Forward-looking statements in this Report may include, but are not limited to, levels of revenues, gross margins, income from operations, net income or earnings per share; levels of capital, exploration, environmental or maintenance expenditures; the success or timing of completion of ongoing or anticipated capital, exploration or maintenance projects; volumes of production, sales, throughput or shipments of liquid hydrocarbons, natural gas and refined products; levels of worldwide prices of liquid hydrocarbons, natural gas and refined products; levels of reserves, proved or otherwise, of liquid hydrocarbons and natural gas; the acquisition or divestiture of assets; the effect of restructuring or reorganization of business components; the potential effect of judicial proceedings on our business and financial condition; and the anticipated effects of actions of third parties such as competitors, or federal, foreign, state or local regulatory authorities.
Marathon Oil Corporation was originally organized in 2001 as USX HoldCo, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the former USX Corporation. As a result of a reorganization completed in July 2001, USX HoldCo, Inc. (1) became the parent entity of the consolidated enterprise (the former USX Corporation was merged into a subsidiary of USX HoldCo, Inc.) and (2) changed its name to USX Corporation. In connection with the transaction described in the next paragraph (the “Separation”"Separation"), USX Corporation changed its name to Marathon Oil Corporation.
Before December 31, 2001, Marathon had two outstanding classes of common stock: USX-Marathon Group common stock, which was intended to reflect the performance of our energy business, and USX-U.S. Steel Group common stock (“("Steel Stock”Stock"), which was intended to reflect the performance of our steel business. On December 31, 2001, we disposed of our steel business through a tax-free distribution of the common stock of our wholly-owned subsidiary United States Steel Corporation (“("United States Steel”Steel") to holders of Steel Stock in exchange for all outstanding shares of Steel Stock on a one-for-one basis.
In connection with the Separation, our certificate of incorporation was amended on December 31, 2001 and fromsince that date, Marathon has only one class of common stock authorized.
On June 30, 2005, we acquired the 38 percent ownership interest in Marathon Ashland Petroleum LLC (“MAP”("MAP") previously held by Ashland Inc. (“Ashland”("Ashland"). In addition, we acquired a portion of Ashland’sAshland's Valvoline Instant Oil Change business, its maleic anhydride business, its interest in LOOP LLC which owns and operates the only U.S. deepwater oil port, and its interest in LOCAP LLC which owns a crude oil pipeline. As a result of the transactions (the “Acquisition”"Acquisition"), MAP is now wholly owned by Marathon and its name was changed to Marathon Petroleum Company LLC (“MPC”("MPC") effective September 1, 2005.
Our operations consist of three operating segments: 1) Exploration and Production (“("E&P”&P") – explores for, produces and producesmarkets crude oil and natural gas on a worldwide basis; 2) Refining, Marketing and Transportation (“("RM&T”&T") – refines, markets and transports crude oil and petroleum products, primarily in the Midwest, the upper Great Plains and southeastern United States; and 3) Integrated Gas (“IG”("IG") – markets and transports natural gas and products manufactured from natural gas, such as liquefied natural gas (“LNG”("LNG") and methanol, on a worldwide basis.basis, and is developing other projects to link stranded natural gas resources with key demand areas. For operating segment and geographic financial information, see Note 89 to the consolidated financial statements.
(In the discussion that follows regarding our exploration and production operations, references to “net”"net" wells, production or sales indicate our ownership interest or share, as the context requires.)

Our 20052006 worldwide net liquid hydrocarbon sales from continuing operations averaged 191,000223 thousand barrels per day (“bpd”("mbpd"), an increase of 1236 percent from 20042005 levels. Our 20052006 worldwide net natural gas sales, including natural gas acquired for injection and subsequent resale, averaged 932847 million cubic feet per day (“mmcfd”("mmcfd"), a decrease of 79 percent compared to 2004.2005. In total, our 20052006 worldwide net sales from continuing operations averaged 346,000365 thousand barrels of oil equivalent (“boe”("mboe") per day, compared to 337,000 boe319 mboe per day in 2004.2005. (For purposes of determining boe, natural gas volumes are converted to approximate liquid hydrocarbon barrels by dividing the natural gas volumes expressed in thousands of cubic feet (“mcf”("mcf") by six. The liquid hydrocarbon volume is added to the barrel equivalent of natural gas volume to obtain boe.) In 2006,2007, our worldwide net production available for sale is expected to average approximately 365,000390 to 395,000 boe425 mboe per day, including 40,000 to 45,000 bpd from our Libya operations, excluding future acquisitions and dispositions.
The above projections of 2006 Libya and2007 worldwide net liquid hydrocarbon and natural gas sales and production available for sale volumes are forward-looking statements. Some factors that could potentially affect timing and levels of production available for sale include pricing, supply and demand for petroleum products, the amount of capital available for exploration and development, regulatory constraints, production decline rates of mature fields, timing of commencing production from new wells, drilling rig availability, inability to or delay in obtaining necessary government and third-party approvals and permits, unforeseen hazards such as weather conditions, acts of war or terrorist acts and the governmentgovernmental or military response, thereto, and other geological, operating and economic considerations. These factors (among others) could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
Exploration
In the United States during 2005,2006, we drilled 33 gross (21(16 net) exploratory wells of which 2921 gross (18(10 net) wells encountered commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. Of these 2921 wells, one6 gross (zero(4 net) well waswells were temporarily suspended.suspended or were in the process of completing at year end. Internationally, we drilled 1321 gross (six(4 net) exploratory wells of which 1116 gross (five(3 net) wells encountered commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. Of these 1116 wells, 9 gross (five(3 net) wells all were temporarily suspended or arewere in the process of completing.
United States – The Gulf of Mexico continues to be a core area for us with the potential to add new reserves.us. At the end of 2005,2006, we had interests in 129 blocks in the Gulf of Mexico, including 96100 in the deepwater area.
During 2006, we increased our interest from 20 percent to 30 percent in the Stones prospect (Walker Ridge Block 508). An appraisal well is planned for 2007 on this outside-operated 2005 discovery.
In 2001, a successful discovery well was drilled on the Ozona prospect (Garden Banks blockBlock 515) in the Gulf of Mexico and, in 2002, two sidetrack wells were drilled, one of which was successful. Our plansWe are continuing to evaluate options to develop this as a subsea tieback to area infrastructure.the Ozona prospect. Commercial terms have been secured for the tiebacktie-back and processing of Ozona production and we are attempting to securehave been actively searching for a drilling rig to drill the development well. We hold a 68 percent operated interest in the Ozona prospect.
A well on the Flathead prospect (Walker Ridge blockBlock 30) in the Gulf of Mexico was suspended in 2002. Technical evaluations are complete and commercial evaluations continued during 2005in 2006. The drilling of this prospect is delayed due to the shortage of available deepwater rigs. We continue to pursue partnering opportunities with other oil and are progressing towards a possible re-entry and sidetrack before 2008. In 2005, a well drilled on a block directly offsetting the Flathead prospect encountered hydrocarbons.gas companies that have deepwater rigs under contract. We hold a 100 percent operated interest in the Flathead prospect.
Norway – We hold interests in over 1 million700,000 gross acres offshore Norway and plan to continue our exploration effort there. In late 2005,2006, we began drilling anparticipated in a successful appraisal well aton the outside-operated Gudrun discovery, which we expect will be completed infield, located 120 miles off the first quarter of 2006 and followed by an evaluation of the well results.

also participated in four wells that have reached total depth, the results of which will be announced upon government and partner approvals. We expect to participate in 10 or 11 wells on these blocks which reinforces the potential of this trend.in 2007.
On Block 31, we have four previously announced discoveries which(Plutao, Saturno, Marte and Venus) and one successful appraisal well form a potentialplanned development area in the northeastern portion of the block (Plutao, Saturo, Marte and Venus). In 2005,block. Also on Block 31, we announcedhad five additionalpreviously announced discoveries located in the southeastern partportion of Block 31the block (Palas, Ceres, Juno, Astraea and Hebe). In 2006 and early 2007, we announced discoveries at Urano, Titania, Terra and an unnamed well. We are integrating the results of these wells with our previously announced discoveries.
On Block 32, we previously announced the Gindungothree discoveries (Gindungo, Canela and Canela discoveries.Gengibre). In 2005,2006, we announced the Gengibrefourth discovery on Block 32, the Mostarda-1, and also had a successful appraisaldeepwater delineation well, on this discovery. Lastly,Gengibre-2. We also announced that hydrocarbons were encountered in the Salsa well, but additional drilling is required to assess its commerciality. In early 2006,2007, we announced another discovery ontwo additional discoveries, the Mostarda prospect. Continued exploration success reinforces the potential forManjericao and Caril wells. These discoveries move Block 32 closer toward establishment of a commercial development on Block 32.
Equatorial Guinea – During 2004, we participated in two natural gas and condensate discoveries on the Alba Block offshore Equatorial Guinea. The Deep Luba discovery well, drilled from the Alba field production platform, encountered natural gas and condensate in several pay zones. The Gardenia discovery well is located approximately 11 miles southwest of the Alba Field. We are currently evaluating development scenarios for both the Deep Luba and Gardenia discoveries. These discoveries reinforce the potential of the Alba Block, in which we ownWe hold a 63 percent interest.
In 2003,2004, we announced a natural gas discoverythe results of the Corona well drilled on Block D offshore Equatorial Guinea, where we are the operator with a 90 percent working interest. The discoveryCorona well is on the Bococo prospect, which is approximately six miles westconfirmed an extension of the Alba field. The well has been suspendedfield on to Block D. An application for re-entryan Area of Commercial Discovery was submitted prior to the end of the production sharing contract's exploration period, which expired at a later date. Development scenarios for the Bococo gas discovery alongend of 2006. We are currently in discussions with three earlier dry gas discoveries onthe Equatorial Guinea government regarding our rights to develop the Block D are being considered for further development.
Libya – We hold a 16 percent outside-operated interest in the Waha concessions, which encompass almost 13 million acres located in the Sirte Basin. Our exploration program in 2006 included the drilling of 12 wells, nine of which were successful. Most of these discoveries extended previously defined hydrocarbon accumulations.
Canada – We are the operator and own a 30 percent interest in the Annapolis lease offshore Nova Scotia.Scotia, where we continue to evaluate further drilling. In addition,late 2006, we operatedecided to withdraw from the adjacent Cortland lease, where we ownhold a 75 percent interest, and the adjacent Empire lease, where we ownhold a 50 percent interest.
Indonesia – We are the operator and hold a 70 percent interest in the Pasangkayu Block offshore Indonesia. The 1.2 million acre block is located mostly in deep water, predominantly offshore of the island of Sulawesi in the Makassar Strait, directly east of the Kutei Basin oil and natural gas production region. The production sharing contract with the Indonesian government was signed in 2006. We expect to begin collecting geophysical data in 2007, followed by exploratory drilling in 2008 and 2009.
Production (including development activities)
United States – Approximately 40Our U.S. operation accounted for 34 percent of our 20052006 worldwide net liquid hydrocarbon sales from continuing operations and 6263 percent of our worldwide net natural gas sales were produced from U.S. operations.
During 2005,2006, our productionnet sales in the Gulf of Mexico averaged 33,800 bpd35 mbpd of liquid hydrocarbons, representing 4446 percent of our total U.S. net liquid hydrocarbon sales, and 8443 mmcfd of natural gas, representing 148 percent of our total U.S. net natural gas sales. Net liquid hydrocarbon productionsales in the Gulf of Mexico decreased by 1,900 bpd and net natural gas production decreased by 16 mmcfdincreased slightly from the prior year. The decrease in production isyear, mainly due to natural field declines and the effects of five tropical storms or storms/hurricanes duringin 2005. In September 2004, our Petronius platform suffered damageNet natural gas sales decreased by 41 mmcfd from Hurricane Ivan and was outthe prior year primarily because natural gas sales from the Camden Hills field ended in early 2006 as a result of service until March 2005.increased water production. At year-end 2005,2006, we held interests in eightseven producing fields and seveneight platforms in the Gulf of Mexico, of which four platforms are operated by Marathon.
The majority of our sales in the Gulf of Mexico comes from the Petronius development in Viosca Knoll Blocks 786 and 830. We own a 50 percent outside-operated interest in these blocks. The platform provides processing and transportation services to adjacent third-party fields. For example, Petronius processes the production from our Perseus field which commenced production in April 2005 and is located five miles from the platform.

We hold a 30 percent outside-operated interest in the Neptune deepwater development on Atwater Valley Blocks 573, 574, 575, 617 and 618 in the Gulf of Mexico, 120 miles off the coast of Louisiana. The initial development plan for Neptune was sanctioned in 2005 and includes seven subsea wells tied back to a stand-alone mini-tension leg platform. Construction of the platform and facility continued through 2006 with first production expected in early 2008.
We are one of the largest natural gas producers in the Cook Inlet and adjacent Kenai Peninsula of Alaska. In 20052006, our Alaskan net natural gas sales averaged 167156 mmcfd, representing 29 percent of our total U.S. net natural gas sales. Our natural gas productionsales from Alaska isare seasonal in nature, trending down during the second and third quarters of each year and increasing during the fourth and first quartersquarters. In May 2006, upon receipt of regulatory approvals, we began to produce and store natural gas in a partially depleted reservoir in the Kenai natural gas field. The natural gas in storage will be used to manage supplies to meet local market winter demands.contractual demand. In addition to our operations in other established Alaskan fields, production from the Ninilchik field began in 2003 and development continues on the field. Ninilchik natural gas is transported through the32-mile 35-mile portion of the Kenai Kachemak Pipeline which connects Ninilchik to the existing natural gas pipeline infrastructure serving residential, utility and industrial markets on the Kenai Peninsula, in Anchorage and in other parts of south central Alaska. We operate Ninilchik and own a 60 percent interest in it and the section of the Kenai Kachemak Pipeline described above. Our 20052006 development program in the Cook Inlet included participation in the drilling of sixseven wells.
Net liquid hydrocarbon sales from our Wyoming fields averaged 20,700 bpd21 mbpd in 2005 compared to 21,200 bpd in 2004.2006 and 2005. Net natural gas sales from our Wyoming fields averaged 104119 mmcfd in 20052006 compared to 108107 mmcfd in 2004.2005. The decreaseincrease in our Wyoming net natural gas sales is primarily attributed to lower productionhigher net sales from the Powder River Basin, which averaged 77 mmcfd in 2006 compared to 66 mmcfd in 2005 compared to 69 mmcfd in 2004 primarily as a result of natural field decline, partially offset by development drilling.2005 drilling activity. Development of the Powder River Basin continued in 20052006 with approximately119 wells drilled, which was down from the 195 wells drilled comparedin 2005 due to approximately 230 wells drilled in 2004. Water discharge regulations impacted the pace of development in the Powder River Basin in 2005.project delays primarily caused by regulatory and produced water management issues. Additional development of our southwest Wyoming interests continued in 20052006 where we participated in the drilling of 3527 wells.
Net natural gas sales from our Oklahoma fields averaged 87 mmcfd in 2006 compared to 77 mmcfd in 2005 compared to 82 mmcfd in 2004 primarily as a result of natural field decline, partially offset by development and exploratory drilling. Our 20052006 development program continued to focus in the Anadarko Basin where we participated in the drilling of 8275 wells.
4 Net natural gas sales from our east Texas and north Louisiana fields averaged 71 mmcfd in 2006 compared to 75 mmcfd in 2005. This decrease is primarily attributable to sour gas handling capacity limits at the natural gas plants that purchase our east Texas natural gas, partially offset by development drilling results. Active development of the Mimms Creek field in east Texas continued in 2006.
In addition, active development of the Mimms Creek field in East Texas continued in 2005.
In July 2006, we completed a natural gas leasehold acquisition in the Piceance Basin of Colorado, located in Garfield County in the Greater Grand Valley field complex. The acreage is located near adjacent production. Our plans include drilling approximately 700 wells over the next ten years with first production expected in late 2007 or early 2008 reaching full production during 2008.
We continue to assess our acreage position in the Gulf of MexicoBarnett Shale gas play in north central Texas. To date, we have leased approximately 85,000 net acres in two counties. One core well and five miles from the Petronius platform. Production from the initial development well at Perseushorizontal wells have been drilled and completion activity is underway on these first wells. Seismic data was expected to beginacquired in 2004 but, due to hurricane activity in September 2004 and the resulting damage to the Petronius platform, production was delayed. The initial long-reach development well was drilled from the Petronius platform reaching a total depth of 30,855 feet, and first production commenced in April 2005. Drilling of a second long-reach development well began in September 20052006 and is expected to reach the planned total depth of 31,598 feet in the first quarter of 2006. First production from this second well is anticipated in the second quarter of 2006. We own a 50 percent outside-operated interest in this block.
United Kingdom – Our largest asset in the U.K. sector of the North Sea is the Brae area complex where we are the operator and have a 42 percent interest in the South, Central, North and West Brae fields and a 38 percent interest in the East Brae field. The Brae A platform and facilities host the underlying South Brae field and the adjacent Central Brae field and West Brae/SedgwickBrae fields. The North Brae field, which is produced via the Brae B platform, and the East Brae field are gas condensate fields. Our share of sales from the Brae area averaged 18,300 bpd15 mbpd of liquid hydrocarbons in 2005,2006, compared with 15,900 bpd18 mbpd in 2004. The increase2005. This reduction primarily resulted from West Brae field decline and the timing of sales of liquid hydrocarbons and improved performance from the West Brae reservoir.hydrocarbons. Our share of Brae natural gas sales averaged 169151 mmcfd, which was lower than the 197169 mmcfd in 20042005 as a result of natural field declines in the North and East Brae gas condensate fields.

The strategic location of the Brae platforms along with pipeline and onshore infrastructure has generated third-party processing and transportation business since 1986. Currently, there are 23 agreements with28 third-party fields contracted to use the Brae system. In addition to generating processing and pipeline tariff revenue, this third-party business also has a favorable impact on Brae area operations by optimizing infrastructure usage and extending the economic life of the complex.
The Brae group owns a 50 percent interest in the outside-operated Scottish Area Gas Evacuation (“SAGE”("SAGE") system. The Beryl group owns the remaining 50 percent. The SAGE pipeline transports gas from the Brae and the third-party Beryl areas and has a total wet natural gas capacity of approximately 1.1 billion cubic feet (“bcf”("bcf") per day. The SAGE terminal at St. Fergus in northeast Scotland processes natural gas from the SAGE pipeline and 0.8almost 1 bcf per day of third-party natural gas from the third-party Britannia field.
In the U.K. Atlantic Margin, we own an approximate 30 percent interest in the outside-operated Foinaven area complex, consisting of a 28 percent interest in the main Foinaven field, 47 percent of East Foinaven and 20 percent of the T35 and T25 accumulations, each of which has a single well.accumulations. Our share of sales from the Foinaven fields averaged 16,000 bpd17 mbpd of liquid hydrocarbons and 910 mmcfd of natural gas in 2005,2006, compared to 21,900 bpd16 mbpd and 109 mmcfd in 2004,2005, primarily as a result of increased liquid handling capacity following facility modifications, increased well potential and improved operating efficiency.
Norway – Norway is a strategic and growing core area, which complements our long-standing operations in the timingU.K. sector of sales ofthe North Sea discussed above. We were approved for our first operatorship on the Norwegian continental shelf in 2002, where today we operate seven licenses.
During 2006, net liquid hydrocarbons; however, reliability issueshydrocarbon and natural gas sales in Norway from the Heimdal, Vale and Skirne fields averaged 2 mbpd and 36 mmcfd. We own a 24 percent outside-operated interest in the Heimdal field, declines also contributed toa 47 percent outside-operated interest in the decrease.
We are the operator and own a 65 percent interest inof the Alvheim complex located on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. This development is comprised of the Kameleon and Kneler and Boa discoveries, in which we have a 65 percent interest, and the previously undeveloped Kameleon accumulation.Boa discovery, in which we have a 58 percent interest. During 2004, we received approval from the Norwegian authorities for our Alvheim plan offor development and operation (“PDO”("PDO"), which will consist of a floating production, storage and offloading vessel (“FPSO”("FPSO") with subsea infrastructure for five drill centers and associated flow lines. The PDO also outlines transportation of produced oil by shuttle tanker and transportation of produced natural gas to the SAGE system using a new14-inch,24-mile 14-inch, 24-mile cross border pipeline. Marathon and its Alvheim project partners signed a purchase and sale agreement in 2004 foracquired the Odin multipurpose shuttle tanker which will beearly in 2005. The vessel is currently being modified to serve as an FPSO.FPSO and has been renamed "Alvheim." In 2004,

In 2006, we submitted a PDO for the Volund field to the Norwegian government, with a recommendation that the field be developed as a subsea tie-back to the Alvheim FPSO. In December 2006, the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy forwarded the PDO to the Norwegian King in Council for approval. Approval was received in early 2007.
Ireland – We own a 100 percent interest in the Kinsale Head, Ballycotton and Southwest Kinsale fields in the Celtic Sea offshore Ireland. Net natural gas sales were 50 mmcfd in 2005, compared with 58 mmcfd in 2004. In February 2006, we acquired an 86.587 percent operated interest in the Seven Heads natural gas field. Previously, we processed and transported natural gas and we provided field operating services to the Seven Heads group through our existing Kinsale Head facilities.
We own an 18.5a 19 percent interest in the outside-operated Corrib natural gas development project, located approximately 40 miles off Ireland’s west coast.Ireland's northwest coast, where five of the seven wells necessary to develop the field have been drilled. During 2004,

An Bord Pleanála (the Planning Board) upheld the Mayo County Council’sCouncil's decision to grant planning approval for the proposed natural gas terminal at Bellanaboy Bridge, County Mayo, which will process natural gas from the Corrib field. Development activities started in late 2004 but were suspended in 2005 pending resolutionto facilitate dialogue and clarification of issues raised by opponents of the project. AIn July 2006, the partners in this project accepted the findings of a government-commissioned independent safety review and the report of an independent mediator regarding the onshore pipeline associated with the proposed development has been completeddevelopment. The onshore pipeline will be re-routed and werouting studies are awaiting publicationunderway. Construction of the related report.
Equatorial Guinea – We own a 63 percent operated interest in the Alba field offshore Equatorial Guinea and a 52 percent interest in an onshore liquefied petroleum gas ("LPG") processing plant held through an equity method investee. During 2005,2006, net liquid hydrocarbon sales averaged 39,600 bpd48 mbpd and net natural gas sales averaged 9268 mmcfd, compared to 18,900 bpd40 mbpd and 7692 mmcfd in 2004.2005. A condensate expansion project in Equatorial Guinea was completed during 2004 and ramped up to full production and a new, larger LPG plant was completed in early 2005. This expansion project increasedNet sales in 2006 averaged 36 mbpd of condensate production from approximately 15,000 gross bpd to approximately 67,000 gross bpd (38,000 bpd net to Marathon). A liquefied petroleum gas (“LPG”and 12 mbpd of LPG.
We own 45 percent of Atlantic Methanol Production Company LLC ("AMPCO") expansion project in Equatorial Guinea ramped up to full production, the results of which are included in the third quarter of 2005. Gross LPG production increased from approximately 3,000Integrated Gas segment. In 2006, we supplied a gross bpd to 19,000 gross bpd (11,000 bpd net to Marathon). Liquid hydrocarbon production continues to increase as a result of the expansion projects. Total production available for sale in January 2006 was approximately 90,000 gross bpd (51,000 bpd net to Marathon).
Libya – We holdNet liquid hydrocarbon sales in Libya averaged 54 mbpd in 2006, of which a 16.33 percent interest intotal of 8 mbpd were owed to our account upon the Waha concessions, which currently produce approximately 350,000 gross boe per day and encompass almost 13 million acres located in the Sirte Basin. As a resultresumption of our return to operations in Libya. The 2006 sales in Libya we expectrepresented 37 percent of our international liquid hydrocarbon sales from continuing operations. We continue to add approximately 40,000work with our partners to 45,000 net bpd of production availabledefine and implement growth plans for sale during 2006.
Gabon – We are the operator of the Tchatamba South, Tchatamba West and Tchatamba Marin fields offshore Gabon with a 56 percent interest. Net sales in Gabon averaged 12,100 bpd10 mbpd of liquid hydrocarbons in 2005,2006, compared with 13,600 bpd12 mbpd in 2004.2005. Production from these three fields is processed on a single offshore facility at Tchatamba Marin, with processed oil being transported through an offshore and onshore pipeline to an outside-operated storage facility.
Russia – During 2003 we acquired Khanty Mansiysk Oil Corporation (“KMOC”). KMOC’swhich operated oil fields are located in the Khanty Mansiysk region of western Siberia. Net liquid hydrocarbon sales from these assets averaged 26,600 bpd during 2005,were primarily from the East Kamennoye and Potenay fields. Development activities continued in 2005, with 82 wells drilled in East Kamennoye.
Other Matters
We hold an interest in an exploration and production license in Sudan. We suspended all operations in Sudan in 1985.1985 due to civil unrest. We have had no employees in the country and have derived no economic benefit from those interests since that time. The U.S. government imposed sanctions against Sudan in 1997 and we have not made any payments related to Sudan since then. We have abided and will continue to abide by all U.S. sanctions related to Sudan and will not consider resuming any activity regarding our interests there until such time as it is permitted under U.S. law.
We discovered the Ash Shaer and Cherrife gas fields in Syria in the 1980s. We submitted four plans of development tohave recognized no revenues in any period from activities in Syria and we impaired our entire investment in Syria in 1998. In July 2006, the Syrian Petroleum Company in the 1990s, but none were approved. The Syrian government subsequently claimed that thenew production sharing contract forawarded by the Syrian government was signed into law. This contract gave us the right to assign all or part of our interest in these fields had expired. We have been involved in an

Proved developed reserves represented 7168 percent of total proved reserves as of December 31, 2005,2006, as compared to 6271 percent as of December 31, 2004.2005. Of the 374405 million boe of proved undeveloped reserves at year-end 2005,2006, less than 2010 percent of the volume is associated with projects that have been included asin proved reserves for more than three years while approximately 1811 percent of the proved undeveloped reserves were added during 2005.
During 2005,2006, we added a total of 146 million boe of net proved reserves, principally in Libya and Equatorial Guinea. We disposed of 28245 million boe, excluding 2 million boe of dispositions, while producing 124 million boe. These net additions included 165 million boe as a result of our re-entry into Libya, 50 million boe of extensions, discoveries and other additions, and total revisions of 58134 million boe. Of the total net proved reserve additions, 21582 million boe were proved developed and 6764 million boe were proved undeveloped. Additionally,undeveloped reserves. During 2006, we transferred 12118 million boe from proved undeveloped to proved developed during 2005.reserves. Costs incurred for the periods ended December 31, 2006, 2005 2004 and 20032004 relating to the development of proved undeveloped oil and natural gas reserves, were $1.010 billion, $955 million and $708 million and $780 million. These amounts include our proportionate share of equity method investees’ costs incurred as these were costs necessary for the development of proved undeveloped reserves. As of December 31, 2005,2006, estimated future development costs relating to the development of proved undeveloped oil and natural gas reserves for the years 20062007 through 20082009 are projected to be $868$466 million, $340$348 million and $175$231 million.

The above estimated quantities of net proved oil and natural gas reserves and estimated future development costs relating to the development of proved undeveloped oil and natural gas reserves and timing of production from development projects are forward-looking statements and are based on a number of assumptions, including (among others) commodity prices, presently known physical data concerning size and character of the reservoirs, economic recoverability, technology developments, future drilling success, industry economic conditions, levels of cash flow from operations, production experience and other operating considerations. To the extent these assumptions prove inaccurate, actual recoveries and development costs could be different than current estimates.
For a discussion of the proved reserve estimation process, see Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Estimates – Estimated Net Recoverable Quantities of Oil and Natural Gas, and for additional details of the estimated quantities of net proved oil and natural gas reserves at the end of each of the last three years, see “FinancialFinancial Statements and Supplementary Data – Supplementary Information on Oil and Gas Producing Activities – Estimated Quantities of Proved Oil and Natural Gas Reserves”Reserves on pages F-46 through F-47. We filed reports with the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”("DOE") for the years 20042005 and 20032004 disclosing the year-end estimated oil and natural gas reserves. We will file a similar report for 2005.2006. The year-end estimates reported to the DOE are the same as the estimates reported in the Supplementary Information on Oil and Gas Producing Activities.
Delivery Commitments
We have committed to deliver fixed and determinable quantities of natural gas to customers under a variety of contractual arrangements.
In Alaska, we have two long-term sales contracts with local utility companies, which obligate us to supply approximately 152124 bcf of natural gas over the remaining lives of these contracts, which terminate in 2012 and 2018. During 2005, we entered into another agreement with a local utility company which, pending Regulatory Commission of Alaska approval, will obligate us to supply approximately 60 bcf of natural gas between 2009 and 2018. In addition, we own a 30 percent interest in a Kenai, Alaska LNG plant and a proportionate share of the long-term LNG sales obligation to two Japanese utility companies. This obligation is estimated to total 6243 bcf through the remaining life of the contract, which terminates in 2009. These commitments are structured with variable-pricing terms. Our production from various natural gas fields in the Cook Inlet supply the natural gas to service these contracts. Our proved reserves in the Cook Inlet are sufficient to meet these contractual obligations.
In the U.K., we have two long-term sales contracts with utility companies, which obligate us to supply approximately 190125 bcf of natural gas through the remaining lives of these contracts, which terminate in 2009. Our Brae area proved reserves, acquired natural gas contracts and estimated production rates are sufficient to meet these contractual obligations. Pricing under these natural gas sales contracts is variable. See Note 1718 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion of these contracts.

Our refineries include crude oil atmospheric and vacuum distillation, fluid catalytic cracking, catalytic reforming, desulfurization and sulfur recovery units. The refineries can process a wide variety of crude oils and produce typical refinery products, including reformulated and low sulfur gasolines.gasolines and ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel. We also produce asphalt cements, polymerized asphalt, asphalt emulsions and industrial asphalts. We manufacture petroleum pitch, primarily used in the graphite electrode, clay target and refractory industries. Additionally, we manufacture aromatics, aliphatic hydrocarbons, cumene, base lube oil, polymer grade propylene, maleic anhydride and slack wax.
Our refineries are integrated via pipelines, terminals and barges to maximize operating efficiency. The transportation links that connect theour refineries allow the movement of intermediate products to optimize operations and the production of higher margin products. For example, naphtha may be moved from Texas City to Robinson where excess reforming capacity is available. By shipping intermediate products between facilities during partial refinery shutdowns, we are able to utilize processing capacity that is not directly affected by the shutdown work.

Ethanol Production
In 2006, mostwe signed a definitive agreement forming a 50/50 joint venture that will construct and operate one or more ethanol production plants. Our partner in the joint venture will provide the day-to-day management of the diesel fuel sold for highway use must contain no more than 15 partsplants, as well as grain procurement, distillers dried grain marketing and ethanol management services. This venture will enable us to maintain the reliability of a portion of our future ethanol supplies. Together with our partner, we selected the venture's initial plant site, Greenville, Ohio, and construction has commenced on a 110 million gallon per million of sulfur at the retail outlet. This new ultra low sulfur diesel (“ULSD”) fuel requirement will place a premium on ensuring that thereyear ethanol facility. The facility is no contamination of the ULSD while it is in transit to the retail outlet. We expectexpected to be able to meet these requirements.
The above discussion of the RM&T segment includes forward-looking statements concerning the possibleplanned expansion of the Garyville refinery.refinery, potential heavy oil refining upgrading projects and a joint venture that would construct and operate ethanol plants. Some factors that could affect the Garyville expansion project and the ethanol plant construction, management and development include the results of the FEED work, necessary regulatorygovernment and third party approvals, crude oil supply and transportation logistics, necessary permits and continued favorable investment climate, availability of materials and labor, unforeseen hazards such as weather conditions and other risks customarily associated with construction projects. The Garyville project may be further affected by crude oil supply. These factors (among others) could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.

Also included in the financial results of the Integrated Gas segment are the costs associated with ongoing development of certain integratedprojects to link stranded natural gas projects.
We own a 30 percent interest in a Kenai, Alaska, natural gas liquefaction plant and two 87,500 cubic meter tankers used to transport LNG to customers in Japan. Feedstock for the plant is supplied from a portion of our natural gas production in the Cook Inlet. From the first production in 1969, the LNG has been sold under a long-term contract with two of Japan’sJapan's largest utility companies. This contract continues through March 2009, with 20052006 LNG deliveries totaling 6561 gross bcf (22(19 net bcf).
Equatorial Guinea LNG Project
In 2004, we and our partner, Compania Nacional de Petroleos de Guinea Ecuatorial (“GEPetrol”), the(the National Oil Company of Equatorial Guinea or "GEPetrol"), through Equatorial Guinea LNG Holdings Limited (“EGHoldings”("EGHoldings"), began construction of ana 3.7 million metric ton per annum ("mmtpa") LNG plantproduction facility on Bioko Island that will initially deliver a contracted offtakeIsland. We expect to begin delivering 3.4 mmtpa, or 460 mmcfd, during the second quarter of 3.4 million metric tons per year beginning in 2007 (approximately 460 mmcfd) under a Sales17-year sales and Purchase Agreement with a subsidiarypurchase agreement. The purchaser under this agreement will take delivery of BG Group plc (“BGML”). BGML will purchase the LNG plant’sfacility's production for a period of 17 years on an FOB Bioko Island basis with pricing linked principally to the Henry Hub index. The LNG plant is ultimately expected to have the ability to operate at higher rates and for a longer period than the current contracted offtake rate and term.index, regardless of destination. This project will allow us to monetize our natural gas reserves from the Alba field, as natural gas for the plantproduction facility will be purchased from the Alba field participants under a long-term natural gas supply agreement. ConstructionWe are currently seeking additional natural gas supplies to allow full utilization of this LNG facility, which is designed to have a higher capacity and a longer life than the plant is ahead of schedule with first shipment of LNG expected in the third quarter of 2007.
In July 25, 2005, Marathon and GEPetrol entered into agreements under which Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (“Mitsui”("Mitsui") and a subsidiary of Marubeni Corporation (“Marubeni”("Marubeni") acquired 8.5 percent and 6.5 percent interests respectively, in EGHoldings. In November 2006, GEPetrol transferred its 25 percent interest to Sociedad Nacional de Gas de Guinea Ecuatorial ("SONAGAS"), which is also controlled by the government of Equatorial Guinea. Following thethese transaction, we hold a 60 percent interest in EGHoldings, with GEPetrolSONAGAS holding a 25 percent interest and Mitsui and Marubeni holding the remaining interests.
In 2006, with our project partners, are also exploring the feasibility of addingwe awarded a FEED contract for initial work related to a potential second LNG trainproduction facility on Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea. The FEED work is expected to be completed during 2007. The scope of the FEED work for the potential 4.4 mmtpa LNG project includes feed gas metering, liquefaction, refrigeration, ethylene storage, boil off gas compression, product transfer to storage and LNG product metering. A final investment decision is expected in an effort to create a regional gas hub that would commercialize stranded natural gas from various sources in the surrounding Gulf of Guinea region.
Elba Island LNG
In April 2004, we began delivering LNG cargoes as part of ourat the Elba Island, Georgia LNG regasification terminal capacity rightspursuant to an LNG sales and purchase agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, we can supplyhave the right to deliver and sell up to 58 billion cubic feetbcf of natural gas (as LNG) per year, into the terminal through March 31, 2021 with a possible extension to November 30, 2023.
In September 2004, we signed an agreement with BP Energy Company (“BP”) under which BPwe will supply usbe supplied with 58 bcf of natural gas per year, as LNG, for a minimum period of five years. The agreement allows for delivery of LNG at the Elba Island LNG regasification terminal with pricing linked to the Henry Hub index. This supply agreement with BP enables us to fully utilize our capacity rights at Elba Island during the period of this agreement, while affording us the flexibility to access this capacity to commercialize other stranded natural gas resources beyond the term of the BPthis contract. The agreement commenced in 2005.

The above discussion of the integrated gas segment contains forward looking statements with respect to the timing and levels of production associated with the LNG plantproduction facility and the possible expansion thereof. Factors that could affect the LNG plantproduction facility include unforeseen problems arising from construction, inability or delay in obtaining necessary government and third-party approvals, unanticipated changes in market demand or supply, environmental issues, availability or constructioncommissioning of sufficient LNG vessels, andthe facilities, unforeseen hazards such as weather conditions.conditions and other operating considerations such as shipping the LNG. In addition to these factors, other factors that could potentially affect the possible expansion of the current LNG projectproduction facility and the development of additional LNG capacity through additional projects include partner approvals, access to sufficient natural gas volumes through exploration or commercial negotiations with other resource owners and access to sufficient regasification capacity. The foregoing factors (among others) could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
Strong competition exists in all sectors of the oil and gas industry and, in particular, in the exploration and development of new reserves. We compete with major integrated and independent oil and gas companies, as well as national oil companies, for the acquisition of oil and natural gas leases and other properties. We compete with these companies, as well as national oil companies for the equipment and labor required to develop and operate those properties and in the marketing of oil and natural gas to end-users. Many of our competitors have financial and other resources greater than those available to us. As a consequence, we may be at a competitive disadvantage in bidding for the rights to explore for oil and natural gas. Acquiring the more attractive exploration opportunities frequently requires competitive bids involving front-end bonus payments orcommitments-to-work commitments-to-work programs. We also compete in attracting and retaining personnel, including geologists, geophysicists and other specialists. Based on industry sources, we believe we currently rank ninth amongU.S.-based petroleum companies on the basis of 2005 worldwide liquid hydrocarbon and natural gas production.
We must also compete with a large number of other companies to acquire crude oil for refinery processing and in the distribution and marketing of a full array of petroleum products. We rank fifth among U.S. petroleum companies on the basis of U.S. crude oil refining capacity as of December 31, 2005.2006. We compete in four distinct markets – wholesale, spot, branded and retail distribution – for the sale of refined products. We believe we compete with about 3040 companies in the wholesale distribution of petroleum products to private brand marketers and large commercial and industrial consumers; about 7570 companies in the sale of petroleum products in the spot market; nine refiner/marketers in the supply of branded petroleum products to dealers and jobbers; and approximately 220260 petroleum product retailers in the retail sale of petroleum products. We compete in the convenience store industry through SSA’sSSA's retail outlets. The retail outlets offer consumers gasoline, diesel fuel (at selected locations) and a broad mix of other merchandise and services. Some locations also have on-premises brand-name restaurants such as SubwaytmSubway™. We also compete in the travel center industry through our 50 percent ownership in PTC.
Our operating results are affected by price changes in crude oil, natural gas and petroleum products, as well as changes in competitive conditions in the markets we serve. Generally, results from production operations benefit from higher crude oil and natural gas prices while the refining and wholesale marketing marginsgross margin may be adversely affected by crude oil price increases. Price differentials between sweet and sour crude oil also affect operating results. Market conditions in the oil and gas industry are cyclical and subject to global economic and political events and new and changing governmental regulations.
On December 31, 2001, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of July 31, 2001, Marathon completed the Separation, in which:
17
In connection with the Separation and pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, Marathon and United States Steel have entered into a series of agreements governing their relationship after the Separation and providing for the allocation of tax and certain other liabilities and obligations arising from periods before the Separation. The following is a description of the material terms of two of those agreements.
Under the financial matters agreement, United States Steel has assumed and agreed to discharge all Marathon’sof Marathon's principal repayment, interest payment and other obligations under the following, including any amounts due on any default or acceleration of any of those obligations, other than any default caused by Marathon:
The financial matters agreement also provides that, on or before the tenth anniversary of the Separation, United States Steel will provide for Marathon’sMarathon's discharge from any remaining liability under any of the assumed industrial revenue bonds. United States Steel may accomplish that discharge by refinancing or, to the extent not refinanced, paying Marathon an amount equal to the remaining principal amount of all accrued and unpaid debt service outstanding on, and any premium required to immediately retire, the then outstanding industrial revenue bonds.
Under the financial matters agreement, United States Steel shall have the right to exercisehas all of the existing contractual rights under the lease obligationsleases assumed from Marathon, including all rights related to purchase options, prepayments or the grant or release of security interests. However, United States Steel shall havehas no right to increase amounts due under or lengthen the term of any of the assumed lease obligations without the prior consent of Marathon other than extensions set forth in the terms of the assumed lease obligations.
The financial matters agreement also requires United States Steel to use commercially reasonable efforts to have Marathon released from its obligations under a guarantee Marathon provided with respect to all of United States Steel’sSteel's obligations under a partnership agreement between United States Steel, as general partner, and General Electric Credit Corporation of Delaware and Southern Energy Clairton, LLC, as limited partners. United States Steel may dissolve the partnership under certain circumstances, including if it is required to fund accumulated cash shortfalls of the partnership in excess of $150 million. In addition to the normal commitments of a general partner, United States Steel has indemnified the limited partners for certain income tax exposures.
The financial matters agreement requires Marathon to use commercially reasonable efforts to take all necessary action or refrain from acting so as to assure compliance with all covenants and other obligations under the documents relating to the assumed obligations to avoid the occurrence of a default or the acceleration of the payment obligations underpayments on the assumed obligations. The agreement also obligates Marathon to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain letters of credit and other liquidity arrangements required under the assumed obligations.
United States Steel’sSteel's obligations to Marathon under the financial matters agreement are general unsecured obligations that rank equal to United States Steel’sSteel's accounts payable and other general unsecured obligations. The financial matters agreement does not contain any financial covenants and United States Steel is free to incur additional debt, grant mortgages on or security interests in its property and sell or transfer assets without our consent.
18
Marathon and United States Steel have a tax sharing agreement that applies to each of their consolidated tax reporting groups. Provisions of this agreement include the following:
19
See “Management’s"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Obligations Associated with the Separation of United States Steel”Steel" for a discussion of Marathon’sour obligations associated with the Separation.
The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of our Board of Directors.Directors is responsible for overseeing our position on public issues identified by management, including environmental matters. Our Corporate Responsibility organization has the responsibility to ensure that our operating organizations maintain environmental compliance systems that are in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The Corporate Responsibility Management Committee, which isCommittees comprised of certain of our officers is charged with reviewingreview our overall performance with various environmental compliance programs. We also have a Crisis Management Team, composed primarily of senior management, which oversees the response to any major emergency, environmental or other incident involving Marathon or any of our properties.
Legislation and regulations pertaining to climate change and greenhouse gas emissions have the potential to impact us. The Kyoto Protocol, effective in 2005, has been ratified by countries in which we have or in the future may have operations. Other climate change legislation and regulations both in the United States and abroad are in various stages of development. Although there may be financial impact (including compliance costs) associated with any legislation or regulation, the extent and magnitude of impact cannot be reliably or accurately estimated due to the present uncertainty of these measures. As part of our commitment to environmental stewardship, we estimate and publicly report greenhouse gas emissions from our operations. We are working to continuously improve the accuracy and completeness of these estimates. In addition, we continuously strive to improve operational and energy efficiencies through resource and energy conservation where practicable and cost effective.
Our businesses are subject to numerous laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. These environmental laws and regulations include the Clean Air Act (“CAA”("CAA") with respect to air emissions, the Clean Water Act (“CWA”("CWA") with respect to water discharges, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”("RCRA") with respect to solid and hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”("CERCLA") with respect to releases and remediation of hazardous substances and the Oil Pollution Act of 1990(“OPA-90” ("OPA-90") with respect to oil pollution and response. In addition, many states where we operate have similar laws dealing with the same matters. New laws are being enacted and regulations are being adopted by various regulatory agencies on a continuing basis, and the costs of compliance with these new rules can only be broadly appraised until their implementation becomes more accurately defined. In some cases, they can impose liability for the entire cost of cleanup on any responsible party without regard to negligence or fault and impose liability on us for the conduct of others or conditions others have caused, or for our acts that complied with all applicable requirements when we performed them. The ultimate impact of complying with existing laws and regulations is not always clearly known or determinable because certain implementing regulations for some environmental laws have not yet been finalized or, in some instances, are undergoing revision. These environmental laws and regulations, particularly the 1990 Amendments to the CAA and its implementing regulations, new water quality standards and stricter fuel regulations, could result in increased capital, operating and compliance costs.
For a discussion of environmental capital expenditures and costs of compliance for air, water, solid waste and remediation, see “Management’s"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Environmental Matters, Litigation and Contingencies”Contingencies" and “Legal"Legal Proceedings.”
Air
Of particular significance to our refining operations arewere U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”)EPA regulations that requirerequired reduced sulfur levels starting in 2004 for gasoline and 2006 for diesel fuel. Our combined capital costs to achieveWe achieved compliance with these rules are expectedregulations and began production of ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel for on-road use prior to approximate $900the June 1, 2006 deadline. The cost of achieving compliance with these regulations was approximately $850 million. Marathon will also be spending approximately $250 million from 2006 through 2010 to produce ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel for off-road use. Further, Marathon estimates that it will spend approximately $400 million over thea four-year period between 2002 and 2006, which includes costs that could be incurred as part of other refinery upgrade projects. Costs incurred through December 31, 2005 were approximately $825 million,beginning in 2008 to comply with the remainder expectedMobile Source Air Toxics II regulations relating to be incurred in 2006.benzene. This is a forward-looking statement. Some factors (among others) that could potentially affect gasoline and diesel fuel compliance costs include completionpreliminary estimate as the Mobile Source Air Toxics II regulations should be finalized in the first half of construction andstart-up activities.
The EPA has finalized new and revised National Ambient Air Quality Standards (“NAAQS”("NAAQS") for fine particulate emissions (PM2.5) and ozone. In connection with these new standards, the EPA will designate certain areas as “nonattainment,”"nonattainment," meaning that the air quality in such areas does not meet the NAAQS. To address these nonattainment areas, in January 2004, the EPA proposed a rule called the Interstate Air Quality Rule (“IAQR”("IAQR") that would require significant reductions of SO2SO2 and NOx emissions in numerous states. The final rule was promulgated on May 12, 2005, and the rule was renamed the Clean Air Interstate Rule (“CAIR”("CAIR"). While the EPA expects that states will meet their CAIR obligations by requiring emissions reductions from Electric Generating Units (“EGUs”("EGUs"), states will have the final say on what sources they regulate to meet attainment criteria. Our refinery operations are located in affected states and some states may choose to propose more stringent fuels requirements to meet the CAIR
20
requirements; however we cannot reasonably estimate the final financial impact of the state actions to implement the CAIR until the states have taken further action.
20
We maintain numerous discharge permits as required under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System program of the CWA and have implemented systems to oversee our compliance efforts. In addition, we are regulated under OPA-90, which amended the CWA. Among other requirements, OPA-90 requires the owner or operator of a tank vessel or a facility to maintain an emergency plan to respond to releases of oil or hazardous substances. Also, in case of such releases OPA-90 requires responsible companies to pay resulting removal costs and damages, provides for civil penalties and imposes criminal sanctions for violations of its provisions.
Additionally, OPA-90 requires that new tank vessels entering or operating in U.S. waters be double hulled and that existing tank vessels that are not double-hulled be retrofitted or removed from U.S. service, according to a phase-out schedule. As of December 31, 2005, allAll of the barges used for river transport of our feedstocksraw materials and refined products meet the double-hulled requirements of OPA-90.
Solid Waste
We continue to seek methods to minimize the generation of hazardous wastes in our operations. RCRA establishes standards for the management of solid and hazardous wastes. Besides affecting waste disposal practices, RCRA also addresses the environmental effects of certain past waste disposal operations, the recycling of wastes and the regulation of underground storage tanks (“USTs”("USTs") containing regulated substances. We have ongoing RCRA treatment and disposal operations at someone of our RM&T facilities and primarily utilize offsite third-party treatment and disposal facilities. Ongoing RCRA-related costs are not expected to be material.
Remediation
We own or operate certain retail outlets where, during the normal course of operations, releases of petroleum products from USTs have occurred. Federal and state laws require that contamination caused by such releases at these sites be assessed and remediated to meet applicable standards. The enforcement of the UST regulations under RCRA has been delegated to the states, which administer their own UST programs. Our obligation to remediate such contamination varies, depending on the extent of the releases and the stringency of the laws and regulations of the states in which we operate. A portion of these remediation costs may be recoverable from the appropriate state UST reimbursement funds once the applicable deductibles have been satisfied. AccrualsWe also have other facilities which are subject to remediation under federal or state law. See Legal Proceedings – Environmental Proceedings – Other Proceedings for remediation expenses and associated reimbursements are established for sites where contamination has been determined to exist and the amounta discussion of associated costs is reasonably determinable.
We had 27,75628,195 active employees as of December 31, 2005.2006. Of that number, 18,25719,132 were employees of Speedway SuperAmerica LLC,SSA, most of whichwhom were employed at our retail marketing outlets.
Certain hourly employees at our Catlettsburg and Canton refineries are represented by the United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers Union under labor agreements that expire on January 31, 2009. The same union represents certain hourly employees at our Texas City refinery under a labor agreement that expires on March 31, 2009. The International Brotherhood of Teamsters represents certain hourly employees under labor agreements that are scheduled to expire on May 31, 20062009 at our St. Paul Park refinery and January 31, 20072010 at our Detroit refinery.

Marathon is subject to various risks and uncertainties in the course of its business. The following summarizes some, but not all, of the risks and uncertainties that may adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
A substantial or extended decline in oil or natural gas prices, as well as refined product gross margins, would reduce our revenues, operating results and cash flows and could adversely impact our future rate of growth.
Prices for oil and natural gas and refined product gross margins fluctuate widely. Our revenues, operating results and future rate of growth are highly dependent on the prices we receive for our oil, natural gas and refined products. Historically, the markets for oil, natural gas and refined products have been volatile and may continue to be volatile in the future. Many of the factors influencing prices of oil, natural gas and refined products are beyond our control. These factors include:
The long-term effects of these and other conditionsfactors on the prices of oil and natural gas, as well as on refined product gross margins, are uncertain.
Lower oil and natural gas prices, as well as lower refined product gross margins, may reduce the amount of oil and natural gasthese commodities that we produce, which may reduce our revenues, operating income and operating income.cash flows. Significant reductions in oil and natural gas prices or refined product gross margins could require us to reduce our capital expenditures.
Estimates of oil and natural gas reserves depend on many factors and assumptions, including various assumptions that are based on conditions in existence as of the dates of the estimates. Any material changes in those conditions or other factors affecting those assumptions could impair the quantity and value of our oil and natural gas reserves.
The proved oil and natural gas reservereserves information related to Marathon included in this Reportreport has been derived from engineering estimates. Those estimates were prepared by our personnelin-house teams of reservoir engineers and geoscience professionals and reviewed, on a selected basis, by our Corporate Reserves Group and/or third-party petroleum engineers.consultants we have retained. The estimates were calculated using oil and natural gas prices in effect as of December 31, 2005,2006, as well as other conditions in existence as of that date. Any significant future price changes maywill have a material effect on the quantity and present value of our proved reserves. Future reserve revisions could also result from changes in, among other things, governmental regulation and severance and other production taxes.
Reserve estimation is a subjective process that involves estimating volumes to be recovered from underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be directly measured. Estimates of economically recoverable oil and natural gas reserves and of future net cash flows depend upon a number of variable factors and assumptions, including:
22
As a result, different petroleum engineers, each using industry-accepted geologic and engineering practices and scientific methods, may produce different estimates of reserves and future net cash flows based on the same available data. Because of the subjective nature of oil and natural gas reserve estimates, each of the following items may differ materially from the amounts or other factors estimated:
The discounted future net revenues from our proved reserves includedreflected in this Reportreport should not be considered as the market value of the reserves attributable to our properties. As required by generally accepted accounting principles,SEC Rule 4-10 of Regulation S-X, the estimated discounted future net revenues from our proved reserves are based generally on prices and costs as of the date of the estimate, while actual future prices and costs may be materially higher or lower.
In addition, the 10 percent discount factor that is required by the applicable rules of the SEC to be used to calculate discounted future net revenues for reporting purposes under generally accepted accounting principles is not necessarily the most appropriate discount factor based on theour cost of capital in effect from time to time and the risks associated with our business and the oil and natural gas industry in general.
22
The rate of production from oil and natural gas properties generally declines as reserves are depleted. Except to the extent we acquire interests in additional properties containing proved reserves, conduct successful exploration and development activities or, through engineering studies, optimize production performance, identify additional behind-pipe zonesreservoirs not currently producing or secondary recovery reserves, our proved reserves will decline materially as oil and natural gas is produced.
Increases in crude oil prices and environmental regulations may reduce our refined product gross margins.
The profitability of our refining, marketing and transportation operations depends largely on the margin between the cost of crude oil and other feedstocks that we refine and the selling prices we obtain for refined products. We are a net purchaser of crude oil. A significant portion of our crude oil is purchased from various foreign national oil companies, producing companies and trading companies, including suppliers from the Middle East. These purchases are subject to political, geographic and economic risks attendant to doing business with suppliers located in that area of the world. Our overall RM&T profitability could be adversely affected by the availability of supply and rising crude oil and other feedstock prices which we do not recover in the marketplace. Refined product gross margins historically have been historically volatile and vary with the level of economic activity in the various marketing areas, the regulatory climate, logistical capabilities and the available supply of refined products.
In addition, environmental regulations, particularly the 1990 amendments to the Clean Air Act, have imposed, and are expected to continue to impose, increasingly stringent and costly requirements on our refining, marketing and marketingtransportation operations, which may reduce our refined product gross margins.
If we do not compete successfully with our competitors, our future operating performance and profitability could materially decline.
We compete with major integrated and independent oil and natural gas companies, as well as national oil companies, for the acquisition of oil and natural gas leases and other properties. We compete with these companies, as well as national oil companies for the equipment and labor required to develop and operate those properties and in the marketing of oil and natural gas to end-users. In addition, in implementing our integrated gas strategy, we compete with major integrated energy companies in
23
bidding for and developing liquefied natural gas projects, which are very capital intensive. Many of our competitors have financial and other resources substantially greater than those available to us. As a consequence, we may be at a competitive disadvantage in acquiring additional properties and bidding for and developing additional projects, such as LNG plants.production facilities. Many of our larger competitors in the LNG market can complete more projects than we have the capacity to complete, which could lead those competitors to realize economies of scale that we are unable to realize. In addition, many of our larger competitors may be better able to respond to factors that affect the demand for oil and natural gas, such as changes in worldwide prices and levels of production, the cost and availability of alternative fuels and the application of government regulations.
We will continue to incur substantial capital expenditures and operating costs as a result of compliance with, and changes in environmental laws and regulations, and, as a result, our profitability could be materially reduced.
Our businesses are subject to numerous laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. We have incurred and will continue to incur substantial capital, operating and maintenance, and remediation expenditures as a result of these laws and regulations. To the extent these expenditures, as with all costs, are not ultimately reflected in the prices of our products and services, our operating results will be adversely affected. The specific impact of these laws and regulations on each ofus and our competitors may vary depending on a number of factors, including the age and location of their operating facilities, marketing areaareas and production processes. We may also be required to make material expenditures to modify operations, install pollution control equipment, perform site cleanups or curtail operations. We may become subject to liabilities that we currently do not anticipate in connection with new, amended or more stringent requirements, stricter interpretations of existing requirements or the future discovery of contamination. In addition, any failure by us to comply with existing or future laws could result in civil or criminal fines and other enforcement actionactions against us.
Our operations and those of our predecessors could expose us to civil claims by third parties for alleged liability resulting from contamination of the environment or personal injuries caused by releases of hazardous substances.
Environmental laws are subject to frequent change and many of them have become more stringent. In some cases, they can impose liability for the entire cost of cleanup on any responsible party, without regard to negligence or fault, and impose liability on us for the conduct of others or conditions others have caused, or for our acts that complied with all applicable requirements when we performed them.
23
Local political and economic factors in international markets could have a material adverse effect on us. Approximately 5056 percent of our oil and natural gas production in 20052006 was derived from production outside the United States and approximately 7072 percent of our proved reserves as of December 31, 20052006, were located outside the United States. In addition, we are increasing the focus of our development operations on areas outside the United States.
There are many risks associated with operations in international markets, including changes in foreign governmental policies relating to crude oil, natural gas or refined product pricing and taxation, other political, economic or diplomatic developments and international monetary fluctuations. These risks include:
Continued hostilities in the Middle East and the occurrence or threat of future terrorist attacks could cause a downturn inadversely affect the economies of the United States and other developed countries. A lower level of economic activity could result in a decline in energy consumption, which could cause our revenues and margins to decline and limit our future growth prospects. More specifically, theseThese risks could lead to increased volatility in prices for crude oil, natural gas and refined products. In addition, these risks could increase instability in the financial and insurance markets and make it more difficult for us to access capital and to obtain the insurance coveragescoverage that we consider adequate.
Actions of the United StatesU.S. government through tax and other legislation, executive order and commercial restrictions could reduce our operating profitability both in the United States and overseas.abroad. The United StatesU.S. government can prevent or restrict us from doing business in foreign countries. These restrictions and those of foreign governments have in the
24
past limited our ability to operate in, or gain access to, opportunities in various countries. Actions by both the United States and host governments have affected operations significantly in the past and will continue to do so in the future.
Our operations are subject to business interruptions and casualty losses, and we do not insure against all potential losses and, therefore, we could be seriously harmed by unexpected liabilities.
Our exploration and production operations are subject to unplanned occurrences, including blowouts, explosions, fires, loss of well control, spills, hurricanes and other adverse weather, labor disputes and maritime accidents. In addition, our refining, marketing and transportation operations are subject to business interruptions due to scheduled refinery turnarounds and unplanned events such as explosions, fires, pipeline ruptures or other interruptions, crude oil or refined product spills, inclement weather orand labor disputes. TheyOur operations are also subject to the additional hazards of pollution, releases of toxic gas and other environmental hazards and risks, as well as hazards of marine operations, such as capsizing, collision and damage or loss from severe weather conditions. These hazards could result in loss of human life, significant damage to property and equipment, environmental pollution, impairment of operations and substantial losses to us. Certain hazards have adversely affected us in the past, and litigation arising from a catastrophic occurrence in the future involving us or any of our assets or operations may result in our being named as a defendant in one or more lawsuits asserting potentially large claims or being assessed potentially substantial fines by governmental authorities.
We maintain insurance against many, but not all, potential losses or liabilities arising from these operating hazards in amounts that we believe to be prudent. Uninsured losses and liabilities arising from operating hazards could reduce the funds available to us for exploration, drilling and production and could materially reduce our profitability.
If Ashland fails to pay its taxes, we could be responsible for satisfying various tax obligations of Ashland.
As a result of the transactions in which we acquired the minority interest in MPC from Ashland in 2005, Marathon is severally liable for federal income taxes (and in some cases for certain state taxes) of Ashland for tax years of Ashland still open as of the date we completed the transactions. We have entered into a tax matters agreement with Ashland, which provides that:
If Ashland fails to pay any tax obligation for which we are severally liable, we may be required to satisfy this tax obligation. That would leave us in the position of having to seek indemnification from Ashland. In that event, our
24
Marathon is required to pay Ashland for deductions relating to various contingent liabilities of Ashland, which could be material.
We are required to claim tax deductions for certain contingent liabilities that will be paid by Ashland after completion of the transactions. Under the tax matters agreement, we are required to pay the benefit of those deductions to Ashland, with the computation and payment terms for such tax benefit payments divided into two “baskets,”"baskets," as described below:
Basket One –This applies to the first $30 million of contingent liability deductions (increased by inflation each year up to a maximum of $60 million) that we may claim in each year for the first 20 years following the acquisition. The benefit of Basket One deductions is determined by multiplying the amount of the deduction by 32% (or, if different, by a percentage equal to three percentage points less than the highest federal income tax rate during the applicable tax year). We are obligated to pay this amount to Ashland. The computation and payment of Basket One amounts does not depend on our ability to generate actual tax savings from the use of the contingent liability deductions in Basket One. Upon specified events related to Ashland (or after 20 years), the contingent liability deductions that would
25
otherwise have been compensated under Basket One will be taken into account in Basket Two. In addition, Basket One applies only for Federalfederal income tax purposes; state, local or foreign tax benefits attributable to specified liability deductions will be compensated only under Basket Two.
Because we are required to make payments to Ashland whether or not we generate any actual tax savings from the Basket One contingent liability deductions, the amount of our tax benefit payments to Ashland with respect to Basket One contingent liability deductions may exceed the aggregate tax benefits that we derive from these deductions. We are obligated to make these payments to Ashland even if we do not have sufficient taxable income to realize any benefit for the deductions.
Basket Two –All contingent liability deductions relating to Ashland’sAshland's pre-transactions operations that are not subject to Basket One are considered and compensated under Basket Two. The benefit of Basket Two deductions is determined on a “with"with and without”without" basis; that is, the contingent liability deductions are treated as the last deductions used by the Marathon group. Thus, if the Marathon group has deductions, tax credits or other tax benefits of its own, it will be deemed to use them to the maximum extent possible before it will be deemed to use the contingent liability deductions. To the extent that we have the capacity to use the contingent liability deductions based on this methodology, the actual amount of tax saved by the Marathon group through the use of the contingent liability deductions will be calculated and paid to Ashland. Because Basket Two amounts are calculated based on the actual tax saved by the Marathon group from the use of Basket Two deductions, those amounts are subject to recalculation in the event there is a change in the Marathon group’sgroup's tax liability for a particular year. This could occur because of audit adjustments or carrybacks of losses or credits from other years, for example. To the extent that such a recalculation results in a smaller Basket Two benefit with respect to a contingent liability deduction for which Ashland has already received compensation, Ashland is required to repay such compensation to Marathon. In the event we become entitled to any repayment, we would be subject to collection risks associated with collecting an unsecured claim from Ashland.
If the transactions resulting in our acquisition of the minority interest in MPC that was previously owned by Ashland were found to constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance, we could be required to provide additional consideration to Ashland or to return a portion of the interest in MPC, and either of those results could have a material adverse effect on us.
In a bankruptcy case or lawsuit initiated by one or more creditors or a representative of creditors of Ashland, a court may review our recently completed2005 transactions with Ashland under the fraudulent transfer provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer or conveyance laws. Under those laws, the transactions would be deemed fraudulent if the court determined that the transactions were undertaken for the purpose of hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors or that the transactions were constructively fraudulent. If the transactions were found to be a fraudulent transfer or conveyance, we might be required to provide additional consideration to Ashland or to return all or a portion of the interest in MPC and the other assets we acquired from Ashland.
Under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and the laws of most states, a transaction could be held to be constructively fraudulent if a court determined that:
25
26
valuation of any business and a determination of the solvency of any entity involve numerous assumptions and uncertainties, and it is possible that a court could disagree with our conclusions.
If United States Steel fails to perform any of its material obligations to which we have financial exposure, we could be required to pay those obligations, and any such payment could materially reduce our cash flows and profitability and impair our financial condition.
In connection with the separation of United States Steel from Marathon, United States Steel agreed to hold Marathon harmless from and against various liabilities. While we cannot estimate some of these liabilities, the portion of these liabilities that we can estimate amounts to $597$564 million as of December 31, 2005,2006, including accrued interest of $9$11 million. If United States Steel fails to satisfy any of those obligations, we would be required to satisfy them and seek indemnification from United States Steel. In that event, our indemnification claims against United States Steel would constitute general unsecured claims, effectively subordinate to the claims of secured creditors of United States Steel.
Under applicable law and regulations, we also may be liable for any defaults by United States Steel in the performance of its obligations to pay federal income taxes, fund its ERISA pension plans and pay other obligations related to periods prior to the effective date of the separation.
United States Steel hasSteel's senior unsecured debt is rated non-investment grade by two major credit ratings and has granted security interests in some of its assets.rating agencies. The steel business is highly competitive and a large number of industry participants have sought protection under bankruptcy laws in the past. The enforceability of our claims against United States Steel could become subject to the effect of any bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance or transfer or other law affecting creditors’creditors' rights generally, or of general principles of equity, which might become applicable to those claims or other claims arising from the facts and circumstances in which the separation was effected.
If the transfer of ownership of various assets and operations by Marathon’sMarathon's former parent entity to Marathon was held to be a fraudulent conveyance or transfer, United States Steel’sSteel's creditors may be able to obtain recovery from us or other relief detrimental to the holders of our common stock.
In July 2001, USX Corporation (“("Old USX”USX") effected a reorganization of the ownership of its businesses in which it created Marathon as its publicly owned parent holding company and transferred ownership of various assets and operations to Marathon, and it merged into a newly formed subsidiary which survived as United States Steel.
If a court in a bankruptcy case regarding United States Steel or a lawsuit brought by its creditors or their representative were to find that, under the applicable fraudulent conveyance or transfer law:
26
We may issue preferred stock whose terms could dilute the voting power or reduce the value of our common stock.
Our restated certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue, without the approval of our stockholders, one or more classes or series of preferred stock having such preferences, powers and relative, participating, optional and other rights, including preferences over our common stock respecting dividends and distributions, as our boardBoard of directorsDirectors generally may determine. The terms of one or more classes or series of preferred stock could dilute the voting power or reduce the value of our common stock. For example, we could grant holders of preferred stock the right to elect some number of our directors in all events or on the happening of specified events or the right to veto specified transactions. Similarly, the repurchase or redemption rights or liquidation preferences we could assign to holders of preferred stock could affect the residual value of the common stock.
As of the date of this filing, we have no unresolved comments from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The location and general character of the principal oil and gas properties, refineries, and gas plants, pipeline systems and other important physical properties of Marathon have been described previously. Except for oil and gas producing properties, which generally are leased, or as otherwise stated, such properties are held in fee. The plants and facilities have been constructed or acquired over a period of years and vary in age and operating efficiency. At the date of acquisition of important properties, titles were examined and opinions of counsel obtained, but no title examination has been made specifically for the purpose of this document. The properties classified as owned in fee generally have been held for many years without any material unfavorably adjudicated claim.
The basis for estimating oil and gas reserves is set forth in “Financial"Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Supplementary Information on Oil and Gas Producing Activities – Estimated Quantities of Proved Oil and Gas Reserves”Reserves" on pages F-46 through F-47.

Marathon is the subject of, or a party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. Certain of these matters are included below. The ultimate resolution of these contingencies could, individually or in the aggregate, be material. However, management believeswe believe that Marathon will remain a viable and competitive enterprise even though it is possible that these contingencies could be resolved unfavorably.
As of December 31, 2005, Marathon washad been served in two qui tam cases, which allege that federal and Indian lessees violated the False Claims Act with respect to the reporting and payment of royalties on natural gas and natural gas liquids. The first case, U.S. ex rel Jack J. Grynberg v. Alaska Pipeline Co., et al is primarily a gas measurement case and the second case, U.S. ex rel Harrold E. Wright v. Agip Petroleum Co. et al, is primarily a gas valuation case. These cases assert that false claims have been filed by lessees and that penalties, damages and interest total more than $25 billion. The Department of Justice has announced that it would intervene or has reserved judgment on whether to intervene against specified oil and gas companies and also announced that it would not intervene against certain other defendants including Marathon. In the Grynberg case, the parties have briefed and argued their motions
27
In October 2006, Marathon was served with an additional qui tam case, filed in the Western District of Oklahoma, which alleges that Marathon violated the False Claims Act by failing to pay the government past due interest resulting from royalty adjustments for crude oil, natural gas and other hydrocarbon production. The case is styled United States of America ex rel. Randy L. Little and Lanis G. Morris v. ENI Petroleum Co., et al. This case asserts that Marathon and other defendants are liable for past due interest, penalties, punitive damages and attorneys fees. Other than the specific allegation of underpayment for the month of May 2003 in the amount of $1,360, the parties in interest (Randy L. Little and Lanis G. Morris) have plead general damages with no other specific amounts against Marathon. Marathon intends to continue to vigorously defend these cases.
The U.S. Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”("BLM") completed multi-year reviews of potential environmental impacts from coal bed methane development on federal lands in the Powder River Basin, including those in Wyoming. The BLM signed a Record of Decision (“ROD”("ROD") on April 30, 2003 supporting increased coal bed methane development. Plaintiff environmental and other groups filed suit in May 2003 in federal court against the BLM to stop coal bed methane development on federal lands in the Powder River Basin until the BLM conducted additional environmental impact studies. Marathon intervened as a party in the ongoing litigation before the Wyoming Federal District Court.
28
As these lawsuits to delay energy development in the Powder River Basin progress through the courts, the Wyoming BLM continues to process permits to drill under the ROD.
In May 2004, plaintiff environmental groups Environmental Defense et al filed suit against the U.S. BLM in Montana Federal District Court, alleging the agency did not adequately consider air quality impacts of coal bed methane and oil and gas operations in the Powder River Basin in Montana and Wyoming when preparing its environmental impact statements. Plaintiffs request that the BLM be ordered to cease issuing leases and permits for energy development, until additional analysis of predicted air impacts is conducted. Marathon and its subsidiary Pennaco Energy, Inc. intervened in this litigation.
Marathon is a defendant along with many other refining companies in over 40 cases in 11 states alleging methyl tertiary-butyl ether (“MTBE”("MTBE") contamination in groundwater. All of these cases have been consolidated in a multi-district litigation in the Southern District of New York for preliminary proceedings. The judge in this multi-district litigation ruled on April 20, 2005 that some form of market share liability would apply. Market share liability enables a plaintiff to sue manufacturers who represent a substantial share of a market for a particular product and shift the burden of identification of who actually made the product to the defendants, effectively forcing a defendant to show that it did not produce the MTBE which allegedly caused the damage. The judge further allowed cases to go forward in New York and 11 other states, based upon varying theories of collective liability, and predicted that a new theory of market share liability would be recognized in Connecticut, Indiana and Kansas. The plaintiffs generally are water providers or governmental authorities and they allege that refiners, manufacturers and sellers of gasoline containing MTBE are liable for manufacturing a defective product and that the owners and operators of retail gasoline sites have allowed MTBE to be discharged into the groundwater. Several of these lawsuits allege contamination that is outside of Marathon’sMarathon's marketing area. A few of the cases seek approval as class actions. Many of the cases seek punitive damages or treble damages under a variety of statutes and theories. Marathon stopped producing MTBE at its refineries in October 2002. The potential impact of these recent cases and future potential similar cases is uncertain. The Company will defend these cases vigorously.
A lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia and alleges that Marathon’sMarathon's Catlettsburg refinery sold defective gasoline to wholesalers and retailers, causing permanent damage to storage tanks, dispensers and related equipment, resulting in lost profits, business disruption and
28
U.S. EPA Litigation
In 2002, Marathon and American Petroleum Institute ("API") brought a petition before the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, challenging the U.S. EPA's 2002 promulgation of new Oil Spill Prevention, Countermeasures and Control regulations on several grounds; while the dispute has been settled, the one remaining count is over the U.S. EPA's regulatory definition of waters covered by the Clean Water Act. Marathon and API contend that the U.S. EPA's regulations run contrary to recent decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court which, in finding federal agencies had gone greatly beyond the intentions of Congress as to what waters were covered by the Clean Water Act, narrowed the universe of what waters the federal government, rather than state governments, had jurisdiction to regulate.
In September 2006, Marathon and other oil and gas companies joined the State of Wyoming in filing a Petition for Review against the U.S. EPA in the U.S. District Court for the District of Wyoming. These actions seek a Court order mandating the EPA to disapprove Montana's 2006 amended water quality standards, on grounds that the standards lack sound scientific justification, they are arbitrary and capricious, and were adopted contrary to law. These September 2006 actions have been consolidated with our pending April 2006 action against the U.S. EPA in the same Court. The water quality amendments at issue, if approved, could require more stringent discharge limits and have the potential to require certain Wyoming coal bed methane operations to perform more costly water treatment or inject produced water. Approval of these standards could delay or prevent obtaining permits needed to discharge produced water to streams flowing from Wyoming into Montana. The Court has stayed this case, and another filed in April 2006, until August 2007 while the U.S. EPA mediates the matter between Montana, Wyoming and the Northern Cheyenne tribe.
29
Montana Litigation
In June 2006, Marathon filed a complaint for declaratory judgment in Montana State District Court against the Montana Board of Environmental Review ("MBER") and the Montana Department of Environmental Quality, seeking to set aside and declare invalid certain regulations of the MBER that single out the coal bed natural gas industry and a few streams in eastern Montana for excessively severe and unjustified restrictions for surface water discharges of produced water from coal bed methane operations. None of the streams affected by the regulations suffers impairment from coal bed natural gas discharges.
Wyoming Proceedings
The Wyoming Environmental Quality Council ("EQC"), which oversees the State Department of Environmental Quality ("DEQ"), has before it an administrative petition filed by the Powder River Basis Resource Council in 2006 seeking new water quality sulfate and barium standards for coal bed methane produced water and a requirement that all such water be beneficially reused. The petition seeks to expand the authority of DEQ to regulate the quantity of water discharges. It would narrow the definition of required "beneficial use" discharges and would impose stricter effluent standards for discharged water. The EQC is also considering adoption of a rule which would impose more stringent water quality limits as to produced water discharges that come from any new coal bed methane or conventional oil and gas operations. DEQ made this proposal citing a statutory directive that all waters that are suitable for agriculture may not be degraded. Marathon contends that its waters as currently regulated are beneficial to crops and livestock, rather than being a potential threat. The EQC would have to decide how stringent a water quality standard for new discharges it would adopt.
Other Proceedings
The following is a summary of proceedings involving Marathon that were pending or contemplated as of December 31, 20052006 under federal and state environmental laws. Except as described herein, it is not possible to predict accurately the ultimate outcome of these matters; however, management’smanagement's belief set forth in the first paragraph under “Item"Item 3. Legal Proceedings”Proceedings" above takes such matters into account.
Claims under CERCLA and related state acts have been raised with respect to the cleanup of various waste disposal and other sites. CERCLA is intended to facilitate the cleanup of hazardous substances without regard to fault. Potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”("PRPs") for each site include present and former owners and operators of, transporters to and generators of the substances at the site. Liability is strict and can be joint and several. Because of various factors including the difficulty of identifying the responsible parties for any particular site, the complexity of determining the relative liability among them, the uncertainty as to the most desirable remediation techniques and the amount of damages and cleanup costs and the time period during which such costs may be incurred, Marathon is unable to reasonably estimate its ultimate cost of compliance with CERCLA.
The projections of spending for and/or timing of completion of specific projects provided in the following paragraphs are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions including, but not limited to, the factors provided in the preceding paragraph. To the extent that these assumptions prove to be inaccurate, future spending for or timing of completion of environmental projects may differ materially from those stated in the forward-looking statements.
As of December 31, 2005,2006, Marathon had been identified as a PRP at a total of sevennine CERCLA waste sites. Based on currently available information, which is in many cases preliminary and incomplete, Marathon believes that its liability for cleanup and remediation costs in connection with six of these sites will be under $1 million per site and most will be(with three of these six sites being under $100,000.$100,000 each). As to the remaining three sites of the nine, Marathon believes that its liability for cleanup and remediation costs in connection with the one remaining sitetwo of these sites will be under $3 million.
In addition, there is one site whereare three sites for which Marathon has received information requests or other indications that it may be a PRP under CERCLA, but wherefor which sufficient information is not presently available to confirm the existence of liability.
There are also 123 additional119 sites, excluding retail marketing outlets, related to Marathon where remediation is being sought under other environmental statutes, both federal and state, or where private parties are seeking remediation through discussions or litigation. Based on currently available information, which is in many cases preliminary and incomplete, Marathon believes that its liability for cleanup and remediation costs in connection with 2927 of these sites will be under $100,000 per site, 51that 45 sites have potential costs between $100,000 and $1 million per site and 18 that 19
30
sites may involve remediation costs between $1 million and $5 million per site. NineEleven sites have incurred remediation costs of more than $5 million per site and there are 1617 sites with insufficient information to estimate future remediation costs.
There is one site that involves a remediation program in cooperation with the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (“MDEQ”("MDEQ") at a closed and dismantled refinery site located near Muskegon, Michigan. During the next five30 years, Marathon anticipates spending approximately $5$7 million at this site. AppropriateIn 2007, interim remediation measures will occur and appropriate site characterization and risk-based assessments necessary for closure will be refined during 2006 and may change the estimated future expenditures for this site. The closure strategy being developed for this site and ongoing work at the site are subject to approval by the MDEQ. Expenditures in 2006 and 2005 were approximately$488,000 and $540,000, with expenditures in 20062007 expected to be $1approximately $2 million.
MPC has had a pending enforcement matter with the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency and the Illinois Attorney General’sGeneral's Office since 2002 concerning its self-reporting of possible emission exceedences and permitting issues related to storage tanks at itsthe Robinson, Illinois refinery.
In 2005, MPC anticipates more discussionsreceived a Notice of Violation from the U.S. EPA alleging 33 violations of Clean Air Act fuels requirements. The alleged violations largely resulted from MPC's attest engagements submitted to the Agency under the Reformulated Gasoline and Anti Dumping programs. In 2006, MPC reached an administrative settlement with Illinois officials in 2006.
MPC received an enforcement action from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency ("MPCA") in 2005 by entering an administrative order with WVDEPthe fourth quarter of 2006 where nothe MPCA seeks a civil penalty was imposed but MPC agreedof $121,800 for a release of catalyst from the fluid catalytic cracking unit at the St. Paul Park refinery in 2004 and other alleged violations. Discussions will be held with the MPCA in 2007 and the Company expects to pay $95,297 as an administrative settlement, a contribution toresolve the State Department of Natural Resources for park remediation efforts unrelated to this matter and a reimbursement of WVDEP’s costs.

By letter dated July 15, 2004, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”("SEC") notified Marathon that it was conducting an inquiry into payments made to the government of Equatorial Guinea, or to officials and persons affiliated with officials of the government of Equatorial Guinea. This inquiry followed an investigation and public hearing conducted by the United States Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, which reviewed the transactions of various foreign governments, including that of Equatorial Guinea, with Riggs Bank. The investigation and hearing also reviewed the operations of U.S. oil companies, including Marathon, in Equatorial Guinea. There was no finding in the Subcommittee’sSubcommittee's report that Marathon violated the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or any other applicable laws or regulations. Marathon has been voluntarily producingproduced documents requested by the SEC in that inquiry.

Marathon is engaged in worldwide exploration, production and productionmarketing of crude oil and natural gas; domestic refining, marketing and transportation of crude oil and petroleum products, primarily in the Midwest, the upper Great Plains and southeastern United States; and worldwide marketing and transportation of natural gas and products manufactured from natural gas, such as LNG and methanol. Management’smethanol, and development of other projects to link stranded natural gas resources with key demand areas. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with Item 1. Business, Item 1A. Risk Factors, Item 6. Selected Financial Data and Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
Certain sections of Management’sManagement's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include forward-looking statements concerning trends or events potentially affecting our business. These statements typically contain words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “targets,” “plans,” “projects,” “could,” “may,” “should,” “would”"anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "targets," "plans," "projects," "could," "may," "should," "would" or similar words indicating that future outcomes are uncertain. In accordance with ”safe harbor”"safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, these statements are accompanied by cautionary language identifying important factors, though not necessarily all such factors, which could cause future outcomes to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
Unless specifically noted, amounts for MPCthe refining, marketing and transportation segment include the 38 percent interest in MPC held by Ashland prior to the Acquisition on June 30, 2005, and amounts for EGHoldingsthe integrated gas segment include the 25 percent interest held by GEPetrol,SONAGAS (previously held by GEPetrol) in all periods and the 8.5 percent interest held by Mitsui and the 6.5 percent interest held by Marubeni subsequent tosince July 25, 2005.
Effective January 1, 2006, we revised our measure of segment income to include the effects of minority interests and income taxes related to the segments. In addition, the results of activities primarily associated with the marketing of our equity natural gas production, which had been presented as part of the Integrated Gas segment prior to 2006, are now included in the Exploration and Production segment. Segment results for all periods presented reflect these changes.
Exploration and Production
Exploration and production segment revenues correlate closely with prevailing prices for the various qualities of crude oil and natural gas produced.we produce. The increase in our E&P segment revenues during 2005in 2006 is primarily related to increased production, particularly from Libya where the first liquid hydrocarbon sales occurred in the first quarter of 2006; however, our 2006 revenues also tracked the increasechanges in market prices for these commodities. Higher prices for crude oil during 2005early in 2006 reflected concerns about international supply due to unrest in oil-producing countries and the potential for hurricane damage in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. As hurricane season came to an end without a major storm in the Gulf of Mexico and in the absence of significant international supply shortfalls or disruptions, crude oil prices declined. The average spot price during 20052006 for West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”("WTI"), a benchmark crude oil, was $56.70$66.25 per barrel, up from an average of $41.47$56.70 in 2004,2005, and ended the year at $61.04.$61.05. The average differential between WTI and Brent (an international benchmark crude oil) narrowed to $1.07 in 2006 from $2.18 in 2005 from $3.20 in 2004.2005. Our domestic crude oil production is on average heavier and higher in sulfur content than light sweet WTI. Heavier and higher sulfur crude oil (commonly referred to as heavy sour crude)crude oil) sells at a discount to light sweet crude oil. The majority of OPEC spare capacity and new production worldwide is medium sour or heavy sour, so the discount for medium and heavy sour crudes has increased relative to light sweetOur international crude and thus reduced the relative profitability of sour crude production. Outside of Russia, our international crudeoil production is relatively sweet and is generally sold in relation to the Brent crude benchmark.
Natural gas prices were also higherlower in 20052006 compared to 2004.2005. A significant portion of our United States lower 48 natural gas production is sold at bid-week prices orfirst-of-month first-of-month indices relative to our specific producing areas. The average Henry Hub first-of-month price index was $1.41 per mcf lower in 2006 than the 2005 average. Our natural gas prices in Alaska are largely contractual, while natural gas productionsales there isare seasonal in nature, trending down during the second and third quarters of each year and increasing during the fourth and first quarters. Our other major natural gas-producing regions are Europe and Equatorial Guinea, where large portions of our natural gas are sold at contractual prices, making realized prices in these areas less volatile.

E&P segment income during 20052006 was up approximately 766 percent from 20042005 levels, impacted by higher product prices as discussed above and increased liquid hydrocarbon sales volumes. We estimate that our 2006volumes, primarily due to the resumption of production available for sale will average approximately 365,000 to 395,000 boe per day, excludingin Libya, and the impact of acquisitionshigher liquid
33
hydrocarbon prices discussed above, partially offset by higher income taxes, primarily in Libya, operating costs and dispositions. This includes an estimated 40,000 to 45,000 boe per day as a result of our return to operationsexploration expenses and decreases in the Waha concessions in Libya. With the developments we have under construction, we estimate our production will grow to 475,000 to 525,000 boe per day by 2008, excluding acquisitions and divestitures.
31
RM&T segment income depends largely on our refining and wholesale marketing gross margin, refinery throughputs, retail marketing gross margins for gasoline, distillates and merchandise, and the profitability of our pipeline transportation operations.
The refining and wholesale marketing gross margin is the difference between the wholesale prices of refined products sold and the costcosts of crude oil and other feedstockscharge and blendstocks refined, the costcosts of purchased products and manufacturing costs.expenses, including depreciation. We purchase crude oil to satisfy our refineries’refineries' throughput requirements. As a result, our refining and wholesale marketing gross margin could be adversely affected by rising crude oil and other feedstockcharge and blendstock prices that are not recovered in the marketplace. The crack spread, which is generally a measure of the difference between spot market gasoline and distillate prices and spot market crude oil costs, is ana commonly used industry indicator of refining margins. In addition to changes in the crack spread, our refining and wholesale marketing gross margin is impacted by the types of crude oil and other charge and blendstocks we process, the wholesale selling prices we realize for all the refined products we sell, the cost of purchased product and our level of manufacturing costs. We process significant amounts of sour crude oil which enhances our competitive position in the industry as sour crude oil typically can be purchased at a discount to sweet crude oil. Over the last three years, approximately 60 percent of the crude oil throughput at our refineries has been sour crude oil. As one of the largest U.S. producerproducers of asphalt, our refining and wholesale marketing gross margin is significantlyalso impacted by the selling price of asphalt. Sales of asphalt increase during the highway construction season in our market area, which is typically in the second and third quarters.quarters of each year. The selling price of asphalt is dependent on the cost of crude oil, the price of alternative paving materials and the level of construction activity in both the private and public sectors. We supplement our refining production by purchasing gasolines and distillates in the spot market to resell at wholesale. In addition, we purchase ethanol for blending with gasoline. Our refining and wholesale marketing gross margin is impacted by the cost of these purchased products, which varies with available supply and demand. Finally, our refining and wholesale marketing gross margin is impacted by changes in manufacturing costs from period to period, which are primarily driven by the level of maintenance activities at the refineries and the price of purchased natural gas.gas used for plant fuel. Our refining and wholesale marketing gross margin has been historically volatile and varies with the level of economic activity in our various marketing areas, the regulatory climate, logistical capabilities and the expectations regarding the adequacy of the supply of refined productsproduct, ethanol and raw materials.
Together with our June 30, 2005 acquisition of the 38 percent minority interest in MPC, our improved refining and wholesale marketing gross margin in 2006 was the key driver of the 72 percent increase in RM&T segment income over 2005. The average refining and wholesale marketing gross margin increased to 22.88 cents per gallon in 2006 from 15.82 cents per gallon in 2005.
For information on commodity price risk management, see “Item"Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.”
Our seven refineries have an aggregate refining capacity of 974 mbpd of crude oil. During 2006, our refineries processed 980 mbpd of crude oil and 234 mbpd of other charge and blend stocks for a crude oil capacity utilization rate of 101 percent.
Our retail marketing gross margin for gasoline and distillates, which is the difference between the ultimate price paid by consumers and the wholesale cost of the refined products, including secondary transportation and consumer excise taxes, also plays an important part in RM&T segment profitability. Factors affecting our retail gasoline and distillate gross margin include competition, seasonal demand fluctuations, the available wholesale supply, the level of economic activity in our marketing areas and weather situations that impact driving conditions. Gross margins on merchandise sold at retail outlets tend to be less volatile than the gross marginmargins from the retail sale of gasoline and diesel fuel.distillates. Factors affecting the gross margin on retail merchandise sales include consumer demand for merchandise items, the impact of competition and the level of economic activity in our marketing areas.
The profitability of our pipeline transportation operations is primarily dependent on the volumes shipped through the pipelines. The volume of crude oil that we transport is directly affected by the supply of, and refiner demand for, crude oil in the markets served directly by our crude oil pipelines. Key factors in this supply and demand balance are the production levels of crude oil by producers, the availability and cost of alternative modes of transportation, and refinery and transportation system maintenance levels. The throughputvolume of the refined products that we transport is directly affected by the production levels of, and user demand for, refined products in the markets served
34
by our refined product pipelines. In most of our markets, demand for gasoline peaks during the summer driving season, which extends from May through September of each year, and declines during the fall and winter months. The seasonal pattern for distillates is the reverse of this, helping to level overall variability on an annual basis. As with crude oil, other transportation alternatives and system maintenance levels influence refined product movements.
Integrated Gas
Our long-term integrated gas strategy is to link stranded natural gas resources with areas where a supply gap is emerging due to declining production and growing demand. LNG, particularly in regard to our operations in Equatorial Guinea, is a key component of thatthis integrated gas strategy. Our integrated gas operations include

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the respective reporting periods. Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.
Certain accounting estimates are considered to be critical if (1) the nature of the estimates and assumptions is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change; and (2) the impact of the estimates and assumptions on financial condition or operating performance is material.
Estimated Net Recoverable Quantities of Oil and Natural Gas
We use the successful efforts method of accounting for our oil and gas producing activities. The successful efforts method inherently relies on the estimation of proved oil and natural gas reserves, both developed and undeveloped. The existence and the estimated amount of proved reserves affect, among other things, whether certain costs are capitalized or expensed, the amount and timing of costs depreciated, depleted or amortized into net income and the presentation of supplemental information on oil and gas producing activities. Both the expected
33
Proved reserves are the estimated quantities of oil and natural gas that geologic and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Estimates of proved reserves may change, either positively or negatively, as additional information becomes available and as contractual, economic and political conditions change. During 2005,2006, net revisions of previous estimates increased total proved reserves by 5883 million boe (five(6 percent of thebeginning-of-the-year beginning-of-the-year reserves estimate). Positive revisions of 8298 million boe were partially offset by 2415 million boe in negative revisions.
Our estimation of net recoverable quantities of oil and natural gas is a highly technical process performed by in-house teams of reservoir engineers and geoscience professionals. All estimates prepared by these teams are made in compliance with SEC Rule 4-10(a)(2),(3) and (4) of Regulation S-X and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 25, "Suspension of Certain Accounting Requirements for Oil and Gas Producing Companies (an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 19)," and disclosed in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 69, "Disclosures about Oil and Gas Producing Activities (an Amendment of FASB Statements 19, 25, 33 and 39)." All reserve estimates are reviewed and approved by members of our Corporate Reserves Group. Any revisions ofchange to proved reserves estimates in excess of 2.5 million boe on a total-field basis, within a single month, must be approved by the Director of Corporate Reserves, who reports to our Chief Financial Officer. The Corporate Reserves Group audits recent acquisitionsmay also perform separate, detailed technical reviews of materialreserve estimates for significant fields andthat were acquired recently or for properties with problematic indicators such as excessively long lives, sudden changes in performance or changes in economic or operating conditions. In addition, third-party
Third-party consultants are engaged to auditprepare independent reserve estimates with the stated objective of reviewing the topfor fields that make up 80 percent of our reserves over a three-yearrolling four-year period. Third-party auditsAt December 31, 2006 we had met this goal. For 2006, Marathon established a tolerance level of 10 percent for third-party reserve estimates such that the third-party consultants discontinue their estimation activities once their results are within 10 percent of Marathon's internal estimates. Should the third-party consultants' initial analysis fail to reach our tolerance level, the consultants re-examine the information provided, request additional data and refine their analysis if appropriate. If, after this re-examination, the third-party consultants cannot arrive at estimates within our tolerance, we would adjust our reserve estimates as necessary. This independent third-party reserve estimation process did not result in any significant changes to our reserve estimates duringin 2006, 2005 2004 and 2003.
The reserves of the Alba field offshorein Equatorial Guinea comprise approximately 3940 percent of our total proved oil and natural gas reserves as of December 31, 2005. The reserves of the Waha concession in Libya that were acquired at the end of 2005 comprise approximately 13 percent of our total proved oil and natural gas reserves at that date.2006. The next five largest oil and gas producing asset groups – the Waha concessions in Libya, the Alvheim development offshore Norway, the Brae Area Complexarea complex offshore the United Kingdom, (“U.K.”), the Kenai field in Alaska and the Petronius developmentOregon Basin field in the GulfRocky Mountain area of Mexico and the East Kamennoye license in RussiaUnited States – comprise a total of approximately 1530 percent of our total proved oil and natural gas reserves.
36
Depreciation and depletion of producing oil and natural gas properties is determined by theunits-of-production units-of-production method and could change with revisions to estimated proved developed reserves. The change in the depreciation and depletion rate over the past three years due to revisions of previous reserve estimates has not been significant. A five percent increase in the amount of oil and natural gas reserves would change the depreciation and depletion rate from $6.04$6.92 per barrel to $5.75$6.59 per barrel, which would increase pretax income by approximately $36$45 million annually, based on 20052006 production. A five percent decrease in the amount of oil and natural gas reserves would change the depreciation and depletion rate from $6.04$6.92 per barrel to $6.36$7.28 per barrel and would result in a decrease in pretax income of approximately $40$50 million annually, based on 20052006 production.
Fair Value Estimates
We are required to develop estimates of fair value to allocate the purchase prices paid to acquire businesses to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in those acquisitions, to assess impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill and goodwillintangible assets and to record non-exchange traded derivative instruments. Other items which require estimates of fair value estimates include asset retirement obligations, guarantee obligations and stock-based compensation.
Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price paid to acquire a business is allocated to its assets and liabilities based on the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. The most difficult estimations of individual fair values are those involving property, plant and equipment and identifiable intangible assets. We use all available information to make these fair value determinations and, for certain acquisitions, engage third-party consultants for assistance. During 2005, we made two significant acquisitions with an aggregate purchase price of $3.153$3.156 billion that was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. See Note 56 to the consolidated financial statements for information on these acquisitions. We did not make any significant acquisitions in 2006. As of December 31, 2005, we have2006, our recorded goodwill of $1.307was $1.398 billion. Such goodwill is not amortized, but rather is tested for impairment annually, and when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit with goodwill has been reduced below its carrying value.
The fair values used to allocate the purchase pricesprice of acquisitionsan acquisition and to test goodwill for impairment are often estimated using the expected present value of future cash flows method, which requires us to project related future revenues and expenses and apply an appropriate discount rate. The estimates used in determining fair values are based on assumptions believed to be reasonable but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Accordingly, actual results may differ from the projected results used to determine fair value.
34
Estimating the expected future cash flows from our oil and gas producing asset groups requires assumptions about matters such as future oil and natural gas prices, estimated recoverable quantities of oil and natural gas, expected field performance and the political environment in the host country. An impairment of any of our large oil and gas producing properties could have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
We evaluate our unproved property investment for impairment based on time or geologic factors in addition to the use of an undiscounted future net cash flow approach. Information such as drilling results, reservoir performance, seismic interpretation or future plans to develop acreage are also considered. The expected future cash flows from our RM&T assets require assumptions about matters such as future refined product prices, future crude oil and other feedstock costs, estimated remaining lives of the assets and future expenditures necessary to maintain the assets’assets' existing service potential.
During 2006, we recorded impairments of $25 million, including $20 million related to the Camden Hills field in the Gulf of Mexico and the associated Canyon Express pipeline. Natural gas production from the Camden Hills field ended during 2006 as a result of increased water production from the well. We did not have significant impairment charges during 2005 or 2003.2005. During 2004, we recorded an impairment of $32 million related to unproved properties and $12 million related to producing properties primarily as a result of unsuccessful developmental drilling activity in Russia.
37
We record all derivative instruments at fair value. We have two long-term contracts for the sale of natural gas in the U.K. whichUnited Kingdom that are accounted for as derivative instruments. These contracts expire in September 2009. These contracts were entered into in the early 1990s in support of our investments in the East Brae field and the SAGE pipeline. Contract prices are linked to a basket of energy and other indices. The contract price is reset annually in October based on the previous twelve-month changes in the basket of indices. Consequently, the prices under these contracts do not track forward natural gas prices. The fair value of these contracts is determined by applying the difference between the contract price and the U.K. forward natural gas strip price to the expected sales volumes under these contracts for the next eighteen months under these contracts.18 months. Adjustments to the fair value of these contracts result in non-cash charges or credits to income from operations. The difference between the contract price and the U.K. forward natural gas strip price may fluctuate widely from time to time and may significantly affect income from operations. TheIn 2006, the non-cash lossesgains related to changes in fair value recognized in income from operations were $454 million. Non-cash losses of $386 million and $99 million were recognized in 2005 $99 million in 2004, and $66 million in 2003.2004. These effects are primarily due to the U.K.18-month forward natural gas price curve strengtheningweakening 44 percent in 2006, while it strengthened 90 percent 36 percent and 2636 percent during 2005 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Expected Future Taxable Income
We must estimate our expected future taxable income to assess the realizability of our deferred income tax assets. As of December 31, 2005,2006, we reported net deferred tax assets of $1.782$1.865 billion, which represented gross assets of $2.409$2.554 billion net of valuation allowances of $627$689 million.
Numerous assumptions are inherent in the estimation of future taxable income, including assumptions about matters that are dependent on future events, such as future operating conditions (particularly as related to prevailing oil and natural gas prices) and future financial conditions. The estimates and assumptions used in determining future taxable income are consistent with those used in our internal budgets, forecasts and strategic plans.
In determining our overall estimated future taxable income for purposes of assessing the need for additional valuation allowances, we consider proved and risk-adjusted probable and possible reserves related to our existing producing properties, as well as estimated quantities of oil and natural gas related to undeveloped discoveries if, in our judgment, it is likely that development plans will be approved in the foreseeable future. In assessing the propriety of releasing an existing valuation allowance, we consider the preponderance of evidence concerning the realization of the impaired deferred tax asset.
Additionally, we must consider any prudent and feasible tax planning strategies that might minimize the amount of deferred tax liabilities recognized or the amount of any valuation allowance recognized against deferred tax assets, if we can implement these strategies and if we expect to implement these strategies in the event the forecasted conditions actually occurred. The principal tax planning strategy available to us relates to the permanent reinvestment of the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries. Assumptions related to the permanent reinvestment of the earnings of our foreign subsidiaries are reconsidered quarterly to give effect to changes in our portfolio of producing properties and in our tax profile.

Accounting for pension and other postretirement benefit obligations involves numerous assumptions, the most significant of which relate to the following:
We develop our demographics and utilize the work of third-party actuaries to assist in the measurement of these obligations. We have selected different discount rates for our funded U.S. pension plans and our unfunded U.S. retiree health plans due to the different projected liability durations of nine9 years and 13 years. In determining the assumed discount rates, our methods include a review of market yields on high-quality corporate debt and use of our third-party actuary’sactuary's discount rate modeling tool. This tool applies a yield curve to the projected benefit plan cash flows using a hypothetical Aa yield curve. The yield curve represents a series of annualized individual discount rates from 1.5 to 30 years. The bonds used are rated Aa or higher by a recognized rating agency and only non-callable bonds are included. Each issue is required to have at least $150 million par value outstanding. The top quartile bonds are selected within each maturity group to construct the yield curve.
38
The asset rate of return assumption considers the asset mix of the plans (currently targeted at approximately 75 percent equity securities and 25 percent debt securities for the funded U.S. pension plans), past performance and other factors. Certain components of the asset mix are modeled with various assumptions regarding inflation, debt returns and stock yields. Our assumptions are compared to those of peer companies and to historical returns for reasonableness.
Compensation increase assumptions are based on historical experience, anticipated future management actions and demographics of the benefit plans.
Health care cost trend assumptions are developed based on historical cost data, the near-term outlook and an assessment of likely long-term trends.
Note 2324 to the consolidated financial statements includes detailed information forabout the three years ended December 31, 2005, onassumptions used to calculate the components of our defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefitplan expense for 2006, 2005 and 2004, as well as the underlying assumptions.
Of the assumptions used to measure the December 31, 20052006 obligations and estimated 20062007 net periodic benefit cost, the discount rate has the most significant effect on the periodic benefit costscost reported for the plans. A ..250.25 percent decrease in the discount rates of 5.505.80 percent for our domesticU.S. pension planplans and 5.755.90 percent for our domesticother U.S. postretirement benefit plans would increase pension obligations and other postretirement benefit plan obligations by $93 million and $28 million and would increase defined benefit pension expense and other postretirement benefit plan expense by approximately $13 million and $3 million, respectively.
In 2006, we made certain plan design changes which included an update of the mortality table used in the plans' definition of actuarial equivalence and lump sum calculations and a 20 percent retiree cost of living adjustment for annuitants. This change increased our benefit obligations by $117 million. In 2005, we decreased our retirement age assumption by two years and also increased our lump sum election rate from 90 percent to 96 percent based on changing trends in our experience. This change increased our benefit obligations by approximately $109 million.
Contingent Liabilities
We accrue contingent liabilities for income and other tax deficiencies, environmental remediation, product liability claims and litigation claims when such contingencies are probable and estimable. Actual costs can differ from estimates for many reasons. For instance, the costs from settlement of claims and litigation can vary from estimates based on differing interpretations of laws, opinions on responsibility and assessments of the amount of damages. Similarly, liabilities for environmental remediation may vary because of changes in laws, regulations and their interpretation; the determination of additional information on the extent and nature of site contamination; and improvements in technology. Our in-house legal counsel regularly assesses these contingent liabilities. In certain circumstances, outside legal counsel is utilized.
A liability is recorded for these types of contingencies if we determine the loss to be both probable and estimable. We generally record these losses as “Costcost of revenues”revenues or “Selling,selling, general and administrative expenses”expenses in the consolidated statements of income, except for tax contingencies, which are recorded as “Other taxes”other taxes or “Provisionprovision for income taxes.” For additional information on contingent liabilities, see “Management’s"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Environmental Matters, Litigation and Contingencies.”
An estimate as toof the sensitivity to earningsnet income if other assumptions had been used in recording these liabilities is not practical because of the number of contingencies that must be assessed, the number of underlying assumptions

Change in Accounting for Matching Buy/Sell Transactions
Matching buy/sell transactions arise from arrangements in which we agree to buy a specified quantity and quality of crude oil or refined product to be delivered to a specified location while simultaneously agreeing to sell a specified quantity and quality of the same commodity at a specified location to the same counterparty. Prior to April 1, 2006, all matching buy/sell transactions were recorded as separate sale and purchase transactions, or on a "gross" basis. Effective for contracts entered into or modified on or after April 1, 2006, the income effects of matching buy/sell
39
transactions are reported in cost of revenues, or on a "net" basis. Transactions under contracts entered into before April 1, 2006 will continue to be reported on a "gross" basis.
Each purchase and sale transaction has the characteristics of a separate legal transaction, including separate invoicing and cash settlement. Accordingly, we believed that we were required to account for these transactions separately. An accounting interpretation clarified the circumstances under which a matching buy/sell transaction should be viewed as a single transaction involving the exchange of inventory. For a further description of the accounting requirements and how they apply to matching buy/sell transactions, see Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.
This accounting change had no effect on net income but the amounts of revenues and cost of revenues recognized after April 1, 2006 are less than the amounts that would have been recognized under previous accounting practices.
Additionally, this accounting change impacts the comparability of certain operating statistics, most notably "refining and wholesale marketing gross margin per gallon." While this change does not have an effect on the refining and wholesale marketing gross margin (the numerator for calculating this statistic), sales volumes (the denominator for calculating this statistic) recognized after April 1, 2006 are less than the amount that would have been recognized under previous accounting practices because volumes related to matching buy/sell transactions under contracts entered into or modified on or after April 1, 2006 have been excluded. Accordingly, the resulting refining and wholesale marketing gross margin per gallon statistic will be higher than that same statistic calculated from amounts determined under previous accounting practices. The effect of this change on the refining and wholesale marketing gross margin per gallon for 2006 was not significant.

E&P segment revenues increased $1.001 billion in 2006 from 2005 and $1.597 billion in 2005 from 2004. The 2006 increase was primarily in international revenues due to higher realized liquid hydrocarbon prices and sales volumes as illustrated in the table below. The largest liquid hydrocarbon sales volume increase was in Libya, where the first crude oil sales occurred in the first quarter of 2006 and where sales volumes averaged 54 mbpd in 2006, including a total of 8 mbpd that were owed to our account upon the resumption of our operations there. Revenues from domestic operations were flat from year to year. An 8 percent decrease in domestic net natural gas sales volumes, primarily as the result of the Camden Hills field in the Gulf of Mexico ceasing production in early 2006, almost completely offset the benefit of higher liquid hydrocarbon prices in 2006.
The 2005 increase in E&P segment revenues increased by $1.490 billion in 2005 fromover 2004 and by $119 million in 2004 from 2003. The 2005 increase was primarily due tothe result of higher worldwide liquid hydrocarbon and natural gas prices and international liquid hydrocarbon sales volumes partially offset by lower domestic natural gas and liquid hydrocarbon sales volumes. Derivativevolumes as illustrated in the table below. The decline in domestic
40
volumes in 2005 resulted primarily from weather-related downtime in the Gulf of Mexico and natural declines in field production rates.

E&P segment revenues totaled $5included derivative gains of $25 million and $7 million in 2006 and 2005, $169and derivative losses of $152 million in 2004 and $110 million in 2003.2004. Excluded from E&P segment revenues were gains of $454 million in 2006 and losses of $386 million in 2005,and $99 million in 20042005 and $66 million in 20032004 related to long-term natural gas sales contracts in the U.K.United Kingdom that are accounted for as derivative instruments. See “Item"Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk”Risk" on page 53. Matching buy/sell transactions decreased by $44 million in 2005 from 2004 and by $55 million in 2004 from 2003. The 2005 and 2004 decreases were primarily due to decreased crude oil buy/sell volumes, partially offset by higher domestic liquid hydrocarbon prices.
RM&T segment revenues decreased by $62 million in 2006 from 2005 and increased by $12.373 billion in 2005 from 20042004. The portion of RM&T revenues reported for matching buy/sell transactions decreased $7.072 billion and by $9.116increased $3.438 billion in 2004the same periods. The decrease in revenues from 2003.matching buy/sell transactions in 2006 was a result of the change in accounting for these transactions effective April 1, 2006, discussed above. Excluding matching buy/sell transactions, 2006 revenues increased primarily as a result of higher refined product prices and
41
sales volumes. The 2005 increase primarily reflected higher refined product and crude oil prices and increased refined product sales volumes, partially offset by decreased crude oil sales volumes. The 2004 increase primarily reflected higher refined product and crude oil prices and increased refined product and crude oil sales volumes. Matching buy/sell transactions increased by $3.438 billion in 2005 from 2004 and by $2.114 billion in 2004 from 2003. The 2005 and 2004 increases were primarily due to increased crude oil prices and volumes and higher refined product prices and volumes.
For additional information on segment results see the discussion on income from operations on page 39.
Income from equity method investmentsincreased by $96$126 million in 2006 from 2005 and increased by $98 million in 2005 from 2004 and by $141 million2004. Income from our LPG operations in 2004 from 2003.Equatorial Guinea increased in both periods due to higher sales volumes as a result of the plant expansions completed in 2005. The increase in 2005 is primarily due toalso included higher PTC income from Alba Plant, LLC as a result of higher LPG and condensate production volume and higher income from PTC as a result of higher distillate gross margins. The increase in 2004 resulted from a $124 million loss on the dissolution of MKM Partners L.P. recorded in 2003. Results for 2004 also include increased earnings of other equity method investments, primarily AMPCO.
Cost of revenuesincreased by $7.107$4.609 billion in 2006 from 2005 and $7.106 billion in 2005 from 2004 and by $5.840 billion in 2004 from 2003. The2004. In both periods the increases arewere primarily in the RM&T segment and resulted from an increaseincreases in acquisition costs forof crude oil, an increase in the cost of refined product purchases, an increase in the cost of other refinery charge and blend stocks and purchased refined products. The increase in both periods was also impacted by higher manufacturing expenses, primarily the result of higher contract services and labor costs in 2006 and higher purchased energy and depreciation.
Purchases related to matching buy/sell transactions decreased $6.968 billion in 2006 from 2005 and increased by $3.314 billion in 2005 from 2004, and $1.837 billion in 2004 from 2003, primarilymostly in the RM&T segment. The increasesdecrease in 2006 was primarily related to the change in accounting for matching buy/sell transactions discussed above. The increase in 2005 was primarily due to increased crude oil prices.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased $215 million in 2006 from 2005 and $125 million in 2005 from 2004. RM&T segment depreciation expense increased in both years are primarily dueas a result of the increase in asset value recorded for our acquisition of the 38 percent interest in MPC on June 30, 2005. In addition, the Detroit refinery expansion completed in the fourth quarter of 2005 contributed to
37
Selling, general and administrative expensesincreased by $133$73 million in 2006 from 2005 and $134 million in 2005 from 20042004. The 2006 increase was primarily because personnel and by $105 millionstaffing costs increased throughout the year primarily as a result of variable compensation arrangements and increased business activity. Partially offsetting these increases were reductions in 2004 from 2003.stock-based compensation expense. The increase in 2005 was primarily a result of increased stock-based compensation expense, due to the increase in theour stock price during thethat year as well as an increase in equity-based awards. Thisawards, which was partially offset by a decrease in expense as a result of severance and pension plan curtailment charges andstart-up costs related to EGHoldings in 2004. The increase
Exploration expenses increased $148 million in 2004 was primarily due to increased stock-based compensation2006 from 2005 and higher costs associated with business transformation and outsourcing. Our 2004 results were also impacted by thestart-up costs discussed above and the increased cost of complying with governmental regulations.
Net interest and other financialfinancing costs (income) reflected a net $37 million of income for 2006, a favorable change of $183 million from the net $146 million expense in 2005. Net interest and other financing costs decreased by $16 million in 2005 from 20042004. The favorable changes in 2006 included increased interest income due to higher interest rates and by $25 million in 2004 from 2003.average cash balances, foreign currency exchange gains, adjustments to interest on tax issues and greater capitalized interest. The decrease in expense for 2005 iswas primarily a result of increased interest income on higher average cash balances and greater capitalized interest, partially offset by increased interest on potential tax deficiencies and higher foreign exchange losses. The decrease in 2004 is primarily due to an increase in interest income on higher cash balances. Included in net interest and other financing costs (income) are foreign currency gains of $16 million, losses of $17 million and gains of $9 million for 2006, 2005 and $13 million for 2005, 2004 and 2003.
Minority interest in income of MPCdecreased by $148 million in 2005 from 2004 due to theour acquisition of Ashland’sthe 38 percent interest in MPC on June 30, 2005.
Provision for income taxesincreased by $1.003$2.308 billion in 2006 from 2005 and $979 million in 2005 from 2004, and by $143 million in 2004 from 2003, primarily due to $2.797the $4.259 billion and $388 million$2.691 billion increases in income from continuing operations before income taxes.

Discontinued operationsin 2004 for all periods reflects the operations of our former Russian oil exploration and 2003 primarily relates to our E&P operations in western Canada,production businesses which were sold in 2003June 2006. An after-tax gain on the disposal of $243 million is included in discontinued operations for a gain of $278 million, including a tax benefit of $8 million.2006. See Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information. Also included in 2003 results2004 is an $8a $4 million adjustment to a tax liability due to United States Steel Corporation.
Cumulative effect of changeschange in accounting principlesprinciplein 2005 was an unfavorable effect of $19 million, net of taxes of $12 million, representing the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (“FIN”("FIN") No. 47, “Accounting"Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143,”" as of December 31, 2005.
Segment Results
Effective January 1, 2006, we revised our measure of segment income to include the effects of minority interests and income taxes related to the segments. In addition, the results of activities primarily associated with the marketing of our equity natural gas production, which had been presented as part of the integrated gas segment prior to 2006, are now included in the exploration and production segment. Segment results for all periods presented reflect these changes.
As discussed in Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements, we sold our Russian oil exploration and production businesses during 2006. The cumulative effectactivities of a change in accounting principle in 2003 was a favorable effect of $4 million, net of taxes of $4 million, representing the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 143, “Accountingthese operations have been reported as discontinued operations and therefore are excluded from segment results for Asset Retirement Obligations.”

U.S. E&P income increased by $491$309 million in 2005 from 2004 following2004. This was the result of a decrease of $82$917 million in 2004 from 2003. Thepretax income increase in 2005 was primarily due to higher natural gas and liquid hydrocarbon prices partially offset by lower sales volumes.revenues as discussed above. The lower volumeseffective income tax rate was 37 percent in 2005 resulted primarily from weather-related downtime in the Gulf of Mexico and natural declines in field production rates. The decrease in 2004 was due to lower liquid hydrocarbon and natural gas volumes primarily resulting from natural field declines, weather-related downtime in the Gulf of Mexico and the sale of the Yates field in late 2003, partially offset by higher liquid hydrocarbon and natural gas prices. Derivative losses totaled $5 million in 2005, compared to $118 million in 2004 and $91 million in 2003.

years. Our cost of storm-related repairs as a result of 2005 hurricane activity in the Gulf of Mexico was not significant. Oursignificant and our Gulf of Mexico production hasquickly returned to pre-storm levels. In late September 2004, certain production platforms in the Gulf of Mexico were evacuated due to hurricane activity. All facilities were back on line by October 1, 2004 with the exception of the Petronius platform which came back on line in March 2005. As a result of the damage to the Petronius platform, we recorded expense of $11 million in 2004 representing repair costs incurred, partially offset by the net effects of the property damage insurance recoveries and the related retrospective insurance premiums. We recorded income of $53 million in 2005 and $34 million in 2004 for business interruption insurance recoveries.
International E&P income increased $226 million in 2006 from 2005, reflecting an increase in pretax income of $1.639 billion and an increase in the effective tax rate from 34 percent in 2005 compared to $32.76 per bbl62 percent in 2004 and $27.02 per bbl in 2003. Domestic average natural gas prices were $6.42 per thousand cubic feet (“mcf”) excluding derivative activity in 2005, compared with $4.89 per mcf in 2004 and $4.53 per mcf in 2003.
International E&P incomeincreased by $801$488 million in 2005 from 2004, and by $198 million in 2004 from 2003. Thereflecting an increase in 2005 waspretax income of $740 million and an effective income tax rate of 37 percent in both years. The revenue increase discussed above had the most significant impact on pretax income. Increases in production costs and depletion, depreciation and amortization related primarily the result of higher product prices and liquid hydrocarbon sales volumes, partially offset by higher production taxes in Russia, dry well expenses and lower natural gas sales volumes. The increase in 2004 was primarily due to higher liquid hydrocarbon and natural gas prices and volumes partially offset by higher derivative losses. Derivative losses totaled $386 million in 2005, compared to $51 million in 2004 and $19 million in 2003.
RM&T segment incomeincreased by $1.607$1.167 billion in 2006 from 2005 and $1.060 billion in 2005 from 20042004. Segment income in 2006 and 2005 benefited from the 38 percent minority interest in MPC that we acquired on June 30, 2005. Pre-tax income increased by $587$1.802 billion in 2006 from 2005 and $1.766 billion in 2005 from 2004. The pretax earnings reduction related to the minority interest was $376 million in 2004 from 2003.2005 and $539 million in 2004. The increases were primarily due to higherkey driver of the increase in RM&T pretax income in both years was our refining and wholesale marketing margins. The refining and wholesale marketinggross margin in 2005which averaged 15.822.88 cents per gallon versus a 2004 levelin 2006 compared to 15.82 cents in 2005 and 8.77 cents in 2004. The increase in the margin for 2006 reflected wider crack spreads, improved refined product sales realizations, the favorable effects of 8.8 centsour ethanol blending program and a 2003 level of 6.0 cents. Marginsincreased refinery throughputs. In 2005, the margin improved initially in 2005 due to wider sweet/sour crude oil differentials and more recently,later due to the temporary impact that Hurricanes Katrina and Rita had on refined product marginsprices and concerns about the adequacy of distillate supplies heading into that winter. Margins improved initially in 2004 due to the market’s concerns about refiners’ ability to supply the new Tier II low sulfur gasolines which were required effective January 1, 2004. We also benefited from wider sweet/sour crude differentials in 2004. We averaged 973,000 barrels of crude oil throughput per day in 2005, or 102 percent of average system capacity. We averaged 939,000 barrels of crude oil throughput per day in 2004 and 917,000 in 2003, representing 99 percent and 98 percent of average system capacity for those years.

We averaged 980 mbpd of crude oil and other feedstock purchases, to protect carrying valuesthroughput in 2006, or 101 percent of excess inventories and to protect crack spread values.

IG segment income decreased $39 million in 2006 from 2005 compared to an increase of $18 million in 20042005 from 2004. In 2006, a $17 million pretax loss was primarily due to increased earningsrecognized as a result of the renegotiation of a technology agreement and income from our equity method investment in AMPCO was lower due to plant downtime during a planned turnaround and higher income from our Alaska LNG operations,subsequent compressor repair, partially offset by costs associated with ongoing development of certain integrated gas projects and lower margins from gas marketing activities, including recognized changeshigher realized methanol prices. The provision for income taxes also increased $15 million in the fair value of derivatives used to support those activities. Additionally, the 2003 results included an impairment charge of $22 million on an equity method investment and a loss of $17 million on the termination of two operating leases for tankers used in our Alaska LNG operations. The AMPCO methanol plant in Equatorial Guinea operated at a 98 percent on-stream factor in 2005 and a 95 percent on-stream factor in 2004, and posted index prices for methanol remained strong.

The $643$637 million increase in capital expenditures in 2006 over 2005 mainlyprimarily resulted from increased spending in the E&P segmentssegment and primarily relates to significant acreage acquisitions in the Bakken Shale in North Dakota and eastern Montana and the Piceance Basin of Colorado, as well as to continued work on the Alvheim/Vilje development offshore Norway and the Neptune development in the Gulf of Mexico. The $264 million decrease in integrated gas spending reflects the fact that the LNG production facility in Equatorial Guinea is nearing completion. The $655 million increase in 2005 capital expenditures over 2004 mainly resulted from increased spending related to the Alvheim development offshore Norway and the Equatorial Guinea LNG production facility.

Acquisitionsin the IG segment2006 primarily included cash payments of $718 million associated with the EG LNG plant. The increase of $338 millionour re-entry into Libya. Acquisitions in 2004 from 2003 mainly resulted from increased spending in the IG segment associated with the EG LNG plant.
Disposal of assetswas and of discontinued operations totaled $966 million in 2006, compared with $131 million in 2005 compared withand $76 million in 2004 and $1.256 billion in 2003 which includes2004. Proceeds of $832 million from the disposal of discontinued operations.operations in 2006 related to the sale of our Russian exploration and production businesses in June 2006. In 2006, other disposals of assets included proceeds from the sale of 90 percent of our interest in Syrian natural gas fields, SSA stores and other domestic production and transportation assets. In 2005 and 2004, proceeds were primarily from the sale of various domestic producing properties and SSA stores. In 2003, proceeds were primarily from the disposition of our E&P properties in western Canada, the Yates field and gathering system, various SSA stores and other interests and producing properties.
Net cash used in financing activitiestotaled $2.581 billion in 2006, compared with $2.345 billion in 2005, compared withand net cash provided of $527 million in 20042004. Significant uses of cash in financing activities during 2006 included common stock repurchases under a previously announced plan, which is discussed under Liquidity and netCapital Resources, dividend payments, the repayment of our 6.65% notes that matured during 2006 and the early extinguishment of portions of our outstanding debt. The most significant use of cash used of $888 million in 2003. The change from 2004 to 2005 was primarily related to the repayment of $1.920 billion of debt assumed as a part of the Acquisition in 2005 andacquisition of Ashland's 38 percent of MPC. In 2004, cash provided from financing activities was primarily related to the issuance of 34,500,000 shares of common stock on March 31, 2004, resulting in net proceeds of $1.004 billion in 2004.billion. The change from 2004 to 2005 also included an increase in dividends paid and $272 million of distributions to the minority shareholder of MPC prior to the Acquisition, net of an increase in contributions from the minority shareholders of EGHoldings. The increase in 2004 was due to the net proceeds from the common stock issuance discussed above as well as the suspension of distributions to the minority shareholder of MPC in 2004. This was partially offset by an increase in dividends paid to stockholders.
Derivative Instruments
See “Quantitative"Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk”Risk" on page 53,56, for a discussion of derivative instruments and associated market risk.
Dividends to Stockholders
Dividends of $1.22$1.53 per common share or $436$548 million were paid during 2005.2006. On January 29, 2006,2007, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of 33$0.40 cents per share on our common stock, payable March 10, 2006,12, 2007, to stockholders of record at the close of business on February 16, 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our main sources of liquidity and capital resources are internally generated cash flow from operations, committed credit facilities and access to both the debt and equity capital markets. Our ability to access the debt capital market is supported by our investment grade credit ratings. Our senior unsecured debt is currently rated investment grade by Standard and Poor’sPoor's Corporation, Moody’sMoody's Investor Services, Inc. and Fitch Ratings with ratings of BBB+, Baa1, and BBB+. Because of the liquidity and capital resource alternatives available to us, including internally generated cash flow, we believe that our short-term and long-term liquidity is adequate to fund operations, including our capital spending programs, stock repurchase program, repayment of debt maturities for the years 2006, 2007 and 2008, and any amounts that may ultimately be paid in connection with contingencies.
During 2006, we entered into an amendment to our $1.5 billion five-year revolving credit agreement, expanding the size of the facility that terminates into $2.0 billion and extending the termination date from May 2009.2009 to May 2011. Concurrent with this amendment, the $500 million MPC revolving credit facility was terminated. At December 31, 2005,2006, there were no borrowings against this facility. At December 31, 2005,2006, we had no commercial
43
During 2006 we entered into a committed $500loan agreement which allows borrowings of up to $525 million five-year revolvingfrom the Norwegian export credit facility with third-party financial institutions that terminatesagency based upon the amount of qualifying purchases by Marathon of goods and services from Norwegian suppliers. The loan agreement provides for either a fixed or floating interest rate option at the time of the initial drawdown. Should we elect to borrow under the agreement, the initial drawdown can only occur in May 2009. At December 31, 2005, there were no borrowings against this facility.
As a condition of the closing agreements for the Acquisition, we are required to maintain MPC on a stand-alone basis financially for a two-year period.through June 30, 2007. During this period of time, capital contributions into MPC are prohibited and MPC is prohibited from incurring additional debt, except for borrowings under an existing intercompany loan facility to fund an expansion project at MPC’sMPC's Detroit refinery and in the event of limited extraordinary circumstances. MPC may only use its revolving credit facility for short-term working capital requirements in a manner consistent with past practices. There are no restrictions against MPC making intercompany loans or declaring dividends to its parent. We believe these facilitiesthat the
46
existing cash balances of MPC and cash provided from MPC’sits operations will be adequate to meet its stand-alone liquidity requirements.
As of December 31, 2005,2006, there was $1.7 billion aggregate amount of common stock, preferred stock and other equity securities, debt securities, trust preferred securities or other securities, including securities convertible into or exchangeable for other equity or debt securities available to be issued under the $2.7 billion universal shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in 2002. On June 30, 2005, we issued $955 million of common stock to Ashland shareholders through a separate registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission which was declared effective May 20, 2005.
Our cash-adjusteddebt-to-capital debt-to-capital ratio (total-debt-minus-cash to total-debt-plus-equity-minus-cash) was 11six percent at December 31, 2005,2006, compared to 811 percent at year-end 20042005 as shown below. This includes $543$519 million of debt that is serviced by United States Steel. We continually monitor our spending levels, market conditions and related interest rates to maintain what

Stock Repurchase Program
In January 2006, we announced a $2 billion share repurchase program. In January 2007, our Board of Directors authorized the extension of this share repurchase program by an additional $500 million. As of February 21, 2007, we had repurchased 24.2 million common shares at a cost of $2 billion. We anticipate completing the additional $500 million in share repurchases during the first half of 2007. Purchases under the program may be in either open market transactions, including block purchases, or in privately negotiated transactions. We will use cash on hand, cash generated from operations or cash from available borrowings to acquire shares. This program may be changed based upon our financial condition or changes in market conditions and is subject to termination prior to completion.
The forward-looking statements about our common stock repurchase program are based on current expectations, estimates and projections and are not guarantees of future performance. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations, estimates and projections and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are changes in prices of and demand for crude oil, natural gas and refined products, actions of competitors, disruptions or interruptions of our production or refining operations due to unforeseen hazards such as weather conditions, acts of war or terrorist acts and the governmental or military response, thereto, and other operating and economic considerations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Off-balance sheet arrangements comprise those arrangements that may potentially impact our liquidity, capital resources and results of operations, even though such arrangements are not recorded as liabilities under generally accepted accounting principles. Although off-balance sheet arrangements serve a variety of our business purposes, we are not dependent on these arrangements to maintain our liquidity and capital resources; and we are not aware of any circumstances that are reasonably likely to cause the off-balance sheet arrangements to have a material adverse effect on liquidity and capital resources.
We have provided various forms of guarantees to unconsolidated affiliates, United States Steel and certain lease contracts.others. These arrangements are described in Note 2830 to the consolidated financial statements.

We are a party to an agreement that would require us to purchase, under certain circumstances, the interest in Pilot Travel Centers LLC (“PTC”("PTC") not currently owned. This put/call agreement is described in Note 2830 to the consolidated financial statements.
Nonrecourse Indebtedness of Investees
Certain of our investees have incurred indebtedness that we do not support through guarantees or otherwise. If we were obligated to share in this debt on a pro rata ownership basis, our share would have been approximately $308$340 million as of December 31, 2005.2006. Of this amount, $183$217 million relates to PTC. If any of these investees default, we have no obligation to support the debt. Our partner in PTC has guaranteed $125$75 million of the total PTC debt.
Obligations Associated with the Separation of United States Steel
On December 31, 2001, we disposed of our steel business through a tax-free distribution of the common stock of our wholly owned subsidiary, United States Steel, to holders of our USX – U.S.U. S. Steel Group class of common stock in exchange for all outstanding shares of Steel Stock on a one-for-one basis.
We remain obligated (primarily or contingently) for certain debt and other financial arrangements for which United States Steel has assumed responsibility for repayment under the terms of the Separation. United States Steel’sSteel's obligations to Marathon are general unsecured obligations that rank equal to United States Steel’sSteel's accounts payable and other general unsecured obligations. If United States Steel fails to satisfy these obligations, we would become responsible for repayment. Under the Financial Matters Agreement, United States Steel has all of the existing contractual rights under the leases assumed from Marathon, including all rights related to purchase options, prepayments or the grant or release of security interests. However, United States Steel has no right to increase amounts due under or lengthen the term of any of the assumed leases, other than extensions set forth in the terms of the assumed leases.
As of December 31, 2005,2006, we have identified the following obligations totaling $597$564 million that have been assumed by United States Steel:

Marathon and United States Steel have entered into a tax sharing agreement that allocates tax liabilities relating to taxable periods ended on or before December 31, 2001. The agreement includes indemnification provisions to address the possibility that the taxing authorities may seek to collect a tax liability from one party where the tax sharing agreement allocates that liability to the other party. In 2006 and 2005, in accordance with the terms of the tax sharing agreement, we paid $35 million and $6 million to United States Steel in connection with the settlement with the Internal Revenue Service of the consolidated federal income tax returns of USX Corporation for the years 1995 through 1997.
United States Steel reported in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005,2006, that it has significant restrictive covenants related to its indebtedness including cross-default and cross-acceleration clauses on selected debt that could have an adverse effect on its financial position and liquidity. However, United States Steel management believes that its liquidity will be adequate to satisfy its obligations for the foreseeable future.
Transactions with Related Parties
We own a 63 percent working interest in the Alba field offshore EG.Equatorial Guinea. We own a 52 percent interest in an onshore LPG processing plant in EG through an equity method investee, Alba Plant LLC. Additionally, we own a 45 percent interest in an onshore methanol production plant through AMPCO, an equity method investee. We sell our marketed natural gas from the Alba field to Alba Plant LLC and AMPCO. AMPCO uses the natural gas to manufacture methanol and sells the methanol through another equity method investee, AMPCO Marketing LLC.
Sales to our 50 percent equity method investee, PTC, which consists primarily of refined petroleum products, accounted for less than two percent or less of our total sales revenue for 2006, 2005 2004 and 2003.2004. PTC is the largest travel center network in the United States and operates approximately 260269 travel centers nationwide. We also sellin the United States and Canada. Prior to the Acquisition on June 30, 2005, Ashland was a related party as a result of its 38 percent minority interest in MPC. During that time, we sold refined petroleum products consisting mainly of petrochemicals, base lube oils and asphalt to Ashland which owned a 38 percent interest in MPC prior to the Acquisition.Ashland. Our sales to Ashland accounted for less than one percent of our total sales revenue for 2005 2004 and 2003.2004. We believe that these transactions were conducted under terms comparable to those with unrelated parties.

Management’sManagement's Discussion and Analysis of Environmental Matters, Litigation and Contingencies
We have incurred and will continue to incur substantial capital, operating and maintenance, and remediation expenditures as a result of environmental laws and regulations. If these expenditures, as with all costs, are not ultimately recoveredreflected in the prices of our products and services, our operating results will be adversely affected. We believe that substantially all of our competitors must comply with similar environmental laws and regulations.
50
However, the specific impact on each competitor may vary depending on a number of factors, including the age and location of its operating facilities, marketing areas, production processes and whether it is also engaged in the petrochemical business or the marine transportation of crude oil and refined products.
Our environmental expenditures for each of the last three years were(a):

Our environmental capital expenditures accounted for 135 percent of total capital expenditures for continuing operations in 2006, 14 percent in 2005 19and 20 percent in 2004 and 17 percent in 2003.
We accrue for environmental remediation activities when the responsibility to remediate is probable and the amount of associated costs can be reasonably estimated. As environmental remediation matters proceed toward ultimate resolution or as additional remediation obligations arise, charges in excess of those previously accrued may be required.
New or expanded environmental requirements, which could increase our environmental costs, may arise in the future. We comply with all legal requirements regarding the environment, but since not all of them are fixed or presently determinable (even under existing legislation) and may be affected by future legislation or regulations, it is not possible to predict all of the ultimate costs of compliance, including remediation costs that may be incurred and penalties that may be imposed.
Our environmental capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $218$159 million or 78 percent of capital expenditures in 2006.2007. Predictions beyond 20062007 can only be broad-based estimates, which have varied, and will continue to vary, due to the ongoing evolution of specific regulatory requirements, the possible imposition of more stringent requirements and the availability of new technologies, among other matters. Based on currently identified projects, we anticipate that environmental capital expenditures will be approximately $147$277 million in 2007;2008; however, actual expenditures may vary as the number and scope of environmental projects are revised as a result of improved technology or changes in regulatory requirements and could increase if additional projects are identified or additional requirements are imposed.
Of particular significance to our refining operations arewere U.S. EPA regulations that requirerequired reduced sulfur levels starting in 2004 for gasoline and in 2006 for diesel fuel. Our combined capital costs to achieveWe achieved compliance with these rules are expectedregulations and began production of ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel for on-road use prior to approximate $900the June 1, 2006 deadline. The cost of achieving compliance with these regulations was approximately $850 million. We will also be spending approximately $250 million from 2006 through 2010 to produce ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel for off-road use. Further, we estimate that we will spend approximately $400 million over thea four-year period between 2002 and 2006, which includes costs that could be incurred as part of other refinery upgrade projects. Costs incurred through December 31, 2005, were approximately $825 million,beginning in 2008 to comply with the remainder expectedMobile Source Air Toxics II regulations relating to be incurred in 2006.benzene. This is a forward-looking statement. Some factors (among others) that could potentially affect gasoline and diesel fuel compliance costs include completionpreliminary estimate as the Mobile Source Air Toxics II regulations should be finalized in the first half of construction andstart-up activities.
During 2001, MPC entered into a New Source Review consent decree and settlement of alleged CAAClean Air Act and other violations with the EPA covering all of MPC’sits refineries. The settlement committed MPC to specific control technologies and implementation schedules for environmental expenditures and improvements to MPC’sits refineries over approximately an eight-year period. The total one-time expenditures for these environmental projects are

The oil industry across the U.K. continental shelf is making reductions in the amount of $9 million. We believe this settlement will provide MPC with increased permitting and operating flexibility while achieving significant emission reductions. In 2005, MPC entered into two amendments of the consent decree which captured all revisionsoil in its produced water discharges pursuant to the decree agreedDepartment of Trade and Industry initiative under the Oil Pollution Prevention and Control Regulations ("OSPAR") of 2005.

Capital, Investment and Exploration Budget
We approved a capital, investment and exploration budget of $3.4$4.242 billion for 2006,2007, which includes budgeted capital expenditures of $3.2$3.886 billion. This represents a 1316 percent increase over 20052006 actual spending. The primary focus of the 20062007 budget is to find additional oil and natural gas reserves, develop existing fields, strengthen RM&T assets and continue implementation of the integrated gas strategy. The budget includes worldwide production capital spending of $1.357$1.429 billion primarily in the United States, Norway, Russia, Equatorial GuineaLibya and Ireland. The worldwide exploration budget of $588$802 million includes plans to drill 1914 to 17 significant exploration or appraisal wells. Other activities will focus primarily on projects primarilyareas within or adjacent to our onshore producing properties in the United States. The budget includes $886 million$1.464 billion for RM&T, primarily for refining projects including the 180 mbpd Garyville refinery expansion project and the FEED for a potential Detroit refinery heavy oil upgrading project which would allow us to process increased volumes of Canadian oil sands production. The RM&T budget also includes increased investments targeting value-added projects primarily aimedin transportation and logistics, a strategically important area of the business, including the expansion of our ethanol blending capabilities at de-bottlenecking various refining components to increase throughput capacity, as well as investments necessary to meet revised EPA National Ambient Air Quality Standards, best achievable control technology and Tier II Clean Fuels regulations. Also includedterminals in the budget for RM&T is planned spending for the FEED work being undertaken for the potential 180,000 bpd Garyville, Louisiana refinery expansion project.Midwest and Southeast. The IGintegrated gas budget of $341$331 million is primarily for the ongoing constructioncompletion of the EG LNG plant.processing facility in Equatorial Guinea, as well as FEED expenditures associated with a potential expansion of that facility. The remaining $210$216 million balance is designated for capitalized interest and corporate activities. This budget does not include the 2006 cash payments related to our re-entry to Libya, estimated to be $732 million.
Exploration and Production
The seven announced discoveries in 20052006 (six in deepwater Angola and one in Norway) resulted from our balanced exploration strategy which places an emphasis on near-term production opportunities, while retaining an appropriate exposure to longer-term options. Major exploration activities, which are currently underway or under evaluation, include those in:
49
We estimate that our 2007 production available for sale will average approximately 390 to 425 mboepd, excluding the impact of acquisitions and dispositions. With the developments we have under construction, we estimate our production available for sale will grow to 465 to 520 mboepd by 2010, excluding acquisitions and dispositions. Projected liquid hydrocarbon and natural gas production available for sale is based on a number of assumptions, including (among others) pricing, supply and demand for petroleum products, the amount of capital available for exploration and development, regulatory constraints, production decline rates of mature fields, timing of commencing production from new wells, drilling rig availability, inability or alldelay in obtaining necessary government and third-party approvals and permits, unforeseen hazards such as weather conditions, acts of the carrying value of the fieldwar or terrorist acts and the associated Canyon Express pipeline. At December 31, 2005, the combined carrying value of those assets approximated $20 million.
In 2006, we issued a request for proposals to engage interested parties in a process that could lead to a Canadian oil sands venture. This process is intended to explore various commercial arrangements under which we would provide heavy Canadian oil sands crude oil processing capacity in exchange for an equity interest in a Canadian oil sands project through a joint venture, or other alternative business arrangements that potential partners may choose to propose.
The above discussion includes forward-looking statements with respect to anticipated future exploratory and development drilling, the timing and levelspossibility of our worldwide liquid hydrocarbon and natural gas production, future exploration and drilling activity, possible development ofdeveloping Blocks 31 and 32 offshore Angola, the timing of production from the Neptune development, the Piceance Basin, the combined Alvheim/Vilje development, the Volund field and estimated levels of production in Libya.the Corrib project. Some factors thatwhich could potentially affect thisthese forward-looking informationstatements include pricing, supply and demand for petroleum products, the amount of capital available for exploration and development, occurrence of acquisitions/dispositions of oil and gas properties, regulatory constraints, timing of commencing production from new wells, drilling rig availability, unforeseen hazards such as weather conditions, acts of war or terrorist acts and the governmental or military response, thereto, and other geological, operating and economic considerations. Except for the Alvheim/Vilje and Volund developments, the foregoing forward-looking statements may be further affected by the inability to or delay in obtaining necessary government and third-party approvals and permits. The estimated levels of productionpossible developments in Libya and possible development of Blocks 31 and 32 offshore Angola could further be affected by presently known data concerning size and character of reservoirs, economic recoverability, future drilling success and production experience. The above discussion also contains forward-looking statements concerning a potential Canadian oil sands venture. Factors that could affect the formation of a Canadian oil sands venture include unforeseen difficulty in negotiation of definitive agreements, results of front-end engineering and design work, inability or delay in obtaining necessary government and third-party approvals, continued favorable investment climate, and other geological, operating and economic considerations. The foregoing factors (among others) could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
Refining, Marketing and Transportation
Throughout 2005,2006, we remained focused on our strategy of leveraging refining and marketing investments in core markets, as well as expanding and enhancing our asset base while controlling costs. The record refinery throughput performance was achieved even though the Garyville, Louisiana and Texas City, Texas refineries were shut down briefly due to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Based on our current plans, we expect ourOur 2006 average daily crude oil throughput to exceed thatexceeded the record throughput achieved in 2005.
In 2006, our Board of 2005. This project increased the refinery’s crude processing capacity from 74,000 bpd to 100,000 bpd as well as enabled the refinery to produce new clean fuels and further control regulated air emissions. The refinery ramped up to full capacity of 100,000 bpd in mid-November.

53
We have also commenced front-end engineering and design for a potential heavy oil upgrading project at our Detroit refinery which would allow us to process increased volumes of Canadian oil sand production and are undertaking a feasibility study for a similar upgrading project at our Catlettsburg refinery.
In 2006, we signed a definitive agreement forming a joint venture that will construct and operate one or more ethanol production plants. Our partner in the joint venture will provide the day-to-day management of the FEED workplants, as well as grain procurement, and distillers dried grain marketing and ethanol management services. This venture will enable us to maintain the receiptreliability of applicable permits.
The above discussion includes forward-looking statements with respect to projectionsconcerning the planned expansion of crude oil throughput, the Garyville Louisiana refinery, expansion project,potential heavy oil refining upgrading projects and other related businesses.a joint venture that would construct and operate ethanol plants. Some factors that could affect crude oil throughput include planned and unplanned refinery maintenance projects, the level of refining margins, and other operating considerations. The Garyville refinery expansion project may be affected byand the results of the FEED work,ethanol plant construction, management and development include necessary regulatorygovernment and third party approvals, crude oil supply and transportation logistics, the receipt of applicable permits, continued favorable investment climate, as well as availability of materials and labor, unforeseen hazards such as weather conditions and other risks customarily associated with construction projects once construction begins.projects. The foregoingGaryville project may be further affected by crude oil supply. These factors (among others) could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
Integrated Gas
Construction of the LNG production facility in market demandEquatorial Guinea continues ahead of its original schedule with the first shipments of LNG projected for the second quarter of 2007. Construction is nearly complete and commissioning has commenced. We own a 60 percent interest in Equatorial Guinea LNG Holdings Limited. We are currently seeking additional natural gas supplies to allow full utilization of this LNG facility, which is designed to have a higher capacity and a longer life than the current contract to supply 3.4 million metric tons per year for 17 years.
Once the Equatorial Guinea LNG production facility commences its principal operations and begins to generate revenue, we must assess whether or supply, environmental issues, availability or constructionnot EGHoldings continues to be a variable interest entity ("VIE"). We consolidate EGHoldings because it is a VIE and we are its primary beneficiary. Despite the fact that we hold majority ownership, we would not consolidate EGHoldings if it ceased to be a VIE because the minority shareholders have substantive participating rights. If EGHoldings ceased to be a VIE, we would account for our interest using the equity method of sufficientaccounting.
In 2006, with our project partners, we awarded a FEED contract for initial work related to a potential second LNG vessels,production facility on Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea. The FEED work is expected to be completed during 2007. The scope of the FEED work for the potential 4.4 million metric tones per annum LNG facility includes feed gas metering, liquefaction, refrigeration, ethylene storage, boil off gas compression, product transfer to storage and LNG product metering. A final investment decision is expected in early 2008.
Atlantic Methanol Production Company LLC underwent a scheduled maintenance shutdown in 2006, during which bottlenecks in several parts of the plant were also removed. Deliveries resumed in October 2006 and AMPCO expects to reach its full expansion capacity during 2007.
The above discussion contains forward looking statements with respect to the timing and levels of production associated with the LNG production facility and the possible expansion thereof. Factors that could affect the LNG production facility include unforeseen problems arising from commissioning of the facilities, unforeseen hazards such as weather conditions.conditions and other operating considerations such as shipping the LNG. In addition to these factors, other factors that could potentially affect the possible expansion of the current LNG projectproduction facility and the development of additional LNG capacity through additional projects include partner approvals, access to sufficient natural gas volumes through exploration or commercial negotiations with other resource owners and access to sufficient regasification capacity. The foregoing factors (among others) could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are expectednot currently required to result from our Libyan operations, wherebe measured at fair value. It requires that unrealized gains and losses on items for which the effective tax rate isfair value option has been elected be recorded in excessnet income. The statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of 90 percent,assets and an increase in the U.K. supplemental corporation tax rate from 10 percent to 20 percentliabilities. For us, SFAS No. 159 will be effective January 1, 2006. Also increasing our overall effective tax rate are2008, and retrospective application is not permitted. Should we elect to apply the incremental taxes associated withfair value option to any eligible items that exist at January 1, 2008, the expected repatriationeffect of foreign earningsthe first remeasurement to fair value would be reported as a cumulative effect adjustment to the U.S.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but may require some entities to change their measurement practices. For us, SFAS No. 157 will be effective January 1, 2008, with early application permitted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this statement.
In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position ("FSP") No. AUG AIR-1, "Accounting for Planned Major Maintenance Activities." This FSP prohibits the use of the accrue-in-advance method of accounting for planned major maintenance activities in annual and interim financial reporting periods. We expense such costs in the same annual period as incurred; however, estimated annual major maintenance costs are recognized as expense throughout the year on a pro rata basis. As such, adoption of FSP No. AUG AIR-1 will have no impact on our stock-based compensation awards has hadannual consolidated financial statements. We are required to adopt the FSP effective January 1, 2007. We do not believe the provisions of FSP No. AUG AIR-1 will have a significant impact on our income from operations. We recognize stock-based compensation expense based on the difference between the market price and the grant price of these variable awards each reporting period until settlement. During 2005, we experienced a 66 percent increase in the market price of our common stock. As a result, we recognized $69 million in stock-based compensation expense compared to $30 million for 2004. Due to exercises of these awards during 2005, the number of outstanding variable awards decreased approximately 74 percent. We expect that this change will reduce the impact these variable awards will have on stock-based compensation expense in 2006.

In November 2004,March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs156, "Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets – an amendmentAn Amendment of ARBFASB Statement No. 43, Chapter 4.”140." This statement requires that items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight,amends SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and re-handling costs beServicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," with respect to the accounting for separately recognized as a current-period charge.servicing assets and servicing liabilities. We are required to implement this statement in the first quarter of 2006.adopt SFAS No. 156 effective January 1, 2007. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 151this statement to have a materialsignificant effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, “Accounting"Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments – an amendmentAn Amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140.”" SFAS No. 155 simplifies the accounting for certain hybrid financial instruments, eliminates the FASB’s interim FASB guidance which provides that beneficial interests in securitized financial assets are not subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 133, “Accounting"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,”" and eliminates the restriction on the passive derivative instruments that a qualifying special-purpose entity may hold. For us, SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued on or after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006.January 1, 2007. We are currently studying the provisionsdo not expect adoption of this Statementstatement to determine the impacthave a significant effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial statements.

Management has authorized the use of futures, forwards, swaps and combinations of options to manage exposure to market fluctuations in commodity prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
We use commodity-based derivatives to manage price risk related to the purchase, production or sale of crude oil, natural gas and refined products. To a lesser extent, we are exposed to the risk of price fluctuations on natural gas liquids and petroleum feedstocks used as raw materials and on purchases of ethanol.
Our strategy generally has generally been to obtain competitive prices for our products and allow operating results to reflect market price movements dictated by supply and demand. We use a variety of derivative instruments, including option combinations, as part of the overall risk management program to manage commodity price risk in our different businesses. As market conditions change, we evaluate our risk management program and could enter into strategies that assume greater market risk whereby cash settlement of commodity-based derivatives will be based on market prices.
Our E&P segment primarily uses commodity derivative instruments selectively to protect against price decreases on portions of our future production when deemed advantageous to do so. We also use derivatives to protect the value of natural gas purchased and injected into storage in support of production operations. We use financialcommodity derivative instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate exposure on foreign currency denominated capital expenditures, operating expenses and tax payments.
Our RM&T segment uses commodity derivative instruments:
We use financial derivative instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate exposure on certain foreign currency denominated capital expenditures.
We use financial derivative instruments to manage certain interest rate risk exposures. As we enter into these derivatives, assessments are made as to the qualification of each transaction for hedge accounting.
We believe that our use of derivative instruments along with risk assessment procedures and internal controls does not expose us to material risk. However, the use of derivative instruments could materially affect our results of operations in particular quarterly or annual periods. We believe that the use of these instruments will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or liquidity.

At December 31, 2006 and 2005, we havehad no open derivative contracts related to our oil and natural gas production and therefore remained substantially exposed to market prices of commodities. In 2004, we reduced our exposure to market prices of commodities on 26 percent of crude oil production and 7 percent of natural gas production. In 2003, we reduced our exposure to market prices of commodities on 25 percent of crude oil production and 22 percent of natural gas production.

We do not attempt to qualify commodity derivative instruments used in our RM&T operations for hedge accounting. As a result, we recognize in net income all changes in the fair value of derivatives used in our RM&T operations. DerivativePretax derivative gains orand losses included in RM&T segment income for each of the last three years are summarized in the following table:

Derivatives used in non-trading activities have an underlying physical commodity transaction. DerivativeSince the majority of RM&T segment derivative contracts are for the sale of commodities, derivative losses generally occur when market prices increase and generallytypically are offset by gains on the underlying physical commodity transactions. Conversely, derivative gains generally occur when market prices decrease and generally are typically offset by losses on the underlying physical commodity transactions.
Other Commodity RiskRelated Risks
We are impacted by basis risk, caused by factors that affect the relationship between commodity futures prices reflected in derivative commodity instruments and the cash market price of the underlying commodity. Natural gas transaction prices are frequently based on industry reference prices that may vary from prices experienced in local markets. For example, New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”("NYMEX") contracts for natural gas are priced at Louisiana’sLouisiana's Henry Hub, while the underlying quantities of natural gas may be produced and sold in the western United States at prices that do not move in strict correlation with NYMEX prices. If commodity price changes in one region are not reflected in other regions, derivative commodity instruments may no longer provide the expected hedge, resulting in increased exposure to basis risk. These regional price differences could yield favorable or unfavorable results. Over-the counter (“OTC”)Over-the-counter transactions are being used to manage exposure to a portion of basis risk.
We are impacted by liquidity risk, caused by timing delays in liquidating contract positions due to a potential inability to identify a counterparty willing to accept an offsetting position. Due to the large number of active participants, liquidity risk exposure is relatively low for exchange-traded transactions.

We are impacted by interest rate fluctuations which affect the fair value of certain financial instruments. A sensitivity analysis of the projected incremental effect of a hypothetical 10 percent decrease in interest rates is provided in the following table:

At December 31, 20052006 and 2004,2005, our portfolio of long-term debt was substantially comprised of fixed rate instruments. Therefore, the fair value of the portfolio is relatively sensitive to the effects of interest rate fluctuations. This sensitivity is illustrated by the $152$132 million increase in the fair value of long-term debt at December 31, 2006, assuming a hypothetical 10 percent decrease in interest rates. However, our sensitivity to interest rate declines and corresponding increases in the fair value of our debt portfolio would unfavorably affect our results of operations and cash flows only ifwhen we would elect to repurchase or otherwise retire all or a portion of its fixed-rate debt portfolio at prices above carrying value.
We manage our exposure to interest rate movements by utilizing financial derivative instruments. The primary objective of this program is to reduce our overall cost of borrowing by managing the fixed and floating interest rate mix of the debt portfolio. We have entered into several interest rate swap agreements, designated as fair value hedges, which effectively resulted in an exchange of existing obligations to pay fixed interest rates for obligations to pay floating rates. The following table summarizes by individual debt instrument, theour interest rate swap activityswaps as of December 31, 2005:

We manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rates by utilizing forward and option contracts, generally with terms of 365 days or less.contracts. The primary objective of this program is to reduce our exposure to movements in the foreign currency markets by locking in foreign currency rates. At December 31, 2005,2006, the following currency derivatives were outstanding. All contracts currently qualify for hedge accounting unless noted.

The aggregate effect on foreign exchange and optioncurrency forward contracts of a hypothetical 10 percent change to year-end exchange rates at December 31, 2006, would be approximately $15$14 million.
Credit Risk
We are exposed to significant credit risk from United States Steel arising from the Separation. That exposure is discussed in “Management’sManagement's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Obligations Associated with the Separation of United States Steel”.
Safe Harbor
These quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk include forward-looking statements with respect to management’smanagement's opinion about risks associated with the use of derivative instruments. These statements are based on certain assumptions with respect to market prices and industry supply of and demand for crude oil, natural gas, refined products and other feedstocks. If these assumptions prove to be inaccurate, future outcomes with respect to our hedging programs may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.

To the Stockholders of Marathon Oil Corporation:
We have completed integrated audits of Marathon Oil Corporation's consolidated financial statements and of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Our opinions, based on our audits, are presented below.
Consolidated financial statements
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Marathon Oil Corporation and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its methods of accounting for purchases and sales of inventory with the same counterparty and defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans in 2006 and its method of accounting for conditional asset retirement obligations in 2005.
Internal control over financial reporting
Also, in our opinion, management's assessment, included in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, appearing herein, that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 based on criteria established inInternal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on those criteria. Furthermore, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established inInternal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on management's assessment and on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management's assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

F-8Marathon Oil Corporation ("Marathon" or the "Company") is engaged in worldwide exploration, production and marketing of crude oil and natural gas; domestic refining, marketing and transportation of crude oil and petroleum products; and worldwide marketing and transportation of products manufactured from natural gas, such as liquefied natural gas ("LNG") and methanol, and development of other projects to link stranded natural gas resources with key demand areas.
Prior to June 30, 2005, Marathon owned a 62 percent interest in Marathon Petroleum Company LLC ("MPC"). After Marathon acquired the remaining 38 percent interest as described in Note 6, MPC became a wholly owned subsidiary of Marathon. The accounts of MPC are consolidated in these financial statements for all periods presented and the applicable minority interest has been recognized for activity prior to the acquisition date.
F-9 Investments in variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which Marathon is the primary beneficiary are consolidated.
Gains or losses from a change in ownership of a consolidated subsidiary or an unconsolidated investee are recognized in net income in the period of change.
F-10Income per common share – Basic income per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income per share assumes exercise of stock options and warrants and conversion of convertible debt and preferred securities, provided the effect is not antidilutive.
Management has determined that these are its operating segments because these are the components of Marathon (1) that engage in business activities from which revenues are earned and expenses are incurred, (2) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by Marathon's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to make decisions about resources to be allocated and to assess performance and (3) for which discrete financial information is available. The CODM is responsible for allocating resources to and assessing performance of Marathon's operating segments. Information regarding assets by segment is not presented because it is not reviewed by the CODM. The CODM is the manager over the E&P and IG segments and the manager of the RM&T segment reports to the CODM. The segment managers are responsible for allocating resources within the segments, reviewing financial results of components within the segments and assessing the performance of the components. The components within the segments that are separately reviewed and assessed by the CODM in his role as segment manager are aggregable because they have similar economic characteristics. The CODM reviews the financial results of the RM&T segment at the segment level.
Segment income represents income from continuing operations, net of minority interests and income taxes, attributable to the operating segments. Marathon's corporate general and administrative costs are not allocated to the operating segments. These costs primarily consist of employment costs (including pension effects), professional services, facilities and other costs associated with corporate activities. Non-cash gains and losses on two long-term natural gas sales contracts in the United Kingdom accounted for as derivative instruments, gains and losses on ownership changes in subsidiaries and certain non-operating or infrequently occurring items (as determined by the CODM) also are not allocated to operating segments. See the reconciliation of segment income to consolidated net income in Note 9.
F-11F-8
Marathon recognizes revenues from the production of oil and natural gas when title is transferred. In the continental United States, production volumes of liquid hydrocarbons and natural gas are sold immediately and transported via pipeline. In Alaska and international locations, production volumes may be stored as inventory and sold at a later time. Royalties on the production of oil and natural gas are either paid in cash or settled through the delivery of volumes. Marathon includes royalties in its revenues and cost of revenues when settlement of the royalties is paid in cash, while royalties settled by the delivery of volumes are excluded from revenues and cost of revenues.
Marathon follows the sales method of accounting for crude oil and natural gas production imbalances and would recognize a liability if the existing proved reserves were not adequate to cover the current imbalance situation.
F-12 For the E&P segment, Marathon enters into matching buy/sell transactions to reposition crude oil from one market center to another to maximize the value received for Marathon's crude oil production. For the RM&T segment, Marathon enters into crude oil matching buy/sell transactions to secure the most profitable refinery supply and enters into refined product matching buy/sell transactions to meet projected customer demand and to secure the required volumes in the most cost-effective manner.
A portion of Marathon's matching buy/sell transactions are "nontraditional derivative instruments," which are described below. Effective for contracts entered into or modified on or after April 1, 2006, the income effects of matching buy/sell arrangements accounted for as nontraditional derivative instruments are recognized on a net basis as cost of revenues.

F-13Consumer excise taxes – Marathon is required by various governmental authorities, including countries, states and municipalities, to collect and remit taxes on certain consumer products. Such taxes are presented on a gross basis in revenues and costs and expenses in the consolidated statements of income.
Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts – Marathon's receivables primarily consist of customer accounts receivable, including proprietary credit card receivables. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in Marathon's proprietary credit card receivables. Marathon determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience and the volume of proprietary credit card sales. Marathon reviews the allowance quarterly and past-due balances over 180 days are reviewed individually for collectibility. All other customer receivables are recorded at the invoiced amounts and generally do not bear interest. Account balances for these customer receivables are charged directly to bad debt expense when it becomes probable the receivable will not be collected.

Traditional derivative instruments – Marathon uses derivatives to manage its exposure to commodity price risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency risk. Management has authorized the use of futures, forwards, swaps and combinations of options, including written or net written options, related to the purchase, production or sale of crude oil, natural gas, refined products and ethanol, the fair value of certain assets and liabilities, future interest expense and certain business transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Changes in the fair values of all traditional derivatives are recognized immediately in net income unless the derivative qualifies as a hedge of future cash flows or certain foreign currency exposures. Cash flows related to derivatives used to manage commodity price risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk related to operating expenditures are classified in operating activities with the underlying hedged transactions. Cash flows related to derivatives used to manage exchange rate risk related to capital expenditures denominated in foreign currencies are classified in investing activities with the underlying hedged transactions.
For derivatives qualifying as hedges of future cash flows or certain foreign currency exposures, the effective portion of any changes in fair value is recognized in other comprehensive income and is reclassified to net income when the
F-9
underlying forecasted transaction is recognized in net income. Any ineffective portion of such hedges is recognized in net income as it occurs. For discontinued cash flow hedges, prospective changes in the fair value of the derivative are recognized in net income. The accumulated gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income at the time a hedge is discontinued continues to be deferred until the original forecasted transaction occurs. However, if it is determined that the likelihood of the original forecasted transaction occurring is no longer probable, the entire accumulated gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income is immediately reclassified into net income.
For derivatives designated as hedges of the fair value of recognized assets, liabilities or firm commitments, changes in the fair values of both the hedged item and the related derivative are recognized immediately in net income with an offsetting effect included in the basis of the hedged item. The net effect is to report in net income the extent to which the hedge is not effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value.
Amounts reported in net income are classified as revenues, cost of revenues, depreciation, depletion and amortization or net interest and other financing costs or income based on the nature of the underlying transactions.
As market conditions change, Marathon may use selective derivative instruments that assume market risk. For derivative instruments that are classified as trading, changes in fair value are recognized immediately in net income and are classified as other income. Any premium received is amortized into net income based on the underlying settlement terms of the derivative position. All related effects of a trading strategy, including physical settlement of the derivative position, are also recognized in net income and classified as other income.
Nontraditional derivative instruments – Certain contracts involving the purchase or sale of commodities are not considered normal purchases or normal sales under generally accepted accounting principles and are required to be accounted for as derivative instruments. Marathon refers to such contracts as "nontraditional derivative instruments" because, unlike traditional derivative instruments, nontraditional derivative instruments have not been entered into to manage a risk exposure. Such contracts are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value and changes in fair values are recognized in net income and are classified as either revenues or cost of revenues.
In the E&P segment, two long-term natural gas delivery commitment contracts in the United Kingdom are classified as nontraditional derivative instruments. These contracts contain pricing provisions that are not clearly and closely related to the underlying commodity and therefore must be accounted for as derivative instruments.
In the RM&T segment, certain physical commodity contracts are classified as nontraditional derivative instruments because certain volumes under these contracts are physically netted at particular delivery locations. The netting process causes all contracts at that delivery location to be considered derivative instruments. Other physical contracts that management has chosen not to designate as a normal purchase or normal sale, which can include contracts that involve flash title, are also accounted for as nontraditional derivative instruments.
Investment in marketable securities – Management determines the appropriate classification of investments in marketable debt and equity securities at the time of acquisition and re-evaluates such designation as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Securities classified as "available for sale" are carried at estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. Marathon holds no securities classified as "held to maturity securities" or "trading securities." Realized and unrealized gains and losses are calculated using the specific identification method.
Property, plant and equipment – Marathon uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities. Costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and natural gas properties, to drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves and to drill and equip development wells are capitalized. Costs to drill exploratory wells that do not find proved reserves, geological and geophysical costs and costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties are expensed. Costs incurred for exploratory wells that find reserves that cannot yet be classified as proved are capitalized if (1) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing well and (2) Marathon is making sufficient progress assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project. The status of suspended well costs is monitored continuously and reviewed not less than quarterly.
Capitalized costs of producing oil and natural gas properties are depreciated and depleted by the units-of-production method. Support equipment and other property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives.
Marathon evaluates its oil and gas producing properties for impairment of value on a field-by-field basis or, in certain instances, by logical grouping of assets if there is significant shared infrastructure. Impairment of proved properties is required when the carrying value exceeds undiscounted future net cash flows based on total proved and risk-adjusted probable and possible reserves. Oil and gas producing properties deemed to be impaired are written down to their fair value, as determined by discounted future net cash flows based on total proved and risk-adjusted probable and possible reserves or, if available, comparable market values.
Marathon evaluates its unproved property investment and impairs based on time or geologic factors in addition to the use of an undiscounted future net cash flow approach. Information such as drilling results, reservoir performance, seismic interpretation or future plans to develop acreage are also considered. Unproved property investments deemed to be impaired are written down to their fair value, as determined by discounted future net cash flows. Impairment expense for unproved oil and natural gas properties is reported in exploration expenses.
Property, plant and equipment unrelated to oil and gas producing activities is recorded at cost and depreciated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 3 to 42 years. Such assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized based on the fair value of the asset.
F-10
When property, plant and equipment depreciated on an individual basis are sold or otherwise disposed of, any gains or losses are reported in net income. Gains on disposal of property, plant and equipment are recognized when earned, which is generally at the time of closing. If a loss on disposal is expected, such losses are recognized when the assets are classified as held for sale. Proceeds from disposal of property, plant and equipment depreciated on a group basis are credited to accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization with no immediate effect on net income.
Goodwill – Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired in the acquisition of a business. Such goodwill is not amortized, but rather is tested for impairment annually and when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit with goodwill has been reduced below carrying value. The impairment test requires allocating goodwill and other assets and liabilities to reporting units. Marathon has determined the components of the E&P segment have similar economic characteristics and therefore aggregates the components into a single reporting unit. The RM&T segment is composed of three reporting units: refining and marketing, pipeline transportation and retail marketing. The fair value of each reporting unit is determined and compared to the book value of the reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the book value, including goodwill, then the recorded goodwill is impaired to its implied fair value with a charge to expense.
Intangible assets – Intangible assets primarily include retail marketing tradenames, intangible contract rights and marketing branding agreements. Certain of the marketing tradenames have indefinite lives and therefore are not amortized, but rather are tested for impairment annually and when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the intangible asset has been reduced below carrying value. The other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives or the expected lives of the related contracts, as applicable, which range from 2 to 22 years. Such assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized based on the fair value of the asset.
Environmental costs – Environmental expenditures are capitalized if the costs mitigate or prevent future contamination or if the costs improve environmental safety or efficiency of the existing assets. Marathon provides for remediation costs and penalties when the responsibility to remediate is probable and the amount of associated costs can be reasonably estimated. The timing of remediation accruals coincides with completion of a feasibility study or the commitment to a formal plan of action. Remediation liabilities are accrued based on estimates of known environmental exposure and are discounted when the estimated amounts are reasonably fixed and determinable. If recoveries of remediation costs from third parties are probable, a receivable is recorded and is discounted when the estimated amount is reasonably fixed and determinable.
Asset retirement obligations – The fair values of asset retirement obligations are recognized in the period in which they are incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. For Marathon, asset retirement obligations primarily relate to the abandonment of oil and gas producing facilities. Asset retirement obligations for such facilities include costs to dismantle and relocate or dispose of production platforms, gathering systems, wells and related structures and restoration costs of land and seabed, including those leased. Estimates of these costs are developed for each property based on the type of production structure, depth of water, reservoir characteristics, depth of the reservoir, market demand for equipment, currently available procedures and consultations with construction and engineering professionals. Asset retirement obligations have not been recognized for certain of Marathon's international oil and gas producing facilities as Marathon currently does not have a legal obligation associated with the retirement of those facilities.
Effective December 31, 2005, conditional asset retirement obligations for removal and disposal of fire-retardant material from certain refining facilities have been recognized. The amounts recorded for such obligations are based on the most probable current cost projections. Asset retirement obligations have not been recognized for the removal of materials and equipment from or the closure of certain refinery, pipeline and marketing assets because the fair value cannot be reasonably estimated due to an indeterminate settlement date of the obligation.
Current inflation rates and credit-adjusted-risk-free interest rates are used to estimate the fair values of asset retirement obligations. Depreciation of capitalized asset retirement costs and accretion of asset retirement obligations are recorded over time. Depreciation is generally determined on a units-of-production basis for oil and gas production facilities and on a straight-line basis for refining facilities, while accretion escalates over the lives of the assets.
Deferred taxes – Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases as reported in Marathon's filings with the respective taxing authorities. The realization of deferred tax assets is assessed periodically based on several interrelated factors. These factors include Marathon's expectation to generate sufficient future taxable income including future foreign source income, tax credits, operating loss carryforwards and management's intent regarding the permanent reinvestment of the income from certain foreign subsidiaries.
Pensions and other postretirement benefits – Marathon uses a December 31 measurement date for its pension and other postretirement benefit plans.
Stock-based compensation arrangements – Marathon adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," as a revision of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," as of January 1, 2006. Marathon had previously adopted the fair value method under SFAS No. 123 for grants made, modified or settled on or after January 1, 2003.
F-11
The fair value of stock options, stock options with tandem stock appreciation rights ("SARs") and stock-settled SARs ("stock option awards") is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The model employs various assumptions, based on management's best estimates at the time of grant, which impact the fair value calculated and ultimately, the expense that is recognized over the life of the stock option award. Of the required assumptions, the expected life of the stock option award and the expected volatility of Marathon's stock price have the most significant impact on the fair value calculation. Marathon has utilized historical data and analyzed current information which reasonably support these assumptions.
The fair value of Marathon's restricted stock awards and common stock units is determined based on the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment," ("SFAS No. 123(R)") on January 1, 2006, the fair values of Marathon's stock-based performance awards were determined in the same manner as restricted stock awards. Under SFAS No. 123(R), on a prospective basis, these awards are required to be valued utilizing an option pricing model. See Note 2 for further information regarding Marathon's adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). No stock-based performance awards have been granted since May 2004.
Effective January 1, 2006, Marathon's stock-based compensation expense is recognized based on management's best estimate of the awards that are expected to vest, using the straight-line attribution method for all service-based awards with a graded vesting feature. If actual forfeiture results are different than expected, adjustments to recognized compensation expense may be required in future periods. Unearned stock-based compensation is charged to stockholders' equity when restricted stock awards and stock-based performance awards are granted. Compensation expense is recognized over the balance of the vesting period and is adjusted if conditions of the restricted stock award or stock-based performance award are not met. Options with tandem SARs are classified as a liability and are remeasured at fair value each reporting period until settlement.
Prior to January 1, 2006, Marathon recorded stock-based compensation expense over the stated vesting period for stock option awards that are subject to specific vesting conditions and specify (1) that an employee vests in the award upon becoming "retirement eligible" or (2) that the employee will continue to vest in the award after retirement without providing any additional service. Under SFAS No. 123(R), from the January 1, 2006 date of adoption, such compensation cost is recognized immediately for awards granted to retirement-eligible employees or over the period from the grant date to the retirement eligibility date if retirement eligibility will be reached during the stated vesting period. See Note 26 for more information on stock-based compensation expense, stock option award, stock-based performance award and restricted stock award activity, valuation assumptions and other information required to be disclosed under SFAS No. 123(R).
Concentrations of credit risk – Marathon is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonpayment by counterparties, a significant portion of which are concentrated in energy-related industries. The creditworthiness of customers and other counterparties is subject to continuing review, including the use of master netting agreements, where appropriate. While no single customer accounts for more than 10 percent of annual revenues, Marathon has significant exposures to United States Steel arising from the transaction discussed in Note 3.
Reclassifications – Certain reclassifications of prior years' data have been made to conform to 2006 classifications.

F-14SFAS No. 158 – In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 158, "Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – An Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)." This standard requires an employer to: (1) recognize in its statement of financial position an asset for a plan's overfunded status or a liability for a plan's underfunded status; (2) measure a plan's assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer's fiscal year (with limited exceptions); and (3) recognize changes in the funded status of a plan in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. The funded status of a plan is measured as the difference between plan assets at fair value and the benefit obligation. For a pension plan, the benefit obligation is the projected benefit obligation and for any other postretirement plan it is the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. Marathon adopted SFAS No. 158 prospectively as of December 31, 2006 and has recognized the funded status of its plans in the consolidated balance sheet as of that date. The adoption of SFAS No. 158 had no impact on Marathon's measurement date as the Company has historically measured the plan assets and benefit obligations of its pension and other postretirement plans as of December 31. See Note 24 for additional disclosures regarding pensions and other postretirement plans required by SFAS No. 158.

SAB No. 108 – In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 108, "Financial Statements – Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements." SAB No. 108 addresses how a registrant should quantify the effect of an error in the financial statements for purposes of assessing materiality and requires that the effect be computed using both the current year income statement perspective ("rollover") and the year end balance sheet perspective ("iron curtain") methods for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. If a change in the method of quantifying errors is required under SAB No. 108, this represents a change in accounting policy; therefore, if the use of both methods results in a larger, material misstatement than the previously applied method, the financial statements must be adjusted. SAB No. 108 allows the cumulative effect of such adjustments to be made to opening retained earnings upon adoption. Marathon adopted SAB No. 108 for the year ended December 31, 2006, and adoption did not have an effect on Marathon's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
EITF Issue No. 06-03 – In June 2006, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the EITF regarding Issue No. 06-03, "How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is, Gross versus Net Presentation)." Included in the scope of this issue are any taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer. The EITF concluded that the presentation of such taxes on a gross basis (included in revenues and costs) or a net basis (excluded from revenues) is an accounting policy decision that should be disclosed pursuant to Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 22, "Disclosure of Accounting Policies." In addition, the amounts of such taxes reported on a gross basis must be disclosed if those tax amounts are significant. The policy disclosures required by this consensus are included in Note 1 under the heading "Consumer excise taxes" and the taxes reported on a gross basis are presented separately as consumer excise taxes in the consolidated statements of income.
Effective April 1, 2006, Marathon adopted the provisions of EITF Issue No. 04-13 prospectively. EITF Issue No. 04-13 changes the accounting for matching buy/sell arrangements that are entered into or modified on or after April 1, 2006 (except for those accounted for as derivative instruments, which are discussed below). In a typical matching buy/sell transaction, Marathon enters into a contract to sell a particular quantity and quality of crude oil or refined product at a specified location and date to a particular counterparty and simultaneously agrees to buy a particular quantity and quality of the same commodity at a specified location on the same or another specified date from the same counterparty. Prior to adoption of EITF Issue No. 04-13, Marathon recorded such matching buy/sell transactions in both revenues and cost of revenues as separate sale and purchase transactions. Upon adoption, these transactions are accounted for as exchanges of inventory.
The scope of EITF Issue No. 04-13 excludes matching buy/sell arrangements that are accounted for as derivative instruments. A portion of Marathon's matching buy/sell transactions are "nontraditional derivative instruments," which are discussed in Note 1. Although the accounting for nontraditional derivative instruments is outside the scope of EITF Issue No. 04-13, the conclusions reached in that consensus caused Marathon to reconsider the guidance in EITF Issue No. 03-11, "Reporting Realized Gains and Losses on Derivative Instruments That Are Subject to FASB Statement No. 133 and Not "Held for Trading Purposes" as Defined in Issue No. 02-3." As a result, effective for contracts entered into or modified on or after April 1, 2006, the effects of matching buy/sell arrangements accounted for as nontraditional derivative instruments are recognized on a net basis in net income and are classified as cost of revenues. Prior to this change, Marathon recorded these transactions in both revenues and cost of revenues as separate sale and purchase transactions. This change in accounting principle is being applied on a prospective basis because it is impracticable to apply the change on a retrospective basis.
F-13
Transactions arising from all matching buy/sell arrangements entered into before April 1, 2006 will continue to be reported as separate sale and purchase transactions.
The adoption of EITF Issue No. 04-13 and the change in the accounting for nontraditional derivative instruments had no effect on net income. The amounts of revenues and cost of revenues recognized after April 1, 2006 are less than the amounts that would have been recognized under previous accounting practices.
SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004) – In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," as a revision of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." This statement requires entities to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award on the grant date. That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. In addition, awards classified as liabilities are remeasured at fair value each reporting period. Marathon had previously adopted the fair value method under SFAS No. 123 for grants made, modified or settled on or after January 1, 2003.
SFAS No. 123(R) also requires a company to calculate the pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies recognized subsequent to adopting the statement. In November 2005, the FASB issued FSP No. 123R-3, "Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards," to provide an alternative transition election (the "short-cut method") to account for the tax effects of share-based payment awards to employees. Marathon elected the long-form method to determine its pool of excess tax benefits as of January 1, 2006.
Marathon adopted SFAS No. 123(R) as of January 1, 2006, for all awards granted, modified or cancelled after adoption and for the unvested portion of awards outstanding at January 1, 2006. At the date of adoption, SFAS No. 123(R) requires that an assumed forfeiture rate be applied to any unvested awards and that awards classified as liabilities be measured at fair value. Prior to adopting SFAS No. 123(R), Marathon recognized forfeitures as they occurred and applied the intrinsic value method to awards classified as liabilities. The adoption did not have a significant effect on Marathon's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
SFAS No. 151 – Effective January 1, 2006, Marathon adopted SFAS No. 151, "Inventory Costs – an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4." This statement requires that items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight and re-handling costs be recognized as a current-period charge. The adoption did not have a significant effect on Marathon's consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
SFAS No. 154 – Effective January 1, 2006, Marathon adopted SFAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections – A Replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3." SFAS No. 154 requires companies to recognize (1) voluntary changes in accounting principle and (2) changes required by a new accounting pronouncement, when the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions, retrospectively to prior periods' financial statements, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change.
FIN No. 47 – In March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 47, "Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143." This interpretation clarifies that an entity is required to recognize a liability for a legal obligation to perform asset retirement activities when the retirement is conditional on a future event if the liability's fair value can be reasonably estimated. If the liability's fair value cannot be reasonably estimated, then the entity must disclose (1) a description of the obligation, (2) the fact that a liability has not been recognized because the fair value cannot be reasonably estimated and (3) the reasons why the fair value cannot be reasonably estimated. FIN No. 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. Marathon adopted FIN No. 47 as of December 31, 2005. A charge of $19 million, net of taxes of $12 million, related to adopting FIN No. 47 was recognized as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in 2005. At the time of adoption, total assets increased $22 million and total liabilities increased $41 million.
The pro forma net income and net income per share effect as if FIN No. 47 had been applied during 2005 and 2004 is not significantly different than amounts reported. The following summarizes the total amount of the liability for asset retirement obligations as if FIN No. 47 had been applied during all periods presented. The pro forma impact of the adoption of FIN No. 47 on these unaudited pro forma liability amounts has been measured using the information, assumptions and interest rates used to measure the obligation recognized upon adoption of FIN No. 47.

SFAS No. 153 – Marathon adopted SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets – an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29," on a prospective basis as of July 1, 2005. This amendment eliminates the APB Opinion No. 29 exception for fair value recognition of nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with an exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance.
FSP No. FAS 19-1 – Effective January 1, 2005, Marathon adopted FSP No. FAS 19-1, "Accounting for Suspended Well Costs," which amended the guidance for suspended exploratory well costs in SFAS No. 19, "Financial Accounting and Reporting by Oil and Gas Producing Companies." SFAS No. 19 requires costs of drilling exploratory wells to be capitalized pending determination of whether the well has found proved reserves. When a classification of proved
F-14
reserves cannot yet be made, FSP No. FAS 19-1 allows exploratory well costs to continue to be capitalized when (1) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify completion as a producing well and (2) the enterprise is making sufficient progress assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project. Marathon's accounting policy for suspended exploratory well costs was in accordance with FSP No. FAS 19-1 prior to its adoption. FSP No. FAS 19-1 also requires certain disclosures to be made regarding capitalized exploratory well costs which are included in Note 15.
FSP No. FAS 109-1 – Effective December 21, 2004, Marathon adopted FSP No. FAS 109-1, "Application of FASB Statement No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes, to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004." FSP No. FAS 109-1 states the deduction, signed into law on October 22, 2004, of up to 9 percent (when fully phased-in) of the lesser of (1) "qualified production activities income," as defined in the Act, or (2) taxable income (after the deduction for the utilization of any net operating loss carryforwards) should be accounted for as a special deduction in accordance with SFAS No. 109. Accordingly, Marathon treats the deduction related to production activities income as a special deduction in the years taken.
FSP No. FAS 106-2 – Effective July 1, 2004, Marathon adopted FSP No. FAS 106-2, "Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003." FSP No. FAS 106-2 includes guidance on recognizing the effects of the new legislation under the various conditions surrounding the assessment of "actuarial equivalence." Marathon has determined, based on available regulatory guidance, that the postretirement plans' prescription drug benefits are actuarially equivalent to the Medicare "Part D" benefit under the Act. The subsidy-related reduction at July 1, 2004 in the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for the Marathon postretirement benefit plans was $93 million. The combined favorable pretax effect of the subsidy-related reduction for 2004 on the measurement of the net periodic postretirement benefit cost related to service cost, interest cost and actuarial gain amortization was $7 million.
F-15The Separation – Prior to December 31, 2001, Marathon had two outstanding classes of common stock: USX – Marathon Group common stock, which was intended to reflect the performance of Marathon's energy business, and USX – U.S. Steel Group common stock ("Steel Stock"), which was intended to reflect the performance of Marathon's steel business. On December 31, 2001, in a tax-free distribution to holders of Steel Stock, Marathon exchanged the common stock of United States Steel for all outstanding shares of Steel Stock on a one-for-one basis (the "Separation"). In connection with the Separation, Marathon and United States Steel entered into a number of agreements, including:
Financial Matters Agreement – Marathon and United States Steel have entered into a Financial Matters Agreement that provides for United States Steel's assumption of certain industrial revenue bonds and certain other financial obligations of Marathon. The Financial Matters Agreement also provides that, on or before the tenth anniversary of the Separation, United States Steel will provide for Marathon's discharge from any remaining liability under any of the assumed industrial revenue bonds.
Under the Financial Matters Agreement, United States Steel has all of the existing contractual rights under the leases assumed from Marathon, including all rights related to purchase options, prepayments or the grant or release of security interests. However, United States Steel has no right to increase amounts due under or lengthen the term of any of the assumed leases, other than extensions set forth in the terms of any of the assumed leases.
United States Steel is the sole general partner of Clairton 1314B Partnership, L.P., which owns certain cokemaking facilities formerly owned by United States Steel. Marathon has guaranteed to the limited partners all obligations of United States Steel under the partnership documents. The Financial Matters Agreement requires United States Steel to use commercially reasonable efforts to have Marathon released from its obligations under this guarantee. United States Steel may dissolve the partnership under certain circumstances, including if it is required to fund accumulated cash shortfalls of the partnership in excess of $150 million. In addition to the normal commitments of a general partner, United States Steel has indemnified the limited partners for certain income tax exposures.
The Financial Matters Agreement requires Marathon to use commercially reasonable efforts to assure compliance with all covenants and other obligations to avoid the occurrence of a default or the acceleration of payments on the assumed obligations.
United States Steel's obligations to Marathon under the Financial Matters Agreement are general unsecured obligations that rank equal to United States Steel's accounts payable and other general unsecured obligations. The Financial Matters Agreement does not contain any financial covenants and United States Steel is free to incur additional debt, grant mortgages on or security interests in its property and sell or transfer assets without Marathon's consent.
Tax Sharing Agreement – Marathon and United States Steel have entered into a Tax Sharing Agreement that reflects each party's rights and obligations relating to payments and refunds of income, sales, transfer and other taxes that are attributable to periods beginning prior to and including the Separation date and taxes resulting from transactions effected in connection with the Separation.
In 2006 and 2005, in accordance with the terms of the Tax Sharing Agreement, Marathon paid $35 million and $6 million to United States Steel in connection with the settlement with the Internal Revenue Service of the consolidated federal income tax returns of USX Corporation for the years 1995 through 2001. The final payment of $13 million to United States Steel related to U.S. federal tax returns under the Tax Sharing Agreement was made in January 2007.
F-15
F-16Amounts receivable from or payable to United States Steel arising from the Separation – As previously discussed, Marathon remains primarily obligated for certain financings for which United States Steel has assumed responsibility for repayment under the terms of the Separation. When United States Steel makes payments on the principal of these financings, both the receivable from United States Steel and the obligation are reduced.

MPC had a $190 million uncommitted revolving credit agreement with Ashland that terminated in March 2005. Interest paid to Ashland for borrowings under this agreement was less than $1 million in each of 2005 and 2004.
Cash of $234 million held in escrow for future capital contributions from SONAGAS to EGHoldings is classified as restricted cash and is included in investments and long-term receivables as of December 31, 2006.
Minority interest in MPC – On June 30, 2005, Marathon acquired the 38 percent ownership interest in Marathon Ashland Petroleum LLC ("MAP") previously held by Ashland. In addition, Marathon acquired a portion of Ashland's Valvoline Instant Oil Change business, its maleic anhydride business, its interest in LOOP LLC, which owns and operates the only U.S. deepwater oil port, and its interest in LOCAP LLC, which owns a crude oil pipeline. As a result of the transactions (the "Acquisition"), MAP is now wholly owned by Marathon and its name was changed to Marathon Petroleum Company LLC ("MPC") effective September 1, 2005. The Acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, as such, Marathon's results of operations include the results of the acquired businesses from June 30, 2005. The total consideration, including debt assumed, is as follows:

The goodwill arising from the purchase price allocation was $853 million, which was assigned to the RM&T segment. None of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes. Of the $112 million allocated to intangible assets, $49 million was allocated to retail marketing tradenames with indefinite lives.
The purchase price allocated to equity method investments is $230 million higher than the underlying net assets of the investees. This excess will be amortized over the expected useful lives of the underlying assets except for $144 million of the excess related to goodwill.
Libya re-entry – On December 29, 2005, Marathon, in conjunction with its partners in the former Oasis Group, entered into an agreement with the National Oil Corporation of Libya to return to its oil and natural gas exploration and production operations in the Waha concessions in Libya. Marathon holds a 16.33 percent interest in the Waha concessions and was required to cease operations there in 1986 to comply with U.S. government sanctions. Over time, Marathon had written off all its assets in Libya. The re-entry terms include a 25-year extension of the concessions to 2030 through 2034 and payments from Marathon of $520 million and $198 million, which were made in January and December 2006.
The primary reasons for the transaction and the principal factors that contributed to a purchase price that resulted in the recognition of goodwill include the fact that the re-entry allows Marathon to expand its exploration and production operations without many of the risks commonly associated with integrating a newly acquired business including having a trained workforce in place that has maintained operations and added to the hydrocarbon resource during the absence of Marathon and its partners. The transaction also could assist Marathon in identifying and participating in potential future projects in Libya.

On June 2, 2006, Marathon sold its Russian oil exploration and production businesses in the Khanty-Mansiysk region of western Siberia. Under the terms of the agreement, Marathon received $787 million for these businesses, plus preliminary working capital and other closing adjustments of $56 million, for a total transaction value of $843 million. Proceeds net of transaction costs and cash held by the Russian businesses at the transaction date totaled $832 million. A gain on the sale of $243 million ($342 million before income taxes) was reported in discontinued operations for 2006. Income taxes on this gain were reduced by the utilization of a capital loss carryforward as discussed in Note 11. Exploration and Production segment goodwill of $21 million was allocated to the Russian assets and reduced the reported gain. The final adjustment to the sales price is expected to be made in 2007 and could affect the reported gain.
The activities of the Russian businesses have been reported as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income and the consolidated statements of cash flows for all periods presented. Revenues applicable to discontinued operations were $173 million, $325 million and $133 million for 2006, 2005, and 2004. Pretax income from discontinued operations was $45 million and $61 million for 2006 and 2005. There was a pretax loss from discontinued operations of $45 million in 2004.

Effective January 1, 2006, Marathon revised its measure of segment income to include the effects of minority interests and income taxes related to the segments to facilitate comparison of segment results with Marathon's peers. In addition, the results of activities primarily associated with the marketing of the Company's equity natural gas production, which had been presented as part of the IG segment prior to 2006, are now included in the E&P segment as those activities are aligned with E&P operations. Segment information for all periods presented reflects these changes.
As discussed in Note 7, the Russian businesses that were sold in June 2006 have been accounted for as discontinued operations. Segment information for all presented periods excludes the amounts for these Russian operations.

Marathon is continuously undergoing examination of its federal income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service. Audits of the Company's 1998 through 2003 income tax returns have been completed and agreed upon by all parties. A $46 million refund was received from the 1998 through 2001 audit, $35 million of which was paid to United States Steel in accordance with the tax sharing agreement discussed in Note 3. The audit for tax years 2004 and 2005 commenced in May 2006. Marathon believes it has made adequate provision for federal income taxes and interest which may become payable for years not yet settled. Further, the Company is routinely involved in state and local income tax audits and foreign jurisdiction tax audits. Marathon believes all other audits will be resolved within the amounts paid and/or provided for these liabilities.
Pretax income from continuing operations included amounts attributable to foreign sources of $3.570 billion in 2006, $1.061 billion in 2005 and $579 million in 2004.
Undistributed income of certain consolidated foreign subsidiaries at December 31, 2006 amounted to $1.581 billion for which no deferred U.S. income tax provision has been made because Marathon intends to permanently reinvest such income in those foreign operations. If such income was not permanently reinvested, a tax expense of $554 million would have been incurred.
During 2003, Marathon implemented an organizational realignment plan that included streamlining Marathon's business processes and services, realigning reporting relationships to reduce costs across all organizations, consolidating organizations in Houston, Texas and reducing the workforce. During 2004, Marathon entered into two outsourcing agreements to achieve further business process improvements and cost reductions.
During 2004, Marathon recorded $43 million of costs as general and administrative expenses related to these business transformation programs. These charges included employee severance and benefit costs, relocation costs and net benefit plans settlement and curtailment losses.
There were minimal charges to expense during 2005. As of December 31, 2005, no accrual remained related to the business transformation programs. The following table sets forth the significant components and activity in the business transformation programs during 2004.

Exploratory well costs capitalized greater than one year after completion of drilling as of December 31, 2006 included $46 million for the Ozona prospect that was primarily incurred in 2001 and 2002, $17 million for the Flathead prospect that was primarily incurred in 2001 and $30 million related to wells in Equatorial Guinea (primarily Corona and Gardenia) that was primarily incurred in 2004. Both Ozona and Flathead are located in the Gulf of Mexico.
Technical evaluations are complete on the Flathead Prospect and commercial evaluations continued in 2006. The drilling of this prospect is delayed due to the shortage of available deepwater rigs. Marathon continues to pursue partnering opportunities with other oil and gas companies with deepwater rigs under contract that will ultimately result in a well being drilled by 2008.

The fair value of financial instruments classified as current assets or liabilities approximates carrying value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. The fair value of investments and long-term receivables was based on discounted cash flows or other specific instrument analysis. The fair value of long-term debt instruments was based on market prices where available or current borrowing rates available for financings with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of the receivables from United States Steel was estimated using market prices for United States Steel debt assuming the industrial revenue bonds are redeemed on or before the tenth anniversary of the Separation per the Financial Matters Agreement.

In 2006, Marathon entered into a loan agreement which provides for borrowings of up to $525 million from the Norwegian export credit agency based upon the amount of qualifying purchases by Marathon of goods and services from Norwegian suppliers. The loan agreement allows Marathon to select either a fixed or LIBOR-based floating interest rate at the time of the initial drawdown and a five-year or eight and one half-year repayment term. If Marathon elects to borrow under this agreement, the initial drawdown must occur in June 2007 with one subsequent drawdown allowed in December 2007.

On June 30, 2005, as a result of the Acquisition, MPC's defined benefit pension and other postretirement plan obligations were remeasured using current discount rates and plan assumptions. The discount rate was decreased to 5.25 percent from 5.75 percent. As part of the application of the purchase method of accounting, MPC recognized 38 percent of its unrecognized net transition gain, prior service costs and actuarial losses related to its defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. As a result, obligations related to the defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans increased by $264 million and $28 million.

F-37Description of the plans –The Marathon Oil Corporation 2003 Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Plan") authorizes the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, cash awards and performance awards to employees. The Plan also allows Marathon to provide equity compensation to its non-employee directors. No more than 20,000,000 shares of common stock may be issued under the Plan, and no more than 8,500,000 of those shares may be used for awards other than stock options or stock appreciation rights. Shares subject to awards that are forfeited, terminated, settled in cash, exchanged for other awards, tendered to satisfy the purchase price of an award or withheld to satisfy tax obligations or that expire unexercised or otherwise lapse become available for future grants. Shares issued as a result of awards granted under the Plan are generally funded out of common stock held in treasury, except to the extent there are insufficient treasury shares, in which case new common shares are issued.
The Plan replaced the 1990 Stock Plan, the Non-Officer Restricted Stock Plan, the Non-Employee Director Stock Plan, the deferred stock benefit provision of the Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors, the Senior Executive Officer Annual Incentive Compensation Plan and the Annual Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Prior Plans"). No new grants will be made from the Prior Plans. Any awards previously granted under the Prior Plans shall continue to vest and/or be exercisable in accordance with their original terms and conditions.
Stock-based awards under the Plan
Stock options – Marathon grants stock options under the Plan. Marathon's stock options represent the right to purchase shares of common stock at the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Through 2004, certain options were granted with a tandem stock appreciation right, which allows the recipient to instead elect to receive cash and/or common stock equal to the excess of the fair market value of shares of common stock, as determined in accordance with the Plan, over the option price of the shares. Most stock options granted under the Plan vest ratably over a three-year period and have a maximum term of ten years from the date they are granted.
F-35
Stock appreciation rights – Prior to 2005, Marathon granted SARs under the Plan. Similar to stock options, stock appreciation rights represent the right to receive a payment equal to the excess of the fair market value of shares of common stock on the date the right is exercised over the grant price. Certain SARs were granted as stock-settled SARs and others were granted in tandem with stock options. In general, SARs that have been granted under the Plan vest ratably over a three-year period and have a maximum term of ten years from the date they are granted.
Stock-based performance awards – In 2003 and 2004, the Compensation Committee granted stock-based performance awards to certain officers of Marathon and its consolidated subsidiaries under the Plan. Beginning in 2005, Marathon discontinued granting stock-based performance awards and instead grants cash-settled performance units to officers. The stock-based performance awards represent shares of common stock that are subject to forfeiture provisions and restrictions on transfer. Those restrictions may be removed if certain pre-established performance measures are met. The stock-based performance awards granted under the Plan will vest at the end of a 36-month performance period to the extent that the performance targets are achieved and the recipient is employed by Marathon on that date. Additional shares could be granted at the end of this performance period should performance exceed the targets. Prior to vesting, the recipients have the right to vote and receive dividends on the target number of shares awarded. However, the shares are not transferable until after they vest.
Restricted stock –Marathon grants restricted stock and restricted stock units under the Plan. In 2005, the Compensation Committee began granting time-based restricted stock to officers as part of their annual long-term incentive package. The restricted stock awards to officers vest three years from the date of grant, contingent on the recipient's continued employment. Marathon also grants restricted stock to certain non-officer employees and restricted stock units to certain international non-officer employees (together with the restricted stock granted to officers above, "restricted stock awards") based on their performance within certain guidelines and for retention purposes. The restricted stock awards to non-officers generally vest in one-third increments over a three-year period, contingent on the recipient's continued employment. Prior to vesting, all restricted stock recipients have the right to vote such stock and receive dividends thereon. The non-vested shares are not transferable and are held by the Company's transfer agent.
Common stock units –Marathon maintains an equity compensation program for its non-employee directors under the Plan. All non-employee directors other than the Chairman receive annual grants of common stock units under the Plan and they are required to hold those units until they leave the Board of Directors. When dividends are paid on Marathon common stock, directors receive dividend equivalents in the form of additional common stock units. Prior to January 1, 2006, non-employee directors had the opportunity to receive a matching grant of up to 1,000 shares of common stock if they purchased an equivalent number of shares within 60 days of joining the Board.
Stock-based compensation expense – Total employee stock-based compensation expense was $83 million, $111 million and $61 million in 2006, 2005 and 2004. The total related income tax benefits were $31 million, $39 million and $22 million. In 2006, cash received upon exercise of stock option awards was $50 million. Tax benefits realized for deductions during 2006 that were in excess of the stock-based compensation expense recorded for options exercised and other stock-based awards vested during the period totaled $36 million. Cash settlements of stock option awards totaled $3 million in 2006.
Stock option awards granted – During 2006, 2005 and 2004, Marathon granted stock option awards to both officer and non-officer employees. The weighted average grant date fair values of these awards were based on the following Black-Scholes assumptions:

On January 29, 2006, Marathon's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $2 billion of common stock. As of December 31, 2006, the Company had acquired 20.7 million common shares at a cost of $1.698 billion. On January 28, 2007, Marathon's Board of Directors authorized an extension of the share repurchase program by an additional $500 million. Purchases under the program may be in either open market transactions, including block purchases, or in privately negotiated transactions. The Company will use cash on hand, cash generated from operations or cash from available borrowings to acquire shares. This program may be changed based upon our financial condition or changes in market conditions and is subject to termination prior to completion.
Marathon leases a wide variety of facilities and equipment under operating leases, including land and building space, office equipment, production facilities and transportation equipment. Most long-term leases include renewal options and, in certain leases, purchase options. Future minimum commitments for capital lease obligations (including sale-leasebacks accounted for as financings) and for operating lease obligations having remaining noncancelable lease terms in excess of one year are as follows:

In connection with past sales of various plants and operations, Marathon assigned and the purchasers assumed certain leases of major equipment used in the divested plants and operations of United States Steel. In the event of a default by any of the purchasers, United States Steel has assumed these obligations; however, Marathon remains primarily obligated for payments under these leases. Minimum lease payments under these operating lease obligations of $31 million have been included above and an equal amount has been reported as sublease rentals.
Of the $163 million present value of net minimum capital lease payments, $104 million was related to obligations assumed by United States Steel under the Financial Matters Agreement. Of the $851 million total minimum operating lease payments, $3 million was assumed by United States Steel under the Financial Matters Agreement.

In connection with the formation of Equatorial Guinea LNG Holdings Limited, GEPetrol was given certain contractual rights that gave GEPetrol the option to purchase and resell a 13 percent interest in EGHoldings held by Marathon to a third party. On July 25, 2005, GEPetrol exercised these rights and reimbursed Marathon for its actual costs incurred up to the date of closing, plus an additional specified rate of return. Marathon and GEPetrol entered into agreements under which Mitsui and a subsidiary of Marubeni acquired 8.5 percent and 6.5 percent interests in EGHoldings. As part of these agreements, Marathon sold a 2 percent interest in EGHoldings to Mitsui for its actual costs incurred up to the date of closing, plus a specified rate of return, as well as a premium and future consideration based upon the performance of EGHoldings. Following the transaction, Marathon held a 60 percent interest in EGHoldings, GEPetrol held a 25 percent interest and Mitsui and Marubeni held the remaining interests.
During 2005, Marathon received net proceeds of $163 million in connection with the transactions and recorded a gain, which is included in other income.
F-39Marathon is the subject of, or party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. Certain of these matters are discussed below. The ultimate resolution of these contingencies could, individually or in the aggregate, be material to Marathon's consolidated financial statements. However, management believes that Marathon will remain a viable and competitive enterprise even though it is possible that these contingencies could be resolved unfavorably.
Environmental matters –Marathon is subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to the environment. These laws generally provide for control of pollutants released into the environment and require responsible parties to undertake remediation of hazardous waste disposal sites. Penalties may be imposed for noncompliance. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, accrued liabilities for remediation totaled $101 million and $103 million. It is not presently possible to estimate the ultimate amount of all remediation costs that might be incurred or the penalties that may be imposed. Receivables for recoverable costs from certain states, under programs to assist companies in cleanup efforts related to underground storage tanks at retail marketing outlets, were $66 million and $68 million at December 31, 2006 and 2005.
On May 11, 2001, MPC entered into a consent decree with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency which commits it to complete certain agreed upon environmental projects over an eight-year period primarily aimed at reducing air emissions at its seven refineries. The court approved this consent decree on August 28, 2001. The total one-time expenditures for these environmental projects are estimated to be approximately $425 million over the eight-year period, with about $365 million incurred through December 31, 2006. In addition, MPC has been working on certain agreed upon supplemental environmental projects as part of this settlement of an enforcement action for alleged CAA violations and these have been substantially completed.

September 1, 2008, Pilot will have the right to sell its interest in PTC to MPC for an amount of cash and/or Marathon, MPC or Ashland equity securities equal to the product of 90 percent (95 percent if paid in securities) of the fair market value of PTC at the time multiplied by Pilot's percentage interest in PTC. At any time after September 1, 2011, under certain conditions, MPC will have the right to purchase Pilot's interest in PTC for an amount of cash and/or Marathon, MPC or Ashland equity securities equal to the product of 105 percent (110 percent if paid in securities) of the fair market value of PTC at the time multiplied by Pilot's percentage interest in PTC. Under the Agreement, MPC would determine the form of consideration to be paid upon exercise of the rights.
F-41In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. It requires that unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected be recorded in net income. The statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. For Marathon, SFAS No. 159 will be effective January 1, 2008, and retrospective application is not permitted. Should Marathon elect to apply the fair value option to any eligible items that exist at January 1, 2008, the effect of the first remeasurement to fair value would be reported as a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Marathon is currently evaluating the provisions of this statement.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but may require some entities to change their measurement practices. For Marathon, SFAS No. 157 will be effective January 1, 2008, with early application permitted. Marathon is currently evaluating the provisions of this statement.
In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position ("FSP") No. AUG AIR-1, "Accounting for Planned Major Maintenance Activities." This FSP prohibits the use of the accrue-in-advance method of accounting for planned major maintenance activities in annual and interim financial reporting periods. Marathon expenses such costs in the same annual period as incurred; however, estimated annual major maintenance costs are recognized as expense throughout the year on a pro rata basis. As such, adoption of FSP No. AUG AIR-1 will have no impact on Marathon's annual consolidated financial statements. Marathon is required to adopt the FSP effective January 1, 2007. Marathon does not believe the provisions of FSP No. AUG AIR-1 will have a significant impact on its interim consolidated financial statements.
In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109." FIN No. 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The new standard also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, transition and disclosure. For Marathon, the provisions of FIN No. 48 are effective January 1, 2007. Marathon does not believe adoption of this statement will have a significant effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets – An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140." This statement amends SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. Marathon is required to adopt SFAS No. 156 effective January 1, 2007. Marathon does not expect adoption of this statement to have a significant effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments – An Amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140." SFAS No. 155 simplifies the accounting for certain hybrid financial instruments, eliminates the interim FASB guidance which provides that beneficial interests in securitized financial assets are not subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," and eliminates the restriction on the passive derivative instruments that a qualifying special-purpose entity may hold. For Marathon, SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued on or after January 1, 2007. Marathon does not expect adoption of this statement to have a significant effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Estimates of the proved reserves have been prepared by internal assetin-house teams includingof reservoir engineers and geoscience professionals. Reserve estimates are periodically reviewed by Marathon’sMarathon's Corporate Reserves groupGroup to assure that rigorous professional standards and the reserves definitions prescribed by the U. S.U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)("SEC") are consistently applied throughout the company.
Proved reserves are the estimated quantities of oil and natural gas that geologic and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Estimates of proved reserves may change, either positively or negatively, as additional information becomes available and as contractual, economic and political conditions change.
Marathon's net proved reserve estimates have been adjusted as necessary to considerreflect all contractual agreements, royalty obligations and interests owned by others at the time of the estimate. Only reserves that are estimated to be recovered during the term of the current contract have been included in the proved reserve estimate unless there is a clear and consistent history of contract extension. Reserves from properties governed by production sharing contracts have been calculated using the “economic interest”"economic interest" method prescribed by the SEC. Reserves that are not currently considered proved, such as those that may result from extensions of currently proved areas or that may result from applying secondary or tertiary recovery processes not yet tested and determined to be economic are excluded. Purchased natural gas utilized in reservoir management and subsequently resold is also excluded. Marathon does not have any quantities of oil and gas reserves subject to long-term supply agreements with foreign governments or authorities in which Marathon acts as producer.
Proved developed reserves are the quantities of oil and gas expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. In some cases, proved undeveloped reserves may require substantial new investments in additional wells and related facilities. Production volumes shown are sales volumes, net of any products consumed during production activities.

Future cash inflowsare computed by applying year-end prices of oil and natural gas relating to Marathon’sMarathon's proved reserves to the year-end quantities of those reserves. Future price changes are considered only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements in existence at year-end.
The assumptions used to compute the proved reserve valuation do not necessarily reflect Marathon’sMarathon's expectations of actual revenues to be derived from those reserves or their present worth. Assigning monetary values to the estimated quantities of reserves, described on the preceding page, does not reduce the subjective and ever-changing nature of such reserve estimates.
Additional subjectivity occurs when determining present values because the rate of producing the reserves must be estimated. In addition to uncertainties inherent in predicting the future, variations from the expected production rate also could result directly or indirectly from factors outside of Marathon’sMarathon's control, such as unintentional delays in development, environmental concerns, changes in prices or regulatory controls.
The reserve valuation assumes that all reserves will be disposed of by production. However, if reserves are sold in place or subjected to participation by foreign governments, additional economic considerations could also could affect the amount of cash eventually realized.
Future development and production, transportation and administrative costs and development costs are computed by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved oil and gas reserves at the end of the year, based on year-end costs and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.
Future income tax expensesare computed by applying the appropriate year-end statutory tax rates, with consideration of future tax rates already legislated, to the future pretax net cash flows relating to Marathon’sMarathon's proved oil and gas reserves. Oil and gas related tax credits and allowances are recognized.
Discountwas derived by using a discount rate of 10 percent annually.
