Canadian Natural Resources Limited

Canadian Natural is one of the largest independent crude oil and natural gas producers in the world. The Company continually targets cost effective alternatives to develop our portfolio of projects and to deliver our defined growth plan, thereby creating value for shareholders. We have a proven, effective, value driven strategy that works.

We have an effective and efficient, diversified combination of assets in North America, the North Sea and Offshore Africa, which enables us to generate significant value, even in challenging economic environments. We continually strive for safe, effective, efficient and environmentally responsible operations while developing our diverse asset base.

Our balanced mix of natural gas, light crude oil, heavy crude oil, bitumen and synthetic crude oil (“SCO”) represents one of the strongest and most diverse asset portfolios of any energy producer in the world. As we develop our assets, the Company is transitioning to a long-life, low decline asset base which provides increasing and sustainable free cash flow.

Our financial discipline, commitment to a strong balance sheet, and capacity to internally generate cash flows provide us the means to grow our company in the long term.

Deep gas basin of Northwest Alberta was initially acquired as part of a larger acquisition and further augmented by other acquisitions. We leveraged our knowledge and expertise between British Columbia and Northwest Alberta to make both areas stronger. These areas are home to numerous resource plays and shale gas opportunities and are a part of our future growth story.

International offshore properties were first acquired as part of a larger transaction. The acquired package included numerous, fractional interests around the world. We carefully rationalized the assets in accordance with our strategy and expertise. The North Sea represents a mature basin where we look to acquire assets and economically extend field lives – the same approach used in Western Canada. Offshore Africa provides the opportunity for exploration and exploitation growth while leveraging our offshore expertise.

Thermal in situ heavy crude oil properties were purchased by Canadian Natural. As one of the initial entrants in the field we were better able to understand and economically bid on asset packages including the landmark acquisition in 1999 where the majority of our thermal and Horizon Project mining properties were acquired. Today we are a leader in thermal in situ crude oil developments and have a clearly defined plan for future growth.

Heavy crude oil operations were new to Canadian Natural following the acquisition of primary heavy crude oil lands in 1993. We took our time and developed an expertise in these operations. This allowed us to intelligently acquire and expand our holdings. Today, we are a recognized leader leveraging technology to further grow and recover crude oil. Fields such as Pelican Lake will continue to add significant value to shareholders for years to come.

Northeast British Columbia natural gas basin was entered, providing early knowledge and a leading position into this prolific basin. Canadian Natural became a major natural gas producer in British Columbia through acquisition and drilling. Advances in technologies and new resource plays such as Montney Shale gas means that this area will continue to be a major growth driver for the foreseeable future.

Shallow gas basin of Alberta was the modern iteration of the Company’s birthplace and is still a major contributor to our success. Even in today’s world, conventional and shallow natural gas drilling can generate significant returns as we leverage our strong land position with new technology.
