NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
At 31 December 2007
7 EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net profit for
the year attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of
ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net profit
attributable to ordinary shareholders, after adjusting for any dilutive effect,
by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year,
adjusted for the effects of ordinary shares granted under the employee share
award schemes which are held in trust.
The following reflects the income and share data used in calculating basic and
diluted earnings per share:

No interest has been capitalised within oil & gas facilities during the year
(2006: nil) and the accumulated capitalised interest, net of depreciation at 31
December 2007, was US$1,929,000 (2006: US$2,427,000).
Included in oil & gas assets is US$1,604,000 (2006: US$990,000) of capitalised
decommissioning costs provided on the PM304 asset in Malaysia.
On 22 February 2007, the group completed the acquisition of a 45% interest in
the Chergui gas concession in Tunisia, for a final cash consideration of
US$31,393,000 including transaction costs, which, after including advance
capital expenditures paid on behalf of the vendor of US$2,846,000, brought the
total consideration to US$34,239,000. Of the total initial consideration,
US$31,393,000 has been recognised during the year as additions to property,
plant and equipment and further post acquisition capital expenditure of
US$22,693,000 was incurred during the year.
Of the total charge for depreciation in the income statement, US$37,759,000
(2006: US$24,810,000) is included in cost of sales and US$4,542,000 (2006:
US$3,312,000) in selling, general and administration expenses.
Capital work in progress comprises of expenditures incurred on the construction

10 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Acquisitions in 2007
SPD Group Limited
On 16 January 2007, the group acquired a 51% interest in the share capital of
SPD Group Limited (SPD), a specialist provider of well operations services. The
consideration for the acquisition of the 51% interest inclusive of transaction
costs of US$172,000, was US$7,872,000. Consideration of US$7,700,000 (excluding
transaction costs) was settled by a cash payment of US$3,935,000, issuance of
loan notes payable of US$1,765,000 and the balance of US$2,000,000 by issuance
of 274,938 new ordinary shares of the Company at market value on 19 January 2007
to the vendor over three years in equal instalments on the anniversary of the
transaction. On 27 December 2007, the outstanding loan notes of US$1,765,000
were repaid to the vendors.
The terms of the sale and purchase agreement for the remaining 49% interest in
the share capital of SPD which convey call option rights on the acquirer and
minority share holder put option rights over these shares and the respective
rights to dividends and share of profits of the two parties are such that this
transaction has been accounted for as a 100% acquisition of the business by the
group. The discounted deferred consideration for the remaining 49% of the share
capital of SPD was originally estimated at US$12,025,000 based on the discounted
value of an agreed multiple of the future earnings of SPD and this has been
reassessed and maintained as an appropriate year end fair value and a charge of
US$1,455,000 for the unwinding of interest has been reflected in the income
statement as an interest expense (see note 5). The total consideration for the
100% interest therefore, including transaction costs, amounted to US$19,897,000.
The 100% fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities of SPD on
completion of the acquisition are analysed below:

synergies and business opportunities arising from the integration of the
business in to the group.
From the date of acquisition, SPD has contributed a profit of US$391,000 to the
net profit of the group.
Acquisitions in 2006
PPS Process Control and Instrumentation Services Limited
On 28 April 2006, the group acquired a 100% interest in the share capital of PPS
Process Control and Instrumentation Services Limited (subsequently renamed, and
hereafter referred to as, Petrofac (Cyprus) Limited), a company incorporated in
Cyprus which is also the holding company of the subsidiaries listed below. The
Petrofac (Cyprus) Limited subsidiaries provide operations and maintenance
training on Sakhalin Island, Russia, and process control and instrumentation
services in Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. The total consideration for the
acquisition inclusive of transaction costs of US$211,000 and earn-out provision
of US$189,000 was US$2,000,000 and the carrying value of the net assets acquired
was US$1,332,000. The consideration of US$1,600,000 (excluding transaction costs
and earn-out provision) was settled by a cash payment of US$527,000 and the
extinguishment of receivables due from the vendor of US$1,073,000. During 2007 a
deferred consideration payment of US$64,000 was made to the vendors.
The residual goodwill of US$668,000 comprises the fair value of expected
synergies in the group's Training business arising from the acquisition.
Petrofac (Malaysia-PM304) Limited
During 2006, contingent consideration of US$4,450,000 was paid in respect of the
acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Petrofac
(Malaysia-PM304) Limited (formally Amerada Hess (Malaysia-PM304) Limited), which
the group acquired on 16 June 2004. Petrofac (Malaysia-PM304) Limited held a
40.5% interest in a Production Sharing Contract (PSC) in Block PM304 and under
pre-emption rights contained within the PSC, Petrofac (Malaysia-PM304) Limited
sold a 10.5% interest in the PSC to one of the partners in the PSC on the same
commercial terms and conditions of the acquisition and received US$1,154,000 as
contingent consideration in 2006. The net cash outflow of these related
transactions amounting to US$3,296,000 is shown in the consolidated cash flow
statement within the acquisition of subsidiaries line.

At 31 December 71,743 56,732
======================
Goodwill acquired through business combinations has been allocated to three
groups of cash-generating units, which are reportable segments, for impairment
testing as follows:
• Facilities Management (comprising Petrofac Facilities Management, Plant
Asset Management and SPD)
• Training (comprising Petrofac Training and PPS Process Control &
Instrumentation)
• Energy Developments (comprising Petrofac Energy Developments
International Limited)
These represent the lowest level within the group at which the goodwill is
monitored for internal management purposes.
Facilities Management and Training cash-generating units
The recoverable amounts for the Facilities Management and Training units have
been determined based on value in use calculations, using discounted pre-tax
cash flow projections. Management has adopted a ten year projection period to
assess each unit's value in use as it considers the life of the goodwill for
both the Facilities Management and Training cash-generating units to
significantly exceed the five year impairment test period referred to in IAS 36.
The cash flow projections are based on financial budgets approved by senior
management covering a five year period, extrapolated, thereafter at a growth
rate of 5% per annum. Management considers this is a conservative long-term
growth rate relative to both the economic outlook for the units in their
respective markets within the oil & gas industry and the growth rates
experienced in the recent past by each unit.
Energy Developments cash-generating unit
The recoverable amount of the Energy Developments unit is also determined on a
value in use calculation using discounted pre-tax cash flow projections based on
financial budgets and economic parameters for the unit approved by senior
management and covering a five year period, as referred to in IAS 36.

---------------------
71,743 56,732
=====================
Key assumptions used in value in use calculations
The calculation of value in use for both the Facilities Management and Training
units is most sensitive to the following assumptions:
Market share: the assumption relating to market share for the Facilities
Management unit is based on the unit re-securing those existing customer
contracts in the UK which are due to expire during the projection period; for
the Training unit, the key assumptions relate to management's assessment of
maintaining the unit's market share in the UK and developing further the
business in international markets.
Growth rate: estimates are based on management's assessment of market share
having regard to macro-economic factors and the growth rates experienced in the
recent past by each unit. A growth rate of 5% per annum has been applied for the
remaining five years of the ten year projection period.
Net profit margins: estimates are based on management's assumption of achieving
a level of performance at least in line with the recent past performance of each
of the units.
Discount rate: management has used a pre-tax discount rate of 9.8% (2006: 8.0%)
per annum which is derived from the estimated weighted average cost of capital
of the group. This discount rate has been calculated using an estimated risk
free rate of return adjusted for the group's estimated equity market risk
premium and the group's cost of debt.
The calculation of value in use for the Energy Developments unit is most
sensitive to the following assumptions:
Financial returns: estimates are based on the unit achieving returns on existing
investments (comprising both those that are currently cash flowing and those
which are in development and which may therefore be consuming cash) at least in
line with current forecast income and cost budgets during the planning period.
Discount rate: management has used an estimate of the pre-tax weighted average
cost of capital of the group plus a risk premium to reflect the particular risk
characteristics of each individual investment. The discount rate used for 2007
was 10% for each asset (2006: 10% to 15%).
Oil prices: management has used a prudent oil price assumption of US$55 (2006:
US$40) per barrel for the impairment testing of its individual oil & gas
investments.
Reserve volumes and production profiles: management has used its internally
developed economic models of reserves and production as a basis of calculating
value in use.
Sensitivity to changes in assumptions
With regard to the assessment of value in use of the cash generating units,
management believes that no reasonably possible change in any of the above key
assumptions would cause the carrying value of the relevant unit to exceed its
recoverable amount, after giving due consideration to the macro-economic outlook
for the oil & gas industry and the commercial arrangements with customers
underpinning the cash flow forecasts for each of the units.

=======================
Intangible oil & gas assets
On 29 May 2007, the group entered into a farm-in arrangement to acquire a 10%
interest in Permit NT/P68 300km north- north-west of Darwin in Australian waters
and an option to acquire an interest in any LNG or methanol project in Tassie
Shoal that results from this investment. The terms of the farm-in require the
group to fund two appraisal wells to a cap of US$13,200,000 and US$12,500,000
respectively. This was subject to an option to terminate the agreement within
sixty hours of the decision by the parties to the farm-in arrangement to plug
and abandon the primary well. As at 31 December 2007 the group had incurred well
appraisal costs of US$15,927,000 on the primary well and exercised its option to
enter the second well appraisal programme on 24 January 2008. However due to
continuing uncertainties surrounding the commercial outcome of this project an
impairment provision of US$8,686,000 has been made against this asset at 31
December 2007.
On 27 August 2007, the group entered in to an exchange agreement whereby it
swapped its 29% interest in the Crawford field with a carrying value of
US$8,793,000 for a 3.12% interest in the 211/18a Block in West Don (equating to
a unit interest of 2%) for nil consideration.
Included in oil & gas asset additions above are US$32,673,000 of pre-development
capital expenditure incurred during the year on the group's Don assets. Other
intangible oil & gas additions relate to the acquisition of interests in fields.
Transfers to tangible oil & gas assets relate to the group's Don interests which
are now considered to be a part of a commercial development (note 9).
There were investing cash outflows relating to capitalised intangible oil & gas
assets of US$48,604,000 (2006: US$6,187,000) in the current period arising from
pre-development activities pertaining to the Don and NT/P68 interests. As at 31
December 2007 there were cash and deposits of US$3,582,000 (2006: nil), trade
and other receivables of US$3,106,000 (2006: nil) and trade and other payables
of US$4,840,000 (2006: nil) arising from pre-development activities in the
current period.
Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets comprise the fair values of customer contracts arising
on acquisition (note 10). Customer contracts
are being amortised over their remaining estimated economic useful life of three
years on a straight-line basis and the related amortisation charge included in
selling, general and administrative expenses (note 4e).
13 INTEREST IN JOINT VENTURES
In the normal course of business, the group establishes jointly controlled
entities and operations for the execution of certain of its operations and
contracts. A list of these joint ventures is disclosed in note 32. The group's

The credit quality of trade receivables that are neither past due nor impaired
is assessed by management with reference to externally prepared customer credit
reports and the historic payment track records of the counterparties.
Advances represent payments made to certain of the group's sub-contractors for
projects in progress, on which the related work had not been performed at the
balance sheet date.
All trade and other receivables are expected to be settled in cash.
Certain trade and other receivables will be settled in cash using currencies
other than the reporting currency of the group, and will be largely paid in
Sterling and Kuwaiti Dinars.

22 SHARE-BASED PAYMENT PLANS
Performance Share Plan (PSP)
Under the Performance Share Plan of the Company, share awards are granted to
executive Directors and a restricted number of other senior executives of the
group. The shares cliff vest at the end of three years subject to continued
employment and the achievement of certain pre-defined non-market and market
based performance conditions. The non-market based condition governing the
vesting of 50% of the total award, is subject to achieving between 15% and 25%
earning per share (EPS) growth targets over a three year period. The fair values
of the equity-settled award relating to the EPS part of the scheme are estimated
based on the quoted closing market price per Company share at the date of grant
with an assumed vesting rate per annum built into the calculation (subsequently
trued up at year end based on the actual leaver rate during the period from
award date to year end) over the three year vesting period of the plan. The fair
value and assumed vesting rates of the EPS part of the scheme are shown below:
Fair Trued up
value vesting
per rate
share
2007 award 415p 98.6%
2006 award 353p 97.7%
The remaining 50% market performance based part of these awards is dependent on
the total shareholder return (TSR) of the group compared to an index composed of
selected relevant companies. The fair value of the shares vesting under this
portion of the award is determined by an independent valuer using a Monte Carlo
simulation model taking into account the terms and conditions of the plan rules
and using the following assumptions at the date of grant:
2007 2006
award award
Expected share price volatility 29.0% 28.0%
(based on median of comparator group's three year
volatilities)
Share price correlation with comparator group 17.0% 10.0%
Risk-free interest rate 5.2% 4.6%
Expected life of share award 3 years 3 years
Fair value of TSR portion 245p 234p
The number of ordinary shares awarded in the year in relation to the PSP was
449,537 (2006: 431,194). 864,181 (2006: 431,194) of the 2006 and 2007 awards
were still outstanding but not exercisable at 31 December 2007. The charge
recognised in the current year amounted to US$1,497,000 (2006: US$536,000).
Deferred Bonus Share Plan (DBSP)
Executive Directors and selected employees are eligible to participate in this
scheme although the Remuneration Committee decided during 2007 that executive
Directors should no longer participate. Participants may be invited to elect or
in some cases, be required, to receive a proportion of any bonus in ordinary
shares of the Company ("Invested Awards"). Following such award, the Company
will generally grant the participant an additional award over a number of shares
bearing a specified ratio to the number of his or her invested shares ("Matching
Shares"). The 2006 awards vest on the third anniversary of the grant date
provided that the participant did not leave the group's employment, subject to a
limited number of exceptions. However, a change in the rules of the DBSP scheme
was approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Company on 11
May 2007 such that for the March 2007 share awards and for any awards made
thereafter, the invested and matching shares would, unless the Remuneration
Committee of the Board of Directors determined otherwise, vest 33.33% on the
first anniversary of the date of grant, a further 33.33% after year two and the
final 33.34% of the award after the end of year three.
At the year end the values of the bonuses settled by shares cannot be determined
until all employees have confirmed the voluntary portion of their bonus they
wish to be settled by shares rather than cash and until the Remuneration
Committee has approved the mandatory portion of the employee bonuses to be
settled in shares. Once the voluntary and mandatory portions of the bonus to be
settled in shares are determined, the final bonus liability to be settled in
shares is transferred to the reserve for share-based payments. The costs
relating to the matching shares are recognised over the relevant vesting period
and the fair values of the equity-settled matching shares granted to employees
are based on the quoted closing market price at the date of grant adjusted for
the trued up percentage vesting rate of the plan. For details of the fair values
and assumed vesting rates of the DBSP scheme see table below:
Weighted Trued up
average vesting
fair rate
value

share
2007 awards 415p 94.7%

During the year 791,083 (2006: 597,167) Invested Awards and 791,083 (2006:
548,214) Matching Shares were granted to the participants in the scheme and
1,058,413 of the original 2006 awards and 1,500,298 of the 2007 awards (2006
awards: 1,104,503) were outstanding but not exercisable at 31 December 2007. The
charge recognised in the 2007 income statement in relation to matching share
awards amounted to US$2,393,000 in respect of 2007 awards and US$1,018,000 in
respect of the second year of the 2006 awards (2006 year one awards charge:
US$666,000).
Share Incentive Plan (SIP)
All UK employees, including UK resident Directors, are eligible to participate
in the scheme. Employees may invest up to GBP1,500 per tax year of gross salary
(or, if less, 10% of salary) to purchase ordinary shares in the Company. There
is no holding period for these shares.
Restricted Share Plan (RSP)
Under the Restricted Share Plan scheme, employees are granted shares in the
Company over a discretionary vesting period which may or may not be, at the
direction of the Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors, subject to
the satisfaction of performance conditions. At present there are no performance
conditions applying to this scheme nor is there currently any intention to
introduce them in the future. The fair values of the awards granted under the
plan at various grant dates during the year are based on the quoted market price
at the date of grant adjusted for an assumed vesting rate over the relevant
vesting period. For details of the fair values and assumed vesting rate of the
RSP scheme, see table below:
Weighted Trued up
average vesting
fair rate
value

share
2007 awards 456p 100.0%
2006 awards 278p 96.3%
The Company awarded 239,567 (2006: 161,101) shares to participants in the scheme
during the year and recognised a charge of US$504,000 in the current year income
statement (2006: US$79,000). At 31 December 2007, there were 394,216 (2006:
161,101) share awards outstanding but not exercisable.
The group has recognised a total charge of US$5,412,000 (2006: US$1,281,000) in
the income statement during the year relating to the above employee share-based
schemes (see note 4f) which has been transferred to the reserve for share-based
payments along with US$6,105,000 of the bonus liability accrued for the year
ended 31 December 2006 which has been voluntarily elected or mandatorily obliged
to be settled in shares granted during the year (2006: US$3,363,000).

=========================================================
Nature and purpose of other reserves
Net unrealised gains / (losses) on available-for-sale financial assets
This reserve records fair value changes on available-for-sale financial assets
held by the group net of deferred tax effects. Realised gains and losses on the
sale of available-for-sale financial assets are recognised as other income or
expenses in the income statement.
Net unrealised gains / (losses) on derivatives
The portion of gains or losses on cash flow hedging instruments that are
determined to be effective hedges are included within this reserve net of
related deferred tax effects. When the hedged transaction occurs or is no longer
forecast to occur the gain or loss is transferred out of equity to the income
statement. Realised net gains amounting to US$21,475,000 (2006: US$1,963,000)
relating to foreign currency forward contracts have been recognised in cost of
sales and realised net gains of US$708,000 (2006: US$415,000) relating to
interest rate derivatives have been classified as a net interest expense.
Foreign currency translation reserve
The foreign currency translation reserve is used to record exchange differences
arising from the translation of the financial statements in foreign
subsidiaries. It is also used to record exchange differences arising on monetary
items that form part of the group's net investment in subsidiaries.
Reserve for share-based payments
The reserve for share-based payments is used to record the value of equity
settled share-based payments awarded to employees and transfers out of this
reserve are made upon vesting of the original share awards.
The transfer during the year reflects the transfer from accrued expenses within
trade and other payables of the bonus liability relating to the year ended 2006
of US$6,105,000 (2005 bonus of US$3,363,000) which has been voluntarily elected
or mandatorily obliged to be settled in shares during the year (see note 22 for
further information on this share-based payment scheme).

========================================
Other long- term employment benefits provision
Labour laws in certain countries in which the group operates require employers
to provide for other long- term employment benefits. These benefits are payable
to employees at the end of their period of employment. The provision for these
long- term benefits is calculated based on the employees' last drawn salary at
the balance sheet date and length of service, subject to the completion of a
minimum service period in accordance with the local labour laws of the
jurisdictions in which the group operates.
Provision for decommissioning
The decommissioning provision primarily relates to the Company's obligation for
the removal of facilities and restoration of the site at the PM304 field in
Malaysia. The liability is discounted at the rate of 3.5% and the unwinding of
the discount is classified as a finance cost (note 5). The Company estimates
that the cash outflow against this provision will arise in 2014.

31 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Risk management objectives and policies
The group's principal financial assets and liabilities, other than derivatives,
comprise trade and other receivables, cash and short -term deposits, interest
bearing loans and borrowings, trade and other payables and deferred
consideration.
The group's activities expose it to various financial risks particularly
associated with interest rate risk on its variable rate loans and borrowings and
foreign currency risk on both conducting business in currencies other than
reporting currency as well as translation of the assets and liabilities of
foreign operations to the reporting currency. These risks are being addressed by
using a combination of various derivative instruments, principally interest rate
swaps, caps and forward currency contracts in line with the group's hedging
policy. The group has a policy not to enter into speculative trading of
financial derivatives.
The Board of Directors of the Company has established an Audit Committee and
Risk Committee to help identify, evaluate and manage the significant financial
risks faced by the group and their activities are discussed in detail on pages X
to Y of the financial statements.
The other main risks besides interest rate and foreign currency risk arising
from the group's financial instruments are credit risk, liquidity risk and
commodity price risk and the policies relating to these risks are discussed in
detail below:
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates
will affect the value of the group's interest-bearing financial liabilities and
assets.
The group's exposure to market risk arising from changes in interest rates
relates primarily to the group's long-term variable rate debt obligations and
its cash and bank balances. The group's policy is to manage its interest cost
using a mix of fixed and variable rate debt and specifically to keep between 60%
and 80% of its term borrowings at fixed or capped rates of interest. At 31
December 2007, after taking into account the effect of interest rate swaps and
collars, approximately 69.1% (2006: 64.8%) of the group's term borrowings are at
a fixed or capped rate of interest.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis
The impact on the group's pre-tax profit and equity due to a reasonably possible
change in interest rates is demonstrated in the table below. The analysis
assumes that all other variables remain constant.

Financial liabilities in the above table are disclosed gross of debt acquisition
costs of US$2,332,000 (2006: US$1,770,000).
Interest on financial instruments classified as floating rate is repriced at
intervals of less than one year. The other financial instruments of the group
that are not included in the above tables are non-interest bearing and are
therefore not subject to interest rate risk.
Derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges
At 31 December 2007, the group held the following derivative instruments,
designated as cash flow hedges in relation to floating rate interest-bearing
loans and borrowings:

During 2007 changes in fair value of US$-102,000 (2006: US$501,000) relating to
these derivative instruments were taken to equity and US$708,000 (2006:
US$415,000) were recycled from equity into interest expense in the income
statement.
Foreign currency risk
The group is exposed to foreign currency risk on sales, purchases, and
translation of assets and liabilities that are in a currency other than the
functional currency of its operating units. The group is also exposed to the
translation of the functional currencies of its units to the US dollar reporting
currency of the group. The following table summarises the percentage of foreign
currency denominated revenues, costs, financial assets and financial
liabilities, expressed in US dollar terms, of the group totals. Included in the
foreign currency analysis below are currencies that are pegged to the US dollar
and therefore the group is not exposed to foreign currency risk on these
amounts.
2007 2006

Revenues 48.6% 70.1%

Non-current financial assets 0.6% 2.8%
Current financial liabilities 45.8% 48.0%
Non-current financial liabilities 44.0% 49.8%
The group uses forward currency contracts to manage the currency exposure on
transactions significant to its operations. It is the group's policy not to
enter into forward contracts until a firm commitment is in place and to
negotiate the terms of the derivative instruments used for hedging to match the
terms of the hedged item to maximise hedge effectiveness.
Foreign currency sensitivity analysis
The income statements of foreign operations are translated into the reporting
currency using a weighted average rate of conversion. Foreign currency monetary
items are translated using the closing rate at the date of the balance sheet.
Revenues and costs in currencies other than the functional currency of an
operating unit are recorded at the prevailing rate at the date of the
transaction. The following significant exchange rates applied during the year in
relation to US dollars:
2007 2006
Average Closing Average Closing

The following table summarises the impact on the group's pre-tax profit and
equity (due to change in the fair value of monetary assets, liabilities and
derivative instruments) of a reasonably possible change in US dollar exchange
rates with respect to different currencies:

Derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges
At 31 December 2007, the group had foreign exchange forward contracts designated
as cash flow hedges with a fair value gain of US$28,657,000 (2006: US$8,840,000)
as follows:

-----------------
28,657 8,840
=================
The above foreign exchange contracts mature and will affect income between
January 2008 and February 2009 (2006: between January 2007 and February 2008).
During 2007, changes in fair value of US$41,500,000 (2006: US$22,430,000)
relating to these derivative instruments were taken to equity and US$21,475,000
(2006: US$1,963,000) were recycled from equity into cost of sales in the income
statement.
Commodity price risk - oil prices
The group is exposed to the impact of changes in oil prices on its revenues and
profits generated from sales of crude oil. The group did not hedge this risk in
the current year as the exposure to movements in the price of oil primarily
relating to the Cendor field in Malaysia were not considered significant.
However in late 2007, the group introduced a new oil production hedging strategy
whereby on a project by project basis it evaluates the size of the potential oil
price exposure and using the near term forward oil price curve aims to hedge up
to 75% of its current year P90 production forecasts.
On 23 November 2007, the group entered into a zero premium oil price collar to
hedge its exposure to fluctuations in oil prices which mature on a monthly basis
from 31 January 2008 to 31 December 2008. The collar hedges 240,000 barrels of
oil production with a floor price of US$85.00 per barrel and a capped price of
US$102.30 per barrel. The fair value of the oil price collar at 31 December 2007
was US$336,000 with a corresponding gain recognised in equity.
The following table summarises the impact on the group's pre-tax profit and
equity (due to a change in the fair value of oil derivative instruments and the
overlifting liability) of a reasonably possible change in the oil price:

Credit risk
The group trades only with recognised, creditworthy third parties. Divisional
Risk Review Committees (DRRC) have been set up by the Board of Directors to
evaluate the creditworthiness of each individual third party at the time of
entering into new contracts. Limits have been placed on the approval authority
of the DRRC above which the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company is
required. Receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result
that the group's exposure to bad debts is not considered a key risk. At 31
December 2007, the group's five largest customers accounted for 58.0% of
outstanding trade receivables and work in progress (2006: 66.3%).
With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the
group, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale financial
assets and certain derivative instruments, the group's exposure to credit risk
arises from default of the counterparty, with a maximum exposure equal to the
carrying amount of these instruments.
Liquidity risk
The group's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and
flexibility through the use of overdrafts, revolving credit facilities, project
finance and term loans to reduce its exposure to liquidity risk. The maturity
profiles of the group's financial liabilities at 31 December 2007 are as

The group uses various funded facilities provided by banks and its own financial
assets to fund the above mentioned financial liabilities.
Capital management
The group's policy is to maintain a healthy capital base to sustain future
growth and maximise shareholder value.
The group seeks to optimise shareholder returns by maintaining a balance between
debt and capital and monitors the efficiency of its capital structure on a
regular basis. The gearing ratio and return on shareholders' equity is as

==========================================
Market values have been used to determine the fair values of available-for-sale
financial assets and forward currency contracts. The fair values of interest
rate swaps, collars and caps have been calculated by discounting the expected
future cash flows at prevailing interest rates. The fair values of long-term
interest-bearing loans and borrowings are their amortised costs determined as
the present value of discounted future cash flows using the effective interest
rate. The Company considers that the carrying amounts of trade and other
receivables, trade and other payables, other current and non-current financial
assets and liabilities approximate their fair values and are therefore excluded
from the above table.
