Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

EOG RESOURCES, INC.

Overview

EOG Resources, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively, EOG), is one of the largest independent (non-integrated) crude oil and natural gas companies in the United States with proved reserves in the United States and Trinidad. EOG operates under a consistent business and operational strategy that focuses predominantly on maximizing the rate of return on investment of capital by controlling operating and capital costs and maximizing reserve recoveries. Pursuant to this strategy, each prospective drilling location is evaluated by its estimated rate of return. This strategy is intended to enhance the generation of cash flow and earnings from each unit of production on a cost-effective basis, allowing EOG to maximize long-term shareholder value and maintain a strong balance sheet. EOG implements its strategy primarily by emphasizing the drilling of internally generated prospects in order to find and develop low-cost reserves. Maintaining the lowest possible operating cost structure, coupled with efficient and safe operations and robust environmental stewardship practices and performance, is integral in the implementation of EOG's strategy.

Commodity Prices**.** Prices for crude oil and condensate, natural gas liquids (NGLs) and natural gas have historically been volatile. This volatility is expected to continue due to the many uncertainties associated with the world political and economic environment and the global supply of, and demand for, crude oil, NGLs and natural gas and the availability of other energy supplies, the relative competitive relationships of the various energy sources in the view of consumers and other factors.

The market prices of crude oil and condensate, NGLs and natural gas impact the amount of cash generated from EOG's operating activities, which, in turn, impact EOG's financial position and results of operations.

For the first three months of 2023, the average U.S. New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) crude oil and natural gas prices were $76.11 per barrel and $3.43 per million British thermal units (MMBtu), respectively, representing decreases of 19% and 30%, respectively, from the average NYMEX prices for the same period in 2022. Market prices for NGLs are influenced by the components extracted, including ethane, propane and butane and natural gasoline, among others, and the respective market pricing for each component.

Inflation Considerations; Availability of Materials, Labor & Services. Beginning in the second half of 2021 and continuing through the first three months of 2023, EOG, similar to other companies in its industry, has experienced inflationary pressures on its operating and capital costs - namely the costs of fuel, steel (i.e., wellbore tubulars and facilities manufactured using steel), labor and drilling and completion services. Such inflationary pressures have resulted from (i) supply chain disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting limited availability of certain materials and products manufactured using such materials; (ii) increased demand for fuel and steel; (iii) increased demand for drilling and completion services coupled with a limited number of available service providers, resulting in increased competition for such services among EOG and other companies in its industry; (iv) labor shortages; and (v) other factors, including the ongoing conflict between Russia and the Ukraine which began in late February 2022. EOG currently expects such inflationary pressures and contributing factors to continue in 2023.

Such inflationary pressures on EOG's operating costs have, in turn, impacted its cash flows and results of operations. However, by virtue of its continued focus on increasing its drilling, completion and operating efficiencies and improving the performance of its wells, as well as the flexibility provided by its multi-basin drilling portfolio, EOG has, to date, been able to largely offset such impacts. EOG currently expects such inflationary pressures to result in an increase of approximately 10 percent in its fiscal year 2023 well costs (i.e., its costs for drilling, completions and well-site facilities) versus fiscal year 2022. Accordingly, such increase in EOG's fiscal year 2023 well costs did not have a material impact on EOG's first quarter 2023 cash flows, and EOG currently does not expect such increase to have a material impact on its full-year 2023 cash flows. Further, such inflationary pressures and the factors contributing to such inflationary pressures (described above) have not, to date, impacted EOG's results of operations, liquidity, capital resources, cash requirements or financial position or its ability to conduct its day-to-day drilling, completion and production operations.

-20-

The initiatives EOG has undertaken (and continues to undertake) to increase its drilling, completion and operating efficiencies and improve the performance of its wells and, in turn, mitigate such inflationary pressures, include (among others): (i) EOG's downhole drilling motor program, which has resulted in increased footage drilled per day and, in turn, reduced drilling times; (ii) enhanced techniques for completing its wells, which has resulted in increased footage completed per day and pumping hours per day; and (iii) EOG's self-sourced sand program, which has resulted in continued cost savings for the sand utilized in its well completion operations. In addition, EOG enters into agreements with its service providers from time to time, when available and advantageous, to secure the costs and availability of certain drilling and completion services it utilizes as part of its operations.

EOG plans to continue with these initiatives and actions, though there can be no assurance that such efforts will offset, largely or at all, the impacts of any future inflationary pressures on EOG's operating costs, cash flows and results of operations. Further, there can be no assurance that the factors contributing to any future inflationary pressures will not impact EOG's ability to conduct its future day-to-day drilling, completion and production operations.

Climate Change. For discussion of climate change matters and related regulatory matters, including potential developments related to climate change and the potential impacts and risks of such developments on EOG, see ITEM 1A. Risk Factors, and the related discussion in ITEM 1. Business - Regulation, of EOG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed on February 23, 2023 (EOG's 2022 Annual Report). EOG will continue to monitor and assess any climate change-related developments that could impact EOG and the oil and gas industry, to determine the impact on its business and operations, and take appropriate actions where necessary.

United States. EOG's efforts to identify plays with large reserve potential have proven to be successful. EOG continues to drill numerous wells in large acreage plays, which in the aggregate have contributed substantially to, and are expected to continue to contribute substantially to, EOG's crude oil and condensate, NGLs and natural gas production. EOG has placed an emphasis on applying its horizontal drilling and completion expertise to unconventional crude oil plays and natural gas plays.

During the first three months of 2023, EOG continued to focus on increasing drilling, completion and operating efficiencies, to improve well performance and, as is further discussed above, to mitigate inflationary pressures on its operating and capital costs (e.g., costs for fuel and tubulars). In addition, EOG continued to evaluate certain potential crude oil and condensate, NGLs and natural gas exploration and development prospects and to look for opportunities to add drilling inventory through leasehold acquisitions, farm-ins, exchanges or tactical or bolt-on acquisitions. On a volumetric basis, as calculated using a ratio of 1.0 barrel of crude oil and condensate or NGLs to 6.0 thousand cubic feet of natural gas, crude oil and condensate and NGLs production accounted for approximately 73% and 75% of EOG's United States production during the first three months of 2023 and 2022, respectively. During the first three months of 2023, EOG's drilling and completion activities occurred primarily in the Delaware Basin play, Eagle Ford play and Rocky Mountain area. EOG's major producing areas in the United States are in New Mexico and Texas.

Trinidad. In the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago (Trinidad), EOG continues to deliver natural gas under existing supply contracts. Several fields in the South East Coast Consortium Block, Modified U(a) Block, Block 4(a), the Banyan Field and the Sercan Area have been developed and are producing natural gas which is sold to the National Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago Limited and its subsidiary (NGC), and crude oil and condensate which is sold to Heritage Petroleum Company Limited (Heritage).

EOG expects to commence drilling in June 2023 from the recently completed platform in the Modified U(a) Block. EOG expects to complete three development wells and two exploratory wells from this platform in 2023. EOG also expects to commence drilling one exploratory well in the South East Coast Consortium Block in December 2023. Additionally, EOG completed the design phase for the platform and related facilities in the Mento Area and expects to make significant construction progress in 2023.

Also, in February 2023, EOG sold its entire equity interest in its ammonia plant investments.

Other International. In November 2021, a subsidiary of EOG was granted an exploration permit for the WA-488-P Block, located offshore Western Australia. In the first three months of 2023, EOG continued to prepare for the drilling of an exploration well which is expected to commence in 2024, subject to statutory approvals and equipment availability.

EOG continues to evaluate other select crude oil and natural gas opportunities outside the United States, primarily by pursuing exploitation opportunities in countries where indigenous crude oil and natural gas reserves have been identified.

-21-

2023 Capital and Operating Plan**.** Total 2023 capital expenditures are estimated to range from approximately $5.8 billion to $6.2 billion, including facilities and gathering, processing, transportation and other expenditures, and excluding acquisitions, non-cash transactions and exploration costs. EOG plans to continue to focus a substantial portion of its exploration and development expenditures in its major producing areas in the United States. In particular, EOG will be focused on United States drilling activity in the Delaware Basin, Eagle Ford play, Rocky Mountain area and Dorado gas play where it generates its highest rates-of-return. To further enhance the economics of these plays, EOG expects to continue to improve well performance and to mitigate inflationary pressures on its operating and capital costs (e.g., costs for fuel and tubulars) through efficiency gains; see the above related discussion. Full-year 2023 total crude oil, NGLs and natural gas production is expected to increase modestly versus 2022. In addition, EOG plans to continue to spend a portion of its anticipated 2023 capital expenditures on leasing acreage, evaluating new prospects, transportation infrastructure and environmental projects.

Management continues to believe EOG has one of the strongest prospect inventories in EOG's history. When it fits EOG's strategy, EOG will make acquisitions that bolster existing drilling programs or offer incremental exploration and/or production opportunities.

Capital Structure**.** One of management's key strategies is to maintain a strong balance sheet with a consistently below average debt-to-total capitalization ratio as compared to those in EOG's peer group. EOG's debt-to-total capitalization ratio was 13% and 17% at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. As used in this calculation, total capitalization represents the sum of total current and long-term debt and total stockholders' equity.

At March 31, 2023, EOG maintained a strong financial and liquidity position, including $5.0 billion of cash and cash equivalents on hand and $2.0 billion of availability under its senior unsecured revolving credit facility.

On March 15, 2023, EOG repaid upon maturity the $1,250 million aggregate principal amount of its 2.625% Senior Notes due 2023.

EOG has significant flexibility with respect to financing alternatives, including borrowings under its commercial paper program, bank borrowings, borrowings under its senior unsecured revolving credit facility, joint development agreements and similar agreements and equity and debt offerings.

Cash Return Framework. EOG maintains quantitative guidance as part of its cash return framework - specifically, a commitment to return a minimum of 60% of annual net cash provided by operating activities before certain balance sheet-related changes, less total capital expenditures, to stockholders, through a combination of quarterly dividends, special dividends and share repurchases. For discussion regarding our payment of dividends, see ITEM 1A, Risk Factors, and ITEM 5, Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities, of EOG's 2022 Annual Report. For discussion regarding our share repurchases conducted during the first three months of 2023 and our share repurchase authorization, see Part II, Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds, in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Dividend Declarations. On February 23, 2023, EOG's Board of Directors (Board) declared a quarterly cash dividend on the common stock of $0.825 per share, paid on April 28, 2023, to stockholders of record as of April 14, 2023. The Board also declared on such date a special dividend on the common stock of $1.00 per share, paid on March 30, 2023, to stockholders of record as of March 16, 2023.

On May 4, 2023, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend on the common stock of $0.825 per share to be paid on July 31, 2023, to stockholders of record as of July 17, 2023.

-22-

Share Repurchases. In November 2021, the Board established a new share repurchase authorization that allows for the repurchase by EOG of up to $5 billion of its common stock (November 2021 Authorization). Under the November 2021 Authorization, EOG may repurchase shares from time to time, at management's discretion, in accordance with applicable securities laws, including through open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or any combination thereof. The timing and amount of repurchases is at the discretion of EOG's management and depends on a variety of factors, including the trading price of EOG's common stock, corporate and regulatory requirements, and other market and economic conditions. Repurchased shares are held as treasury shares and are available for general corporate purposes. The November 2021 Authorization has no time limit, does not require EOG to repurchase a specific number of shares and may be modified, suspended, or terminated by the Board at any time. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, EOG repurchased 2.9 million shares of common stock for approximately $310 million (inclusive of transaction fees and commissions) pursuant to the November 2021 Authorization. As of March 31, 2023, approximately $4.7 billion remained available for repurchases under the November 2021 Authorization.

Results of Operations

The following review of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of EOG and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 2022

Operating Revenues and Other. During the first quarter of 2023, operating revenues increased $2,061 million, or 52%, to $6,044 million from $3,983 million for the same period of 2022. Total wellhead revenues, which are revenues generated from sales of EOG's production of crude oil and condensate, NGLs and natural gas, for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $1,097 million, or 21%, to $4,189 million from $5,286 million for the same period of 2022. EOG recognized net gains on the mark-to-market of financial commodity derivative contracts of $376 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to net losses of $2,820 million for the same period of 2022. Gathering, processing and marketing revenues for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $79 million, or 5%, to $1,390 million from $1,469 million for the same period of 2022. Net gains on asset dispositions were $69 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to net gains of $25 million for the same period of 2022.

Crude oil equivalent volumes are determined using a ratio of 1.0 barrel of crude oil and condensate or NGLs to 6.0 thousand cubic feet of natural gas. MMBoe is calculated by multiplying the MBoed amount by the number of days in the period and then dividing that amount by one thousand.

-25-

Wellhead crude oil and condensate revenues for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $707 million, or 18%, to $3,182 million from $3,889 million for the same period of 2022. The decrease was due to a lower composite average price ($774 million), partially offset by an increase of 7.6 MBbld, or 2%, in wellhead crude oil and condensate production ($67 million). Increased production was primarily in the Permian Basin, partially offset by decreased production in the Eagle Ford play and the Rocky Mountain area. EOG's composite wellhead crude oil and condensate price for the first quarter of 2023 decreased 20% to $77.26 per barrel compared to $96.00 per barrel for the same period of 2022.

NGL revenues for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $191 million, or 28%, to $490 million from $681 million for the same period of 2022 due to a lower composite average price ($272 million), partially offset by an increase of 21.9 MBbld, or 12%, in NGL deliveries ($81 million). Increased production was primarily from the Permian Basin. EOG's composite NGL price for the first quarter of 2023 decreased 35% to $25.67 per barrel compared to $39.77 per barrel for the same period of 2022.

Wellhead natural gas revenues for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $199 million, or 28%, to $517 million from $716 million for the same period of 2022. The decrease was due to a lower average composite price ($293 million), partially offset by an increase in natural gas deliveries ($94 million). Natural gas deliveries for the first quarter of 2023 increased 181 MMcfd, or 12%, compared to the same period of 2022 due primarily to increased production of associated natural gas from the Permian Basin and higher deliveries in the Dorado gas play, partially offset by lower natural gas deliveries in Trinidad, lower natural gas volumes due to the sale of certain legacy natural gas assets in the Rocky Mountain area in the first quarter of 2022 and decreased production of associated natural gas from the Eagle Ford play. EOG's composite wellhead natural gas price for the first quarter of 2023 decreased 36% to $3.51 per Mcf compared to $5.46 per Mcf for the same period of 2022.

During the first quarter of 2023, EOG recognized net gains on the mark-to-market of financial commodity derivative contracts of $376 million compared to net losses of $2,820 million for the same period of 2022. During the first quarter of 2023, net cash paid for settlements of financial commodity derivative contracts was $123 million compared to net cash paid for settlements of financial commodity derivative contracts of $296 million for the same period of 2022.

Gathering, processing and marketing revenues are revenues generated from sales of third-party crude oil, NGLs and natural gas, as well as fees associated with gathering third-party natural gas and revenues from sales of EOG-owned sand. Purchases and sales of third-party crude oil and natural gas may be utilized in order to balance firm capacity at third-party facilities with production in certain areas and to utilize excess capacity at EOG-owned facilities. EOG sells sand primarily in order to balance the timing of firm purchase agreements with completion operations. Marketing costs represent the costs to purchase third-party crude oil, natural gas and sand and the associated transportation costs, as well as costs associated with EOG-owned sand sold to third parties.

Gathering, processing and marketing revenues less marketing costs for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $157 million as compared to the same period of 2022 primarily due to lower margins on crude oil and natural gas marketing activities.

-26-

Operating and Other Expenses. For the first quarter of 2023, operating expenses of $3,472 million were $35 million higher than the $3,437 million incurred during the first quarter of 2022. The following table presents the costs per barrel of oil equivalent (Boe) for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

(1)Total excludes exploration costs, dry hole costs, impairments, marketing costs and taxes other than income.

The primary factors impacting the cost components of per-unit rates of lease and well, transportation costs, gathering and processing costs, DD&A, G&A and interest expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period of 2022, are set forth below. See "Operating Revenues and Other" above for a discussion of wellhead volumes.

Lease and well expenses include expenses for EOG-operated properties, as well as expenses billed to EOG from other operators where EOG is not the operator of a property. Lease and well expenses can be divided into the following categories: costs to operate and maintain crude oil and natural gas wells, the cost of workovers and lease and well administrative expenses. Operating and maintenance costs include, among other things, pumping services, produced water disposal, equipment repair and maintenance, compression expense, lease upkeep and fuel and power. Workovers are operations to restore or maintain production from existing wells.

Each of these categories of costs individually fluctuates from time to time as EOG attempts to maintain and increase production while maintaining efficient, safe and environmentally responsible operations. EOG continues to increase its operating activities by drilling new wells in existing and new areas. Operating and maintenance costs within these existing and new areas, as well as the costs of services charged to EOG by vendors, fluctuate over time.

Lease and well expenses of $359 million for the first quarter of 2023 increased $41 million from $318 million for the same prior year period primarily due to increased operating and maintenance costs ($25 million), increased lease and well administrative expenses ($9 million) and increased workover expenditures ($4 million), all in the United States. Lease and well expenses increased in the United States primarily due to increased operating activities resulting in increased production.

Transportation costs represent costs associated with the delivery of hydrocarbon products from the lease or an aggregation point on EOG's gathering system to a downstream point of sale. Transportation costs include transportation fees, storage and terminal fees, the cost of compression (the cost of compressing natural gas to meet pipeline pressure requirements), the cost of dehydration (the cost associated with removing water from natural gas to meet pipeline requirements), gathering fees and fuel costs.

Transportation costs of $236 million for the first quarter of 2023 increased $8 million from $228 million for the same prior year period primarily due to increased transportation costs related to the Permian Basin ($18 million) and the Dorado gas play ($4 million), partially offset by decreased transportation costs related to the Eagle Ford play ($11 million) and the Rocky Mountain area ($3 million).

Gathering and processing costs represent operating and maintenance expenses and administrative expenses associated with operating EOG's gathering and processing assets as well as natural gas processing fees and certain NGL fractionation fees paid to third parties. EOG pays third parties to process the majority of its natural gas production to extract NGLs.

-27-

Gathering and processing costs increased $15 million to $159 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $144 million for the same prior year period primarily due to increased gathering and processing fees ($14 million) and increased operating and maintenance expenses ($9 million), both related to production from the Permian Basin; partially offset by decreased gathering and processing fees due to the sale of certain legacy natural gas assets in the Rocky Mountain area in the first quarter of 2022 ($9 million).

DD&A of the cost of proved oil and gas properties is calculated using the unit-of-production method. EOG's DD&A rate and expense are the composite of numerous individual DD&A group calculations. There are several factors that can impact EOG's composite DD&A rate and expense, such as field production profiles, drilling or acquisition of new wells, disposition of existing wells and reserve revisions (upward or downward) primarily related to well performance, economic factors and impairments. Changes to these factors may cause EOG's composite DD&A rate and expense to fluctuate from period to period. DD&A of the cost of other property, plant and equipment is generally calculated using the straight-line depreciation method over the useful lives of the assets.

DD&A expenses for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $49 million to $798 million from $847 million for the same prior year period. DD&A expenses associated with oil and gas properties for the first quarter of 2023 were $50 million lower than the same prior year period. The decrease primarily reflects decreased unit rates in the United States ($112 million), partially offset by increased production in the United States ($62 million). Unit rates in the United States decreased primarily due to upward reserve revisions related to favorable well performance, increased ethane recovery and reserve additions at lower costs per Boe during the quarter.

G&A expenses of $145 million for the first quarter of 2023 increased $21 million from $124 million for the same prior year period primarily due to increased employee-related costs ($9 million) and professional and other services ($4 million).

Exploration costs of $50 million for the first quarter of 2023 increased $5 million from $45 million for the same prior year period due primarily to increased geological and geophysical expenditures in the United States.

Interest expense, net of $42 million for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $6 million compared to the same prior year period primarily due to decreased interest expense on certain royalty payments.

Impairments include: amortization of unproved oil and gas property costs as well as impairments of proved oil and gas properties; other property, plant and equipment; and other assets. Unproved properties with acquisition costs that are not individually significant are aggregated, and the portion of such costs estimated to be nonproductive is amortized over the remaining lease term. Unproved properties with individually significant acquisition costs are reviewed individually for impairment. When circumstances indicate that a proved property may be impaired, EOG compares expected undiscounted future cash flows at a DD&A group level to the unamortized capitalized cost of the asset. If the expected undiscounted future cash flows, based on EOG's estimates of (and assumptions regarding) future crude oil, NGLs and natural gas prices, operating costs, development expenditures, anticipated production from proved reserves and other relevant data, are lower than the unamortized capitalized cost, the capitalized cost is reduced to fair value. Fair value is generally calculated by using the Income Approach described in the Fair Value Measurement Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Accounting Standards Codification. In certain instances, EOG utilizes accepted offers from third-party purchasers as the basis for determining fair value.

The following table represents impairments for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022 (in millions):

Three Months Ended March 31,
20232022
Proved properties$2$1
Unproved properties3254
Total$34$55

Taxes other than income include severance/production taxes, ad valorem/property taxes, payroll taxes, franchise taxes and other miscellaneous taxes. Severance/production taxes are generally determined based on wellhead revenues, and ad valorem/property taxes are generally determined based on the valuation of the underlying assets.

-28-

Taxes other than income for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $61 million to $329 million (7.8% of wellhead revenues) from $390 million (7.4% of wellhead revenues) for the same prior year period. The decrease in taxes other than income was primarily due to decreased severance/production taxes in the United States.

Other income, net was $65 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to other expense, net of $1 million for the same prior year period. The change of $66 million in the first quarter of 2023 was primarily due to increased interest income ($60 million) and decreased deferred compensation expense ($15 million), partially offset by the absence of equity income due to the sale of EOG's equity interest in ammonia plant investments in Trinidad in the first quarter of 2023 ($13 million).

EOG recognized an income tax provision of $572 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to an income tax provision of $107 million for the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to increased pretax income. The net effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2023 was unchanged from the prior year rate of 22%.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Cash Flow. The primary sources of cash for EOG during the three months ended March 31, 2023, were funds generated from operations and proceeds from sales of assets. The primary uses of cash were exploration and development expenditures; funds used in operations; repayment of maturing debt; dividend payments to stockholders; purchases of treasury stock; and other property, plant and equipment expenditures. During the first three months of 2023, EOG's cash balance decreased $954 million to $5,018 million from $5,972 million at December 31, 2022.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $3,255 million for the first three months of 2023 increased $2,427 million compared to the same period of 2022 primarily due to net cash provided by a change in collateral posted for financial commodity derivative contracts ($2,599 million) and net cash provided by working capital and other assets and liabilities in the first three months of 2023 ($132 million) compared to net cash used in working capital and other assets and liabilities in the first three months of 2022 ($891 million), partially offset by a decrease in wellhead revenues ($1,097 million).

Net cash used in investing activities of $1,567 million for the first three months of 2023 increased $611 million compared to the same period of 2022 due to an increase in additions to oil and gas properties ($366 million), an increase in additions to other property, plant and equipment ($249 million) and a decrease in proceeds from the sale of assets ($29 million), partially offset by net cash used in working capital associated with investing activities in the first three months of 2023 ($35 million) compared to net cash used in working capital associated with investing activities in the first three months of 2022 ($68 million).

Net cash used in financing activities of $2,642 million for the first three months of 2023 included repayments of long-term debt ($1,250 million), cash dividend payments ($1,067 million), purchases of treasury stock ($317 million) and repayment of finance lease liabilities ($8 million). Net cash used in financing activities of $1,072 million for the first three months of 2022 included cash dividend payments ($1,023 million), purchases of treasury stock in connection with stock compensation plans ($43 million) and repayment of finance lease liabilities ($10 million).

Total Expenditures. For the year 2023, EOG's updated budget for exploration and development and other property, plant and equipment expenditures is estimated to range from approximately $5.8 billion to $6.2 billion, excluding acquisitions, non-cash transactions and exploration costs. The table below sets out components of total expenditures for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 (in millions):

Three Months Ended March 31,

Asset Retirement Costs1027
Total Exploration and Development Expenditures1,3981,074
Other Property, Plant and Equipment (3)31970
Total Expenditures$1,717$1,144

(1) Leasehold acquisitions included $31 million and $58 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to non-cash property exchanges.

(2) Property acquisitions included $2 million and $5 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to non-cash property exchanges.

(3) Other Property, Plant and Equipment included $133 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2023, related to the acquisition of a gathering and processing system in the Powder River Basin.

Exploration and development expenditures of $1,388 million for the first three months of 2023 were $341 million higher than the same period of 2022 primarily due to increased exploration and development drilling expenditures in the United States ($363 million), partially offset by decreased leasehold acquisitions ($16 million). Exploration and development expenditures for the first three months of 2023 of $1,388 million consisted of $1,254 million in development drilling and facilities, $122 million in exploration, $8 million in capitalized interest and $4 million in property acquisitions. Exploration and development expenditures for the first three months of 2022 of $1,047 million consisted of $907 million in development drilling and facilities, $127 million in exploration, $8 million in capitalized interest and $5 million in property acquisitions.

The level of exploration and development expenditures, including acquisitions, will vary in future periods depending on energy market conditions and other economic factors. EOG believes it has significant flexibility and availability with respect to financing alternatives and the ability to adjust its exploration and development expenditure budget as circumstances warrant. While EOG has certain continuing commitments associated with expenditure plans related to its operations, such commitments are not expected to be material when considered in relation to the total financial capacity of EOG.

Financial Commodity Derivative Transactions. As more fully discussed in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in EOG's 2022 Annual Report, EOG engages in price risk management activities from time to time. These activities are intended to manage EOG's exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices for crude oil and natural gas. EOG utilizes financial commodity derivative instruments, primarily price swap, option, swaption, collar and basis swap contracts, as a means to manage this price risk. EOG has not designated any of its financial commodity derivative contracts as accounting hedges and, accordingly, accounts for financial commodity derivative contracts using the mark-to-market accounting method. Under this accounting method, changes in the fair value of outstanding financial instruments are recognized as gains or losses in the period of change and are recorded as Gains (Losses) on Mark-to-Market Financial Commodity Derivative Contracts on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The related cash flow impact is reflected in Cash Flows from Operating Activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The total fair value of EOG's financial commodity derivative contracts, net of associated collateral posted, was reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2023, as a net liability of $407 million.

As discussed in "Operating Revenues and Other," the net cash paid for settlements of financial commodity derivative contracts during the first three months of 2023 was $123 million.

Presented below is a comprehensive summary of EOG's financial commodity derivative contracts settled during the period from January 1, 2023 to April 28, 2023 (closed) and outstanding as of April 28, 2023. Crude oil volumes are presented in MBbld and prices are presented in $/Bbl. Natural gas volumes are presented in MMBtu per day (MMBtud) and prices are presented in dollars per MMBtu ($/MMBtu).

  • geopolitical factors and political conditions and developments around the world (such as the imposition of tariffs or trade or other economic sanctions, political instability and armed conflict), including in the areas in which EOG operates;

  • the extent to which EOG incurs uninsured losses and liabilities or losses and liabilities in excess of its insurance coverage;

  • acts of war and terrorism and responses to these acts; and

  • the other factors described under ITEM 1A, Risk Factors of EOG's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and any updates to those factors set forth in EOG's subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K.

-34-

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events anticipated by EOG's forward-looking statements may not occur, and, if any of such events do, we may not have anticipated the timing of their occurrence or the duration or extent of their impact on our actual results. Accordingly, you should not place any undue reliance on any of EOG's forward-looking statements. EOG's forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and EOG undertakes no obligation, other than as required by applicable law, to update or revise its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events, anticipated or unanticipated circumstances or otherwise.
