and the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority.
Basis of preparation
The payments disclosed, which are on a cash basis, are based on
where the obligation for the payment arose (i.e. at a project or
corporate level). Where a payment or a series of related payments
do not exceed GBP86,000, they are not required to be disclosed
under the UK Regulations, however this has been disclosed in
aggregate at a corporate level for clarity over obligations.
All of the payments disclosed in accordance with the Directive
have been made to national Governments, either directly or through
a Ministry or Department of the national Government, with the
exception of the Malaysian payments in respect of production
entitlements, supplementary payments, royalties, research CESS and
education commitment payments which are paid to PETRONAS (
Petroliam Nasional Berhad, the National Oil Company of
Malaysia).

Production entitlements expressed in barrels
This includes non-cash royalties and state non-participating
interest paid in barrels of oil or gas out of EnQuest's working
interest share of production in a licence. The figures disclosed
are produced on an entitlement basis rather than a liftings basis.
It does not include the Government's or National Oil Company's
working interest share of production in a licence. Production
entitlements are assessed on a quarterly basis and are valued at
the price used to determine entitlement under the terms of the
production sharing contract.
Taxes
This represents cash tax calculated on the basis of profits
including income or capital gains. Income taxes are usually
reflected in corporate income tax returns. The cash payment of
income taxes occurs in the year in which the tax has arisen or up
to one year later. Income taxes also include any cash tax rebates
received from the Government or revenue authority during the year
and excludes fines and penalties.
Royalties
This represents cash royalties paid to Governments during the
year for the extraction of oil or gas. The terms of the royalties
are described within our Production Sharing Contracts ('PSC') and
can vary from project to project within one country. Royalties paid
in kind have been recognised within the production entitlements
category.
Licence fees
This represents total, rather than working interest share of,
licence fees, rental fees, entry fees and other levies or
consideration for licences and/or concessions paid for access to an
area during the year (with the exception of signature bonuses which
are captured within bonus payments if applicable).
Research CESS
Research CESS payments are contractual amounts due under the
PM-8E PSC and are based on EnQuest's entitlement to production.
These payments are made to PETRONAS.
Supplementary payments
Supplementary payments are required under the PM-8E PSC and are
based on EnQuest's entitlement to profit oil and profit gas. These
payments are made to PETRONAS.
For the purposes of compliance with the Swedish Act on Reporting
of Payments to Governments, there have been no dividends or
payments for infrastructure improvements and, other than disclosed
in the tables above, there have been no signature, discovery and
production bonuses, and no licence fees, rental fees, entry fees or
other considerations for licences and/or concessions.
