MANAGEMENT SERVICES
Hydraulic Fracturing (Fracking) is a well stimulation technique in which rock is fractured by a pressurized liquid. The process involves the high-pressure injection of 'fracking fluid' (primarily water, containing sand or other proppants suspended with the aid of thickening agents) into a wellbore to create cracks in the deep- rock formations through which natural gas, petroleum, and brinewill flow more freely. When the hydraulic pressure is removed from the well, small grains of hydraulic fracturing proppants (either sand or aluminium oxide) hold the fractures open. Hydraulic fracturing began as an experiment in 1947, and the first commercially successful application followed in 1950. As of 2012, 2.5 million "frac jobs" had been performed worldwide on oil and gas wells; over one million of those within the U.S. Such treatment is generally necessary to achieve adequate flow rates in shale gas, tight gas, tight oil, and coal seam gas wells. Some hydraulic fractures can form naturally in certain veins or dikes.

OIL AND GAS WELLS
The relationship between well performance and treatment pressures was studied by Floyd Farris of Stanolind Oil and Gas Corporation. This study was the basis of the first hydraulic fracturing experiment, conducted in 1947 at the Hugoton gas field in Grant County of southwestern Kansas by Stanolind. For the well treatment, 1,000 US gallons (3,800 l; 830 imp gal) of gelled gasoline (essentially napalm) and sand from the Arkansas River was injected into the gas-producing limestone formation at 2,400 feet (730 m). The experiment was not very successful as deliverability of the well did not change appreciably. The process was further described by J.B. Clark of Stanolind in his paper published in 1948. A patent on this process was issued in 1949 and exclusive license was granted to the Halliburton Oil Well Cementing Company. On 17 March 1949, Halliburton performed the first two commercial hydraulic fracturing treatments in Stephens County, Oklahoma, and Archer County, Texas. Since then, hydraulic fracturing has been used to stimulate approximately one million oil and gas wells in various geologic regimes with good success. In contrast with large-scale hydraulic fracturing used in low-permeability formations, small hydraulic fracturing treatments are commonly used in highpermeability formations to remedy "skin damage", a low-permeability zone that sometimes forms at the rock-borehole interface. In such cases the fracturing may extend only a few feet from the borehole. In the Soviet Union, the first hydraulic proppant fracturing was carried out in 1952. Other countries in Europe and Northern Africa subsequently employed hydraulic fracturing techniques including Norway, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Hungary, Austria, France, Italy, Bulgaria, Romania, Turkey, Tunisia, and Algeria.

MASSIVE FRACTURING
Massive hydraulic fracturing (also known as high-volume hydraulic fracturing) is a technique first applied by Pan American Petroleum in Stephens County, Oklahoma, USA in 1968. The definition of massive hydraulic fracturing varies, but generally refers to treatments injecting over 150 short tons, or approximately 300,000 pounds (136 metric tonnes), of proppant. American geologists gradually became aware that there were huge volumes of gas-saturated sandstones with permeability too low (generally less than 0.1 millidarcy) to recover the gas economically. Starting in 1973, massive hydraulic fracturing was used in thousands of gas wells in the San Juan Basin, Denver Basin, the Piceance Basin, and the Green River Basin, and in other hard rock formations of the western US. Other tight sandstone wells in the US made economically viable by massive hydraulic fracturing were in the Clinton-Medina Sandstone (Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York), and Cotton Valley Sandstone (Texas and Louisiana).[34] Massive hydraulic fracturing quickly spread in the late 1970s to western Canada, Rotliegend and Carboniferous gas-bearing sandstones in Germany, Netherlands (onshore and offshore gas fields), and the United Kingdom in the North Sea. Horizontal oil or gas wells were unusual until the late 1980s. Then, operators in Texas began completing thousands of oil wells by drilling horizontally in the Austin Chalk, and giving massive slickwater hydraulic fracturing treatments to the wellbores. Horizontal wells proved much more effective than vertical wells in producing oil from tight chalk; sedimentary beds are usually nearly horizontal, so horizontal wells have much larger contact areas with the target formation. Hydraulic fracturing operations have grown exponentially since the mid-1990s, when technologic advances and increases in the price of natural gas made this technique economically viable

SHALE FORMATIONS
Hydraulic fracturing of shales goes back at least to 1965, when some operators in the Big Sandy gas field of eastern Kentucky and southern West Virginia started hydraulically fracturing the Ohio Shale and Cleveland Shale, using relatively small fracs. The frac jobs generally increased production, especially from lower-yielding wells. In 1976, the United States government started the Eastern Gas Shales Project, which included numerous public-private hydraulic fracturing demonstration projects. During the same period, the Gas Research Institute, a gas industry research consortium, received approval for research and funding from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. In 1997, Nick Steinsberger, an engineer of Mitchell Energy (now part of Devon Energy), applied the slickwater fracturing technique, using more water and higher pump pressure than previous fracturing techniques, which was used in East Texas by Union Pacific Resources (now part of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation), in the Barnett Shale of north Texas. In 1998, the new technique proved to be successful when the first 90 days gas production from the well called S.H. Griffin No. 3 exceeded production of any of the company's previous wells. This new completion technique made gas extraction widely economical in the Barnett Shale, and was later applied to other shales, including the Eagle Ford and Bakken Shale. George P. Mitchell has been called the "father of fracking" because of his role in applying it in shales. The first horizontal well in the Barnett Shale was drilled in 1991, but was not widely done in the Barnett until it was demonstrated that gas could be economically extracted from vertical wells in the Barnett. As of 2013, massive hydraulic fracturing is being applied on a commercial scale to shales in the United States, Canada, and China. Several additional countries are planning to use hydraulic fracturing

METHOD / PROCESS
A hydraulic fracture is formed by pumping fracturing fluid into a wellbore at a rate sufficient to increase pressure at the target depth (determined by the location of the well casing perforations), to exceed that of the fracture gradient (pressure gradient) of the rock. The fracture gradient is defined as pressure increase per unit of depth relative to density, and is usually measured in pounds per square inch, per square foot, or bars. The rock cracks, and the fracture fluid permeates the rock extending the crack further, and further, and so on. Fractures are localized as pressure drops off with the rate of frictional loss, which is relative to the distance from the well. Operators typically try to maintain "fracture width", or slow its decline following treatment, by introducing a proppant into the injected fluid – a material such as grains of sand, ceramic, or other particulate, thus preventing the fractures from closing when injection is stopped and pressure removed. Consideration of proppant strength and prevention of proppant failure becomes more important at greater depths where pressure and stresses on fractures are higher. The propped fracture is permeable enough to allow the flow of gas, oil, salt water and hydraulic fracturing fluids to the well. During the process, fracturing fluid leakoff (loss of fracturing fluid from the fracture channel into the surrounding permeable rock) occurs. If not controlled, it can exceed 70% of the injected volume. This may result in formation matrix damage, adverse formation fluid interaction, and altered fracture geometry, thereby decreasing efficiency. The location of one or more fractures along the length of the borehole is strictly controlled by various methods that create or seal holes in the side of the wellbore. Hydraulic fracturing is performed in cased wellbores, and the zones to be fractured are accessed by perforating the casing at those locations. Hydraulic-fracturing equipment used in oil and natural gas fields usually consists of a slurry blender, one or more high-pressure, high-volume fracturing pumps (typically powerful triplex or quintuplex pumps) and a monitoring unit. Associated equipment includes fracturing tanks, one or more units for storage and handling of proppant, high-pressure treating iron, a chemical additive unit (used to accurately monitor chemical addition), low-pressure flexible hoses, and many gauges and meters for flow rate, fluid density, and treating pressure. Chemical additives are typically 0.5% of the total fluid volume. Fracturing equipment operates over a range of pressures and injection rates, and can reach up to 100 megapascals (15,000 psi) and 265 litres per second (9.4 cu ft/s) (100 barrels per minute).

WELL TYPES
A distinction can be made between conventional, low-volume hydraulic fracturing, used to stimulate high-permeability reservoirs for a single well, and unconventional, high-volume hydraulic fracturing, used in the completion of tight gas and shale gas wells. High-volume hydraulic fracturing usually requires higher pressures than low- volume fracturing; the higher pressures are needed to push out larger volumes of fluid and proppant that extend farther from the borehole. Horizontal drilling involves wellbores with a terminal drillhole completed as a "lateral" that extends parallel with the rock layer containing the substance to be extracted. For example, laterals extend 1,500 to 5,000 feet (460 to 1,520 m) in the Barnett Shale basin in Texas, and up to 10,000 feet (3,000 m) in the Bakken formation in North Dakota. In contrast, a vertical well only accesses the thickness of the rock layer, typically 50–300 feet (15–91 m). Horizontal drilling reduces surface disruptions as fewer wells are required to access the same volume of rock. Drilling often plugs up the pore spaces at the wellbore wall, reducing permeability at and near the wellbore. This reduces flow into the borehole from the surrounding rock formation, and partially seals off the borehole from the surrounding rock. Low- volume hydraulic fracturing can be used to restore permeability.

HORIZONTAL COMPLETIONS
Since the early 2000s, advances in drilling and completion technology have made horizontal wellbores much more economical. Horizontal wellbores allow far greater exposure to a formation than conventional vertical wellbores. This is particularly useful in shale formations which do not have sufficient permeability to produce economically with a vertical well. Such wells, when drilled onshore, are now usually hydraulically fractured in a number of stages, especially in North America. The type of wellbore completion is used to determine how many times a formation is fractured, and at what locations along the horizontal section. In North America, shale reservoirs such as the Bakken, Barnett, Montney, Haynesville, Marcellus, and most recently the Eagle Ford, Niobrara and Utica shales are drilled horizontally through the producing interval(s), completed and fractured. The method by which the fractures are placed along the wellbore is most commonly achieved by one of two methods, known as "plug and perf" and "sliding sleeve“. The wellbore for a plug-and-perf job is generally composed of standard steel casing, cemented or uncemented, set in the drilled hole. Once the drilling rig has been removed, a wireline truck is used to perforate near the bottom of the well, and then fracturing fluid is pumped. Then the wireline truck sets a plug in the well to temporarily seal off that section so the next section of the wellbore can be treated. Another stage is pumped, and the process is repeated along the horizontal length of the wellbore. The wellbore for the sliding sleeve technique is different in that the sliding sleeves are included at set spacings in the steel casing at the time it is set in place. The sliding sleeves are usually all closed at this time. When the well is due to be fractured, the bottom sliding sleeve is opened using one of several activation techniques and the first stage gets pumped. Once finished, the next sleeve is opened, concurrently isolating the previous stage, and the process repeats. For the sliding sleeve method, wireline is usually not required. These completion techniques may allow for more than 30 stages to be pumped into the horizontal section of a single well if required, which is far more than would typically be pumped into a vertical well that had far fewer feet of producing zone exposed.

PIPELINE CONSTRUCTION
Pipeline Construction is a very important part of the Oil & Gas Industry Infrastructure. It requires an experienced engineering effort along with land and project management. Building a pipeline requires certain pieces of technical equipment. These items all carry on specific functions in the safe operations of building, trenching, coating, lowering-in and finishing the land so that the area is returned to its original condition. In the slides proceeding this one, you’ll see the various pieces of equipment we work with each day in building pipelines.

BG LIMITED POINSETTIA OFFSHORE OIL PLATFORM Client: BG Trinidad & Tobago, Limited Location: Trinidad and Tobago
Executive Summary United Energies, in consortium with J. Ray McDermott (JRM), delivered program management, engineering, procurement, construction, and installation services for the 4,267-ton topsides of an offshore gas production platform commissioned by BG Trinidad & Tobago, Limited (BG T&T). Situated off the northwest coast of Trinidad in 530 feet of water, the Poinsettia platform stands as the most substantial facility ever constructed and deployed in the waters of Trinidad & Tobago.
Client's Challenge BG Trinidad & Tobago required additional gas to fulfill future supply commitments and pledged to introduce a new offshore platform for gas delivery in 2008. The initial design phase was conducted by United Energies' office in Trinidad, and the resultant platform exceeded twice the size of any structure previously constructed in Trinidad. With a strong commitment to optimizing local content and facing time constraints that hindered a competitive bidding process for engineering and fabrication, the BG T&T project team was formed to address these challenges and ensure the successful execution of the project within the stipulated timeframe.
United Energies Solution To address the execution and schedule concerns of the BG Trinidad & Tobago (BG T&T) project, United Energies and J. Ray McDermott (JRM) established a Consortium. This collaboration promptly initiated detailed engineering and procurement activities, bypassing the time-consuming process of creating a bid package and competitively bidding a lump sum EPIC contract based on preliminary design documents. In order to provide BG T&T with the assurance of a competitive price without going through the traditional bidding process, United Energies and JRM presented an Open Book Estimate for the EPIC project. This approach allowed for a thorough review of pricing details before the contract was awarded. The timing of this Open Book Estimate, conducted after additional engineering and the receipt of actual equipment quotes, resulted in a more accurate contract price with fewer contingencies for unknown factors. To enhance local content, United Energies subcontracted the fabrication of the topsides to TOFCO, a local Trinidadian fabricator with prior platform construction experience, albeit none of the magnitude of the Poinsettia platform. United Energies' management of this subcontract infused the robust United Energies culture of safety and quality into the burgeoning yet relatively young fabrication yard. Most importantly, this United Energies-led Consortium provided BG T&T with the optimal opportunity to achieve their ambitious schedule goals.
Conclusion
The Poinsettia platform, expertly engineered and procured by the United Energies-led Consortium, was successfully fabricated and installed in November 2008. BG Trinidad & Tobago's commitment to delivering the first gas in December 2008 was met, thanks to the innovative contracting strategy implemented by United Energies and the unwavering dedication of the experienced professionals brought to BG T&T through the Consortium. The realization of this significant achievement was made possible by the collaborative efforts of the Consortium, showcasing the effectiveness of the contracting strategy and the determination of the seasoned professionals involved. The Poinsettia project received United Energies' Hugh Coble Project Excellence Award in 2008, recognizing outstanding performance in various areas, including safety, value creation, and positive relationships with clients and the community. This award underscores the exceptional results achieved through the collaborative efforts of the United Energies-led Consortium.

BG INTERNATIONAL LIMITED STARFISH PROJECT Client: BG International Limited Location: Trinidad and Tobago
Executive Summary United Energies secured the FEED phase of the project in 2011. This project focuses on the development of the Starfish and North West Dolphin Gas Fields, situated adjacent to the existing Dolphin "A" Platform and Dolphin Deep subsea production facilities, approximately 84 kilometers offshore from the Beachfield Gas Terminal on the island of Trinidad. The water depth at the existing Dolphin Field facilities ranges from approximately 360 feet (110 meters) to 600 feet (200 meters). The project's objective is to establish facilities for the efficient exploitation of the reservoirs, alongside the addition of compression facilities for both existing and planned gas developments. BG considered various development options, eventually narrowing down to three potential schemes. These three alternatives were thoroughly developed to determine the preferred option, which would then progress through the FEED phase and subsequently into project implementation. The chosen solution involves a subsea tieback from wells to the existing Dolphin "A" Platform, necessitating modifications to accommodate future production for the subsea development. Following the successful completion of the FEED phase, United Energies was granted the engineering, procurement, and construction management services phase in August 2012. This marks a pivotal step in the continued collaboration between United Energies and BG, showcasing the expertise and capability of United Energies in delivering comprehensive solutions for offshore gas development projects.
Client's Challenge BG faced several challenges in meeting the first gas milestone in mid-2014. These challenges encompassed limitations on personnel on board (POBs) during shutdowns, delays in the arrival of equipment and/or materials, coordination issues between United Energies and subsea contractors, as well as local fabrication concerns. Overcoming these obstacles required careful planning, efficient communication, and proactive management to ensure the successful and timely achievement of the project's milestones. United Energies worked collaboratively with BG to address these challenges, employing strategic solutions to mitigate risks and uphold the project's overall timeline and objectives.
United Energies Solution United Energies and BG closely collaborated, implementing PPMOF strategies that achieved a remarkable 68% reduction in onshore and offshore work hours. The strategy enabled pre-commissioning, reducing personnel on board during shutdowns. An interface specialist ensured effective coordination with subsea contractors, addressing potential challenges. United Energies also supported BG in using pressurized habitats, optimizing work schedules and showcasing a commitment to practical solutions for complex challenges.
Conclusion The Starfish project, a groundbreaking initiative by BG and United Energies, optimizes onshore and offshore fabrication and construction activities, aiming for success with United Energies' experienced team. United Energies is fully dedicated to the project's success, supporting BG in detailed engineering and procurement, with construction management underway. The first gas milestone is set for mid-2014, a testament to the fruitful collaboration. The Consortium's effective contracting strategy and the commitment of seasoned professionals led to the Poinsettia project's success, earning United Energies the Hugh Coble Project Excellence Award in 2008.

TERMINAL DE LNG DE ALTAMIRA LNG REGASIFICATION TERMINAL - EPC Client: Terminal de LNG de Altamira Location: Altamira, Tamaulipas, Mexico
Executive Summary The TLA project marked a historic milestone as the first energy infrastructure project of its kind in Latin America. This innovative initiative involved the transportation of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to a receiving terminal via specially designed vessels. Key components of the project include two 150,000 cubic meter full-containment tanks dedicated to LNG storage, LNG re-gasification facilities, and short pipelines connecting to the existing natural gas pipeline systems in Tamaulipas. The primary beneficiary of the TLA project is Mexico's power authority, Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE). GDL (Gas de Litoral), a natural gas marketing company jointly owned by Royal Dutch Shell and the Total Group, secured a contract from CFE to supply 5 billion cubic meters of regasified LNG annually for a duration of 15 years. The engineering, procurement, and construction aspects of the TLA project were efficiently executed by ICA United Energies and IshikawajimaHarima Heavy Industries (IHI), underscoring their collective expertise in bringing this pioneering energy infrastructure project to fruition.
Client's Challenge To guarantee the supply of 5 billion cubic meters of regasified LNG per annum, (equivalent to 3.7 million tonnes of LNG per year) TLA's challenge was to complete the terminal and regasification facilities in less than 3 years. The terminal jetty berthing facilities were designed for LNG carriers from 70,000 to 200,000 cubic meters capacity, with an average unloading rate of 10,000 cubic meters per hour into two full-containment-type LNG storage tanks. The tanks had a nominal 160,000 cubic meters capacity (150,000 cubic meters net each) and 9% nickel inner tanks with suspended decks. The LNG terminal was to receive LNG by LNG carrier, store it in aboveground full-containment tanks, then vaporize the LNG for export via pipeline. It uses seawater as the heating medium. The plant was designed for future expansion to a 1,200 million scfd peak send-out rate.
United Energies Solution TLA selected the ICA United Energies – IHI consortium for the Altamira LNG project in Tamaulipas, Mexico. ICA United Energies managed the project, and IHI led the technical aspects. The contract value was around US$250 million. The project included two 150,000 cubic meter LNG storage tanks, vaporization facilities, and pipeline export. The system met pipeline send-out requirements of 70 bara and 10 °C. Project execution covered commissioning, cool-down, and start-up for a nominal 500 million scfd, peaking at 760 million scfd. The engineering was mainly done in Mexico, providing jobs for about 1,500 construction workers at its peak, totaling approximately 3.6 million craft work hours.
Conclusion The ICA-United Energies-led consortium achieved the successful completion of Mexico's first LNG regasification terminal in 2006. The fast-track project involved predominantly local engineering efforts in Mexico, providing employment for about 1,500 construction workers. The completed facility receives LNG shipments, converts the LNG into gas, and injects it into natural gas pipelines, contributing to the increased availability of natural gas in Mexico.

REGULATION G RECONCILIATIONS This presentation contains non-GAAP financial measures. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow, Distributable Cash Flow per Share, and Distributable Cash Flow per Unit are non-GAAP financial measures that we use to facilitate comparisons of operating performance across periods. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for our U.S. GAAP measures of performance and the financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) attributable to United Energies before net income (loss) attributable to the non-controlling interest, interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for certain non-cash items, other non-operating income or expense items, and other items not otherwise predictive or indicative of ongoing operating performance, as detailed in the following reconciliation. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows from operations or net income (loss) as defined by U.S. GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We believe Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA provides relevant and useful information to management, investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating the effectiveness of our operating performance in a manner that is consistent with management’s evaluation of business performance. We believe Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization which vary substantially from company to company depending on capital structure, the method by which assets were acquired and depreciation policies. Further, the exclusion of certain non-cash items, other non-operating income or expense items, and items not otherwise predictive or indicative of ongoing operating performance enables comparability to prior period performance and trend analysis. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders before net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interest, interest expense, net of capitalized interest, changes in the fair value and settlement of our interest rate derivatives, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and adjusting for the effects of certain non- cash items, other non-operating income or expense items, and other items not otherwise predictive or indicative of ongoing operating performance, including the effects of modification or extinguishment of debt, impairment expense and loss on disposal of assets, changes in the fair value of our commodity and foreign currency exchange (“FX”) derivatives, non-cash compensation expense, and non-recurring costs related to our response to the COVID-19 outbreak. We believe the exclusion of these items enables investors and other users of our financial information to assess our sequential and year-over-year performance and operating trends on a more comparable basis and is consistent with management’s own evaluation of performance. Distributable Cash Flow is defined as cash received, or expected to be received, from United Energies’s ownership and interests in CQP and United Energies, LLC, cash received (used) by United Energies’s integrated marketing function (other than cash for capital expenditures) less interest, taxes and maintenance capital expenditures associated with United Energies and not the underlying entities. Management uses this measure and believes it provides users of our financial statements a useful measure reflective of our business’s ability to generate cash earnings to supplement the comparable GAAP measure. Distributable Cash Flow per Share and Distributable Cash Flow per Unit are calculated by dividing Distributable Cash Flow by the weighted average number of common shares or units outstanding. We believe Distributable Cash Flow is a useful performance measure for management, investors and other users of our financial information to evaluate our performance and to measure and estimate the ability of our assets to generate cash earnings after servicing our debt, paying cash taxes and expending sustaining capital, that could be used for discretionary purposes such as common stock dividends, stock repurchases, retirement of debt, or expansion capital expenditures. Management uses this measure and believes it provides users of our financial statements a useful measure reflective of our business’s ability to generate cash earnings to supplement the comparable GAAP measure. Distributable Cash Flow is not intended to represent cash flows from operations or net income (loss) as defined by U.S. GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or in lieu of an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP, and should be evaluated only on a supplementary basis.
