At the time, Isaacson said, “Over the last three years of oil price volatility, ConocoPhillips Alaska has incurred $4.8 billion in taxes and royalties, while still investing $3.1 billion in capital in the state since January 1, 2020. Our net income was $3 billion during that same time.”
The first-quarter earnings statement ended, in typical fashion, by noting that ConocoPhillips Alaska has incurred more than $43 billion in taxes and royalties to the State of Alaska and the federal government since 2007. Of that amount, about $33 billion went directly to the state. In that same period, ConocoPhillips Alaska’s earnings were approximately $25 billion.
