"Our Produced Revenues increased close to 40% in 2022. We had a slow start to
the year with approximately half the fleet idle, but from early Q2 our vessel
utilization improved significantly, and the recovering seismic market is evident
from our financial numbers.
Along with the structurally growing effort to optimize producing fields among
larger energy companies, we experience a strong renewed focus on exploration,
including frontier areas. This benefits both our contract and MultiClient
acquisition activity and contributed to a strong increase of contract revenues
and easier access to pre-funding for new MultiClient projects. The full year
Produced Pre-funding level ended at 123% of MultiClient cash investments, above
our targeted range.
MultiClient late sales were the second highest on record and almost 50% higher
than in 2021. We have a geographically diverse, modern and very attractive
MultiClient library, which we expect will continue to deliver very good results.
With increasing cash flow generation and strong shareholder support we have
reduced our net debt significantly and we are well positioned to refinance
during 2023.
We increased our order book by 74% in 2022 and it is now at the highest level
since Q3 2014. The order book reflects increasing rates and higher activity and
we expect both to continue on a positive trend in 2023."

President and Chief Executive Officer
Outlook
PGS expects global energy consumption to continue to increase longer term with
oil and gas remaining an important part of the energy mix, as the global energy
transition evolves. Offshore reserves will be vital for future energy supply and
support demand for marine seismic services. With high oil and gas prices, the
seismic market is recovering. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has significantly
increased the general focus on energy security and, combined with several years
of low investment in new oil and gas supplies, has further increased oil and gas
prices and investment pressures on energy companies.
Offshore investments in oil and gas exploration and production are expected to
increase in 2023. The seismic acquisition market is likely to benefit from the
higher exploration and production spending, and a limited supply of seismic
vessels.
PGS expects full year 2023 gross cash costs to be approximately $550 million.
The increase from 2022 is primarily due to the higher activity level and more
capacity in operation.
2023 MultiClient cash investments are expected to be approximately $160 million.
Approximately 60% of 2023 active 3D vessel time is expected to be allocated to
contract work.
Capital expenditures for 2023 is expected to be approximately $100 million.
The Order book (which now only includes revenues related to future production,
ref. definition of the APM “Order book” in Appendix) amounted to $416 million on
December 31, 2022. On September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Order book
was $253 million and $239 million, respectively. The order book on a basis
consistent with IFRS 15 (which includes deferred revenues relating to production
already performed) totaled $517 million on December 31, 2022. Reference is made
to Note 1. Comparable order book numbers can be found in Appendix.
