TotalEnergies SE (TTE - Free Report) has reported fourth-quarter 2022 operating earnings of $2.97 (€2.93) per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.93 per share by 1.4%.
The bottom line improved 17% from the year-ago figure of $2.55 (€2.19) per share. The year-over-year improvement was due to an increase in commodity prices.

Production
Fourth-quarter hydrocarbon production averaged 2,812 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (kboe/d), down 1% year over year. The decline was due to the higher planned maintenance, the natural decline of fields, price effects, the withdrawal from Myanmar, the expiration of the Qatargas 1 operating license and security-related production cuts in Libya and Nigeria.
For the reported quarter, liquids production averaged 1,570 thousand barrels per day, up 4% from the year-ago period.
Quarterly gas production was 6,681 thousand cubic feet per day, down 9% year over year due to lower gas output from Africa, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and North Africa and Europe and Central Asia.
