ConocoPhillips (COP) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

You're looking at how ConocoPhillips (COP) is maximizing returns from its existing assets and markets, especially after the Marathon Oil acquisition. This is pure Market Penetration-getting more out of what you already own and operate. It's about efficiency and scale, not finding new customers or new oil fields.

The integration of Marathon Oil is central to this strategy, driving significant financial targets for ConocoPhillips.

• Capture over $1 billion in run-rate synergies from the Marathon Oil acquisition by year-end 2025.
• Drive down adjusted operating costs to a revised guidance of $10.6 billion for the full year, down from the earlier projection of $10.7 billion to $10.9 billion.
• Leverage scale and technology to realize an additional $1 billion-plus in company-wide cost reductions and margin enhancements on a run-rate basis by the end of 2026.

The focus on the Lower 48 assets, now bolstered by the acquisition, is a key operational lever for this penetration strategy.

ConocoPhillips is actively managing capital spending while aiming for production targets. The plan for the Lower 48 specifically involves a significant capital efficiency push.

The company plans to reduce capital spending in the Lower 48 by over 15% year-over-year on a pro forma basis for 2025, while still targeting low single-digit production growth.

To show you the current operational base supporting this, here's a look at the Lower 48 production reported for the third quarter of 2025:

This operational output is geared toward meeting the overall corporate production goal. ConocoPhillips has raised its full-year 2025 production guidance to 2.375 MMBOED.

The entire effort-synergies, cost control, and optimized spending-is designed to maximize cash flow from this existing asset base. For instance, the company expects to deliver an incremental $1 billion improvement in its annual free cash flow each year from 2026 through 2028, partly fueled by these ongoing cost savings.

Here's a quick look at the key 2025 guidance metrics driving this strategy:

• Full-Year 2025 Production Guidance: 2.375 MMBOED.
• Revised Full-Year 2025 Adjusted Operating Cost Guidance: $10.6 billion.
• Lower 48 Capital Spending Reduction Target (vs. 2024): Over 15%.

Finance: draft 13-week cash view by Friday.

ConocoPhillips (COP) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

You're looking at how ConocoPhillips (COP) is pushing its existing products-natural gas and crude oil-into new geographic or customer segments. This Market Development thrust is heavily focused on globalizing its natural gas sales, especially through massive liquefaction capacity on the U.S. Gulf Coast, and continuing to develop mature North Sea assets for European markets.

Expand Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) sales by advancing the Port Arthur LNG project

ConocoPhillips is cementing its role as a major global LNG supplier by expanding its commitment at the Port Arthur LNG project in Jefferson County, Texas. The company has already secured 5 Million Metric Tons per Annum (MMTPA) of offtake capacity for 20 years from Phase 1, which is under construction and expected to start up in 2027 and 2028. More recently, ConocoPhillips signed a definitive 20-year agreement to purchase an additional 4 MTPA from Sempra Infrastructure's Port Arthur LNG Phase 2 project. The Final Investment Decision (FID) for Phase 2 is anticipated before the end of 2025. If both phases proceed as planned, the facility could reach an aggregate capacity of 26 MMTPA annually.

Secure new long-term offtake agreements globally for 10M-15M metric tons/year of LNG

The drive for new global markets is clearly quantified by ConocoPhillips' stated ambition to grow its controlled portfolio supply to between 10 and 15 MTPA. The current US Gulf Coast offtake portfolio alone brings the company close to the lower end of this target. Also, ConocoPhillips concluded additional sales agreements in Asia, which are also expected to begin in 2028. Furthermore, the company has secured regasification capacity in Europe, signing an agreement at the Dunkerque LNG terminal in France for approximately 1.5 MTPA, starting in 2028. This is how you build a flexible supply network.

Here's a look at the scale of the current US LNG offtake portfolio supporting this market development:

Increase oil and gas production from the Willow project in Alaska to serve Pacific markets

The Willow project on the North Slope of Alaska is a major domestic supply source, which by extension supports global market diversification. The project is estimated to produce 600 million barrels of crude over its anticipated 30-year operational lifespan. Peak production is estimated at 180,000 barrels of oil per day. First oil is anticipated in early 2029. The total investment for the project has been revised to between $8.5 billion and $9.0 billion. The project is expected to become cash flow positive to the producer by FY 2033.

Target new international buyers for natural gas, leveraging the Coastal Bend LNG facility

ConocoPhillips is advancing its technology licensing to support new market entrants, such as Coastal Bend LNG, which selected the company's Optimized Cascade Process liquefaction technology. The planned Coastal Bend facility is designed with up to five 4.5 mtpa liquefaction trains, suggesting a total capacity of 22.5 million tons per annum (mtpa). This technology is noted to yield up to 96% LNG facility thermal efficiency. Coastal Bend LNG expects to pre-file its Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) permits during 2025.

Advance the Previously Produced Fields (PPF) development in Norwegian waters for European supply

For the European market, ConocoPhillips Skandinavia AS is advancing the Previously Produced Fields (PPF) development in Norwegian waters. In May 2025, ConocoPhillips awarded a Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED) study contract for the PPF development. The associated contract for subsea structures, umbilicals, risers, and flowlines (SURF) could be a large award, defined as between $300 million and $500 million, if the project passes FID. Offshore installation activities are scheduled between 2026 to 2029. This effort builds on existing European production infrastructure, such as the Eldfisk North project, which started production in spring 2024.

Key development activities in the Greater Ekofisk Area include:

• Eldfisk North production started in spring 2024.
• Tommeliten A production commenced in autumn 2023.
• The Tor field re-opened following redevelopment in 2020.
• Ekofisk license extensions are approved until 2048.

ConocoPhillips (COP) - Ansoff Matrix: Product Development

Advance the Surmont Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) initiative in Canada to reduce operational emissions.

ConocoPhillips funded the Surmont acquisition with a $2.7bn three-tranche bond deal in August 2023. In the fourth quarter of 2023, bitumen production from Surmont represented 6.6% of total production. The company has a commitment of $1.5 billion to low-carbon investments through 2030.

Explore and implement electrification efforts at existing production sites to lower Scope 1 and 2 emissions.

• Methane emissions intensity reduced by 70% since 2015.
• Achieved a 13% reduction in methane intensity in 2021 from a 2019 baseline, exceeding the 2025 goal of 10%.
• Committed to achieving zero routine flaring by 2025.
• Strengthened GHG intensity reduction target to 40-50% by 2030 from a 2016 baseline.

Develop and commercialize proprietary technologies to improve reservoir recovery in core assets.

The company's Optimized Cascade® LNG liquefaction technology has been licensed for use in 28 LNG trains globally. Well drilling efficiency in the Lower 48 segment increased by 40% between 2019 and 2024.

Invest in technology to extract CO2 from seawater, like the March 2025 investment in BlueShift.

ConocoPhillips participated in a $2.1 million pre-seed funding round for BlueShift in March 2025.

Utilize existing natural gas infrastructure to produce lower-carbon fuels for current industrial customers.

The company has a stated goal to achieve 100,000 tons per year of hydrogen production capacity by 2030, supported by a direct investment of $275 million in hydrogen infrastructure, targeting an initial capacity of 25,000 metric tons annually.

Here's the quick math on the 2025 financial context for capital deployment:

ConocoPhillips (COP) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

You're looking at how ConocoPhillips (COP) is putting capital to work outside its traditional upstream business, which is the core of the Diversification quadrant in the Ansoff Matrix. This is about building new revenue streams in lower-carbon energy, using existing competencies as a bridge. Honestly, it's a calculated pivot, not a full abandonment of the core business.

The focus here is heavily on hydrogen and power. For instance, ConocoPhillips has made a specific commitment of $275 million to build large-scale blue hydrogen production infrastructure on the US Gulf Coast. This isn't just a study; it's hard capital allocation. This investment is tied directly to a strategic goal to achieve 100,000 tons per year of hydrogen production capacity by 2030. To give you a sense of scale, the related partnership for a low-carbon ammonia export facility with JERA and Uniper was initially scoped for an initial production capacity of 2 MTPA (million metric tons per year) of low-carbon ammonia, which is a key carrier for hydrogen exports.

Beyond hydrogen, ConocoPhillips is actively exploring other avenues to deploy capital into new energy ventures. You see them developing low-carbon power projects, specifically looking at enhanced geothermal system opportunities. This shows they are casting a wide net for baseload, lower-emission power sources.

The financial backing for these diversification efforts comes from a dedicated pool of capital. ConocoPhillips has committed $1.5 billion to low-carbon investments through 2030. This commitment is being allocated across these new energy ventures. To see how this compares to recent spending, here's a quick look at the capital directed toward Scope 1 and 2 emissions reductions and low-carbon opportunities in prior years, which gives you context for the scale of the $1.5 billion target.

This allocation strategy is about building capability in areas adjacent to their existing skill sets, like gas processing and large-scale project execution. The move into hydrogen and ammonia export facilities leverages their existing infrastructure knowledge on the US Gulf Coast.

The specific actions supporting this diversification strategy include:

• Commitment of $275 million for blue hydrogen infrastructure build-out.
• Targeting 100,000 tons per year of hydrogen production capacity by 2030.
• Partnering with JERA and Uniper to develop a low-carbon ammonia export facility.
• Evaluating low-carbon power projects, including enhanced geothermal systems.
• Allocating a portion of the total $1.5 billion low-carbon investment commitment through 2030.

If onboarding these new ventures takes longer than expected, the timeline for seeing returns from this capital will definitely shift.
