Oil and Gas Price Sensitivity
EOG RESOURCES INC · 2026-08-04 · Importance 18 · Surprise 24 · In source text
EOG expects continued commodity-price volatility from the Middle East conflict, maritime-route disruptions, global supply and demand, tariffs, trade policies, and government-imposed trade barriers. Compared with its beginning-of-2026 expectations, EOG realized and expects higher crude oil and condensate prices for 2026 because of the ongoing Middle East conflict. For the first six months of 2026, average NYMEX crude oil and natural gas prices increased 22% to $82.57 per barrel and 10% to $3.92 per MMBtu, respectively, versus the prior-year period. As of June 30, 2026, a $1.00 per barrel change in crude oil and condensate prices, together with the estimated NGL-price change, would affect full-year 2026 net income by approximately $172 million and pretax operating cash flow by approximately $221 million; a $0.10 per Mcf natural-gas price change would affect net income by approximately $60 million and pretax operating cash flow by approximately $77 million.
