Adjusting for growth projects (ex redevelopment activity) and after normalizing for maintenance impacts over the last few years, we estimate that decline rates on mature assets have decreased from a 5 year peak of -12% in 2011 to -6.5% in 2014. The peaking of decline rates in 2011 followed a cut of 17% in YoY dollar-adjusted investment spending in 2010 vs. 2008. However, in our view, the sudden V-shaped recovery in crude prices during the last cycle likely placed a floor on spending cuts that would have otherwise resulted in a higher decline rate in 2011. In 2014 we estimate that decline rates on producing fields (ex-Ekofisk) reached a five-year low following an increase of -50% in development spending in 2013/2014 over the prior 4-yr average (producing fields representing -60% of this spend in 2013/2014). We forecast a normalized decline rate of 12% in the period's forecast (ex redevelopment activity which is modeled separately) during out forecast period. For every change to decline rates of 1% we estimate a production impact of 3% to our 2017 oil production estimate. In our view, the impact of project delays is mostly muted as growth projects are currently either on-stream or under development. In the following analysis, we detail our assumptions and identify the key growth drivers as well as present a framework from which to think about decline rates on the base assets.
