Reserves: EOG's total company net proved reserves were 1,811 MMBoe at December 31, 2012. Total company net proved developed reserves decreased 2 percent, and total North American net proved developed reserves were approximately flat with the previous year, excluding the impact of property dispositions. Total company net proved undeveloped reserves decreased 15 percent year over year due to low natural gas prices in 2012 that caused essentially all of the previously booked proved undeveloped reserves in EOG's North American dry gas properties to be written off. Total proved liquids reserves increased 37 percent year-over-year, comprising 56 percent of total company proved reserves at December 31, 2012.
