 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Exploration and Exploitation division’s loss before tax in 2017 was mainly caused by the impairment loss recognized on the following sites: Prelude and Ichthys in Australia. Sales volume of the LNG business division increased compared to the same period of last year so that the profit increased. That the profit before tax in refining and marketing activities increased compared to the same period of last year was mainly driven by the stabilizing of international oil price, along with the refinery operation’s significant improvement on production capacity and efficiency, resulting in higher profit margin and profit before tax.
