group has determined that the relevant activities for its joint arrangements are those relating to the operating and capital decisions of the arrangement, such as approval of the capital expenditure program for each year and appointing, remunerating and terminating the key management personnel or service providers of the joint arrangement. The considerations made in determining joint control are similar to those necessary to determine control over subsidiaries. Judgment is also required to classify a joint arrangement. Classifying the arrangement requires the Group to assess their rights and obligations arising from the arrangement. Specifically, the Group considers: The structure of the joint arrangement – whether it is structured through a separate vehicle When the arrangement is structured through a separate vehicle, the Group also considers the rights and obligations arising from: o o o The legal form of the separate vehicle The terms of the contractual arrangement Other facts and circumstances (when relevant).

The Group manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to the shareholder through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Group's overall strategy remains unchanged from previous year. Consistent with others in the industry, the Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total equity. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as equity (as shown in the consolidated statement of financial position) plus net debt. Gearing ratio The gearing ratio at year end was as follows: Total Borrowing (note 21) Due to Ultimate Parent Company and affiliates (Note 6) Less: Cash and cash equivalents (note 5) Less: Funds held by Parent Company (note 6) Net debt Total Equity Total Capital Gearing ratio 65 2013 KD 000's 2012 KD 000's 211,538 17,856 (40,708) (160,769) ────── 27,917 640,210 ────── 668,127 ────── 4% ══════ 12,857 186,824 (27,916) (16,875) ────── 154,890 362,117 ────── 517,007 ────── 30% ══════ 25 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES a) Pursuant to the Group's interest in a joint venture in Australia encompassing production from the Harriet Field and various exploration permits, KUFPEC Australia Pty Ltd ("KAPL") has entered into three deeds of cross charge in favour of each of the other participants for the purpose of securing the Group's obligations under the Joint Venture Agreement.

Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowing and surplus funds with the Parent Company. The Group manages interest rate risk by monitoring interest rate movements and by borrowing at market linked interest rates and placing time deposits at the best available rates. At 31 December 2013, if interest rates at that date had been 50 basis points higher/lower with all other variables held constant, consolidated profit for the year would have been higher/lower by KD 1,058 thousand (2012: consolidated profit for the year would have been lower/higher by KD 64 thousand). Credit risk management Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation causing the other party to incur a financial loss. Financial assets, which potentially subject the Group to credit risk, consist principally of bank balances, Funds held by Parent Company, trade and other receivables and due from Ultimate Parent Company and affiliates. The Group manages this risk by placing its bank balances with high credit rated institutions and by dealing with only reputed multinational customers or government companies. The Group considers the credit quality of amounts that are neither past due nor impaired to be good. For more information refer to Note 7. Liquidity risk management Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group may not be able to meet its funding requirements. The Group manages this risk by maintaining sufficient cash and bank balances and availability of funding from committed credit facilities and borrowings. The Company’s Board of Directors increases capital or borrowings based on ongoing review of funding requirements.
