Financial Update

The Company's revenues are detailed in the following table:

Quarter Ended: Year Ended:

12/31/2013 9/30/2013 12/31/2013 12/31/2012

Revenues ($ in thousands)

Oil $ 295,903 $ 273,663 $ 1,028,089 $ 641,925

Bulk oil sale - - 5,777 1,521

Natural gas 18,064 13,289 50,546 27,045

Well services (OWS) 17,579 17,090 51,845 16,177

Midstream (OMS) 2,069 1,456 5,742 -

Total revenues $ 333,615 $ 305,498 $ 1,141,999 $ 686,668

Total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2013 increased by 9% compared

to the third quarter of 2013, primarily due to higher production as a

result of the Company's well completions and its acquisition of

certain properties in its West Williston project area in the fourth

quarter of 2013.

The Company's operating expenses are detailed in the following table:

Quarter Ended: Year Ended:

12/31/2013 9/30/2013 12/31/2013 12/31/2012

Operating expenses ($ in thousands):

Lease operating expenses $ 35,048 $ 21,831 $ 94,634 $ 54,924

Well services (OWS) 10,228 9,929 29,259 11,774

Midstream (OMS) 608 390 1,454 -

Marketing, transportation and gathering expenses(1) 5,286 5,173 18,777 8,566

Bulk oil purchase - - 5,776 1,383

Non-cash valuation charge 782 515 1,371 (692)

Select operating expenses $ 51,952 $ 37,838 $ 151,271 $ 75,955

Operating expenses ($ per Boe):

Lease operating expenses $ 9.05 $ 7.18 $ 7.65 $ 6.68

Marketing, transportation and gathering expenses(1) 1.36 1.70 1.52 1.04

(1) Excludes bulk oil purchase and non-cash valuation charges.

The sequential quarter-over-quarter increase in lease operating

expenses per barrel of oil equivalent ("Boe") was primarily due to

additional workover costs, which include costs to protect producing

wells from wells that are being completed, coupled with higher cost

structures on wells acquired by the Company in the fourth quarter of

2013.

Marketing, transportation and gathering expenses, excluding non-cash

valuation charges, was $5.3 million. The 20% sequential

quarter-over-quarter decrease per Boe was primarily due to wells

acquired in the fourth quarter of 2013 that were not connected to

third-party infrastructure.

Production taxes for the fourth quarter of 2013 totaled $30.2 million,

or 9.6% of oil and gas revenues, compared to 9.4% of oil and gas

revenues for the third quarter of 2013. The sequential

quarter-over-quarter increase in production taxes as a percentage of

oil and gas revenues was due to the acquisition of wells in North

Dakota, which imposes a higher production tax rate compared to

Montana, which has lower incentivized production tax rates on certain

new wells.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the fourth quarter of

2013 totaled $26.14 per Boe, compared to $23.91 per Boe in the third

quarter of 2013. The increase per Boe was primarily due to costs

related to the acquisition of certain properties in the Company's West

Williston project area.

General and administrative ("G&A") expenses for the fourth quarter of

2013 totaled $28.1 million compared to $16.7 million in the third

quarter of 2013. This increase was primarily due to the impact of the

Company's organizational growth on employee compensation, additional

end-of-year compensation expenses and acquisition-related costs. These

increases were coupled with lower Oasis Well Services ("OWS") activity

due to inclement weather at the end of the fourth quarter of 2013,

which caused OWS G&A expenses to be $3.0 million higher in the fourth

quarter of 2013 as compared to the third quarter of 2013.

The Company's derivative activities are detailed in the following

table:

Quarter Ended: Year Ended:

12/31/2013 9/30/2013 12/31/2013 12/31/2012

Derivative activities(1) ($ in thousands)

Change in fair value of derivative instruments 9,404 (31,750) (27,299) 27,619

Net gain (loss) on derivative instruments $ 6,406 $ (39,817) $ (35,432) $ 34,164

(1) The Company's derivative instruments do not qualify for and were not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $225.4 million, an

increase of $61.9 million, or 38%, over the fourth quarter of 2012 of

$163.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2013 was $821.9

million, an increase of $309.6 million, or 60%, over the full year

2012 of $512.3 million.

The Company reported net income of $54.5 million in the fourth quarter

of 2013 compared to $42.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2012. For

the full year 2013, Oasis reported net income of $228.0 million

compared to $153.4 million for the full year 2012. Excluding certain

non-cash items and their tax effect in the fourth quarters of 2013 and

2012, Adjusted Net Income (non-GAAP) was $49.7 million, or $0.52 per

diluted share, and $45.2 million, or $0.49 per diluted share,

respectively. Excluding certain non-cash items and their tax effect

for the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2012, Adjusted Net Income

(non-GAAP) was $247.0 million, or $2.64 per diluted share, and $138.4

million, or $1.50 per diluted share, respectively. For a definition of

Adjusted Net Income and a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted Net

Income, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.

$855.8 million of drilling and completion (including production-related equipment) CapEx for operated and non-operated wells, including savings from services provided by OWS and Oasis Midstream Services ("OMS"); $26.5 million for maintaining and expanding the Company's leasehold position; $22.3 million for constructing infrastructure to support production in the Company's core project areas, primarily related to salt water disposal systems; $10.2 million for field facilities; and $1.9 million for micro-seismic work, purchase of seismic data and other test work.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is

used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated

financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders

and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings

before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion,

amortization, exploration expenses and other similar non-cash charges.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income or cash flows as

determined by United States generally accepted accounting principles,

or GAAP.

The following tables present a reconciliation of the non-GAAP

financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA to the GAAP financial measures of

net income and net cash provided by operating activities,

respectively.

Adjusted Net Income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that

is used by management and external users of the Company's consolidated

financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders

and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted Net Income as net

income after adjusting first for (1) the impact of non-cash items,

including changes in fair value of derivative instruments, impairment

of oil and gas properties and other similar non-cash charges, and then

(2) the non-cash items' impact on taxes based on the Company's

effective tax rates in the same period. Adjusted Net Income is not a

measure of net income as determined by GAAP.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the GAAP financial

measure of net income to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted

Net Income for the periods presented.
