Read MoreHide Full Article
TotalEnergies SE (TTE - Free Report) reported first-quarter 2024 operating earnings of $2.14 (€1.97) per share, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.96 by 9.2%.
The bottom line declined 18% from the year-ago figure of $2.61 (€2.43). The year-over-year decline was due to a fall in natural gas prices.

Production
In the first quarter, hydrocarbon production averaged 2,461 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day, down 2% year over year. The decline was due to the disposal of Canadian oil sands and natural decrease of the fields.
For the reported quarter, liquid production averaged 1,482 thousand barrels per day, down 5% year over year.
Quarterly gas production was 5,249 thousand cubic feet per day, up 1% year over year due to higher gas output from Africa, the Americas, and the Middle East and North Africa region.
