The world has a massive dual challenge – we will the Bakken, the deepwater Gulf of Mexico and Southeast Asia. require approximately 20% more energy globally by 2050 and over the same period we need to reach net zero emissions. At the end of last year, the International Energy Agency (IEA) published its latest World Energy Outlook that offers three scenarios for addressing this dual challenge. In all three IEA scenarios, the world is facing a structural supply deficit in energy, and significantly more investment is required both in oil and gas and in renewable energy. As our portfolio becomes increasingly free cash flow positive, we are committed to returning up to 75% of our annual free cash flow to shareholders, with the remainder going to strengthen the balance sheet by increasing our cash position or further reducing our debt to ensure that we can fund our high return investment opportunities through the cycle. Executing this strategy in 2022, we decreased our debt by $500 million, increased our regular quarterly dividend by 50% According to the IEA, a reasonable estimate for the global and completed a $650 million stock repurchase program. oil and gas investment required to meet demand growth is approximately $500 billion each year for the next 10 years, as compared with approximately $300 billion to $400 billion invested annually in the last 5 years. In terms of renewable energy, an annual investment of between $3 trillion and $4 trillion is needed each year for the next 10 years – significantly more than last year’s investment of approximately $1.2 trillion. Business leaders and government officials must have a sober understanding of this investment challenge, especially since capital is becoming more scarce and more expensive in the current financial environment. The energy transition is going to take a long time, cost a lot of money and require many technologies that do not exist today. To have an orderly energy transition, policymakers must have climate literacy, energy literacy and economic literacy. In a world that will need affordable and secure oil and gas resources for decades to come, Hess is in a strong position. Our strategy has been and continues to be to grow our resource base, deliver a low cost of supply and generate industry leading cash flow growth – and at the same time maintain our industry leadership in environmental, social and governance performance and disclosure. Our successful execution of this strategy has uniquely positioned our company to deliver significant value to shareholders for years to come, both by growing intrinsic value and by growing cash returns. In terms of cash flow growth, we have an industry leading rate of change and duration story that provides a unique value proposition. Our company is positioned to grow our cash flow by approximately 25% annually between 2022 and 2027 based on a Brent oil price of $75 per barrel – more than twice as fast as our top line growth. 2 2022 ANNUAL REPORT Looking ahead, we plan to continue increasing our regular dividend to a level that is attractive to income-oriented investors, but sustainable in a low oil price environment. As our free cash flow generation steadily increases in future years, share repurchases are expected to represent a growing proportion of our return of capital. Key to our strategy is Guyana, one of the largest oil provinces discovered in the world over the last 20 years. On the Stabroek Block, where Hess has a 30% interest and ExxonMobil is the operator, we have had more than 30 discoveries, including nine in 2022, underpinning a gross discovered recoverable resource estimate of more than 11 billion barrels of oil equivalent. Our four sanctioned oil developments on the block have world class economics with a Brent breakeven oil price of between $25 and $35 per barrel. Combined gross production from our first two offshore developments at the Liza Field averaged more than 360,000 barrels of oil per day in the fourth quarter of 2022, and our third development remains on schedule for startup by the end of this year. We currently have line of sight to six floating production, storage and offloading vessels (FPSOs) in 2027 with a gross production capacity of more than 1.2 million barrels of oil per day and the potential for up to 10 FPSOs to develop the discovered resources on the block. The Bakken, our largest operated asset, remains an important part of our portfolio with a robust inventory of high return future drilling locations. We plan to continue operating a four rig program, which will enable us to generate significant free cash flow, lower our unit cash costs and further optimize our infrastructure. Turning to our 2022 financial results, our adjusted net This agreement will serve to support Guyana’s efforts to income was $2.176 billion, compared with adjusted net protect the country’s vast forests and provide capital to income of $677 million in 2021, primarily due to higher improve the lives of Guyana’s citizens through investments realized prices and higher production from Guyana.

Excluding asset sales, we replaced 144% of 2022 production at a finding and development cost of approximately $14.80 per barrel of oil equivalent. SUSTAINABILITY As we continue to execute our strategy, our commitment to sustainability will remain a top priority. Our Board of Directors We test the long term resilience of Hess’ portfolio in a lower carbon economy using energy supply and demand scenarios developed by the IEA. Hess’ strategic priorities are consistent with the IEA’s less than 2°C scenarios, which continue to envision a meaningful role for oil and natural gas as part of the global energy mix through 2050.

In keeping with our Hess Values, we We support the aim of the Paris Agreement, and our Board and senior leadership have set aggressive targets for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction with a commitment to achieve net zero Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions on a net equity basis by 2050. After our company significantly outperformed our five year emissions reduction targets for 2020, we announced new five year GHG emissions reduction targets for 2025, which are to reduce operated Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions intensity by approximately 50% and methane emissions intensity by approximately 50% from 2017 and to eliminate routine flaring from our operations by the end of 2025. Saving the world’s forests and the important role they play as natural carbon sinks is foundational to the Paris Agreement’s aim of limiting the global average temperature rise to well below 2°C. At the end of 2022, we announced an agreement are committed to diversity, equity and inclusion, which we believe creates value for all of our stakeholders, and to the safety and wellbeing of our workforce and our communities. COMMITMENT TO SHAREHOLDERS We are excited about the future and will continue to execute our strategy that has positioned our company to deliver significant value for our shareholders for years to come. We are grateful for the ongoing dedication of our employees, the wise counsel of our Directors and the continued support of our shareholders. James H. Quigley John B.

As a result, we expect our Drilling and 315,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2021. The year Completions cost will average approximately $6.9 million per over year increase was primarily the result of production well, or about 8% above last year – well below estimated startup from the Liza Phase 2 development in Guyana in industry inflation of 10-15%. We continue the development of February 2022, which was partially offset by lower our acreage through a combination of optimized well spacing production from the Gulf of Mexico. and well completion design. The overall productivity of wells In the Bakken, Hess’ operated rig count averaged 3.5 in 2022, compared with 2.3 in 2021. Given higher oil prices and global demand for oil, the company added a fourth operated rig in July 2022. We brought 69 new wells on production in 2022, compared with 51 wells in 2021. Net production from the Bakken averaged 154,000 barrels of oil drilled in 2023 is forecast to be in line with the 2022 program, with average 180 day initial production rates of approximately 120,000 barrels of oil. Our estimate of net ultimate recovery from our Bakken acreage is approximately 2.2 billion barrels of oil equivalent with approximately 1.7 billion barrels of oil equivalent yet to be produced. equivalent per day in 2022, compared with 156,000 barrels Offshore Guyana, Hess holds a 30% interest in the of oil equivalent per day in 2021. The decrease was due to 6.6 million acre Stabroek Block. Esso Exploration and severe winter weather that impacted field operations and Production Guyana Limited, a subsidiary of ExxonMobil, is delayed bringing new wells online.

In the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, net production averaged 31,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2022, compared with 45,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2021. This decrease was primarily due to natural well declines and unplanned downtime partially offset by the Shell-operated Llano-6 well (50% interest), which achieved first oil in the third quarter. Offshore Guyana, Hess and our co-venture partners currently have four sanctioned developments on the Stabroek Block, which have a Brent breakeven oil price of between $25 and $35 per barrel. Combined gross production from the Liza Phase 1 and Phase 2 developments averaged more than 360,000 barrels of oil per day in the fourth quarter of 2022. The third development at Payara, which was sanctioned in September 2020, is on track to come online by the end of 2023 utilizing the In Southeast Asia, net production from the Hess operated Prosperity FPSO with a production capacity of approximately North Malay Basin (50% interest) and the Carigali Hess 220,000 gross barrels of oil per day. operated Malaysia/Thailand Joint Development Area (50% interest) averaged 64,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2022, compared with 61,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2021, as a result of increased drilling activity. The North Malay Basin Phase 4 development achieved first gas in December 2022. Net production from Libya averaged 17,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2022, compared with 20,000 barrels A fourth development at Yellowtail was sanctioned in April 2022 and will be our largest FPSO to date. Yellowtail is expected to come online in 2025, utilizing the ONE GUYANA FPSO with a production capacity of approximately 250,000 gross barrels of oil per day. A fifth development, at Uaru, with a gross production capacity of approximately 250,000 barrels of oil per day is 6 2022 ANNUAL REPORT GLOBAL OPERATIONS expected to come online by the end of 2026 pending government and regulatory approvals. We have line of sight to six FPSOs on the Stabroek Block in 2027 with a production capacity of more than 1.2 million gross barrels of oil per day and the potential for up to 10 FPSOs to develop the discovered resources on the block. EXPLORATION At the Stabroek Block, offshore Guyana, Hess has participated in more than 30 major discoveries, and gross discovered recoverable resources are currently estimated to be more than 11 billion barrels of oil equivalent. 2022 discoveries include the following: The Fangtooth-1 well encountered approximately 164 feet of high quality oil bearing sandstone reservoirs.

As part of our environment, health, safety and social responsibility (EHS & voluntary commitments, we are actively exploring SR) practices, working alongside senior management. advancements in detection and measurement technologies ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE We believe climate risks can and should be addressed while at the same time meeting the growing demand for affordable and secure energy, which is essential to ensure a just and orderly energy transition that aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Governments, businesses and civil society must work together on cost effective that can help improve our performance and transparency, including early leak detection and enhanced emissions data quality. Hess supports the enactment of cost effective direct methane regulations that would preserve a state’s ability to adapt implementation to local conditions, and we welcome continued engagement with the U.S. government to help develop a methane rule that encourages significant methane emissions reductions while also providing producers with the policies to meet this dual challenge. Our company supports flexibility needed to continue supplying reliable and transparent carbon pricing as an economically efficient affordable energy to consumers. method to encourage the investments needed to accelerate decarbonization across all sectors of the economy while keeping energy affordable and secure. Hess supports the aim of the Paris Agreement and has made a commitment to achieve net zero Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions on a net equity basis by 2050. Our climate strategy is closely aligned with the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) established by the G20 Financial Stability Board, and its implementation is led by senior members of our leadership team with oversight by our Board. Hess’ Low Carbon Transition Framework, which is described in our 2021 Sustainability Report, details how we are addressing climate related risks, opportunities and actions in the areas of governance, strategy, risk management, metrics and targets consistent with the TCFD’s October 2021 guidance. Our Board and senior leadership have set aggressive targets for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction. After our company significantly outperformed our five year emissions reduction targets for 2020, we set new five year targets for 2025, which are to reduce operated Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions intensity by approximately 50% from 2017 to 17 kg/BOE and to reduce our methane emissions intensity by approximately 50% from 2017 to an intensity Our company has endorsed the World Bank’s “Zero Routine Flaring by 2030” initiative with a commitment to achieve zero routine flaring from our operations by the end of 2025. Because continued flaring reduction, particularly from our Bakken operations, is a key driver for reducing our GHG emissions intensity and flaring rates, our company’s 2022 annual incentive plan included a target to achieve a 5% routine flaring intensity from our Bakken, North Dakota, production operations in 2022. We surpassed this target, ultimately reducing our routine flaring rate to 3% by the end of 2022. In December 2022, we announced an agreement to purchase high quality, independently verified REDD+ carbon credits for a minimum of $750 million between 2022 and 2032 directly from the government of Guyana. Protecting the world’s forests and the important role they play as natural carbon sinks is foundational to the Paris Agreement’s aim of limiting the global average temperature rise to well below 2°C and is one of the major commitments made at the COP26 climate summit. The purchase of these carbon credits adds to our company’s ongoing and successful emissions reduction efforts and is an important part of our net zero commitment. We also address 100% of the indirect emissions from our purchased electricity through a combination of renewable energy 2022 ANNUAL REPORT 9 SUSTAINABILIT Y Announcement of Statewide Tribal College Apprenticeship Program North Dakota Our company periodically brings in subject matter experts to advise our Board on climate and other sustainability issues to be considered in the development of company strategies and policies. The EHS Committee of our Board provides oversight and makes recommendations to the full Board with respect to Hess’ policies, positions and systems for EHS & SR, compliance and risk management. The Board’s Compensation and Management Development Committee has tied executive compensation to advancing the company’s EHS and climate change goals. SAFETY AND HEALTH Hess is committed to the health and safety of our workforce and the communities where we operate. Our safety programs and practices aim to maintain a culture in which employees and contractors keep themselves and each other generated from the grid and the purchase of renewable safe on the job, and we achieved a six year low in our severe energy certificates. As part of our sustainability commitment, we seek to fund innovation to mitigate societal GHG emissions, including the Salk Institute’s Harnessing Plants Initiative, which aims to develop plants with larger root systems that are capable of absorbing and storing potentially billions of tons of carbon per year from the atmosphere. Hess accounts for the cost of carbon in capital investment decisions. We conduct scenario planning that includes the Announced Pledges and Net Zero Scenarios developed by the IEA to test the resilience of our company’s portfolio against a range of environmental policies and market conditions in a lower carbon economy. According to the IEA’s 2022 World Energy Outlook, oil and gas are essential to meet the world’s growing demand for safe, affordable and reliable energy and in all the IEA scenarios will be part of the energy mix through 2050. Hess’ strategic priorities – to grow our resource base, deliver a low cost of supply and generate industry leading cash flow growth while maintaining our and significant safety incident rate in 2021. Unfortunately, our safety performance was mixed in 2022, with good overall performance in our offshore assets but an increase in incidents in our Bakken operations, including two tragic contractor fatalities in separate incidents that involved heavy equipment movement. Teams across our company have worked closely with our contractors to reflect on these incidents and identify and address areas for improvement. The safety performance of our contractors, who represent approximately 70% of total workforce hours on Hess sites, is critical to improving our performance and achieving our safety goals. As the COVID-19 pandemic has transitioned to an endemic phase, activity levels have increased, causing labor shortages, increased turnover rates and crew continuity challenges across our industry. We are addressing these issues by collaborating with our contractors to share learnings, deploy asset specific safety improvement plans and reinforce safety expectations, culture and procedures across our operations. industry leadership in environmental, social and governance In addition to personal safety, we continued to focus on performance and disclosure – are aligned with the energy process safety performance, maintaining a low Tier 1 transition needed to achieve the IEA’s scenarios and position process safety event count in 2022, consistent with the prior us well for the coming decades. We also consider physical year.

Business and Properties Worldwide crude oil, NGL, and natural gas net production was as follows: PART I Production 121285 10k 6 Hess Corporation, incorporated in the State of Delaware in 1920, is a global E&P company engaged in exploration, development, production, transportation, purchase and sale of crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas with production operations located in the United States (U.S.), Guyana, the Malaysia/Thailand Joint Development Area (JDA) and Malaysia. We conduct exploration activities primarily offshore Guyana, in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, and offshore Suriname and Canada. At the Stabroek Block (Hess 30%), offshore Guyana, we and our partners have discovered a significant resource base and are executing a multi-phased development of the block. We currently plan to have six FPSOs with an aggregate expected production capacity of more than 1.2 million gross bopd on the Stabroek Block in 2027, and the potential for up to ten FPSOs to develop the current discovered recoverable resource base. Our Midstream operating segment, which is comprised of Hess Corporation’s approximate 41% consolidated ownership interest in Hess Midstream LP at December 31, 2022, provides fee-based services, including gathering, compressing and processing natural gas and fractionating NGL; gathering, terminaling, loading and transporting crude oil and NGL; storing and terminaling propane, and water handling services primarily in the Bakken shale play in the Williston Basin area of North Dakota. See Midstream on page 11. Exploration and Production Proved Reserves Proved reserves are calculated using the average price during the twelve-month period ending December 31 determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the price on the first day of each month within the year, unless prices are defined by contractual agreements, and exclude escalations based on future conditions. Crude oil prices used in the determination of proved reserves at December 31, 2022 were $94.13 per barrel for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) (2021: $66.34) and $97.98 per barrel for Brent (2021: $68.92).

Risk Factors for a discussion of competition and market conditions. Emergency Preparedness and Response Plans and Procedures We have in place a series of business and asset-specific emergency preparedness, response and business continuity plans that detail procedures for rapid and effective emergency response and environmental mitigation activities. These plans are maintained, reviewed and updated as necessary to confirm their accuracy and suitability. Where applicable, they are also reviewed and approved by the relevant host government authorities. Responder training and drills are routinely held worldwide to assess and continually improve the effectiveness of our plans. Our contractors, service providers, representatives from government agencies and, where applicable, joint venture partners participate in the drills to help ensure that emergency procedures are comprehensive and can be effectively implemented. To complement internal capabilities and to help ensure coverage for our global operations, we maintain membership contracts In addition to owning response assets in their own right, the organization maintains business with a network of local, regional and global oil spill response and emergency response organizations. At the regional and global level, these organizations include CGA, MSRC, MWCC, WWC and OSRL. CGA and MSRC are domestic spill response organizations and MWCC provides the equipment and personnel to contain underwater well control incidents in the Gulf of Mexico. WWC provides firefighting, well control and engineering services globally. OSRL is a global response organization and is available, when needed, to assist us with any of our assets. relationships that provide immediate access to additional critical response support services if required. OSRL’s response assets include nearly 300 recovery and storage vessels and barges, more than 250 skimmers, over 600,000 feet of boom, nine capping stacks and significant quantities of dispersants and other ancillary equipment, including aircraft. In addition to external well control and oil spill response support, we have contracts with wildlife, environmental, meteorology, incident management, medical and security resources. services and, where appropriate, seek reimbursement under our insurance coverage, as described below. In certain circumstances, we pursue and enter into mutual aid agreements with other companies and government cooperatives to receive and provide oil spill response equipment and personnel support. We maintain close associations with emergency response organizations through our representation on the Executive Committee and Response Network Committee of MWCC, the Technical Operations Committee of CGA and the Oil Spill and Emergency Response Committee of API. We also maintain regular voting membership in CGA, MSRC and OSRL. If we were to engage these organizations to obtain additional critical response support services, we would fund such We continue to participate in several industry-wide task forces that are studying better ways to assess the risk of and prevent onshore and offshore incidents, access and control blowouts in subsea environments, and improve containment and recovery methods. The task forces are working closely with the oil and gas industry and international government agencies to implement improvements and increase the effectiveness of oil spill prevention, preparedness, response and recovery processes. Insurance Coverage and Indemnification We maintain insurance coverage that includes coverage for physical damage to our property, third-party liability, workers’ compensation and employers’ liability, general liability, sudden and accidental pollution and other coverage. This insurance coverage is subject to deductibles, exclusions and limitations and there is no assurance that such coverage will adequately protect us against liability from all potential consequences and damages. The amount of insurance covering physical damage to our property and liability related to negative environmental effects resulting from a sudden and accidental pollution event, excluding windstorm coverage for which we are self-insured, varies by asset, based on the asset's estimated replacement value or the estimated maximum loss. consists of two tiers of insurance. The first $450 million of coverage is provided through an industry mutual insurance group. Above this $450 million threshold, additional insurance is carried which ranges in value up to $540 million in total at December 31, 2022, depending on the asset coverage level, as described above. The insurance programs covering physical damage to our property exclude business interruption protection for our E&P operations. Additionally, we carry insurance that provides third-party coverage for general liability, and sudden and accidental pollution, up to $850 million, which coverage under a standard JOA would be reduced to our participating interest. Our insurance policies renew at various dates each year. Future insurance coverage could increase in cost and may include higher deductibles or retentions, or additional exclusions or limitations. In addition, some forms of insurance may become unavailable in the future or unavailable on terms that are deemed economically acceptable. In the case of a catastrophic event, first party coverage Generally, our drilling contracts (and most of our other offshore services contracts) provide for a mutual hold harmless indemnity structure whereby each party to the contract (the Corporation and contractor) indemnifies the other party for injuries or damages to their personnel and property (and, often, those of its contractors/subcontractors) regardless of fault. Variations may include indemnity exclusions to the extent a claim is attributable to the gross negligence and/or willful misconduct of a party. Third-party claims, on the other hand, are generally allocated on a fault basis. We are customarily responsible for, and indemnify the contractor against, all claims including those from third parties, to the extent attributable to pollution or contamination by substances originating from our reservoirs or other property and the contractor is responsible for and indemnifies us for all claims attributable to pollution emanating from the contractor’s property. Variations may include indemnity exclusions to the extent a claim is attributable to the gross negligence and/or willful misconduct of a party. Additionally, we are generally liable for all of our own losses and most third-party claims associated with catastrophic losses such as damage to reservoirs, blowouts, cratering and loss of hole, regardless of cause, although exceptions for losses attributable to gross negligence and/or willful misconduct do exist. Lastly, some offshore services contracts include overall limitations of the k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 2 1 12 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 12 3/1/23 2:38 PM 12 13 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:44PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 1 3 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k Plant, Little Missouri 4 Gas Plant, and third-party pipeline facilities.

These crude oil rail cars have been constructed to DOT-117 standards. • Johnson’s Corner Header System: A crude oil pipeline header system located in McKenzie County, North Dakota that to third-party interstate pipeline receives crude oil by pipeline from Hess and third parties and delivers crude oil systems. The facility has a delivery capacity of approximately 100,000 bopd of crude oil. • Produced Water Gathering and Disposal: A produced water gathering system located primarily in Williams and Mountrail Counties, North Dakota, that transports produced water from the wellsite by approximately 290 miles of pipeline in gathering systems or by third-party trucking to water handling facilities for disposal. Hess Midstream has multiple long-term, fee-based commercial agreements effective January 1, 2014 with certain subsidiaries of Hess for gas gathering, crude oil gathering, gas processing and fractionation, storage services, and terminal and export services, each generally with an initial ten-year term that can be extended for an additional ten-year term at the unilateral right of Hess Midstream. These contracts have minimum volumes that the Hess subsidiaries are obligated to provide each calendar quarter. The minimum volume commitments are subject to fluctuation based on nominations covering substantially all of our E&P segment’s production and projected third-party volumes that will be purchased in the Bakken. On December 30, 2020, Hess Midstream exercised its renewal options to extend the terms of certain gas gathering, crude oil gathering, gas processing and fractionation, storage services, and terminal and export commercial agreements for the secondary term through December 31, 2033. There were no changes to any provisions of the existing commercial agreements as a result of the exercise of the renewal options. Hess Midstream also has long- term, fee based commercial agreements for water handling services effective January 1, 2019 with a subsidiary of Hess, with an initial 14 year term that can be extended for an additional ten-year term at the unilateral right of Hess Midstream. Water handling services are provided for an agreed-upon fee per barrel or the reimbursement of third-party fees. Competition and Market Conditions See Item 1A. Risk Factors for a discussion of competition and market conditions. Emergency Preparedness and Response Plans and Procedures We have in place a series of business and asset-specific emergency preparedness, response and business continuity plans that detail procedures for rapid and effective emergency response and environmental mitigation activities. These plans are maintained, 121285 10k 13 reviewed and updated as necessary to confirm their accuracy and suitability. Where applicable, they are also reviewed and approved by the relevant host government authorities. Responder training and drills are routinely held worldwide to assess and continually improve the effectiveness of our plans. Our contractors, service providers, representatives from government agencies and, where applicable, joint venture partners participate in the drills to help ensure that emergency procedures are comprehensive and can be effectively implemented. To complement internal capabilities and to help ensure coverage for our global operations, we maintain membership contracts with a network of local, regional and global oil spill response and emergency response organizations. At the regional and global level, these organizations include CGA, MSRC, MWCC, WWC and OSRL. CGA and MSRC are domestic spill response organizations and MWCC provides the equipment and personnel to contain underwater well control incidents in the Gulf of Mexico. WWC provides firefighting, well control and engineering services globally. OSRL is a global response organization and is available, when needed, to assist us with any of our assets. In addition to owning response assets in their own right, the organization maintains business relationships that provide immediate access to additional critical response support services if required. OSRL’s response assets include nearly 300 recovery and storage vessels and barges, more than 250 skimmers, over 600,000 feet of boom, nine capping stacks and significant quantities of dispersants and other ancillary equipment, including aircraft. In addition to external well control and oil spill response support, we have contracts with wildlife, environmental, meteorology, incident management, medical and security resources. If we were to engage these organizations to obtain additional critical response support services, we would fund such services and, where appropriate, seek reimbursement under our insurance coverage, as described below. In certain circumstances, we pursue and enter into mutual aid agreements with other companies and government cooperatives to receive and provide oil spill response equipment and personnel support. We maintain close associations with emergency response organizations through our representation on the Executive Committee and Response Network Committee of MWCC, the Technical Operations Committee of CGA and the Oil Spill and Emergency Response Committee of API. We also maintain regular voting membership in CGA, MSRC and OSRL. We continue to participate in several industry-wide task forces that are studying better ways to assess the risk of and prevent onshore and offshore incidents, access and control blowouts in subsea environments, and improve containment and recovery methods. The task forces are working closely with the oil and gas industry and international government agencies to implement improvements and increase the effectiveness of oil spill prevention, preparedness, response and recovery processes. Insurance Coverage and Indemnification We maintain insurance coverage that includes coverage for physical damage to our property, third-party liability, workers’ compensation and employers’ liability, general liability, sudden and accidental pollution and other coverage. This insurance coverage is subject to deductibles, exclusions and limitations and there is no assurance that such coverage will adequately protect us against liability from all potential consequences and damages. The amount of insurance covering physical damage to our property and liability related to negative environmental effects resulting from a sudden and accidental pollution event, excluding windstorm coverage for which we are self-insured, varies by asset, based on the asset's estimated replacement value or the estimated maximum loss. In the case of a catastrophic event, first party coverage consists of two tiers of insurance. The first $450 million of coverage is provided through an industry mutual insurance group. Above this $450 million threshold, additional insurance is carried which ranges in value up to $540 million in total at December 31, 2022, depending on the asset coverage level, as described above. The insurance programs covering physical damage to our property exclude business interruption protection for our E&P operations. Additionally, we carry insurance that provides third-party coverage for general liability, and sudden and accidental pollution, up to $850 million, which coverage under a standard JOA would be reduced to our participating interest. Our insurance policies renew at various dates each year. Future insurance coverage could increase in cost and may include higher deductibles or retentions, or additional exclusions or limitations. In addition, some forms of insurance may become unavailable in the future or unavailable on terms that are deemed economically acceptable.

Under a standard JOA, each party is liable for all claims arising under the JOA, to the extent of its participating interest (operator or non-operator). Variations include indemnity exclusions when the claim is based upon the gross negligence and/or willful misconduct of the operator, in which case the operator is solely liable. The parties to the JOA may continue to be jointly and severally liable for claims made by third parties in some jurisdictions. Further, under some production sharing contracts between a governmental entity and commercial parties, liability of the commercial parties to the government entity is joint and several. Government Regulations The crude oil and natural gas industry is regulated at federal, state, local and foreign government levels. Regulations affecting elements of the energy sector are under continuous review for amendment or expansion over time, which may result in incremental costs of doing business and affect our profitability. See Regulatory, Legal and Environmental Risks in Item 1A. Risk Factors. Compliance with various existing environmental, health and safety regulations is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. However, increasingly stringent environmental regulations have resulted and will likely continue to result in higher capital expenditures and operating expenses for us and the oil and gas industry in general and may reduce demand for our products. We spent approximately $23 million in 2022 for environmental remediation. Additionally, we may be exposed to decommissioning liabilities, including for divested assets. See Note 8, Asset Retirement Obligations in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The level of other expenditures to comply with federal, state, local and foreign country regulations is difficult to quantify as such costs are captured as mostly indistinguishable components of our capital expenditures and operating expenses. For further discussion of environmental, health and safety regulations affecting our business, see Environment, Health and Safety in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Human Capital Management Corporate Culture and Overview Our human capital strategy aims to attract, engage and retain our talent by investing in their professional development and providing them with challenging and rewarding opportunities for personal growth. Our workplace culture is guided by our Corporation’s values and reinforced by developing quality leadership, fostering DEI, emphasizing continuous learning, creating opportunities for engagement, driving innovation, and embracing Lean improvement processes. We are undertaking a Life at Hess initiative to optimize the work experience for our multigenerational and demographically diverse workforce and unlock the discretionary effort that is required to perform at a high level on a sustained basis. The Life at Hess framework encompasses programs, policies and practices, and a listening system that draws on in-person dialogues, pulse polls and data analytics to help leaders understand employees’ experiences and perspectives to inform their decision making. As of December 31, 2022, we had 1,623 employees globally, as detailed below. Job Category Executives and Senior Officers ....................................................

We continue to adapt our work policies and benefits to prioritize emotional, mental and physical health and well-being. Accordingly, during 2022, we instituted a hybrid work schedule at our office locations to take a deliberate and measured approach to returning to the physical work environment. During 2022, we further evolved our Life at Hess initiative, conducting several employee surveys to check employee understanding of and engagement in strategic priorities and learn about their experience in a time of great change. The work experience continues to evolve through: • in-person and virtual learning opportunities and training, • enhanced education assistance and tuition grant programs, • support for hybrid working effectiveness, • mental well-being support, • expanded matching gifts and volunteer grants program, • enhanced holiday schedule to include an additional floating holiday for employees to observe other religious days or holidays • leadership training and development to help leaders navigate the complex environment of hybrid working, societal changes, important to them, and and market dynamics.

Risk Factors Our business activities and the value of our securities are subject to significant risks, including the risk factors described below. These risk factors could negatively affect our operations, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, and as a result, holders and purchasers of our securities could lose part or all of their investments. It is possible that additional risks relating to our securities may be described in a prospectus supplement if we issue securities in the future. Market and Third-Party Risks Our business and operating results are highly dependent on the market prices of crude oil, NGL and natural gas, which can be very volatile. Our estimated proved reserves, revenue, operating cash flows, operating margins, liquidity, financial condition and future earnings are highly dependent on the benchmark market prices of crude oil, NGL and natural gas, and our associated realized price differentials, which are volatile and influenced by numerous factors beyond our control. The major foreign oil producing countries, including members of OPEC, may exert considerable influence over the supply and price of crude oil and refined petroleum products. Their ability to agree on a common policy on rates of production and other matters may have a significant impact on the oil markets. Other factors include, but are not limited to: worldwide and domestic supplies of and demand for crude oil, NGL and natural gas; political conditions and events (including weather, instability, changes in governments, armed conflict, economic sanctions and outbreaks of infectious diseases, such as COVID-19) around the world and in particular in crude oil or natural gas producing regions; the cost of exploring for, developing and producing crude oil, NGL and natural gas; the price, availability of and demand for alternative fuels or other forms of energy; the effect of energy conservation and environmental protection efforts; and overall economic conditions globally (including inflation, slower growth or recession, higher interest rates, supply chain constraints, and consequences associated with the ongoing invasion of Ukraine by Russia). The sentiment of commodities trading markets as well as other supply and demand factors may also influence the selling prices of crude oil, NGL and natural gas. Average benchmark prices for 2022 were $94.33 per barrel for WTI (2021: $68.08; 2020: $39.34) and $99.04 per barrel for Brent (2021: $70.95; 2020: In order to manage the potential volatility of cash flows and credit requirements, we maintain significant bank credit $43.21). facilities. An inability to access, renew or replace such credit facilities or access other sources of funding as they mature would negatively impact our liquidity. Furthermore, from time to time we have entered into, and may in the future enter into or modify, commodity price hedging arrangements to manage commodity price volatility. These arrangements may limit potential upside from commodity price increases, or expose us to additional risks, such as counterparty credit risk, which could adversely impact our cash flow, liquidity or financial condition. We do not always control decisions made under joint operating agreements and the parties under such agreements may fail to meet their obligations. We conduct many of our E&P operations through joint operating agreements with other parties under which we may not control decisions, either because we do not have a controlling interest or are not operator under the agreement. There is risk that these parties may at any time have economic, business, or legal interests or goals that are inconsistent with ours, and therefore decisions may be made which are not what we believe is in our best interest. Moreover, parties to these agreements may be unable to meet their economic or other obligations and we may be required to fulfill those obligations alone. For example, in June 2021, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court approved the bankruptcy plan for Fieldwood Energy LLC (Fieldwood) which includes transferring abandonment obligations of Fieldwood to us and other predecessors in title of certain of its assets, who are jointly and severally liable for the obligations. See Note 8, Asset Retirement Obligations in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. As a result, actions of our contractual counterparties may adversely affect the value of our investments and result in increased costs or liabilities. Our industry is highly competitive and many of our competitors are larger and have greater resources and more diverse portfolios than we have. The petroleum industry is highly competitive and very capital intensive. We encounter competition from numerous companies, including acquiring rights to explore for crude oil and natural gas. To a lesser extent, we are also in competition with producers of alternative fuels or other forms of energy, including wind, solar and electric power, and in the future, could face increasing competition due to the development and adoption of new technologies. Many competitors, including national oil companies, are larger and have substantially greater resources to acquire and develop oil and gas assets, or may have established strategic relationships in areas we operate, or may be willing to incur a higher level of risk than we are willing to incur. In addition, competition for drilling services, technical expertise and equipment may affect the availability of technical personnel and drilling rigs, resulting in increased capital and operating costs. Many of our competitors have a more diverse portfolio of assets, which may minimize the impact of adverse events occurring at any one location. Our business and operations were and could in the future be adversely affected by an epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease, such as COVID-19 or other similar public health developments. We face risks related to epidemics, outbreaks or other public health events, or the threat thereof, that are outside of our control, and could significantly disrupt our business and operational plans and adversely affect our business and operating results. For example, COVID-19 and related actions taken by governments and businesses, including voluntary and mandatory quarantines and travel and other restrictions, significantly impacted economic activity. As a result of COVID-19, our operations, and those of our business partners, service companies and suppliers, have experienced disruptions, delays or temporary suspensions of operations, temporary inaccessibility or closures of facilities, supply chain issues and workforce impacts from illness, school closures and other community response measures. We also are subject to regulatory changes, litigation risk and possible loss contingencies related to COVID-19, including with respect to commercial contracts, employee matters and insurance arrangements. Furthermore, there is no certainty that the health and safety measures we implement will be sufficient to mitigate the risks, including infection of key employees and our ability to perform certain functions, posed by COVID-19, its variants or another epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease. In addition to the global health concerns, an epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease could negatively affect the U.S. and global economy and the demand for oil and natural gas. For example, COVID-19 and concerns regarding the global spread of its variants negatively impacted the domestic and international demand for crude oil and natural gas and contributed to price volatility and adversely affected the demand for and marketability of crude oil, natural gas and NGL. Containment measures implemented to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and its variants lead to adoption of certain behavioral changes, such as reduced travel and enhanced work-from-home policies, which resulted in further reductions in demand for and consumption of energy commodities. We may experience decreases in production and proved reserves, additional asset impairments, and other accounting charges if demand for crude oil, natural gas and NGL decreases as a result of a future or worsening outbreak of an infectious disease, such as COVID-19 and its variants. The extent to which such an occurrence may negatively affect our operating results is uncertain and depends on actions taken by authorities to contain it or treat its impact, all of which are beyond our control. Operational and Strategic Risks If we fail to successfully increase our reserves, our future crude oil and natural gas production will be adversely impacted. We own or have access to a finite amount of oil and gas reserves, which will be depleted over time. Replacement of oil and gas production and reserves, including proved undeveloped reserves, is subject to successful exploration drilling, development activities, and enhanced recovery programs. Therefore, future oil and gas production is dependent on technical success in finding and developing additional hydrocarbon reserves. Exploration activity involves the interpretation of seismic and other geological and geophysical data, which does not always successfully predict the presence of commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. Drilling risks include unexpected adverse conditions, irregularities in pressure or formations, equipment failure, blowouts and weather interruptions. Future developments may be affected by unforeseen reservoir conditions, which negatively affect recovery factors or flow rates. Similar risks may be encountered in the production of oil and gas on properties acquired from others. In addition, replacing reserves and developing future production are also influenced by the price of crude oil and natural gas and costs of drilling and development activities. Lower crude oil and natural gas prices may reduce capital available for our exploration and development activities, render certain development projects uneconomic or delay their completion, and result in negative revisions to existing reserves while increasing drilling and development costs could negatively affect expected economic returns. There are inherent uncertainties in estimating quantities of proved reserves and discounted future net cash flows, and actual quantities may be lower than estimated. Numerous uncertainties exist in estimating quantities of proved reserves and future net revenues from those reserves. Actual future production, oil and gas prices, revenues, taxes, capital expenditures, operating expenses, and quantities of recoverable oil and gas reserves may vary substantially from those assumed in the estimates and could materially affect the estimated quantities of our proved reserves and the related future net revenues. In addition, reserve estimates may be subject to downward or upward changes based on production performance, purchases or sales of properties, results of future development, changes in prevailing oil and gas prices, production sharing contracts, which may decrease reserves as crude oil and natural gas prices increase, and other factors. Catastrophic and other events, whether naturally occurring or man-made, may materially affect our operations and financial condition. Our oil and gas operations are subject to numerous risks and hazards inherent to operating in the crude oil and natural gas industry, including catastrophic events, which may damage or destroy assets, interrupt operations, result in personal injury and have other significant adverse effects. These events include unexpected drilling conditions, pressure conditions or irregularities in reservoir formations, equipment malfunctions or failures, derailments, fires, explosions, blowouts, oil releases, power outages, cratering, pipeline interruptions and ruptures, severe weather, such as hurricanes, floods, freezes and heat waves or droughts, geological events, shortages in availability of skilled labor, cyber-attacks or health measures related to outbreaks of infectious diseases, such as COVID-19. We maintain insurance coverage against many, but not all, potential losses and liabilities in amounts we deem prudent, including for property and casualty losses. Some forms of insurance may be unavailable in the future or be available only on terms that are deemed economically unacceptable. Moreover, there can be no assurance that such insurance will adequately protect us against liability from all potential consequences and damages. For example, we are self-insured against physical damage to property and liability related to windstorms. In 2022, there was no significant hurricane-related downtime whereas in 2021, hurricane- related downtime reduced net production by 4,000 boepd and hurricane related maintenance and repair costs were approximately $7 million. droughts, extreme temperatures, and changes in temperature and precipitation patterns that impact our business activities, may also be impacted by the effects of climate change. Energy needs could increase or decrease as a result of extreme weather conditions depending on the duration and magnitude of any such climate change. Increased energy use due to weather changes may require us to invest in order to serve increased demand or create operational challenges. A decrease in energy use due to weather changes may affect our financial condition through decreased revenues. To the extent the frequency of extreme weather events increases, this could adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, the frequency and severity of weather conditions and other meteorological phenomena, including storms, Significant time delays between the estimated and actual occurrence of critical events associated with development projects may result in material negative economic consequences. As part of our business, we are involved in large development projects, the completion of which may be delayed beyond what was originally planned.

These delays could impact our future results of operations and cash flows. An inability to secure personnel, drilling rigs, equipment, supplies and other required services or to retain key employees may result in material negative economic consequences. We are dependent on oilfield service companies for items including drilling rigs, equipment, supplies and skilled labor. The availability and cost of drilling rigs, equipment, supplies and skilled labor will fluctuate over time given the cyclical nature of the E&P industry. Concerns over global economic conditions, inflation, supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, and other factors, each of which are beyond our control, contribute to increased economic uncertainty for us and our suppliers. As a result, we may encounter difficulties in obtaining required services or could face an increase in cost, which may impact our ability to run our operations and deliver projects on time with the potential for material negative economic consequences. In addition, difficulty in recruiting and retaining adequate numbers of experienced technical personnel could negatively impact our ability to deliver on our strategic goals. Our future success also depends upon the continued service of key members of our senior management team, who play an important role in developing and implementing our strategy. An inability to recruit and retain adequate numbers of experienced technical and professional personnel in the necessary locations or the loss or departure of key members of senior management may prevent us from executing our strategy in full or, in part, which could negatively impact our business. Disruption, failure or cyber security breaches affecting or targeting computer, telecommunications systems, and infrastructure used by the Corporation or our business partners may materially impact our business and operations. Computers and telecommunication systems are an integral part of our exploration, development and production activities and the activities of our business partners. We use these systems to analyze and store financial and operating data and to communicate within our corporation and with outside business partners. Our reliance on technology has increased due to the increased use of remote communications and other work-from-home practices in response to COVID-19. Technical system flaws, power loss, cyber security risks, including cyber or phishing-attacks, unauthorized access, malicious software, data privacy breaches by employees or others with authorized access, ransomware, and other cyber security issues could compromise our computer and telecommunications systems or those of our business partners and result in disruptions to our business operations or the access, disclosure or loss of our data and In addition, computers control oil and gas production, processing equipment, and distribution systems proprietary information. globally and are necessary to deliver our production to market. A disruption, failure or a cyber breach of these operating systems, or of the networks and infrastructure on which they rely, could damage critical production, distribution and/or storage assets, delay or prevent delivery to markets, and make it difficult or impossible to accurately account for production and settle transactions. As a result, any such disruption, failure or cyber breach and any resulting investigation or remediation costs, litigation or regulatory action could have a material adverse impact on our cash flows and results of operations, reputation and competitiveness. We routinely experience attempts by external parties to penetrate and attack our networks and systems. Although such attempts to date have not resulted in any material breaches, disruptions, financial loss, or loss of business-critical information, our systems and procedures for protecting against such attacks and mitigating such risks may prove to be insufficient in the future and such attacks could have an adverse impact on our business and operations, including damage to our reputation and competitiveness, remediation costs, litigation or regulatory actions. In addition, as technologies evolve and cyber security attacks become more sophisticated, we may incur significant costs to upgrade or enhance our security measures to protect against such attacks and we may face difficulties in fully anticipating or implementing adequate preventive measures or mitigating potential harm. Financial Risks We have substantial capital requirements, and we may not be able to obtain needed financing on satisfactory terms. The exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas involve substantial costs, which may not be fully funded from operations. All three major credit rating agencies that rate our debt have assigned an investment grade rating. Although currently we do not have any borrowings under our long-term credit facility, a ratings downgrade, rising interest rates, continued weakness in the oil and gas industry or negative outcomes within commodity and financial markets could adversely impact our access to capital In addition, a markets by increasing the costs of financing, or by impacting our ability to obtain financing on satisfactory terms. ratings downgrade may require that we issue letters of credit or provide other forms of collateral under certain contractual requirements. Environmental concerns and other factors have led to lower oil and gas representation in certain key equity market indices and may increase our costs to access the equity capital markets. Any inability to access capital markets could adversely impact our financial adaptability and our ability to execute our strategy. We engage in risk management transactions designed to mitigate commodity price volatility and other risks that may impede our ability to benefit from commodity price increases and can expose us to similar potential counterparty credit risk as amounts due from the sale of hydrocarbons. We may enter into commodity price hedging arrangements to protect us from commodity price declines. These arrangements may, depending on the instruments used and the level of additional hedges involved, limit any potential upside from commodity price increases. As with accounts receivable from the sale of hydrocarbons, we may be exposed to potential economic loss should a counterparty be unable or unwilling to perform their obligations under the terms of a In addition, we are exposed to risks related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency values, and may hedging agreement. engage in hedging activities to mitigate related volatility. Regulatory, Legal and Environmental Risks Our oil and gas operations are subject to environmental risks and environmental, health and safety laws and regulations that can result in significant costs and liabilities. Our oil and gas operations are subject to environmental risks such as oil spills, produced water spills, gas leaks and ruptures and discharges of substances or gases that could expose us to substantial liability for pollution or other environmental damage. Our operations are also subject to numerous U.S. federal, state, local and foreign environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. Non-compliance with these laws and regulations may subject us to administrative, civil or criminal penalties, remedial clean-ups, natural resource damages and other liabilities. In addition, increasingly stringent environmental regulations have resulted and will likely continue to result in higher capital expenditures and operating expenses for us. Similarly, we have material legal obligations to dismantle, remove and abandon production facilities and wells that will occur many years in the future, in most cases. These estimates may be impacted by future changes in regulations, solvency of subsequent owners and partners and other uncertainties. Concerns have been raised in certain jurisdictions where we have operations concerning the safety and environmental impact of the drilling and development of shale oil and gas resources, particularly hydraulic fracturing, water usage, flaring of associated natural gas and air emissions. While we believe that these operations can be conducted safely and with minimal impact on the environment, regulatory bodies are responding to these concerns and may impose moratoriums and new regulations on such drilling operations that would likely have the effect of prohibiting or delaying such operations and increasing their cost. Climate change, sustainability and other ESG initiatives may result in significant operational changes and expenditures, reduced demand for our products and adversely affect our business. We recognize that climate change and sustainability is a growing global environmental concern. Continuing political and social attention to the issue of climate change and sustainability has resulted in both existing and pending international agreements and national, regional or local legislation and regulatory measures to limit GHG emissions. These agreements and measures may require, or could result in future legislation and regulatory measures that require, significant equipment modifications, operational changes, taxes, or purchase of emission credits to reduce emission of GHGs from our operations, which may result in substantial capital expenditures and compliance, operating, maintenance and remediation costs. For example, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) includes a methane emissions reduction program for petroleum and natural gas systems, which requires the EPA to impose a “waste emissions charge” on excess methane emissions from certain natural gas and oil sources that are required to report under EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program beginning January 1, 2024 and also provides significant funding and incentives for research and development of competing low carbon energy production methods. addition, such legislation, regulations and initiatives could impact demand as our production is sold to third parties that produce petroleum fuels, which through normal end user consumption result in the emission of GHGs. In We are prioritizing sustainable energy practices to further reduce our carbon footprint while at the same time remaining a including our stockholders, employees, suppliers, successful operating public company. However, various key stakeholders, customers, local communities and others, may have differing approaches to climate change initiatives. manage expectations across these varied stakeholder interests, it could erode our stakeholders' trust and thereby affect our reputation. Shareholder activism has been recently increasing in our industry, and stockholders may attempt to effect changes to our business or governance, whether by shareholder proposals, public campaigns, proxy solicitations or otherwise. institutions, institutional investors and other sources of capital have begun to limit or eliminate their investment in oil and gas activities due to concerns about climate change, which could make it more difficult to finance our business. We continue to focus on developing our ESG practices, and as voluntary and regulatory ESG disclosure standards and policies continue to evolve, we have expanded and expect to further expand our public disclosures in these areas. Such disclosures may reflect aspirational goals, targets, cost estimates and other expectations and assumptions, including over long timelines, which aspirational goals, targets, cost estimates, and other expectations and assumptions are necessarily uncertain and may not be realized. Failure to realize or timely achieve progress on such aspirational goals, targets, cost estimates, and other expectations or assumptions may adversely impact us. In addition, certain financial If we do not successfully Furthermore, as a result of heightened public awareness and attention to climate change and sustainability as well as continued regulatory initiatives to reduce the use of petroleum fuels, demand for crude oil and other hydrocarbons may be reduced, which may have an adverse effect on our sales volumes, revenues and margins. The imposition and enforcement of stringent GHG emissions reduction requirements could severely and adversely impact the oil and gas industry and therefore significantly reduce the value of our business. Increasing attention to climate change risks and sustainability has resulted in governmental investigations, and public and private litigation, which could increase our costs or otherwise adversely affect our business. For example, beginning in 2017, certain states, municipalities and private associations in California, Delaware, Maryland, Rhode Island and South Carolina separately filed lawsuits against oil, gas and coal producers, including us, for alleged damages purportedly caused by climate change. Such actions could adversely impact our business by distracting management and other personnel from their primary responsibilities, require us to incur increased costs, and/or result in reputational harm. We are subject to changing laws and regulations and other governmental actions that can significantly and adversely affect our business.

These delays could impact our future results of operations and cash flows. business. An inability to secure personnel, drilling rigs, equipment, supplies and other required services or to retain key employees may result in material negative economic consequences. We are dependent on oilfield service companies for items including drilling rigs, equipment, supplies and skilled labor. The availability and cost of drilling rigs, equipment, supplies and skilled labor will fluctuate over time given the cyclical nature of the E&P industry. Concerns over global economic conditions, inflation, supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, and other factors, each of which are beyond our control, contribute to increased economic uncertainty for us and our suppliers. As a result, we may encounter difficulties in obtaining required services or could face an increase in cost, which may impact our ability to run our operations and deliver projects on time with the potential for material negative economic consequences. In addition, difficulty in recruiting and retaining adequate numbers of experienced technical personnel could negatively impact our ability to deliver on our strategic goals. Our future success also depends upon the continued service of key members of our senior management team, who play an important role in developing and implementing our strategy. An inability to recruit and retain adequate numbers of experienced technical and professional personnel in the necessary locations or the loss or departure of key members of senior management may prevent us from executing our strategy in full or, in part, which could negatively impact our proprietary information. Disruption, failure or cyber security breaches affecting or targeting computer, telecommunications systems, and infrastructure used by the Corporation or our business partners may materially impact our business and operations. Computers and telecommunication systems are an integral part of our exploration, development and production activities and the activities of our business partners. We use these systems to analyze and store financial and operating data and to communicate within our corporation and with outside business partners. Our reliance on technology has increased due to the increased use of remote communications and other work-from-home practices in response to COVID-19. Technical system flaws, power loss, cyber security risks, including cyber or phishing-attacks, unauthorized access, malicious software, data privacy breaches by employees or others with authorized access, ransomware, and other cyber security issues could compromise our computer and telecommunications systems or those of our business partners and result in disruptions to our business operations or the access, disclosure or loss of our data and In addition, computers control oil and gas production, processing equipment, and distribution systems globally and are necessary to deliver our production to market.

These actions could result in tax increases retroactively through tax claims or prospectively through changes to applicable statutory tax rates, modification of the tax base, or imposition of new tax types. For example, the IRA includes a 15% book-income alternative minimum tax on corporations with average adjusted financial statement income over $1 billion for any three year period ending with 2022 or later and a 1% excise tax on the fair market value of stock that is repurchased by publicly traded U.S. corporations effective in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022. The impact of the excise tax provision will be dependent on the extent of share repurchases made in future periods. We continue to evaluate the corporate alternative minimum tax and its potential impact on our future U.S. tax expense, cash taxes, and effective tax rate, as well as any other impacts the IRA may have on our financial position and results of operations. Additionally, governmental actions could include post-production deductions from royalty payments; limitations or prohibitions on the sales of new oil and gas leases or extensions on existing oil and gas leases; adverse court decisions with respect to the sale of new and existing oil and gas leases; expropriation or nationalization of property; mandatory government participation, cancellation or amendment of contract rights; imposition of capital controls or blocking of funds; changes in import and export regulations; the imposition of tariffs; and anti-bribery or anti-corruption laws. In recent years, proposals for limitations on access to oil and gas exploration and development opportunities and related litigation have grown in certain areas and may include efforts to reduce access to public and private lands; restriction of exploration and production activities within government-owned and other lands; delaying or canceling permits for drilling or pipeline construction; restrictions or changes to existing pipeline easements; limiting or banning industry techniques such as hydraulic fracturing and/or adding restrictions on the use of water and associated disposal; imposition of set-backs on oil and gas sites; reduction of sulfur content in bunker fuel; delaying or denying air-quality or siting permits; advocating for increased regulations, punitive taxation, or citizen ballot initiatives or moratoriums on industry activity; and the use of social media channels to cause reputational harm. Costs associated with responding to these anti-development efforts or complying with any new legal or regulatory requirements could significantly and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Political instability globally and in areas where we operate can adversely affect our business. Political instability and civil unrest have affected and may continue to affect the oil and gas markets generally. Some international areas are politically less stable than other areas and may be subject to civil unrest, conflict, insurgency, corruption, security risks and labor unrest. Political instability in areas where we operate may expose our operations to increased risks, including increased difficulty in obtaining required permits and government approvals, enforcing our agreements in those jurisdictions and potential adverse actions by local government authorities. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia in February 2022 has led to disruption, instability, and volatility in global markets and industries, including the oil and gas markets. The U.S. government and other foreign governments imposed severe economic sanctions and export controls against Russia, certain regions of Ukraine and particular entities and individuals, and may impose additional sanctions and controls. To date, we have not experienced a material impact to operations or the consolidated financial statements as a result of the invasion of Ukraine; however, we will continue to monitor for events that could materially impact us or our industry. Furthermore, the threat of terrorism around the world also poses additional risks to our operations and the operations of the oil and gas industry in general. In addition, geographic territorial border disputes may affect our business in certain areas, such as the border dispute between Guyana and Venezuela over a portion of the Stabroek Block. One of our subsidiaries is the general partner of a publicly traded limited partnership, Hess Midstream LP. The responsibilities associated with being a general partner expose us to a broader range of legal liabilities. Our control of Hess Midstream LP bestows upon us additional duties and obligations including, but not limited to, the obligations associated with managing potential conflicts of interests and additional reporting requirements from the Securities and Exchange Commission. These heightened duties expose us to additional potential for legal claims that may have a material negative economic impact on our stockholders. Moreover, these increased duties may lead to an increase in compliance costs. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments None. Item 3.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 1, 2022, and such comparisons are incorporated herein by reference. Index Overview Overview Consolidated Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Hess Corporation is a global E&P company engaged in exploration, development, production, transportation, purchase and sale of crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas with production operations located in the United States, Guyana, the Malaysia/Thailand Joint Development Area (JDA) and Malaysia. We conduct exploration activities primarily offshore Guyana, in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, and offshore Suriname and Canada. At the Stabroek Block (Hess 30%), offshore Guyana, we and our partners have discovered a significant resource base and are executing a multi-phased development of the block. We currently plan to have six FPSOs with an aggregate expected production capacity of more than 1.2 million gross bopd on the Stabroek Block in 2027, and the potential for up to ten FPSOs to develop the current discovered recoverable resource base. Our Midstream operating segment, which is comprised of Hess Corporation’s approximate 41% consolidated ownership interest in Hess Midstream LP at December 31, 2022, provides fee-based services, including gathering, compressing and processing natural gas and fractionating NGL; gathering, terminaling, loading and transporting crude oil and NGL; storing and terminaling propane, and water handling services primarily in the Bakken shale play in the Williston Basin area of North Dakota. Climate Change, Energy Transition and Our Strategy We believe climate risks can and should be addressed while at the same time meeting the growing demand for affordable and secure energy, which is essential to ensure a just and orderly energy transition that aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The IEA's 2022 World Energy Outlook provides three scenarios of global energy demand in 2040 based on varying levels of global response to climate change. Under all of the IEA scenarios, oil and natural gas are expected to be needed for decades to come and we expect that significant investment will be required to meet the world’s projected growing energy needs, both in renewable energy sources and in oil and gas. Our strategy is to grow our resource base, have a low cost of supply and sustain cash flow growth. Our strategy aligns with the energy transition needed to reach the energy-related Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. Our commitment to sustainability starts with our Board of Directors and senior management and is reinforced throughout our organization. Our Board of Directors, led by its Environmental, Health and Safety Committee, is actively engaged in overseeing Hess’ sustainability practices so that sustainability risks and opportunities are taken into account when making strategic decisions. Our Board’s Compensation and Management Development Committee has tied executive compensation to advancing our environmental, health and safety goals. We also have an executive led task force to guide our medium and longer term climate strategy. We have five year GHG reduction targets for 2025, which are to reduce operated Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions intensity by approximately 50% and methane emissions intensity by approximately 50%, both from 2017 levels. In January 2022, we announced our plan to reduce routine flaring at Hess operated assets to zero by the end of 2025. In December 2022, we announced an agreement with the Government of Guyana to purchase 37.5 million REDD+ carbon credits, including current and future issuances, for a minimum of $750 million from 2022 through 2032 to prevent deforestation and support sustainable development in Guyana. This agreement adds to the Corporation's ongoing emissions reduction efforts and is an important part of our commitment to achieve net zero Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions on a net equity basis by 2050. k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 4 2 24 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 24 3/1/23 2:38 PM 24 25 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:46PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 Share Repurchase Activities Our share repurchases for the year ended December 31, 2022, were as follows: 2022 January February March April May June July August September October November December Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs (b) Maximum Approximate Dollar Value of Shares that May Yet be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs (c) (In millions) Total Number of Shares Purchased (a) Average Price Paid per Share (a) — $ — — — — 1,753,918 576,892 413,956 382,238 707,748 524,975 1,019,588 5,379,315 $ — — — — — 108.49 103.59 110.51 116.50 132.27 143.95 137.90 120.85 — $ — — — — 1,753,918 576,892 413,956 382,238 707,748 524,975 1,019,588 5,379,315 2 5 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k 650 650 650 650 650 460 400 354 310 216 140 — (a) Repurchased in open-market transactions.

Pending government approvals and project sanctioning, the project is expected to have a production capacity of approximately 250,000 gross bopd, with first oil anticipated at the end of 2026. In addition to the first five developments, planning is underway for additional FPSOs. The ultimate sizing and order of these potential developments will be a function of further exploration and appraisal drilling. In 2022, the operator drilled a total of ten successful exploration and appraisal wells that encountered hydrocarbons and one unsuccessful exploration well, Banjo-1, for which the well costs were expensed. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, the operator completed one successful exploration well that encountered hydrocarbons, and one unsuccessful exploration well, Fish/Tarpon-1, for which well costs incurred through December 31, 2022 were expensed. See Note 20, Subsequent Events in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In 2023, the operator plans to utilize six drillships to drill approximately ten exploration and appraisal wells in addition to development wells for the sanctioned developments. • In the Gulf of Thailand, net production from Block A-18 of the JDA averaged 38,000 boepd in 2022 (2021: 36,000 boepd), including contribution from unitized acreage in Malaysia, while net production from North Malay Basin averaged 26,000 boepd in 2022 (2021: 25,000 boepd). In 2023, we forecast net production from North Malay Basin and JDA combined to be in the range of 60,000 boepd to 65,000 boepd. • In Libya, we completed the sale of our interest in the Waha Concession in November for net proceeds of $150 million and recognized a pre-tax gain of $76 million ($76 million after income taxes). Net production from Libya was 17,000 boepd in 2022. The following is an update of significant Midstream activities during 2022: • In April 2022, Hess Midstream completed an underwritten public offering of approximately 10.2 million Class A shares held by Hess and GIP. As a result of this transaction, Hess received net proceeds of $146 million. • Concurrent with the April 2022 public offering, HESM Opco repurchased approximately 13.6 million Class B units held by Hess and GIP for $400 million, with Hess receiving net proceeds of $200 million. HESM Opco issued $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.500% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes due 2030 in a private offering to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility used to finance the repurchase. 121285 10k 26 2 6 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k Our business planning includes actions we expect to undertake to continue reducing our carbon footprint consistent with our targets. We also conduct annual scenario planning as a methodology to assess our portfolio’s resilience to differing scenarios of energy supply and demand over the longer term, and to inform our understanding of future risks and opportunities in relation to the potential evolution of energy demand, energy mix, the emergence of new technologies, and possible changes by policymakers with respect to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. 2022 Return of Capital Highlights and 2023 Outlook Following the startup of the Liza Phase 2 project in February 2022, we repaid the remaining $500 million outstanding under our $1.0 billion term loan, and in March 2022, we announced a 50% increase to our quarterly dividend on common stock. In 2022, we repurchased approximately 5.4 million shares of common stock for $650 million. Our E&P capital and exploratory expenditures are projected to be approximately $3.7 billion in 2023, up from $2.7 billion in 2022. Capital investment for our Midstream operations is expected to be approximately $225 million, compared with $232 million in 2022. Oil and gas net production in 2023 is forecast to be in the range of 355,000 boepd to 365,000 boepd, up from 327,000 boepd in 2022, pro forma for assets sold. For 2023, we have hedged 80,000 bopd with WTI put options with an average monthly floor price of $70 per barrel, and 10,000 bopd with Brent put options with an average monthly floor price of $75 per barrel. Consolidated Results Net income attributable to Hess Corporation was $2,096 million in 2022 compared with $559 million in 2021. Excluding items affecting comparability of earnings between periods summarized on page 29, adjusted net income was $2,176 million in 2022 compared with $677 million in 2021. Net production averaged 344,000 boepd in 2022 and 315,000 boepd in 2021. The average realized crude oil price, including the effect of hedging, was $85.76 per barrel in 2022 and $60.08 per barrel in 2021. Total proved reserves were 1,256 million boe and 1,309 million boe at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Significant 2022 Activities The following is an update of significant E&P activities during 2022: E&P assets: • In North Dakota, net production from the Bakken shale play averaged 154,000 boepd in 2022 (2021: 156,000 boepd). Net production was lower in 2022 primarily due to unplanned production shut-ins caused by severe winter weather partially offset by increased wells on-line. We drilled 78 wells and brought 69 wells on production in 2022, bringing the total operated production wells to 1,664 at December 31, 2022. Prior to COVID-19, we were operating six rigs in the Bakken, but reduced the rig count to one in May 2020 in response to the sharp decline in crude oil prices. We added a second operated rig in the Bakken in February 2021, a third operated rig in September 2021 and a fourth operated rig in July 2022. During 2023, we plan to operate four rigs, drill approximately 110 wells and bring approximately 110 wells on production. We forecast net production from the Bakken to be in the range of 165,000 boepd to 170,000 boepd in 2023. • In the Gulf of Mexico, net production averaged 31,000 boepd in 2022 (2021: 45,000 boepd). Net production was lower in 2022 primarily due to field decline and unplanned downtime at the Tubular Bells, Penn State and Llano Fields. For 2023, net production from the Gulf of Mexico is expected to be approximately 30,000 boepd. • At the Stabroek Block (Hess 30%), offshore Guyana, net production from the Liza Destiny and Unity FPSOs totaled 78,000 bopd in 2022 (2021: 30,000 bopd). The Liza Unity FPSO, which commenced production in February 2022, reached its production capacity of approximately 220,000 gross bopd in July 2022. In the third quarter of 2022, we used the remainder of our previously generated Guyana net operating loss carryforwards and started incurring a current income tax liability. Pursuant to the contractual arrangements of the petroleum agreement, a portion of gross production from the block, separate from the joint venture partners' (Co-Venturers) cost oil and profit oil entitlement, is used to satisfy the Co-Venturers’ income tax liability. This portion of gross production, referred to as tax barrels, is recognized as Co-Venturer production volumes and estimated proved reserves. Net production from Guyana in 2022 included 7,000 bopd of tax barrels (2021: 0 bopd). For 2023, we forecast net production to be approximately 100,000 bopd, which includes approximately 10,000 bopd of tax barrels. The third development, Payara, was sanctioned in 2020 and will utilize the Prosperity FPSO, which will have an expected production capacity of approximately 220,000 gross bopd, with first production expected by the end of 2023. Ten drill centers with a total of 41 wells are planned, including 20 production wells and 21 injection wells. A fourth development, Yellowtail, was sanctioned in April 2022 and will utilize the ONE GUYANA FPSO with an expected production capacity of approximately 250,000 gross bopd, with first production expected in 2025. Six drill centers are planned with up to 26 production wells and 25 injection wells. k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 6 2 26 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 26 3/1/23 2:38 PM 26 27 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:46PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 121285 10k 27 A fifth development, Uaru, was submitted to the Government of Guyana for approval in the fourth quarter of 2022.

In 2023, the operator plans to utilize six drillships to drill approximately ten exploration and appraisal wells in addition to development wells for the sanctioned developments. • In the Gulf of Thailand, net production from Block A-18 of the JDA averaged 38,000 boepd in 2022 (2021: 36,000 boepd), including contribution from unitized acreage in Malaysia, while net production from North Malay Basin averaged 26,000 boepd in 2022 (2021: 25,000 boepd). In 2023, we forecast net production from North Malay Basin and JDA combined to be in the range of 60,000 boepd to 65,000 boepd. • In Libya, we completed the sale of our interest in the Waha Concession in November for net proceeds of $150 million and recognized a pre-tax gain of $76 million ($76 million after income taxes). Net production from Libya was 17,000 boepd in 2022. The following is an update of significant Midstream activities during 2022: • In April 2022, Hess Midstream completed an underwritten public offering of approximately 10.2 million Class A shares held by Hess and GIP. As a result of this transaction, Hess received net proceeds of $146 million. • Concurrent with the April 2022 public offering, HESM Opco repurchased approximately 13.6 million Class B units held by Hess and GIP for $400 million, with Hess receiving net proceeds of $200 million. HESM Opco issued $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.500% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes due 2030 in a private offering to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility used to finance the repurchase. Our business planning includes actions we expect to undertake to continue reducing our carbon footprint consistent with our targets.

For 2023, we have hedged 80,000 bopd with WTI put options with an average monthly floor price of $70 per barrel, and 10,000 bopd with Brent put options with an average monthly floor price of $75 per barrel. Consolidated Results Net income attributable to Hess Corporation was $2,096 million in 2022 compared with $559 million in 2021. Excluding items affecting comparability of earnings between periods summarized on page 29, adjusted net income was $2,176 million in 2022 compared with $677 million in 2021. Net production averaged 344,000 boepd in 2022 and 315,000 boepd in 2021. The average realized crude oil price, including the effect of hedging, was $85.76 per barrel in 2022 and $60.08 per barrel in 2021. Total proved reserves were 1,256 million boe and 1,309 million boe at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Significant 2022 Activities E&P assets: The following is an update of significant E&P activities during 2022: • In North Dakota, net production from the Bakken shale play averaged 154,000 boepd in 2022 (2021: 156,000 boepd). Net production was lower in 2022 primarily due to unplanned production shut-ins caused by severe winter weather partially offset by increased wells on-line. We drilled 78 wells and brought 69 wells on production in 2022, bringing the total operated production wells to 1,664 at December 31, 2022. Prior to COVID-19, we were operating six rigs in the Bakken, but reduced the rig count to one in May 2020 in response to the sharp decline in crude oil prices. We added a second operated rig in the Bakken in February 2021, a third operated rig in September 2021 and a fourth operated rig in July 2022. During 2023, we plan to operate four rigs, drill approximately 110 wells and bring approximately 110 wells on production. We forecast net production from the Bakken to be in the range of 165,000 boepd to 170,000 boepd in 2023. • In the Gulf of Mexico, net production averaged 31,000 boepd in 2022 (2021: 45,000 boepd). Net production was lower in 2022 primarily due to field decline and unplanned downtime at the Tubular Bells, Penn State and Llano Fields. For 2023, net production from the Gulf of Mexico is expected to be approximately 30,000 boepd. • At the Stabroek Block (Hess 30%), offshore Guyana, net production from the Liza Destiny and Unity FPSOs totaled 78,000 bopd in 2022 (2021: 30,000 bopd). The Liza Unity FPSO, which commenced production in February 2022, reached its production capacity of approximately 220,000 gross bopd in July 2022. In the third quarter of 2022, we used the remainder of our previously generated Guyana net operating loss carryforwards and started incurring a current income tax liability. Pursuant to the contractual arrangements of the petroleum agreement, a portion of gross production from the block, separate from the joint venture partners' (Co-Venturers) cost oil and profit oil entitlement, is used to satisfy the Co-Venturers’ income tax liability. This portion of gross production, referred to as tax barrels, is recognized as Co-Venturer production volumes and estimated proved reserves. Net production from Guyana in 2022 included 7,000 bopd of tax barrels (2021: 0 bopd). For 2023, we forecast net production to be approximately 100,000 bopd, which includes approximately 10,000 bopd of tax barrels. The third development, Payara, was sanctioned in 2020 and will utilize the Prosperity FPSO, which will have an expected production capacity of approximately 220,000 gross bopd, with first production expected by the end of 2023. Ten drill centers with a total of 41 wells are planned, including 20 production wells and 21 injection wells. A fourth development, Yellowtail, was sanctioned in April 2022 and will utilize the ONE GUYANA FPSO with an expected production capacity of approximately 250,000 gross bopd, with first production expected in 2025. Six drill centers are planned with up to 26 production wells and 25 injection wells. 26 27 27 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 27 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:47PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 7 2 3/1/23 2:38 PM 121285 10k 28 Midstream........................................................................................................................................

Selling Prices: Average worldwide realized crude oil selling prices, including hedging, were 43% higher in 2022 compared with the prior year, primarily due to the increase in Brent and WTI crude oil prices. In addition, realized worldwide selling prices for NGL increased in 2022 by 15% and worldwide natural gas prices increased in 2022 by 23%, compared with the prior year. In total, higher realized selling prices improved after-tax results by approximately $1,490 million, compared with 2021.

Excluding these fees worldwide selling prices for 2022 would be $89.50 per barrel for crude oil (including hedging) (2021: $64.25; 2020: $47.54), $97.89 per barrel for crude oil (excluding hedging) (2021: $68.07; 2020: $38.78), $35.44 per barrel for NGL (2021: $30.61; 2020: $11.29) and $5.76 per mcf for natural gas (2021: $4.71; 2020: $3.11). (b) Other includes our interests in Libya (sold in November 2022) and Denmark (sold in August 2021). Crude oil hedging activities in 2022 were a net loss of $585 million before and after income taxes, and a net loss of $243 million before and after income taxes in 2021. For 2023, we have hedged 80,000 bopd with WTI put options with an average monthly floor price of $70 per barrel, and 10,000 bopd with Brent put options with an average monthly floor price of $75 per barrel. We expect option premium amortization, which will be reflected in realized selling prices, to reduce our results by approximately $30 million in the first quarter and by approximately $140 million for the full year 2023. 30 31 31 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 31 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:47PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 1 3 3/1/23 2:38 PM 3 2 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k Production Volumes: Our daily worldwide net production was as follows: 121285 10k 32 2022 2021 2020 (In thousands) Crude Oil – Barrels United States North Dakota .............................................................................................................................

Marketing, including purchased oil and gas (Marketing expense): Marketing expense is mainly comprised of costs to purchase crude oil, NGL and natural gas from our partners in Hess operated wells or other third parties, primarily in the U.S., and transportation and other distribution costs for U.S. and Guyana marketing activities. Marketing expense was higher in 2022 compared to 2021 primarily due to higher third party crude oil volumes purchased and higher prices paid for purchased volumes. Marketing expense in 2021 included $173 million related to the cost of 4.2 million barrels of crude oil stored on two VLCCs in 2020 that were sold in 2021. Cash Operating Costs: Cash operating costs consist of operating costs and expenses, production and severance taxes and E&P general and administrative expenses. Cash operating costs increased primarily due to the production ramp up in Guyana from the Liza Unity FPSO, higher production and severance taxes associated with higher crude oil prices, increased maintenance activity in North Dakota, and higher workover costs in the Gulf of Mexico. On a per-unit basis, cash operating costs in 2022 reflect the higher costs partially offset by the impact of the higher production volumes compared with 2021. Midstream Tariffs Expense: Tariffs expense increased from 2021, primarily due to higher throughput volumes and minimum volume commitments in 2022. In 2023, we estimate Midstream tariffs expense to be in the range of $1,230 million to $1,250 million. Crude oil and natural gas liquids as a share of total production .......................................................... 72 % 69 % 72 % DD&A Expense: DD&A expense and per-unit rates were higher in 2022 compared with 2021 primarily due to higher production (a) In November 2020, we sold our working interest in the Shenzi Field in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico. Net production from the Shenzi Field was 9,000 boepd for the year ended December 31, 2020. (b) Other includes our interests in Libya (sold in November 2022) and Denmark (sold in August 2021). Net production from Libya was 17,000 boepd for 2022 (2021: 20,000 boepd; 2020: 4,000 boepd). Net production from Denmark was 3,000 boepd for 2021 and 6,000 boepd for 2020. In 2023, we expect net production to be in the range of 355,000 boepd to 365,000 boepd, compared with 2022 net production of 327,000 boepd, proforma for assets sold. Net production variances related to 2022 and 2021 are summarized as follows: United States: North Dakota net production was lower in 2022 by 2,000 boepd primarily due to unplanned production shut-ins caused by severe winter weather partially offset by increased wells on-line. Total offshore net production was lower in 2022 primarily due to field decline and unplanned downtime at the Tubular Bells, Penn State, and Llano Fields. from Guyana following the startup of Liza Phase 2 in February 2022.

Income tax expense from Libya operations was $527 million in 2022 compared with $436 million in 2021. We are generally not recognizing deferred tax benefit or expense in certain countries, primarily the United States (non-Midstream) and Malaysia, while we maintain valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets in these jurisdictions in accordance with the requirements of GAAP. On August 16, 2022 the United States enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which includes a 15% book-income alternative minimum tax on corporations with average adjusted financial statement income over $1 billion for any 3-year period ending with 2022 or later and a 1% excise tax on the fair market value of stock that is repurchased by publicly traded U.S. corporations. The alternative minimum tax and the excise tax are effective in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022. The alternative minimum tax is designed to be a temporary acceleration of cash tax as amounts paid under such regime are creditable against the regular U.S. corporate income tax liability in following tax years. The impact of the excise tax provision will be reflected as a component of the cost of the repurchased shares and will be dependent on the extent of share repurchases made in future periods. We continue to evaluate the corporate alternative minimum tax and its potential impact on our future U.S. tax expense, cash taxes, and effective tax rate, as well as any other impacts the IRA may have on our financial position and results of operations.

Income tax expense from Libya operations was $527 million in 2022 compared with $436 million in 2021. We are generally not recognizing deferred tax benefit or expense in certain countries, primarily the United States (non-Midstream) and Malaysia, while we maintain valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets in these jurisdictions in accordance with the requirements of GAAP. 3 5 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k On August 16, 2022 the United States enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which includes a 15% book-income alternative minimum tax on corporations with average adjusted financial statement income over $1 billion for any 3-year period ending with 2022 or later and a 1% excise tax on the fair market value of stock that is repurchased by publicly traded U.S. corporations. The alternative minimum tax and the excise tax are effective in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022. The alternative minimum tax is designed to be a temporary acceleration of cash tax as amounts paid under such regime are creditable against the regular U.S. corporate income tax liability in following tax years. The impact of the excise tax provision will be reflected as a component of the cost of the repurchased shares and will be dependent on the extent of share repurchases made in future periods. We continue to evaluate the corporate alternative minimum tax and its potential impact on our future U.S. tax expense, cash taxes, and effective tax rate, as well as any other impacts the IRA may have on our financial position and results of operations.

Net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities increased from 2021 primarily due to higher realized selling prices and higher sales volumes. Changes in operating assets and liabilities in 2022 reduced net cash provided by operating activities by $1,177 million (2021: $101 million) reflecting payments of approximately $470 million for accrued Libyan income tax and royalties at December 31, 2021, premiums paid for crude oil hedge contracts, payments for abandonment activities, and the purchase of REDD+ carbon credits. Investing Activities: Additions to Property, Plant and Equipment were $2,725 million in 2022 (2021: $1,747 million).

(b) This credit facility may only be utilized by HESM Opco and is non-recourse to Hess Corporation. Hess Corporation: In July 2022, we replaced our $3.5 billion revolving credit facility expiring in May 2024 with a new $3.25 billion revolving credit facility maturing in July 2027. The new facility, which is fully undrawn, can be used for borrowings and letters of credit. Borrowings on the new facility will generally bear interest at 1.400% above SOFR, though the interest rate is subject to adjustment based on the credit rating of the Corporation's senior, unsecured, non-credit enhanced long-term debt. At December 31, 2022, Hess Corporation had no outstanding borrowings or letters of credit under its revolving credit facility. In 2020, we entered into a $1 billion three year term loan agreement with a maturity date of March 16, 2023. Borrowings under the term loan generally bear interest at LIBOR plus an initial applicable margin of 2.25%. In July 2021, we repaid $500 million of the term loan, and in February 2022, we repaid the remaining $500 million. The revolving credit facility is subject to customary representations, warranties, customary events of default and covenants, including a financial covenant limiting the ratio of Total Consolidated Debt to Total Capitalization of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries to 65%, and a financial covenant limiting the ratio of secured debt to Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries to 15% (as these capitalized terms are defined in the credit agreement for the revolving credit facility). The indentures for the Corporation's fixed-rate senior unsecured notes limit the ratio of secured debt to Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (as that term is defined in the indentures) to 15%. As of December 31, 2022, Hess Corporation was in compliance with these financial covenants. The most restrictive of the financial covenants relating to our fixed-rate senior unsecured notes and our revolving credit facility would allow us to borrow up to an additional $2,146 million of secured debt at December 31, 2022. We have a shelf registration under which we may issue additional debt securities, warrants, common stock or preferred stock. Midstream: In July 2022, HESM Opco, a consolidated subsidiary of Hess Midstream LP, amended and restated its credit agreement for its $1.4 billion senior secured syndicated credit facilities, consisting of a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility and a $400 million term loan facility. The amended and restated credit agreement, among other things, extended the maturity date from December 2024 to July 2027, increased the accordion feature to up to an additional $750 million, which does not represent a lending commitment from the lenders, and replaced LIBOR as the benchmark interest rate with SOFR. Borrowings under the term loan facility will generally bear interest at SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.650% to 2.550%, while the applicable margin for the syndicated revolving credit facility ranges from 1.375% to 2.050%. Pricing levels for the facility fee and interest-rate margins are based on HESM Opco’s ratio of total debt to EBITDA (as defined in the credit facilities). If HESM Opco obtains an investment grade credit rating, the pricing levels will be based on HESM Opco’s credit ratings in effect from time to time. The credit facilities contain covenants that require HESM Opco to maintain a ratio of total debt to EBITDA (as defined in the credit facilities) for the prior four fiscal quarters of not greater than 5.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (5.50 to 1.00 during the specified period following certain acquisitions) and, prior to HESM Opco obtaining an investment grade credit rating, a ratio of secured debt to EBITDA for the prior four fiscal quarters of not greater than 4.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. The credit facilities are secured by first-priority perfected liens on substantially all of the assets of HESM Opco and its direct and indirect wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries, including equity interests directly owned by such entities, subject to certain customary exclusions. At December 31, 2022, borrowings of $18 million were drawn under HESM Opco’s revolving credit facility, and borrowings of $400 million, excluding deferred issuance costs, were drawn under HESM Opco’s Term Loan A facility. Borrowings under these credit facilities are non-recourse to Hess Corporation. All three major credit rating agencies that rate the senior unsecured debt of Hess Corporation have assigned an investment grade credit rating. In June 2022, Moody’s Investors Service upgraded our senior unsecured ratings from Ba1 to Baa3 with a stable outlook. In March 2022, Standard and Poor’s Ratings Services affirmed our credit rating at BBB- with stable outlook. Fitch Ratings affirmed our BBB- credit rating with a positive outlook in August 2022. At December 31, 2022, HESM Opco’s senior unsecured debt is rated BB+ by Standard and Poor’s Ratings Services and Fitch Ratings, and Ba2 by Moody’s Investors Service.

Crude Oil and Natural Gas Reserves: The determination of estimated proved reserves is a significant element in arriving at the results of operations of E&P activities. The estimates of proved reserves affect well capitalizations, the unit of production depreciation rates of proved properties and wells and equipment, as well as impairment testing of oil and gas assets. For reserves to be booked as proved they must be determined with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from known reservoirs under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations. In addition, government and project operator approvals must be obtained and, depending on the amount of the project cost, senior management or the Board of Directors must commit to fund the project. We maintain our own internal reserve estimates that are calculated by technical staff that work directly with the oil and gas properties. Our technical staff update reserve estimates throughout the year based on evaluations of new wells, performance reviews, new technical data and other studies. To provide consistency throughout the Corporation, standard reserve estimation guidelines, definitions, reporting reviews and approval practices are used. The internal reserve estimates are subject to internal technical audits and senior management review. We also engage an independent third-party consulting firm to audit approximately 80% of our total proved reserves each year. Proved reserves are calculated using the average price during the twelve-month period ending December 31 determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the price on the first day of each month within the year, unless prices are defined by contractual agreements, excluding escalations based on future conditions. As discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors, crude oil prices are volatile which can have an impact on our proved reserves. Crude oil prices used in the determination of proved reserves at December 31, 2022 were $94.13 per barrel for WTI (2021: $66.34) and $97.98 per barrel for Brent (2021: $68.92). At December 31, 2022, spot prices closed at $80.26 per barrel for WTI and $81.33 per barrel for Brent. If crude oil prices in 2023 are at levels below that used in determining 2022 proved reserves, we may recognize negative revisions to our December 31, 2023 proved undeveloped reserves. In addition, we may recognize negative revisions to proved developed reserves, which can vary significantly by asset due to differing operating cost structures. Conversely, price increases in 2023 above those used in determining 2022 proved reserves could result in positive revisions to proved developed and proved undeveloped reserves at December 31, 2023. It is difficult to estimate the magnitude of any potential net negative or positive change in proved reserves at December 31, 2023, due to numerous currently unknown factors, including 2023 crude oil prices, the amount of any additions to proved reserves, positive or negative revisions in proved reserves related to 2023 reservoir performance, the levels to which industry costs will change in response to 2023 crude oil prices, and management’s plans as of December 31, 2023 for developing proved undeveloped reserves. A 10% change in proved developed and proved undeveloped reserves at December 31, 2022 would result in an approximate $175 million pre-tax change in depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense for 2023 based on projected production volumes. See the Supplementary Oil and Gas Data on pages 87 through 96 in the accompanying financial statements for additional information on our oil and gas reserves. Impairment of Long-lived Assets: We review long-lived assets, including oil and gas fields, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recovered. Long-lived assets are tested based on identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. If the carrying amounts of the long-lived assets are not expected to be recovered by estimated undiscounted future net cash flows, the assets are impaired and an impairment loss is recorded. The amount of impairment is measured based on the estimated fair value of the assets generally determined by discounting anticipated future net cash flows, an income valuation approach, or by a market-based valuation approach, which are Level 3 fair value measurements. In the case of oil and gas fields, the present value of future net cash flows is based on management’s best estimate of future prices, which is determined with reference to recent historical prices and published forward prices, applied to projected production volumes and discounted at a risk-adjusted rate. The projected production volumes represent reserves, including probable reserves, expected to be produced based on a stipulated amount of capital expenditures. The production volumes, prices and timing of production are consistent with internal projections and other externally reported information. Oil and gas prices used for determining asset impairment will generally differ from those used in the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, since the standardized measure requires the use of historical twelve-month average prices. Our impairment tests of long-lived E&P producing assets are based on our best estimates of future production volumes (including recovery factors), selling prices, operating and capital costs, the timing of future production and other factors, which are updated each time an impairment test is performed. We could experience an impairment in the future if one or a combination of the following occur: the projected production volumes from oil and gas fields decrease, crude oil and natural gas selling prices decline significantly for an extended period or future estimated capital and operating costs increase significantly. As a result of the significant decline in crude oil prices due to the economic slowdown from COVID-19, we reviewed our oil and gas fields and midstream operating segment asset groups for impairment at March 31, 2020. We impaired various oil and gas fields located in Malaysia, Denmark, and the Gulf of Mexico in the first quarter of 2020 primarily as a result of a lower long-term crude oil price outlook. See Note 12, Impairment and Other in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further details. Hess Midstream LP: We consolidate the activities of our interest in Hess Midstream LP, which qualifies as a variable interest entity (VIE) under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE, as defined in the accounting standards, since we have the power through Hess Corporation’s approximate 41% consolidated ownership interest in Hess Midstream LP to direct those activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Hess Midstream LP, and are obligated to absorb losses or have the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to Hess Midstream LP. This conclusion was based on a qualitative analysis that considered Hess Midstream LP’s governance structure, the commercial agreements between Hess Midstream LP and us, and the voting rights established between the members, which provide us the ability to control the operations of Hess Midstream LP. Income Taxes: Judgments are required in the determination and recognition of income tax assets and liabilities in the financial statements. These judgments include the requirement to recognize the financial statement effect of a tax position only when management believes it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. We have net operating loss carryforwards or credit carryforwards in multiple jurisdictions and have recorded deferred tax assets for those losses and credits. Additionally, we have deferred tax assets due to temporary differences between the book basis and tax basis of certain assets and liabilities. Regular assessments are made as to the likelihood of those deferred tax assets being realized. If, when tested under the relevant accounting standards, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is expected to be realized. The accounting standards require the evaluation of all available positive and negative evidence giving weight based on the In evaluating potential sources of positive evidence, we consider the reversal of taxable temporary evidence’s relative objectivity. differences, taxable income in carryback and carryforward periods, the availability of tax planning strategies, the existence of appreciated assets, estimates of future taxable income, and other factors. Estimates of future taxable income are based on assumptions of oil and gas reserves, selling prices, and other subjective operating assumptions that are consistent with internal business forecasts. In evaluating potential sources of negative evidence, we consider a cumulative loss in recent years, any history of operating losses or tax credit carryforwards expiring unused, losses expected in early future years, unsettled circumstances that, if unfavorably resolved, would adversely affect future operations and profit levels on a continuing basis in future years, and any carryback or carryforward period so brief that a significant deductible temporary difference expected to reverse in a single year would limit realization of tax benefits. We remained in a recent cumulative loss position in the United States (non-Midstream) and Malaysia at December 31, 2022. A recent cumulative loss constitutes objective negative evidence to which the accounting standards require we assign significant weight relative to subjective evidence such as our estimates of future taxable income. We are generally not recognizing deferred tax benefit or expense in certain countries, primarily the United States (non-Midstream), and Malaysia, while we maintain valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets in these jurisdictions. At December 31, 2022, the Consolidated Balance Sheet reflects a $3,658 million valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets for multiple jurisdictions based on the evaluation of the accounting standards described above. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight can be given to subjective evidence. There is a reasonable possibility that if anticipated future earnings come to fruition and no other unforeseen negative evidence materializes, sufficient positive evidence may become available to support the release of all or a portion of the Company's valuation allowance in these jurisdictions in the near term. This would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period in which the release is recorded. Asset Retirement Obligations: We have legal obligations to remove and dismantle long-lived assets and to restore land or seabed In addition, the fair value of any legally required conditional asset retirement obligation is at certain E&P locations. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, we recognize a liability for the fair value of required asset retirement obligations. recorded if the liability can be reasonably estimated. We capitalize such costs as a component of the carrying amount of the underlying assets in the period in which the liability is incurred. depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. We estimate the fair value of these obligations by discounting projected future payments that will be required to satisfy the obligations. In determining these estimates, we are required to make several assumptions and judgments related to the scope of dismantlement, timing of settlement, interpretation of legal requirements, inflationary factors and discount rate. In addition, there are other external factors, which could significantly affect the ultimate settlement costs or timing for these obligations including changes in environmental regulations and other statutory requirements, fluctuations in industry costs and foreign currency exchange rates and advances in technology. As a result, our estimates of asset retirement obligations are subject to revision due to the factors described above. Changes in estimates prior to settlement result in adjustments to both the liability and related asset values, unless the field has ceased production, in which case changes are recognized in our Consolidated Statement of Income. See Note 8, Asset Retirement Obligations. In subsequent periods, the liability is accreted, and the asset is Retirement Plans: We have funded non-contributory defined benefit pension plans, an unfunded supplemental pension plan and an unfunded postretirement medical plan. We recognize the net change in the funded status of the projected benefit obligation for these plans in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The determination of the obligations and expenses related to these plans are based on several actuarial assumptions. These assumptions represent estimates made by us, some of which can be affected by external factors. The most significant assumptions relate to: k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 0 4 40 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 40 3/1/23 2:39 PM 40 41 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:48PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 4 1 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k for sales contracts with customers, negotiations with governments, operators and contractors and firm plans for additional drilling and other factors. Crude Oil and Natural Gas Reserves: The determination of estimated proved reserves is a significant element in arriving at the results of operations of E&P activities. The estimates of proved reserves affect well capitalizations, the unit of production depreciation rates of proved properties and wells and equipment, as well as impairment testing of oil and gas assets. For reserves to be booked as proved they must be determined with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from known reservoirs under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations. In addition, government and project operator approvals must be obtained and, depending on the amount of the project cost, senior management or the Board of Directors must commit to fund the project. We maintain our own internal reserve estimates that are calculated by technical staff that work directly with the oil and gas properties. Our technical staff update reserve estimates throughout the year based on evaluations of new wells, performance reviews, new technical data and other studies. To provide consistency throughout the Corporation, standard reserve estimation guidelines, definitions, reporting reviews and approval practices are used. The internal reserve estimates are subject to internal technical audits and senior management review. We also engage an independent third-party consulting firm to audit approximately 80% of our total proved reserves each year. closed at $80.26 per barrel for WTI and $81.33 per barrel for Brent. Proved reserves are calculated using the average price during the twelve-month period ending December 31 determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the price on the first day of each month within the year, unless prices are defined by contractual agreements, excluding escalations based on future conditions. As discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors, crude oil prices are volatile which can have an impact on our proved reserves. Crude oil prices used in the determination of proved reserves at December 31, 2022 were $94.13 per barrel for WTI (2021: $66.34) and $97.98 per barrel for Brent (2021: $68.92). At December 31, 2022, spot prices If crude oil prices in 2023 are at levels below that used in determining 2022 proved reserves, we may recognize negative revisions to our December 31, 2023 proved undeveloped reserves. In addition, we may recognize negative revisions to proved developed reserves, which can vary significantly by asset due to differing operating cost structures. Conversely, price increases in 2023 above those used in determining 2022 proved reserves could result in It is difficult to estimate the magnitude of any potential net negative or positive change in proved reserves at December 31, 2023, due to numerous currently unknown factors, including 2023 crude oil prices, the amount of any additions to proved reserves, positive or negative revisions in proved reserves related to 2023 reservoir performance, the levels to which industry costs will change in response to 2023 crude oil prices, and management’s plans as of December 31, 2023 for developing proved undeveloped reserves. A 10% change in proved developed and proved undeveloped reserves at December 31, 2022 would result in an approximate $175 million pre-tax change in depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense for 2023 based on projected production volumes. See the Supplementary Oil and positive revisions to proved developed and proved undeveloped reserves at December 31, 2023. Gas Data on pages 87 through 96 in the accompanying financial statements for additional information on our oil and gas reserves. Impairment of Long-lived Assets: We review long-lived assets, including oil and gas fields, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recovered. Long-lived assets are tested based on identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. If the carrying amounts of the long-lived assets are not expected to be recovered by estimated undiscounted future net cash flows, the assets are impaired and an impairment loss is recorded. The amount of impairment is measured based on the estimated fair value of the assets generally determined by discounting anticipated future net cash flows, an income valuation approach, or by a market-based valuation approach, which are Level 3 fair value measurements. In the case of oil and gas fields, the present value of future net cash flows is based on management’s best estimate of future prices, which is determined with reference to recent historical prices and published forward prices, applied to projected production volumes and discounted at a risk-adjusted rate. The projected production volumes represent reserves, including probable reserves, expected to be produced based on a stipulated amount of capital expenditures. The production volumes, prices and timing of production are consistent with internal projections and other externally reported information. Oil and gas prices used for determining asset impairment will generally differ from those used in the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, since the standardized measure requires the use of historical twelve-month average prices. Our impairment tests of long-lived E&P producing assets are based on our best estimates of future production volumes (including recovery factors), selling prices, operating and capital costs, the timing of future production and other factors, which are updated each time an impairment test is performed. We could experience an impairment in the future if one or a combination of the following occur: the projected production volumes from oil and gas fields decrease, crude oil and natural gas selling prices decline significantly for an extended period or future estimated capital and operating costs increase significantly. As a result of the significant decline in crude oil prices due to the economic slowdown from COVID-19, we reviewed our oil and gas fields and midstream operating segment asset groups for impairment at March 31, 2020. We impaired various oil and gas fields located in Malaysia, Denmark, and the Gulf of Mexico in the first quarter of 2020 primarily as a result of a lower long-term crude oil price outlook. See Note 12, Impairment and Other in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further details. 121285 10k 41 Hess Midstream LP: We consolidate the activities of our interest in Hess Midstream LP, which qualifies as a variable interest entity (VIE) under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE, as defined in the accounting standards, since we have the power through Hess Corporation’s approximate 41% consolidated ownership interest in Hess Midstream LP to direct those activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Hess Midstream LP, and are obligated to absorb losses or have the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to Hess Midstream LP. This conclusion was based on a qualitative analysis that considered Hess Midstream LP’s governance structure, the commercial agreements between Hess Midstream LP and us, and the voting rights established between the members, which provide us the ability to control the operations of Hess Midstream LP. Income Taxes: Judgments are required in the determination and recognition of income tax assets and liabilities in the financial statements. These judgments include the requirement to recognize the financial statement effect of a tax position only when management believes it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. We have net operating loss carryforwards or credit carryforwards in multiple jurisdictions and have recorded deferred tax assets for those losses and credits. Additionally, we have deferred tax assets due to temporary differences between the book basis and tax basis of certain assets and liabilities. Regular assessments are made as to the likelihood of those deferred tax assets being realized. If, when tested under the relevant accounting standards, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is expected to be realized. The accounting standards require the evaluation of all available positive and negative evidence giving weight based on the evidence’s relative objectivity. In evaluating potential sources of positive evidence, we consider the reversal of taxable temporary differences, taxable income in carryback and carryforward periods, the availability of tax planning strategies, the existence of appreciated assets, estimates of future taxable income, and other factors. Estimates of future taxable income are based on assumptions of oil and gas reserves, selling prices, and other subjective operating assumptions that are consistent with internal business forecasts. In evaluating potential sources of negative evidence, we consider a cumulative loss in recent years, any history of operating losses or tax credit carryforwards expiring unused, losses expected in early future years, unsettled circumstances that, if unfavorably resolved, would adversely affect future operations and profit levels on a continuing basis in future years, and any carryback or carryforward period so brief that a significant deductible temporary difference expected to reverse in a single year would limit realization of tax benefits. We remained in a recent cumulative loss position in the United States (non-Midstream) and Malaysia at December 31, 2022. A recent cumulative loss constitutes objective negative evidence to which the accounting standards require we assign significant weight relative to subjective evidence such as our estimates of future taxable income. We are generally not recognizing deferred tax benefit or expense in certain countries, primarily the United States (non-Midstream), and Malaysia, while we maintain valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets in these jurisdictions. At December 31, 2022, the Consolidated Balance Sheet reflects a $3,658 million valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets for multiple jurisdictions based on the evaluation of the accounting standards described above. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight can be given to subjective evidence. There is a reasonable possibility that if anticipated future earnings come to fruition and no other unforeseen negative evidence materializes, sufficient positive evidence may become available to support the release of all or a portion of the Company's valuation allowance in these jurisdictions in the near term. This would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period in which the release is recorded. Asset Retirement Obligations: We have legal obligations to remove and dismantle long-lived assets and to restore land or seabed at certain E&P locations. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, we recognize a liability for the fair value of required asset retirement obligations. In addition, the fair value of any legally required conditional asset retirement obligation is recorded if the liability can be reasonably estimated. We capitalize such costs as a component of the carrying amount of the underlying assets in the period in which the liability is incurred. In subsequent periods, the liability is accreted, and the asset is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. We estimate the fair value of these obligations by discounting projected future payments that will be required to satisfy the obligations. In determining these estimates, we are required to make several assumptions and judgments related to the scope of dismantlement, timing of settlement, interpretation of legal requirements, inflationary factors and discount rate. In addition, there are other external factors, which could significantly affect the ultimate settlement costs or timing for these obligations including changes in environmental regulations and other statutory requirements, fluctuations in industry costs and foreign currency exchange rates and advances in technology. As a result, our estimates of asset retirement obligations are subject to revision due to the factors described above. Changes in estimates prior to settlement result in adjustments to both the liability and related asset values, unless the field has ceased production, in which case changes are recognized in our Consolidated Statement of Income. See Note 8, Asset Retirement Obligations. Retirement Plans: We have funded non-contributory defined benefit pension plans, an unfunded supplemental pension plan and an unfunded postretirement medical plan. We recognize the net change in the funded status of the projected benefit obligation for these plans in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The determination of the obligations and expenses related to these plans are based on several actuarial assumptions. These assumptions represent estimates made by us, some of which can be affected by external factors. The most significant assumptions relate to: k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 1 4 40 41 41 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 41 3/1/23 2:39 PM K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:48PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 4 2 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k 121285 10k 42 Discount rates used for measuring the present value of future plan obligations and net periodic benefit cost: The discount rates used to estimate our projected benefit obligations and net periodic benefit cost is based on a portfolio of high-quality, fixed income debt instruments with maturities that approximate the expected payment of plan obligations. At December 31, 2022, a 0.25% decrease in the discount rate assumptions would increase projected benefit obligations by approximately $65 million and would increase forecasted 2023 annual net periodic benefit expense by approximately $2 million. The increase in the projected benefit obligations would decrease the funded status of our pension plans, but any decrease in the funded status would be partially mitigated by increases in the fair value of fixed income investments in the asset portfolios. Expected long-term rates of returns on plan assets: The expected rate of return on plan assets is developed from the expected future returns for each asset category, weighted by the target allocation of plan assets to that asset category. The future expected rate of return assumptions for individual asset categories are largely based on inputs from various investment experts regarding their future return expectations for particular asset categories. At December 31, 2022, a 0.25% decrease in the expected long-term rates of return on plan assets assumption would increase forecasted 2023 annual net periodic benefit expense by approximately $5 million. Other assumptions include the rate of future increases in compensation levels and expected participant mortality. Derivatives: We utilize derivative instruments, including futures, forwards, options and swaps, individually or in combination to mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in the prices of crude oil and natural gas, as well as changes in interest and foreign currency exchange rates. All derivative instruments are recorded at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. Our policy for recognizing the changes in fair value of derivatives varies based on the designation of the derivative. The changes in fair value of derivatives that are not designated as hedges are recognized currently in earnings. Derivatives may be designated as hedges of expected future cash flows or forecasted transactions (cash flow hedges), or hedges of changes in fair value of recognized assets and liabilities or of unrecognized firm commitments (fair value hedges). Changes in fair value of derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Amounts included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the same period that the hedged item is recognized in earnings. Changes in fair value of derivatives designated as fair value hedges are recognized currently in earnings. The change in fair value of the related hedged item is recorded as an adjustment to its carrying amount and recognized currently in earnings. Fair Value Measurements: We use various valuation approaches in determining fair value for financial instruments, including the market and income approaches. Our fair value measurements also include non-performance risk and time value of money considerations. Counterparty credit is considered for financial assets, and our credit is considered for financial liabilities. We also record certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities at fair value when required by generally accepted accounting principles. These fair value measurements are recorded in connection with business combinations, qualifying non-monetary exchanges, the initial recognition of asset retirement obligations and any impairment of long-lived assets, equity method investments or goodwill. We determine fair value in accordance with the fair value measurements accounting standard which established a hierarchy for the inputs used to measure fair value based on the source of the inputs, which generally range from quoted prices for identical instruments in a principal trading market (Level 1) to estimates determined using related market data (Level 3), including discounted cash flows and other unobservable data. Measurements derived indirectly from observable inputs or from quoted prices from markets that are less liquid are considered Level 2. When Level 1 inputs are available within a particular market, those inputs are selected for determination of fair value over Level 2 or 3 inputs in the same market. Multiple inputs may be used to measure fair value; however, the level assigned to a fair value measurement is based on the lowest significant input level within this fair value hierarchy. Environment, Health and Safety Our long-term vision and values provide a foundation for how we do business and define our commitment to meeting high standards of corporate citizenship and creating a long lasting positive impact on the communities where we do business. Our strategy is reflected in our EHS & SR policies and by a management system framework that helps protect our workforce, customers and local communities. Our management systems are intended to promote internal consistency, adherence to policy objectives and continual improvement in EHS & SR performance. Improved performance may, in the short-term, increase our operating costs and could also require increased capital expenditures to reduce potential risks to our assets, reputation and license to operate. In addition to enhanced EHS & SR performance, improved productivity and operational efficiencies may be realized from investments in EHS & SR. We have programs in place to evaluate regulatory compliance, audit facilities, train employees, prevent and manage risks and emergencies and to generally meet corporate EHS & SR goals and objectives. Environmental Matters We recognize that climate change is a global environmental concern. We assess, monitor and take measures to reduce our carbon footprint at existing and planned operations. The EPA has adopted a series of GHG monitoring, reporting, and emissions control rules for the oil and natural gas industry, and the U.S. Congress has, from time to time, considered adopting further legislation to reduce GHG emissions. For example, in November 2021, the EPA proposed new regulations to establish comprehensive standards of In addition, the IRA includes a methane emissions reduction program for petroleum and natural gas systems, performance and emission guidelines for methane and volatile organic compound emissions from existing operations in the oil and gas sector, including the exploration and production, transmission, processing, and storage segments. The EPA issued a supplemental proposed rule on November 15, 2022, which provided additional information, including regulatory text, about the November 2021 proposed rule. The supplemental proposed rule would impose more stringent requirements than are currently applicable on the natural gas and oil industry. which requires the EPA to impose a “waste emissions charge” on excess methane emissions from certain natural gas and oil sources that are required to report under EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program beginning January 1, 2024 and also provides significant funding and incentives for research and development of competing low carbon energy production methods. Furthermore, states have taken measures to reduce emissions of GHGs, primarily through the development of GHG emission inventories and/or regional GHG cap-and-trade programs. At the international level, the Paris Agreement on climate change aimed to enhance global response to global temperature changes and to reduce GHG emissions, among other things. We are committed to complying with all GHG emissions regulations that apply to our operations, including those related to venting or flaring of natural gas, and the responsible management of GHG emissions at our facilities. While we monitor climate-related regulatory initiatives and international public policy issues, the current state of ongoing international climate initiatives and any related domestic actions make it difficult to assess the timing or effect on our operations or to predict with certainty the future costs that we may incur in order to comply with future international treaties, legislation or new regulations. However, future restrictions on emissions of GHGs, or related measures to encourage use of low carbon energy could result in higher capital expenditures and operating expenses for us and the oil and gas industry in general and may reduce demand for our products, as described under Regulatory, Legal and Environmental Risks in Item 1A. Risk Factors. We will have continuing expenditures for environmental assessment and remediation. Sites where corrective action may be necessary include E&P facilities, sites from discontinued operations where we retained liability and, although not currently significant, EPA “Superfund” sites where we have been named a potentially responsible party. We accrue for environmental assessment and remediation expenses when the future costs are probable and reasonably estimable. For additional information, see Item 3. Legal Proceedings. At December 31, 2022, our reserve for estimated remediation liabilities was approximately $55 million. We expect that existing reserves for environmental liabilities will adequately cover costs to assess and remediate known sites. Our remediation spending was approximately $23 million in 2022 (2021: $16 million; 2020: $15 million). The amount of other expenditures incurred to comply with federal, state, local and foreign country environmental regulations is difficult to quantify as such costs are captured as mostly indistinguishable components of our capital expenditures and operating expenses. As an element of our EHS and SR strategy, we purchase carbon credits annually to offset 100 percent of our estimated Scope 3 business travel emissions and 100 percent of our estimated Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions associated with operating the Corporation’s truck fleet, aviation activities (aircraft and helicopters) and personal and rental vehicle miles driven on company business. We also offset purchased electricity used in our operations from nonrenewable sources by purchasing renewable energy certificates. The cost of these purchased and retired renewable energy certificates was not material to our financial results in 2022 and was included in Operating costs and expenses in the Statement of Consolidated Income. In December 2022, we announced an agreement with the Government of Guyana to purchase 37.5 million REDD+ carbon credits, including current and future issuances, for a minimum of $750 million from 2022 through 2032 to prevent deforestation and support sustainable development in Guyana. These credits will be on the ART Registry and will be independently verified to represent permanent and additional emissions reductions under ART's REDD+ Environmental Standard 2.0 (TREES). This agreement adds to the Corporation's ongoing emissions reduction efforts and is an important part of our commitment to achieve net zero Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions on a net equity basis by 2050. In December 2022, we purchased 5 million REDD+ carbon credits registered on the ART Registry for $75 million under this agreement, which is included in non-current Other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Health and Safety Matters The crude oil and natural gas industry is regulated at federal, state, local and foreign government levels regarding the health and safety of E&P operations. Such laws and regulations relate to, among other matters, occupational safety, the use of hydraulic fracturing to stimulate crude oil and natural gas production, well control and integrity, process safety and equipment integrity, and may include permitting and disclosure requirements, operating restrictions and other conditions on the development of crude oil and natural gas. The level of our expenditures to comply with federal, state, local and foreign country health and safety regulations is difficult to quantify as such costs are captured as mostly indistinguishable components of our capital expenditures and operating expenses. While compliance with laws and regulations relating to health and safety matters increases the overall cost of business for us and the oil and gas industry in general, it has not had, to date, a material adverse effect on our operations, financial condition or results of operations. Occupational Safety: We are subject to the requirements set forth under federal workplace standards by the OSHA and comparable state statutes that regulate the protection of the health and safety of workers. Under OSHA and other federal and state occupational safety and health laws and laws of foreign countries in which we operate, we must develop, maintain and disclose certain information about hazardous materials used, released, or produced in our operations. k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 2 4 42 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 42 3/1/23 2:39 PM 42 43 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:48PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 Discount rates used for measuring the present value of future plan obligations and net periodic benefit cost: The discount rates used to estimate our projected benefit obligations and net periodic benefit cost is based on a portfolio of high-quality, fixed income debt instruments with maturities that approximate the expected payment of plan obligations.

Under OSHA and other federal and state occupational safety and health laws and laws of foreign countries in which we operate, we must develop, maintain and disclose certain information about hazardous materials used, released, or produced in our operations. k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 3 4 42 43 43 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 43 3/1/23 2:39 PM K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:48PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 121285 10k 44 4 4 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k Production and Well Integrity: Our U.S. onshore production facilities are subject to U.S. federal government, state and local regulations regarding the use of hydraulic fracturing and well control and integrity. Our offshore production facilities in the Gulf of Mexico are subject to the U.S. federal government’s Safety and Environmental Management System regulations, which provide a systematic approach for identifying, managing and mitigating hazards. Adapting to new technical standards and procedures in production and in our well integrity management system is fundamental to our aim of protecting the environment as well as the health and safety of our workforce and the communities in which we operate, and to safeguarding our product.

ICE are barriers and safeguards that prevent or mitigate process safety incidents through detection, isolation, containment, control or emergency preparedness and response within our facilities. We have established ICE performance standards, which set specific requirements and criteria for inspections and tests that help to ensure ICE barriers are effective.

For additional information on our emergency response and incident mitigation activities, see Emergency Preparedness and Response Plans and Procedures in Items 1 and 2. Business and Properties. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk In the normal course of our business, we are exposed to commodity risks related to changes in the prices of crude oil, NGL, and natural gas as well as changes in interest rates and foreign currency values. In the disclosures that follow, financial risk management activities refer to the mitigation of these risks through hedging activities. Controls: We maintain a control environment under the direction of our Chief Risk Officer. Controls over instruments used in financial risk management activities include volumetric and term limits. Our Treasury department is responsible for administering and monitoring foreign exchange rate and interest rate hedging programs using similar controls and processes, where applicable. Hedging strategies are reviewed annually by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Instruments: We primarily use forward commodity contracts, foreign exchange forward contracts, futures, swaps, and options in our risk management activities. These contracts are generally widely traded instruments with standardized terms. The following describes these instruments and how we use them: • Swaps: We use financially settled swap contracts with third parties as part of our financial risk management activities. Cash flows from swap contracts are determined based on underlying commodity prices, interest rates or foreign exchange rates and are typically settled over the life of the contract. • Forward Foreign Exchange Contracts: We enter into forward contracts, primarily for the British Pound and Malaysian Ringgit, which commit us to buy or sell a fixed amount of those currencies at a predetermined exchange rate on a future date. • Exchange-traded Contracts: We may use exchange-traded contracts, including futures, on a number of different underlying energy commodities. These contracts are settled daily with the relevant exchange and may be subject to exchange position limits. • Options: Options on various underlying energy commodities include exchange-traded and third-party contracts and have various exercise periods. As a purchaser of options, we pay a premium at the outset and are exposed to the favorable consequence of collecting payment upon exercise depending upon the underlying commodity price movement. As a seller of options, we receive a premium at the outset and are exposed to the unfavorable consequence of having to make payment upon exercise depending upon the underlying commodity price movement. Financial Risk Management Activities We have outstanding foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts totaling $177 million at December 31, 2022 that are used to reduce our exposure to fluctuating foreign exchange rates for various currencies. The change in fair value of foreign exchange contracts from a 10% strengthening or weakening in the U.S. Dollar exchange rate is estimated to be a gain or loss of approximately $20 million, respectively, at December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, our total long-term debt, which was substantially comprised of fixed-rate instruments, had a carrying value of $8,281 million and a fair value of $8,192 million. A 15% increase or decrease in interest rates would decrease or increase the fair value of debt by approximately $465 million or $515 million, respectively. Any changes in interest rates do not impact our cash outflows associated with fixed-rate interest payments or settlement of debt principal, unless a debt instrument is repurchased prior to maturity.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Corporation in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

Description of the Matter k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 8 4 Depreciation, depletion and amortization of proved oil and natural gas properties The net book value of the Corporation’s exploration and production assets was $11,917 million at December 31, 2022, and depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expense was $1,520 million for the year then ended. As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Corporation follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas exploration and production activities. Under this method, capitalized costs to acquire oil and natural gas properties are depreciated and depleted on a units-of-production basis based on estimated proved reserves. Capitalized costs of exploratory wells and development costs are depreciated and depleted on a units-of-production basis based on estimated proved developed reserves. Proved oil and gas reserves are prepared using standard geological and engineering methods generally recognized in the petroleum industry based on evaluations of estimated in- place hydrocarbon volumes using financial and non-financial inputs. Significant judgment is required by the Corporation’s internal engineering staff in interpreting the data used to estimate reserves. Estimating proved reserves also requires the selection and evaluation of inputs, including historical production, oil and natural gas price assumptions as well as future operating and capital costs assumptions, among others. Management used independent petroleum engineering specialists to audit approximately 89% of the Corporation's proved reserves at December 31, 2022 as prepared by the Corporation’s internal engineering staff. 48 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 48 3/1/23 2:39 PM 48 49 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:49PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Hess Corporation Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting We have audited Hess Corporation and consolidated subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria).

Management used independent petroleum engineering specialists to audit approximately 89% of the Corporation's proved reserves at December 31, 2022 as prepared by the Corporation’s internal engineering staff. 48 49 49 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 49 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:49PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 9 4 3/1/23 2:39 PM 121285 10k 50 5 0 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k Auditing the Corporation's DD&A expense calculation is especially complex because of the use of the work of the Corporation's internal engineering staff and the independent petroleum engineering specialists and the evaluation of management's determination of the inputs described above used by these engineering specialists in estimating proved oil and gas reserves. How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls that address the risks of material misstatement relating to the DD&A expense calculation. This included controls over the completeness and accuracy of the financial data used in estimating proved oil and gas reserves. Our testing of the Corporation’s DD&A expense calculation included, among other procedures, evaluating the professional qualifications and objectivity of the Corporation’s internal petroleum engineering specialist responsible for overseeing the preparation of the Corporation’s reserve estimates and of the independent petroleum engineering specialist used to audit the estimates. On a sample basis, we tested the completeness and accuracy of the financial data used in the estimation of proved oil and gas reserves by agreeing significant inputs to source documentation, where available, and assessing the inputs for reasonableness based on review of corroborative evidence and consideration of any contrary evidence. Additionally, we performed analytic and lookback procedures on select inputs into the oil and gas reserve estimate as well as on the outputs. Finally, we tested that the DD&A expense calculations are based on the appropriate proved oil and gas reserve balances from the Corporation’s reserve report.

We have certain long-term contracts with customers for the sale of U.S. natural gas and NGL Contracts with customers for the sale of international crude oil involve the short-term sale of volumes during a specified period. Pricing is determined with reference to a particular market or pricing index, plus or minus adjustments reflecting quality or location differentials, shortly after control of the volumes transfers to the customer. International contracts with customers for the sale of natural gas are in the form of natural gas sales agreements with government entities that have durations that are aligned with the durations of production sharing contracts or other contractual arrangements with host governments. Pricing is determined using contractual formulas that are based on the price of alternative fuels as obtained from price indices and other factors. Contract Balances: Our right to receive or collect payment from the customer is aligned with the timing of revenue recognition except in situations when we receive shortfall payments under contracts with take-or-pay provisions with customer make-up rights. Generally, we receive payments from customers on a monthly basis, shortly after the physical delivery of the crude oil, NGL, or natural gas. At December 31, 2022, contract liabilities of $24 million (2021: $24 million) resulted from a take-or-pay deficiency payment received in 2021 that is subject to a make-up period expiring in December 2023. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no contract assets. Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations: The transaction price allocated to our wholly unsatisfied performance obligations on uncompleted contracts is variable. Further, many of our contracts with customers have durations of less than twelve months. Accordingly, we have elected under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers, the exemption from disclosure of revenue recognizable in future periods as these performance obligations are satisfied. We exclude sales-based taxes that are collected from customers from the transaction price in our contracts with customers. Accordingly, revenue from contracts with customers is net of sales-based taxes that are collected from customers Sales-based Taxes: and remitted to taxing authorities.

Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Accounting Policies Unless the context indicates otherwise, references to “Hess”, “the Corporation”, “Registrant”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the consolidated business operations of Hess Corporation and its affiliates. that have remaining durations ranging from one to ten years. 121285 10k 56 Nature of Business: Hess Corporation, incorporated in the State of Delaware in 1920, is a global E&P company engaged in exploration, development, production, transportation, purchase and sale of crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas with production operations located in the United States (U.S.), Guyana, the Malaysia/Thailand Joint Development Area (JDA), and Malaysia. We conduct exploration activities primarily offshore Guyana, in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, and offshore Suriname and Canada. Our Midstream operating segment, which is comprised of Hess Corporation’s approximate 41% consolidated ownership interest in Hess Midstream LP at December 31, 2022 (see Note 4, Hess Midstream LP) provides fee-based services, including gathering, compressing and processing natural gas and fractionating NGL; gathering, terminaling, loading and transporting crude oil and NGL; storing and terminaling propane, and water handling services primarily in the Bakken shale play in the Williston Basin area of North Dakota. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hess Corporation and entities in which we own more than a 50% voting interest. We consolidate Hess Midstream LP, a variable interest entity, based on our conclusion that we have the power through Hess Corporation’s approximate 41% consolidated ownership interest in Hess Midstream LP to direct those activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Hess Midstream LP, and are obligated to absorb losses or have the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to Hess Midstream LP. Our undivided interests in unincorporated oil and gas E&P ventures are proportionately consolidated. Investments in affiliated companies, 20% to 50% owned and where we have the ability to influence the operating or financial decisions of the affiliate, are accounted for using the equity method. Estimates and Assumptions: In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and revenues and expenses in the Statement of Consolidated Income. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates made by management include oil and gas reserves, asset and other valuations, depreciable lives, post-retirement liabilities, legal and environmental obligations, asset retirement obligations and income taxes. Revenue Recognition: Exploration and Production The E&P segment recognizes revenue from the sale of crude oil, NGL, and natural gas as performance obligations under contracts with customers are satisfied. Our responsibilities to deliver each unit of quantity of crude oil, NGL, and natural gas under these contracts represent separate, distinct performance obligations. These performance obligations are satisfied at the point in time control of each unit of quantity transfers to the customer. Generally, the control of each unit of quantity transfers to the customer upon the transfer of legal title at the point of physical delivery. Pricing is variable and is determined with reference to a particular market or pricing index, plus or minus adjustments reflecting quality or location differentials. For long-term international natural gas contracts with ship-or-pay provisions, our obligation to stand-ready to provide a minimum volume over each commitment period represents separate, distinct performance obligations. Penalties owed against future deliveries of natural gas due to delivery of volumes below minimum delivery commitments are recognized as reductions to revenue in the commitment period when the shortfall occurs. Long-term international natural gas contracts may also contain take-or-pay provisions whereby the customer is required to pay for volumes not taken that are below minimum volume commitments, but the customer has certain make-up rights to receive shortfall volumes in subsequent periods. Shortfall payments received from customers when volumes purchased are below the minimum volume commitment are deferred upon receipt as a contract liability. Revenue is recognized at the earlier of when we deliver the make-up volumes in subsequent periods or when it becomes remote that the customer will exercise their make-up rights. Certain crude oil, NGL, and natural gas volumes are purchased by Hess from third parties, including working interest partners and royalty owners in certain Hess-operated properties, before they are sold to customers. Where control over the crude oil, NGL, or natural gas transfers to Hess before the volumes are transferred to the customer, revenue and the associated cost of purchased volumes are presented on a gross basis in the Statement of Consolidated Income within Sales and other operating revenues and Marketing, including purchased oil and gas, respectively. Where control of crude oil, NGL, or natural gas is not transferred to Hess, revenue is presented net of the associated cost of purchased volumes within Sales and other operating revenues in the Statement of Consolidated Income. In Guyana, the joint venture partners (Co-Venturers) to the Stabroek Block petroleum agreement are subject to the income tax laws of Guyana and remain primarily liable for income taxes due on the results of operations, resulting in recognition of income tax expense. Pursuant to the contractual arrangements of the petroleum agreement, a portion of gross production from the block, separate from the Co-Venturers’ cost oil and profit oil entitlement, is used to satisfy the Co- Venturers’ income tax liability. This portion of gross production, referred to as tax barrels, is included in our reported production volumes and is recognized as sales revenue from non-customers. Midstream Our Midstream segment provides gathering, compression, processing, fractionation, storage, terminaling, loading and transportation, and water handling services. The Midstream segment has multiple long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with certain subsidiaries of Hess, each generally with an initial ten-year term that can be extended for an additional ten-year term at the unilateral right of Hess Midstream. These contracts have minimum volumes the customer is obligated to provide each calendar quarter. The minimum volume commitments are subject to fluctuation based on nominations covering substantially all of our E&P segment’s production and projected third-party volumes that will be purchased in the Bakken. As the minimum volume commitments are subject to fluctuation, and as these contracts contain fee inflation escalators and fee recalculation mechanisms, substantially all of the transaction price at contract inception is variable. The Midstream segment also has long-term, fee based commercial agreements for water handling services with a subsidiary of Hess with an initial 14 year term that can be extended for an additional ten-year term at the unilateral right of Hess Midstream. Water handling services are provided for an agreed-upon fee per barrel or the reimbursement of third-party fees. The Midstream segment’s responsibilities to provide each of the above services for each year under each of the commercial agreements are considered separate, distinct performance obligations.

The Midstream segment has elected the practical expedient under the provisions of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers to recognize revenue in the amount it is entitled to invoice. If the commercial agreements have ship- or-pay provisions, the Midstream segment’s responsibility to stand-ready to service a minimum volume over each quarterly commitment period represent separate, distinct performance obligations. Shortfall payments received under ship-or-pay provisions are recognized as revenue in the calendar quarter the shortfall occurs as the customer does not have make-up rights beyond the calendar quarter end of the quarterly commitment period. All revenues, receivables, and contract balances arising from the commercial agreements between the Midstream segment and the Hess subsidiaries that are the counterparty to the commercial agreements are eliminated upon consolidation. On December 30, 2020, Hess Midstream exercised its renewal options to extend the terms of certain gas gathering, crude oil gathering, gas processing and fractionation, storage, and terminal and export commercial agreements for the secondary term through December 31, 2033. There were no changes to any provisions of the existing commercial agreements as a result of the exercise of the renewal options. Exploration and Development Costs: E&P activities are accounted for using the successful efforts method. Costs of acquiring unproved and proved oil and gas leasehold acreage, related costs are capitalized. Annual lease rentals, exploration expenses and exploratory dry hole costs are expensed as incurred. Costs of drilling and equipping productive wells, including development dry holes, and related production facilities are capitalized. including lease bonuses, brokers’ fees and other The costs of exploratory wells that find oil and gas reserves are capitalized pending determination of whether proved reserves have been found. Exploratory drilling costs remain capitalized after drilling is completed if (1) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify completion as a producing well and (2) sufficient progress is being made in assessing the reserves and the If either of those criteria is not met, or if there is substantial doubt about the economic and operational viability of the project. economic or operational viability of a project, the capitalized well costs are charged to expense. Indicators of sufficient progress in assessing reserves and the economic and operating viability of a project include commitment of project personnel, active negotiations for sales contracts with customers, negotiations with governments, operators and contractors, firm plans for additional drilling and other factors. Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization: We record depletion expense for acquisition costs of proved properties using the units of production method over proved oil and gas reserves. Depreciation and depletion expense for oil and gas production facilities and wells is calculated using the units of production method over proved developed oil and gas reserves. Provisions for impairment of undeveloped oil and gas leases are based on periodic evaluations and other factors. Depreciation of all other plant and equipment is determined on the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives. Capitalized Interest: Interest from external borrowings is capitalized on material projects using the weighted average cost of outstanding borrowings until the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, which for oil and gas assets is at first production from the field. Capitalized interest is depreciated in the same manner as the depreciation of the underlying assets. Impairment of Long-lived Assets: We review long-lived assets, including oil and gas fields, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recovered. If the carrying amounts of the long-lived assets are not expected to be recovered by estimated undiscounted future net cash flows, the assets are impaired and an impairment loss is recorded. The amount of impairment is measured based on the estimated fair value of the assets generally determined by discounting anticipated future net cash flows, an income valuation approach, or by a market-based valuation approach, which are Level 3 fair value measurements. In the case of oil and gas fields, the present value of future net cash flows is based on management’s best estimate of future prices, which is determined with reference to recent historical prices and published forward prices, applied to projected production volumes and discounted at a risk-adjusted rate. The projected production volumes represent reserves, including probable reserves, expected to be produced based on a projected amount of capital expenditures. The production volumes, prices and timing of production are consistent with internal projections and other externally reported information. Oil and gas prices used for determining asset impairment will generally differ from those used in the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows reported in Supplementary Oil and Gas Data, since the standardized measure requires the use of historical twelve-month average prices. Impairment of Goodwill: Goodwill is tested for impairment annually on October 1st or when events or circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss would be recorded for the excess of the carrying value over fair value, limited by the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. At December 31, 2022, goodwill of $360 million relates to the Midstream operating segment. Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents primarily comprises cash on hand and on deposit, as well as highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash and have maturities of three months or less when acquired. Inventories: Produced and unsold crude oil and NGL are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the average cost of production plus any transport cost incurred in bringing the volumes to their present location. Materials and supplies are valued at cost. Obsolete or surplus materials identified during periodic reviews are valued at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. Leases: We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception by evaluating whether the contract conveys the right to control an identified asset during the period of use. ROU assets represent our right to use an identified asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent our obligation to make payments as set forth in the lease arrangement. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as operating leases or finance leases at the commencement date based on the present value of the minimum lease payments over the lease term. Where the implicit discount rate in a lease is not readily determinable, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date for determining the present value of the minimum lease payments. The lease term used in measurement of our lease obligations includes options to extend or terminate the lease when, in our judgment, it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are included in the measurement of lease obligations using the index or rate at the commencement date. Variable lease payments that vary because of changes in facts or circumstances after the commencement date of the lease are not included in the minimum lease payments used to measure lease obligations. We have agreements that include financial obligations for lease and nonlease components. For purposes of measuring lease obligations, we have elected not to separate nonlease components from lease components for the following classes of assets: drilling rigs, office space, offshore vessels, and aircraft. We apply a portfolio approach to account for operating lease ROU assets and liabilities for certain vehicles, railcars, field equipment and office equipment leases. Finance lease cost is recognized as amortization of the ROU asset and interest expense on the lease liability. Operating lease cost is generally recognized on a straight-line basis. Operating lease costs for drilling rigs used to drill development wells and successful exploration wells are capitalized. Operating lease cost for other ROU assets used in oil and gas producing activities are either capitalized or expensed on a straight-line basis based on the nature of operation for which the ROU asset is utilized. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet as permitted under ASC 842, Leases. We recognize lease cost for short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Some of our leases with initial terms of 12 months or less include one or more options to renew. The renewal option is at our sole discretion and is not included in the lease term for measurement of the lease obligation unless we are reasonably certain at the commencement date of the lease, to renew the lease. Income Taxes: Deferred income taxes are determined using the liability method. We have net operating loss carryforwards or credit carryforwards in multiple jurisdictions and have recorded deferred tax assets for those losses and credits. Additionally, we have deferred tax assets due to temporary differences between the book basis and tax basis of certain assets and liabilities. Regular assessments are made as to the likelihood of those deferred tax assets being realized. If, when tested under the relevant accounting standards, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is expected to be realized. The accounting standards require the evaluation of all available positive and negative evidence giving weight based on the evidence’s relative objectivity. In evaluating potential sources of positive evidence, we consider the reversal of taxable temporary differences, taxable income in carryback and carryforward periods, the availability of tax planning strategies, the existence of appreciated assets, estimates of future taxable income, and other factors. In evaluating potential sources of negative evidence, we consider a cumulative loss in recent years, any history of operating losses or tax credit carryforwards expiring unused, losses expected in early future years, unsettled circumstances that, if unfavorably resolved, would adversely affect future operations and profit levels on a continuing basis in future years, and any carryback or carryforward period so brief that a significant deductible temporary difference expected to reverse in a single year would limit realization of tax benefits. We assign cumulative historical losses significant weight in the evaluation of realizability relative to more subjective evidence such as forecasts of future income. management believes that it is more likely than not, that based on the technical merits, the position will be sustained upon examination. We are no longer indefinitely reinvested with respect to the book in excess of tax basis in the investment in our foreign subsidiaries. Because of U.S. tax reform we expect that the future reversal of such temporary differences will occur free of material taxation. We classify interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as income tax expense. We account for the U.S. tax effect of global intangible low-taxed income earned by foreign subsidiaries in the period that such income is earned. We utilize the aggregate approach for releasing disproportionate income tax effects from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). In addition, we recognize the financial statement effect of a tax position only when Asset Retirement Obligations: We have legal obligations to remove and dismantle long-lived assets and to restore land or the seabed at certain E&P locations. We initially recognize a liability for the fair value of legally required asset retirement obligations in the period in which the retirement obligations are incurred and capitalize the associated asset retirement costs as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived assets. capitalized asset retirement costs are depreciated over proved developed oil and gas reserves using the units of production method or the useful life of the related asset. Fair value is determined by applying a credit adjusted risk-free rate to the undiscounted expected future abandonment expenditures. Changes in estimates prior to settlement result in adjustments to both the liability and related asset values, unless the field has ceased production, in which case changes are recognized in the Statement of Consolidated Income. In subsequent periods, the liability is accreted over the useful life of the related asset, and the k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 8 5 58 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 58 3/1/23 2:39 PM 58 59 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:50PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 5 9 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k or-pay provisions, these commercial agreements over-time as services are rendered using the output method, measured using the amount of volumes serviced during the period.

If the commercial agreements have ship- the Midstream segment’s responsibility to stand-ready to service a minimum volume over each quarterly commitment period represent separate, distinct performance obligations. Shortfall payments received under ship-or-pay provisions are recognized as revenue in the calendar quarter the shortfall occurs as the customer does not have make-up rights beyond the calendar quarter end of the quarterly commitment period. All revenues, receivables, and contract balances arising from the commercial agreements between the Midstream segment and the Hess subsidiaries that are the counterparty to the commercial agreements are eliminated upon consolidation. On December 30, 2020, Hess Midstream exercised its renewal options to extend the terms of certain gas gathering, crude oil gathering, gas processing and fractionation, storage, and terminal and export commercial agreements for the secondary term through December 31, 2033. There were no changes to any provisions of the existing commercial agreements as a result of the exercise of the renewal options. Exploration and Development Costs: E&P activities are accounted for using the successful efforts method. Costs of acquiring related costs are capitalized. Annual lease rentals, exploration expenses and exploratory dry hole costs are expensed as incurred. Costs of drilling and unproved and proved oil and gas leasehold acreage, including lease bonuses, brokers’ fees and other equipping productive wells, including development dry holes, and related production facilities are capitalized. The costs of exploratory wells that find oil and gas reserves are capitalized pending determination of whether proved reserves have been found. Exploratory drilling costs remain capitalized after drilling is completed if (1) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify completion as a producing well and (2) sufficient progress is being made in assessing the reserves and the If either of those criteria is not met, or if there is substantial doubt about the economic or operational viability of a project, the capitalized well costs are charged to expense. Indicators of sufficient progress in assessing reserves and the economic and operating viability of a project include commitment of project personnel, active negotiations for sales contracts with customers, negotiations with governments, operators and contractors, firm plans for additional drilling and economic and operational viability of the project. other factors. Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization: We record depletion expense for acquisition costs of proved properties using the units of production method over proved oil and gas reserves. Depreciation and depletion expense for oil and gas production facilities and wells is calculated using the units of production method over proved developed oil and gas reserves. Provisions for impairment of undeveloped oil and gas leases are based on periodic evaluations and other factors. Depreciation of all other plant and equipment is determined on the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives. Capitalized Interest: Interest from external borrowings is capitalized on material projects using the weighted average cost of outstanding borrowings until the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, which for oil and gas assets is at first production from the field. Capitalized interest is depreciated in the same manner as the depreciation of the underlying assets. Impairment of Long-lived Assets: We review long-lived assets, including oil and gas fields, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recovered. If the carrying amounts of the long-lived assets are not expected to be recovered by estimated undiscounted future net cash flows, the assets are impaired and an impairment loss is recorded. The amount of impairment is measured based on the estimated fair value of the assets generally determined by discounting anticipated future net cash flows, an income valuation approach, or by a market-based valuation approach, which are Level 3 fair value measurements. In the case of oil and gas fields, the present value of future net cash flows is based on management’s best estimate of future prices, which is determined with reference to recent historical prices and published forward prices, applied to projected production volumes and discounted at a risk-adjusted rate.

Laws and regulations associated with the scope and timing for the abandonment of oil and gas wells, facilities and equipment could change which could increase the cost of our abandonment obligations. In addition, we may be required to assume abandonment obligations for certain divested assets in the event the current or future owners of facilities previously owned by us are unable to perform, whether due to bankruptcy or otherwise. Retirement Plans: We recognize the funded status of defined benefit postretirement plans in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The funded status is measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit obligation. We recognize the net changes in the funded status of these plans as a component of Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the year in which such changes occur. Actuarial gains and losses in excess of 10% of the greater of the benefit obligation or the market value of assets are amortized over the average remaining service period of active employees or the remaining average expected life if a plan’s participants are predominantly inactive. providing for adequate credit assurance as well as close-out netting, including two-party netting and single counterparty multilateral netting. As applied to us, “two-party netting” is the right to net amounts owing under safe harbor transactions between a single defaulting counterparty entity and a single Hess entity, and “single counterparty multilateral netting” is the right to net amounts owing under safe harbor transactions among a single defaulting counterparty entity and multiple Hess entities. We are reasonably assured that these netting rights would be upheld in a bankruptcy proceeding in the U.S. in which the defaulting counterparty is a debtor under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Share-based Compensation: We account for share-based compensation based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. The fair value of all share-based compensation is recognized over the requisite service period for the entire award, whether the award was granted with ratable or cliff vesting terms, net of actual forfeitures. We estimate fair value at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes valuation model for employee stock options and a Monte Carlo simulation model for performance share units (PSUs). Fair value of restricted stock is based on the market value of the underlying shares at the date of grant. Derivatives: We utilize derivative instruments for financial risk management activities. In these activities, we may use futures, forwards, options and swaps, individually or in combination, to mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in prices of crude oil and natural gas, as well as changes in interest and foreign currency exchange rates. Foreign Currency Remeasurement: The U.S. Dollar is the functional currency (primary currency in which business is conducted) for our foreign operations. Adjustments resulting from remeasuring monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are recorded in Other, net in the Statement of Consolidated Income. All derivative instruments are recorded at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Our policy for recognizing the changes in fair value of derivatives varies based on the designation of the derivative. The changes in fair value of derivatives that are not designated as hedges are recognized currently in earnings. Derivatives may be designated as hedges of expected future cash flows or forecasted transactions (cash flow hedges), or hedges of changes in fair value of recognized assets and liabilities or of unrecognized firm commitments (fair value hedges). Changes in fair value of derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Amounts included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the same period that the hedged item is recognized in earnings. Changes in fair value of derivatives designated as fair value hedges are recognized currently in earnings. The change in fair value of the related hedged item is recorded as an adjustment to its carrying amount and recognized currently in earnings. Fair Value Measurements: We use various valuation approaches in determining fair value for financial instruments, including the market and income approaches. Our fair value measurements also include non-performance risk and time value of money considerations. Counterparty credit is considered for financial assets, and our credit is considered for financial liabilities. We also record certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities at fair value when required by GAAP. These fair value measurements are recorded in connection with business combinations, qualifying nonmonetary exchanges, the initial recognition of asset retirement obligations and any impairment of long-lived assets, equity method investments or goodwill. We determine fair value in accordance with the fair value measurements accounting standard which established a hierarchy for the inputs used to measure fair value based on the source of the inputs, which generally range from quoted prices for identical instruments in a principal trading market (Level 1) to estimates determined using related market data (Level 3), including discounted cash flows and other unobservable data. Measurements derived indirectly from observable inputs or from quoted prices from markets that are less liquid are considered Level 2. When Level 1 inputs are available within a particular market, those inputs are selected for determination of fair value over Level 2 or 3 inputs in the same market. Multiple inputs may be used to measure fair value; however, the level assigned to a fair value measurement is based on the lowest significant input level within this fair value hierarchy. Details on the methods and assumptions used to determine the fair values are as follows: Fair value measurements based on Level 1 inputs: Measurements that are most observable are based on quoted prices of identical instruments obtained from the principal markets in which they are traded. Closing prices are both readily available and representative of fair value. Market transactions occur with sufficient frequency and volume to assure liquidity. Fair value measurements based on Level 2 inputs: Measurements derived indirectly from observable inputs or from quoted prices from markets that are less liquid are considered Level 2. Measurements based on Level 2 inputs include over-the-counter derivative instruments that are priced on an exchange-traded curve but have contractual terms that are not identical to exchange-traded contracts. Fair value measurements based on Level 3 inputs: Measurements that are least observable are estimated from related market data, determined from sources with little or no market activity for comparable contracts or are positions with longer durations. Fair values determined using discounted cash flows and other unobservable data are also classified as Level 3. Netting of Financial Instruments: We generally enter into master netting arrangements to mitigate legal and counterparty credit risk. Master netting arrangements are generally accepted overarching master contracts that govern all individual transactions with the same counterparty entity as a single legally enforceable agreement. The U.S. Bankruptcy Code provides for the enforcement of certain termination and netting rights under certain types of contracts upon the bankruptcy filing of a counterparty, commonly known If a master netting arrangement provides for termination and netting upon the counterparty’s as the “safe harbor” provisions. bankruptcy, these rights are generally enforceable with respect to “safe harbor” transactions. If these arrangements provide the right of offset and our intent and practice is to offset amounts in the case of such a termination, our policy is to record the fair value of In the normal course of business, we rely on legal and credit risk mitigation clauses derivative assets and liabilities on a net basis. k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 0 6 Maintenance and Repairs: Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Capital improvements are recorded as additions in Property, plant and equipment. Environmental Expenditures: We accrue and expense the undiscounted environmental costs necessary to remediate existing conditions related to past operations when the future costs are probable and reasonably estimable. At year-end 2022, our reserve for estimated remediation liabilities was approximately $55 million. Environmental expenditures that increase the life or efficiency of property or reduce or prevent future adverse impacts to the environment are capitalized. The cost of REDD+ carbon credits are recorded in Other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and will be expensed when retired to offset emissions. 2.

Fair value measurements based on Level 2 inputs: Measurements derived indirectly from observable inputs or from quoted prices from markets that are less liquid are considered Level 2. Measurements based on Level 2 inputs include over-the-counter derivative instruments that are priced on an exchange-traded curve but have contractual terms that are not identical to exchange-traded contracts. Fair value measurements based on Level 3 inputs: Measurements that are least observable are estimated from related market data, determined from sources with little or no market activity for comparable contracts or are positions with longer durations. Fair values determined using discounted cash flows and other unobservable data are also classified as Level 3. Netting of Financial Instruments: We generally enter into master netting arrangements to mitigate legal and counterparty credit risk. Master netting arrangements are generally accepted overarching master contracts that govern all individual transactions with the same counterparty entity as a single legally enforceable agreement. The U.S. Bankruptcy Code provides for the enforcement of certain termination and netting rights under certain types of contracts upon the bankruptcy filing of a counterparty, commonly known If a master netting arrangement provides for termination and netting upon the counterparty’s bankruptcy, these rights are generally enforceable with respect to “safe harbor” transactions. If these arrangements provide the right of offset and our intent and practice is to offset amounts in the case of such a termination, our policy is to record the fair value of In the normal course of business, we rely on legal and credit risk mitigation clauses derivative assets and liabilities on a net basis. as the “safe harbor” provisions. Maintenance and Repairs: Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Capital improvements are recorded as additions in Property, plant and equipment. Environmental Expenditures: We accrue and expense the undiscounted environmental costs necessary to remediate existing conditions related to past operations when the future costs are probable and reasonably estimable. At year-end 2022, our reserve for estimated remediation liabilities was approximately $55 million. Environmental expenditures that increase the life or efficiency of property or reduce or prevent future adverse impacts to the environment are capitalized. The cost of REDD+ carbon credits are recorded in Other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and will be expensed when retired to offset emissions. 2.

At December 31, 2022, 36 exploration and appraisal wells on the Stabroek Block, with a total cost of $732 million, were capitalized pending determination of proved reserves. Other additions to capitalized exploratory wells costs in 2022 included the Huron-1 well (Hess 40%) in the Gulf of Mexico, and the Zanderij-1 well on Block 42 (Hess 33%), offshore Suriname. Reclassifications to wells, facilities and equipment based on the determination of proved reserves in 2022 resulted from the sanction of the Yellowtail Field development, the fourth sanctioned project on the Stabroek Block. In 2020, reclassifications to wells, facilities and equipment resulted from sanctions of the Payara Field development, the third sanctioned project on the Stabroek Block, and an additional phase of development at the North Malay Basin, offshore Peninsular Malaysia. Capitalized exploratory well costs charged to expense in 2020 of $125 million primarily related to the northern portion of the Shenzi Field (Hess 28%) in the Gulf of Mexico. The preceding table excludes well costs incurred and expensed during 2022 of $56 million (2021: $11 million; 2020: $67 million).

The operator also plans further appraisal drilling on the block and is conducting pre-development planning for additional phases of development. JDA: Approximately 7% of the capitalized well costs in excess of one year relates to the JDA (Hess 50%) in the Gulf of Thailand, where hydrocarbons were encountered in three successful exploration wells drilled in the western part of Block A-18. The operator has submitted a development plan concept to the regulator to facilitate ongoing commercial negotiations for an extension of the existing gas sales contract to include development of the western part of the block. Malaysia: Approximately 2% of the capitalized well costs in excess of one year relates to North Malay Basin (Hess 50%), offshore Peninsular Malaysia, where hydrocarbons were encountered in one successful exploration well. Pre-development studies are ongoing. 4. Hess Midstream LP In December 2019, Hess Midstream Partners’ organizational structure converted from a master limited partnership into an “Up-C” structure in which Hess Midstream Partners’ public unitholders received newly issued Class A shares in a new public entity named Hess Midstream LP (Hess Midstream), which is taxed as a corporation for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes. Hess Midstream Partners changed its name to “Hess Midstream Operations LP” (HESM Opco) and became a consolidated subsidiary of Hess Midstream, the new publicly listed entity. As consideration for the acquisition, Hess and Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP) each received a cash payment of $301 million and approximately 115 million newly issued HESM Opco Class B units. After giving effect to the acquisition and related transactions, public shareholders of Class A shares in Hess Midstream owned 6% of the k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 2 6 consolidated entity on an as-exchanged basis and Hess and GIP each owned 47% of the consolidated entity on an as-exchanged basis, primarily through their ownership of Class B units in HESM Opco that are exchangeable into Class A shares of Hess Midstream on a one-for-one basis. In March 2021, Hess Midstream completed an underwritten public equity offering of 6.9 million Hess Midstream Class A shares held by Hess and GIP. Hess received net proceeds of $70 million from the public offering. The transaction resulted in an increase in Capital in excess of par and Noncontrolling interests of $56 million and $41 million, respectively. The increase to Noncontrolling interests of $41 million is comprised of $14 million resulting from the change in ownership interest and $27 million from an increase to deferred tax assets resulting from a change in the difference between the carrying amount and tax basis of Hess Midstream's investment in HESM Opco. In August 2021, HESM Opco repurchased 31.25 million HESM Opco Class B units held by Hess and GIP for $750 million. HESM Opco issued $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.250% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes due 2030 in a private offering to finance the repurchase. The transaction resulted in an increase in Capital in excess of par and a decrease in Noncontrolling interests of $28 million, and an increase in deferred tax assets and Noncontrolling interests of $15 million resulting from a change in the difference between the carrying amount and tax basis of Hess Midstream's investment in HESM Opco. The $375 million paid to GIP reduced Noncontrolling interests. In October 2021, Hess Midstream completed an underwritten public equity offering of approximately 8.6 million Hess Midstream Class A Shares held by Hess and GIP. Hess received net proceeds of $108 million from the public offering. The transaction resulted in an increase in Capital in excess of par and Noncontrolling interests of $96 million and $62 million, respectively. The increase to Noncontrolling interests of $62 million is comprised of $12 million resulting from the change in ownership interest and $50 million from an increase to deferred tax assets resulting from a change in the difference between the carrying amount and tax basis of Hess Midstream's investment in HESM Opco. In April 2022, Hess Midstream completed an underwritten public equity offering of approximately 10.2 million Hess Midstream Class A shares held by Hess and GIP. Hess received net proceeds of $146 million from the public offering. The transaction resulted in an increase in Capital in excess of par and Noncontrolling interests of $130 million and $88 million, respectively. The increase to Noncontrolling interests of $88 million is comprised of $16 million resulting from the change in ownership interest and $72 million from an increase to deferred tax assets resulting from a change in the difference between the carrying amount and tax basis of Hess Midstream's investment in HESM Opco. Concurrent with the April 2022 public offering, HESM Opco repurchased approximately 13.6 million HESM Opco Class B units held by Hess and GIP for $400 million. HESM Opco issued $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.500% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes due 2030 in a private offering to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility used to finance the repurchase. The transaction resulted in an increase in Capital in excess of par and a decrease in Noncontrolling interests of $32 million, and an increase in deferred tax assets and Noncontrolling interests of $17 million resulting from a change in the difference between the carrying amount and tax basis of Hess Midstream's investment in HESM Opco. The $200 million paid to GIP reduced Noncontrolling interests. After giving effect to the above transactions in 2022 and 2021, public shareholders of Class A shares of Hess Midstream own approximately 18%, and Hess and GIP each own approximately 41%, of the consolidated entity on an as-exchanged basis at December 31, 2022. Little Missouri 4 (LM4) is a 200 million standard cubic feet per day gas processing plant located south of the Missouri River in McKenzie County, North Dakota, that was constructed as part of a 50/50 joint venture between Hess Midstream and Targa Resources Corp. Hess Midstream has a natural gas processing agreement with LM4 under which it pays a processing fee and reimburses LM4 for its proportionate share of electricity costs. In 2022, processing fees were $21 million (2021: $28 million; 2020: $26 million) and are included in Operating costs and expenses in the Statement of Consolidated Income. At December 31, 2022, Hess Midstream liabilities totaling $3,027 million (2021: $2,694 million) are on a nonrecourse basis to Hess Corporation, while Hess Midstream assets available to settle the obligations of Hess Midstream included cash and cash equivalents totaling $3 million (2021: $2 million), property, plant and equipment, net totaling $3,173 million (2021: $3,125 million) and the equity-method investment in LM4 of $94 million (2021: $102 million). 62 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 62 3/1/23 2:39 PM 62 63 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:51PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 6 3 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k Capitalized Exploratory Well Costs: The following table discloses the amount of capitalized exploratory well costs pending determination of proved reserves at December 31 and the changes therein during the respective years: 2022 2021 2020 (In millions) Balance at January 1.......................................................................................................................... $ Additions to capitalized exploratory well costs pending the determination of proved reserves.....

Lease obligations represent 100% of the present value of future minimum lease payments in the lease arrangement. Where we have contracted directly with a lessor in our role as operator of an unincorporated oil and gas venture, we bill our partners their proportionate share for reimbursements as payments under lease agreements become due pursuant to the terms of our joint operating and other agreements. The nature of our leasing arrangements at December 31, 2022 was as follows: Operating leases: In the normal course of business, we primarily lease drilling rigs, equipment, logistical assets (offshore Variable lease cost (b)..................................................................................................................... vessels, aircraft, and shorebases), and office space. Finance leases: In 2018, we entered into a sale and lease-back arrangement for a floating storage and offloading vessel (FSO) to handle produced condensate at North Malay Basin, offshore Peninsular Malaysia. At December 31, 2022, the remaining lease term for the FSO was 10.8 years. Sublease income (c) ........................................................................................................................ Total lease cost................................................................................................................................. $ 476 $ 271 $ (a) Short-term lease cost is primarily attributable to equipment used in global exploration, development, production, and crude oil marketing activities. Future short- term lease costs will vary based on activity levels of our operated assets. In 2022, short-term lease cost included drilling rigs and offshore support vessels used for an exploration well and abandonment activity in the Gulf of Mexico and workover rigs for maintenance activities in the Bakken. (b) Variable lease costs for drilling rigs result from differences in the minimum rate and the actual usage of the ROU asset during the lease period. Variable lease costs for logistical assets result from differences in stated monthly rates and total charges reflecting the actual usage of the ROU asset during the lease period. Variable lease costs for our office leases represent common area maintenance charges which have not been separated from lease components. (c) We sublease certain of our office space to third parties under our head lease. The above lease costs represent 100% of the lease payments due for the period, including where we as operator have contracted directly with suppliers. As the payments under lease agreements where we are operator become due, we bill our partners their proportionate share for reimbursement pursuant to the terms of our joint operating agreements.

Future short- term lease costs will vary based on activity levels of our operated assets. In 2022, short-term lease cost included drilling rigs and offshore support vessels used for an exploration well and abandonment activity in the Gulf of Mexico and workover rigs for maintenance activities in the Bakken. (b) Variable lease costs for drilling rigs result from differences in the minimum rate and the actual usage of the ROU asset during the lease period. Variable lease costs for logistical assets result from differences in stated monthly rates and total charges reflecting the actual usage of the ROU asset during the lease period. Variable lease costs for our office leases represent common area maintenance charges which have not been separated from lease components. (c) We sublease certain of our office space to third parties under our head lease. The above lease costs represent 100% of the lease payments due for the period, including where we as operator have contracted directly with suppliers. As the payments under lease agreements where we are operator become due, we bill our partners their proportionate share for reimbursement pursuant to the terms of our joint operating agreements.

The amended and restated credit agreement, among other things, extended the maturity date from December 2024 to July 2027, increased the accordion feature to up to an additional $750 million, which does not represent a lending commitment from the lenders, and replaced LIBOR as the benchmark interest rate with SOFR. Borrowings under the new term loan facility will generally bear interest at SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.650% to 2.550%, while the applicable margin for the new syndicated revolving credit facility ranges from 1.375% to 2.050%. Pricing levels for the facility fee and interest-rate margins are based on HESM Opco’s ratio of total debt to EBITDA (as defined in the credit facilities). If HESM Opco obtains an investment grade credit rating, the pricing levels will be based on HESM Opco’s credit ratings in effect from time to time. The credit facilities contain covenants that require HESM Opco to maintain a ratio of total debt to EBITDA (as defined in the credit facilities) for the prior four fiscal quarters of not greater than 5.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (5.50 to 1.00 during the specified period following certain acquisitions) and, prior to HESM Opco obtaining an investment grade credit rating, a ratio of secured debt to EBITDA for the prior four fiscal quarters of not greater than 4.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. HESM Opco was in compliance with these financial covenants at December 31, 2022. The credit facilities are secured by first-priority perfected liens on substantially all of the assets of HESM Opco and its direct and indirect wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries, including equity interests directly owned by such entities, subject to certain customary exclusions. At December 31, 2022, borrowings of $18 million were drawn under HESM Opco’s revolving credit facility, and borrowings of $400 million, excluding deferred issuance costs, were drawn under HESM Opco’s Term Loan A facility.

Retirement Plans We have funded noncontributory defined benefit pension plans for a significant portion of our employees. In addition, we have an unfunded supplemental pension plan covering certain employees, which provides incremental payments that would have been payable from our principal pension plans, were it not for limitations imposed by income tax regulations. The plans provide defined benefits based on years of service and final average salary to our U.S. employees hired prior to January 1, 2017 and to our employees in the United Kingdom (U.K.). The U.S. employees hired on or after January 1, 2017 participate under a cash accumulation formula and receive credits to a notional account based on a percentage of pensionable wages. Interest accrues on the balance in the notional account at a rate determined in accordance with plan provisions. Additionally, we maintain an unfunded postretirement medical plan that provides health benefits to certain U.S. qualified retirees from ages 55 through 65. The measurement date for all retirement plans is December 31.

The amended and restated credit agreement, among other things, extended the maturity date from December 2024 to July 2027, increased the accordion feature to up to an additional $750 million, which does not represent a lending commitment from the lenders, and replaced LIBOR as the benchmark interest rate with SOFR. Borrowings under the new term loan facility will generally bear interest at SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.650% to 2.550%, while the applicable margin for the new syndicated revolving credit facility ranges from 1.375% to 2.050%. Pricing levels for the facility fee and interest-rate margins are based on HESM Opco’s ratio of total debt to EBITDA (as defined in the credit facilities). If HESM Opco obtains an investment grade credit rating, the pricing levels will be based on HESM Opco’s credit ratings in effect from time to time. The credit facilities contain covenants that require HESM Opco to maintain a ratio of total debt to EBITDA (as defined in the credit facilities) for the prior four fiscal quarters of not greater than 5.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (5.50 to 1.00 during the specified period following certain acquisitions) and, prior to HESM Opco obtaining an investment grade credit rating, a ratio of secured debt to EBITDA for the prior four fiscal quarters of not greater than 4.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. HESM Opco was in compliance with these financial covenants at December 31, 2022. The credit facilities are secured by first-priority perfected liens on substantially all of the assets of HESM Opco and its direct and indirect wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries, including equity interests directly owned by such entities, subject to certain customary exclusions. At December 31, 2022, borrowings of $18 million were drawn under HESM Opco’s revolving credit facility, and borrowings of $400 million, excluding deferred issuance costs, were drawn under HESM Opco’s Term Loan A facility. Borrowings under these credit facilities are non-recourse to Hess Corporation. 8.

Our decommissioning obligation derived from our former ownership of the facilities. Liabilities incurred in 2021 include $147 million representing the estimated abandonment obligations for the West Delta Field. The liabilities settled or disposed of in 2022 primarily result from abandonment activity completed in the Gulf of Mexico and the Bakken. Liabilities settled or disposed of in 2021 primarily result from the sale of our interests in Denmark and abandonment activity completed in the Gulf of Mexico and the Bakken.

In 2022 and 2021, there was an interim remeasurement of the funded status of certain plans due to plan settlements which resulted in net periodic benefit cost being recalculated for the remainder of the year using assumptions as of the interim remeasurement dates. The assumptions disclosed in the preceding table used to determine net periodic benefit cost for 2022 and 2021 are a weighted average of the assumptions as of the end of the previous year and the interim remeasurement dates. The assumptions used to determine benefit obligations were established at each year end. The net periodic benefit cost and the actuarial present value of benefit obligations are based on actuarial assumptions that are reviewed on an annual basis. Discount rates are developed based on a portfolio of high-quality, fixed income debt instruments with maturities that approximate the expected payment of plan obligations. The overall expected rate of return on plan assets is developed from the expected future returns for each asset category, weighted by the target allocation of assets to that asset category. The future expected rate of return assumptions for individual asset categories are largely based on inputs from various investment experts regarding their future return expectations for particular asset categories. The expected rate of return on plan assets is applied to the fair value of plan assets to determine the expected return on plan assets component of net periodic benefit cost for the year. Our investment strategy is to maximize long-term returns at an acceptable level of risk through broad diversification of plan assets in a variety of asset classes. Asset classes and target allocations are determined by our investment committee and include domestic and foreign equities, fixed income, and other investments, including hedge funds, real estate and private equity. Investment managers are prohibited from investing in securities issued by us unless indirectly held as part of an index strategy. The majority of plan assets are highly liquid, providing ample liquidity for benefit payment requirements. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, we updated our target allocations to 30% equity securities, 50% fixed income securities (including cash and short-term investment funds) and 20% to all other types of investments. Asset allocations are rebalanced on a periodic basis throughout the year to bring assets to within an acceptable range of target levels.

In 2022, the Hess Corporation Employees’ Pension Plan purchased a single premium annuity contract at a cost of $166 million using assets of the plan to settle and transfer certain of its obligations to a third party. This partial settlement resulted in a noncash settlement loss of $13 million to recognize unamortized actuarial losses. In 2022, the HOVENSA Legacy Employees' Pension Plan paid lump sums of $20 million to certain participants, and purchased a single premium annuity contract at a cost of $80 million, to settle the plan's projected benefit obligation in connection with terminating the plan. The settlement transactions resulted in a noncash settlement gain of $11 million to recognize unamortized actuarial gains. The assets remaining after settlement of the plan's projected benefit obligation of $15 million were transferred to the Hess Corporation Employees' Pension Plan in December 2022. In 2023, we forecast service cost for our pension and postretirement medical plans to be approximately $40 million and net non- service cost of approximately $60 million of income, which is comprised of interest cost of approximately $100 million, and estimated expected return on plan assets of approximately $160 million.

Included within other operating revenues are gains (losses) on commodity derivatives of $(585) million in 2022, $(243) million in 2021, and $547 million in 2020. 11. Dispositions 2022: We completed the sale of our 8% interest in the Waha Concession in Libya for net cash consideration of $150 million and recognized a pre-tax gain of $76 million ($76 million after income taxes). We also completed the sale of real property related to our former downstream business for cash consideration of $24 million and recognized a pre-tax gain of $22 million ($22 million after income taxes). 2021: We completed the sale of our interests in Denmark for net cash consideration of approximately $130 million, after normal closing adjustments, and recognized a pre-tax gain of $29 million ($29 million after income taxes). In addition, we completed the sale of our Little Knife and Murphy Creek nonstrategic acreage interests in the Bakken for net cash consideration of $297 million, after normal closing adjustments. The sale included approximately 78,700 net acres, which are located in the southernmost portion of the Corporation's Bakken position. The acreage constituted part of a larger amortization base and the sale was treated as a normal retirement. Accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized upon sale. 2020: We completed the sale of our 28% working interest in the Shenzi Field in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico for proceeds of $482 million, after normal closing adjustments, and recognized a pre-tax gain of $79 million ($79 million after income taxes). In September 2022, we recorded a pre-tax charge of $28 million ($28 million after income taxes) that resulted from updates to our estimated abandonment liabilities for non-producing properties in the Gulf of Mexico and $26 million ($26 million after income taxes) to fully impair the net book value of our interests in the Penn State Field in the Gulf of Mexico due to a mechanical issue on the field's remaining production well. In June 2021, we recognized a charge of $147 million ($147 million after income taxes) in connection with estimated abandonment obligations for seven leases in the West Delta Field in the Gulf of Mexico, which we sold to a Fieldwood predecessor in 2004. See Note 8, Asset Retirement Obligations. As a result of the significant decline in crude oil prices due to the global economic slowdown from COVID-19, we reviewed our oil and gas properties within the Exploration and Production operating segment for impairment in the first quarter of 2020. We recognized pre-tax impairment charges in the first quarter of 2020 to reduce the carrying value of our oil and gas properties and certain related ROU assets at the North Malay Basin in Malaysia by $755 million ($755 million after income taxes), the South Arne Field in Denmark by $670 million ($594 million after income taxes), and in the Gulf of Mexico, the Stampede Field by $410 million ($410 million after income taxes) and the Tubular Bells Field by $270 million ($270 million after income taxes) primarily as a result of a lower long-term crude oil price outlook. The impairment charges were based on estimates of fair value at March 31, 2020 determined by discounting internally developed future net cash flows, a Level 3 fair value measurement. Other Assets: In the first quarter of 2020, we recognized impairment charges totaling $21 million pre-tax ($20 million after income taxes) related to drilling rig ROU assets in the Bakken and surplus materials and supplies. 13.

As a result of the significant decline in crude oil prices due to the global economic slowdown from COVID-19, we reviewed our oil and gas properties within the Exploration and Production operating segment for impairment in the first quarter of 2020. We recognized pre-tax impairment charges in the first quarter of 2020 to reduce the carrying value of our oil and gas properties and certain related ROU assets at the North Malay Basin in Malaysia by $755 million ($755 million after income taxes), the South Arne Field in Denmark by $670 million ($594 million after income taxes), and in the Gulf of Mexico, the Stampede Field by $410 million ($410 million after income taxes) and the Tubular Bells Field by $270 million ($270 million after income taxes) primarily as a result of a lower long-term crude oil price outlook. The impairment charges were based on estimates of fair value at March 31, 2020 determined by discounting internally developed future net cash flows, a Level 3 fair value measurement. Other Assets: In the first quarter of 2020, we recognized impairment charges totaling $21 million pre-tax ($20 million after income taxes) related to drilling rig ROU assets in the Bakken and surplus materials and supplies. 13. Share-based Compensation We have established and maintain LTIP for the granting of restricted common shares, PSUs and stock options to our employees. At December 31, 2022, the total number of authorized common stock under the LTIP was 63.5 million shares, of which we have 21.5 million shares available for issuance.

We are no longer subject to examinations by income tax authorities in most jurisdictions for years prior to 2009. 15. Outstanding and Weighted Average Common Shares In the Consolidated Balance Sheet, deferred tax assets and liabilities are netted by taxing jurisdiction and are recorded at December 31, as follows: were as follows: Net income (loss) and weighted average number of common shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per share computations Deferred income taxes (long-term asset)...................................................................................................................... $ Deferred income taxes (long-term liability) ................................................................................................................. Net Deferred Tax Assets (Liabilities)................................................................................................................... $ 2022 2021 $ (In millions) 133 (418) (285) $ 71 (383) (312) At December 31, 2022, we have recognized a gross deferred tax asset related to net operating loss carryforwards of $4,226 million before application of valuation allowances. The deferred tax asset is comprised of $128 million attributable to foreign net operating losses which will begin to expire in 2025, $3,607 million attributable to U.S. federal operating losses which will begin to expire in 2034, and $491 million attributable to losses in various U.S. states which will begin to expire in 2023. The deferred tax asset attributable to foreign net operating losses, net of valuation allowances, is $23 million. A full valuation allowance is established against the deferred tax asset attributable to U.S. federal and state net operating losses, except for $24 million of U.S. federal and $5 million of U.S. state deferred tax assets attributable to Midstream activities for which separate U.S. federal and state tax returns are filed. At December 31, 2022, we have U.S. state tax credit carryforwards of $24 million, which will begin to expire in 2034, $74 million of other business credit carryforwards, which will begin to expire in 2036, and foreign tax credit carryforwards of $1 million, which will begin to expire in 2024. A full valuation allowance is established against the deferred tax asset attributable to these credits. At December 31, 2022, the Consolidated Balance Sheet reflects a $3,658 million (2021: $3,838 million) valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets for multiple jurisdictions based on application of the relevant accounting standards. Hess continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets in the U.S. (non-Midstream) and Malaysia, and certain other jurisdictions, and did so against its deferred tax assets in Denmark prior to its sale in 2021 (see Note 11, Dispositions). The reduction in valuation allowance year over year is primarily due to a reduction in deferred tax asset balances in the U.S. (non-Midstream) and Malaysia. Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit the use of deferred tax assets. A recent cumulative loss incurred in the U.S. and Malaysia constitutes significant objective negative evidence. Such objective negative evidence limits our ability to consider subjective positive evidence, such as our projections of future taxable income, resulting in the recognition of a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets for these jurisdictions. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight can be given to subjective evidence. There is a reasonable possibility that if anticipated future earnings come to fruition and no other unforeseen negative evidence materializes, sufficient positive evidence may become available to support the release of all or a portion of the Company's valuation allowance in these jurisdictions in the near term. This would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period in which the release is recorded. 2022 2021 2020 (In millions except per share amounts) Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Hess Corporation: Net income (loss) .............................................................................................................................. $ Less: Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests.....................................................

At December 31, 2022, we have no accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits (2021: $6 million). We file income tax returns in the U.S. and various foreign jurisdictions. We are no longer subject to examinations by income tax authorities in most jurisdictions for years prior to 2009. 15.

The deferred tax asset is comprised of $128 million attributable to foreign net operating losses which will begin to expire in 2025, $3,607 million attributable to U.S. federal operating losses which will begin to expire in 2034, and $491 million attributable to losses in various U.S. states which will begin to expire in 2023. The deferred tax asset attributable to foreign net operating losses, net of valuation allowances, is $23 million. A full valuation allowance is established against the deferred tax asset attributable to U.S. federal and state net operating losses, except for $24 million of U.S. federal and $5 million of U.S. state deferred tax assets attributable to Midstream activities for which separate U.S. federal and state tax returns are filed. At December 31, 2022, we have U.S. state tax credit carryforwards of $24 million, which will begin to expire in 2034, $74 million of other business credit carryforwards, which will begin to expire in 2036, and foreign tax credit carryforwards of $1 million, which will begin to expire in 2024. A full valuation allowance is established against the deferred tax asset attributable to these credits. At December 31, 2022, the Consolidated Balance Sheet reflects a $3,658 million (2021: $3,838 million) valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets for multiple jurisdictions based on application of the relevant accounting standards. Hess continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets in the U.S. (non-Midstream) and Malaysia, and certain other jurisdictions, and did so against its deferred tax assets in Denmark prior to its sale in 2021 (see Note 11, Dispositions). The reduction in valuation allowance year over year is primarily due to a reduction in deferred tax asset balances in the U.S. (non-Midstream) and Malaysia. Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit the use of deferred tax assets. A recent cumulative loss incurred in the U.S. and Malaysia constitutes significant objective negative evidence. Such objective negative evidence limits our ability to consider subjective positive evidence, such as our projections of future taxable income, resulting in the recognition of a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets for these jurisdictions. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight can be given to subjective evidence. There is a reasonable possibility that if anticipated future earnings come to fruition and no other unforeseen negative evidence materializes, sufficient positive evidence may become available to support the release of all or a portion of the Company's valuation allowance in these jurisdictions in the near term. This would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period in which the release is recorded. were as follows: 2022 2021 2020 (In millions except per share amounts) Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Hess Corporation: Net income (loss) .............................................................................................................................. $ Less: Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests.....................................................

Guarantees, Contingencies and Commitments Guarantees and Contingencies We are subject to loss contingencies with respect to various claims, lawsuits and other proceedings. A liability is recognized in our consolidated financial statements when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the risk of loss is probable, but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated or the risk of loss is only reasonably possible, a liability is not accrued; however, we disclose the nature of those contingencies. We cannot predict with certainty if, how or when existing claims, lawsuits and proceedings will be resolved or what the eventual relief, if any, may be, particularly for proceedings that are in their early stages of development or where plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages. We, along with many companies that have been or continue to be engaged in refining and marketing of gasoline, have been a party to lawsuits and claims related to the use of MTBE in gasoline. A series of similar lawsuits, many involving water utilities or governmental entities, were filed in jurisdictions across the United States against producers of MTBE and petroleum refiners who produced gasoline containing MTBE, including us. The principal allegation in all cases was that gasoline containing MTBE was a defective product and that these producers and refiners are strictly liable in proportion to their share of the gasoline market for damage to groundwater resources and are required to take remedial action to ameliorate the alleged effects on the environment of releases of MTBE. The majority of the cases asserted against us have been settled. There are two remaining active cases, filed by Pennsylvania and Maryland. In June 2014, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania filed a lawsuit alleging that we and all major oil companies with operations in Pennsylvania, have damaged the groundwater by introducing thereto gasoline with MTBE. The Pennsylvania suit has been forwarded to the existing MTBE multidistrict litigation pending in the Southern District of New York. In December 2017, the State of Maryland filed a lawsuit alleging that we and other major oil companies damaged the groundwater in Maryland by introducing thereto gasoline with MTBE. The suit, filed in Maryland state court, was served on us in January 2018 and has been removed to federal court by the defendants. In September 2003, we received a directive from the NJDEP to remediate contamination in the sediments of the Lower Passaic River. The NJDEP is also seeking natural resource damages. The directive, insofar as it affects us, relates to alleged releases from a petroleum bulk storage terminal in Newark, New Jersey we previously owned. We and over 70 companies entered into an Administrative Order on Consent with the EPA to study the same contamination; this work remains ongoing. We and other parties settled a cost recovery claim by the State of New Jersey and agreed with the EPA to fund remediation of a portion of the site. Since 2016, the EPA has issued a ROD selecting a dredge and cap remedy for both the lower eight miles and the upper nine miles of the Lower Passaic River at an estimated cost of approximately $1.82 billion. The ROD does not address the Newark Bay, which may require additional remedial action. In addition, the federal trustees for natural resources have begun a separate assessment of damages to natural resources in the Passaic River. Given that the EPA has not selected a final remedy for the Newark Bay, total remedial costs cannot be reliably estimated at this time. Based on currently known facts and circumstances, we do not believe that this matter will result in a significant liability to us because our former terminal did not store or use contaminants which are of concern in the river sediments and could not have contributed contamination along the river’s length. Further, there are numerous other parties who we expect will bear the cost of remediation and damages. In March 2014, we received an Administrative Order from the EPA requiring us and 26 other parties to undertake the Remedial Design for the remedy selected by the EPA for the Gowanus Canal Superfund Site in Brooklyn, New York. Our alleged liability derives from our former ownership and operation of a fuel oil terminal and connected shipbuilding and repair facility adjacent to the Canal. The remedy selected by the EPA includes dredging of surface sediments and the placement of a cap over the deeper sediments throughout the Canal and in-situ stabilization of certain contaminated sediments that will remain in place below the cap. The EPA’s original estimate was that this remedy would cost $506 million; however, the ultimate costs that will be incurred in connection with the design and implementation of the remedy remain uncertain. We have complied with the EPA’s March 2014 Administrative Order and contributed funding for the Remedial Design based on an allocation of costs among the parties determined by a third-party expert. In January 2020, we received an additional Administrative Order from the EPA requiring us and several other parties to begin Remedial Action along the uppermost portion of the Canal. We intend to comply with this Administrative Order. The remediation work began in the fourth quarter of 2020. Based on currently known facts and circumstances, we do not believe that this matter will result in a significant liability to us, and the costs will continue to be allocated amongst the parties, as they were for the Remedial Design. From time to time, we are involved in other judicial and administrative proceedings relating to environmental matters. We periodically receive notices from the EPA that we are a “potential responsible party” under the Superfund legislation with respect to various waste disposal sites. Under this legislation, all potentially responsible parties may be jointly and severally liable. For any site for which we have received such a notice, the EPA’s claims or assertions of liability against us relating to these sites have not been fully developed, or the EPA’s claims have been settled or a settlement is under consideration, in all cases for amounts that are not material. Beginning in 2017, certain states, municipalities and private associations in California, Delaware, Maryland, Rhode Island and South Carolina separately filed lawsuits against oil, gas and coal producers, including us, for alleged damages purportedly caused by climate change. These proceedings include claims for monetary damages and injunctive relief. Beginning in 2013, various parishes in Louisiana filed suit against approximately 100 oil and gas companies, including us, alleging that the companies’ operations and activities in certain fields violated the State and Local Coastal Resource Management Act of 1978, as amended, and caused contamination, subsidence and other environmental damages to land and water bodies located in the coastal zone of Louisiana. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, the payment of the costs necessary to clear, re-vegetate and otherwise restore the allegedly impacted areas. The ultimate impact of such climate and other aforementioned environmental proceedings, and of any related proceedings by private parties, on our business or accounts cannot be predicted at this time due to the large number of other potentially responsible parties and the speculative nature of clean-up cost estimates. Hess Corporation and its subsidiary HONX, Inc. have been named as defendants in various personal injury claims alleging exposure to asbestos and/or other alleged toxic substances while working at a former refinery (owned and operated by subsidiaries or related entities) located in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. On April 28, 2022, HONX, Inc. initiated a Chapter 11 § 524G process in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, to resolve these asbestos-related claims. February 2023, Hess, HONX, Inc., the Unsecured Creditors’ Committee, and counsel representing claimants, reached a mediated resolution of the matter, contingent upon final approvals of all parties and confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court. tentative resolution, we have increased our reserve for this matter. See Note 20, Subsequent Events. In light of this In We are also involved in other judicial and administrative proceedings from time to time in addition to the matters described above, including claims related to post-production deductions from royalty and working interest payments. We may also be exposed to future decommissioning liabilities for divested assets in the event the current or future owners of facilities previously owned by us are determined to be unable to perform such actions, whether due to bankruptcy or otherwise. We cannot predict with certainty if, how or when such proceedings will be resolved or what the eventual relief, if any, may be, particularly for proceedings that are in their early stages of development or where plaintiffs seek indeterminate damages. Numerous issues may need to be resolved, including through potentially lengthy discovery and determination of important factual matters before a loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated for any proceeding. Subject to the foregoing, in management’s opinion, based upon currently known facts and circumstances, the outcome of lawsuits, claims and proceedings, including the matters disclosed above, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, we could incur judgments, enter into settlements, or revise our opinion regarding the outcome of certain matters, and such developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the period in which the amounts are accrued and our cash flows in the period in which the amounts are paid. k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 0 8 80 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 80 3/1/23 2:40 PM 80 81 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:54PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 During 2022, we repurchased approximately 5.4 million shares of our common stock for $650 million ($20 million was paid subsequent to December 31, 2022).

Financial Risk Management Activities In the normal course of our business, we are exposed to commodity risks related to changes in the prices of crude oil and natural gas, as well as changes in interest rates and foreign currency values. In the disclosures that follow, corporate financial risk management activities refer to the mitigation of these risks through hedging activities. We maintain a control environment for all of our financial risk management activities under the direction of our Chief Risk Officer. Our Treasury department is responsible for administering foreign exchange rate and interest rate hedging programs using similar controls and processes, where applicable. Hedging strategies are reviewed annually by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Corporate Financial Risk Management Activities: Financial risk management activities include transactions designed to reduce risk in the selling prices of crude oil or natural gas we produce or reduce our exposure to foreign currency or interest rate movements. Generally, futures, swaps or option strategies may be used to fix the forward selling price, or establish a floor price or a range banded with a floor and ceiling price, for a portion of our crude oil or natural gas production. Forward contracts or swaps may also be used to purchase certain currencies in which we conduct business with the intent of reducing exposure to foreign currency fluctuations. At December 31, 2022, these forward contracts relate to the British Pound and Malaysian Ringgit. Interest rate swaps may be used to convert interest payments on certain long-term debt from fixed to floating rates. The notional amounts of outstanding financial risk management derivative contracts were as follows: Commodity – crude oil hedge contracts (millions of barrels)......................................................................................... Foreign exchange forwards and swaps............................................................................................................................ $ Interest rate swaps ........................................................................................................................................................... $ (In millions) — 177 100 $ $ 54.8 145 100 December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the fair value of our interest rate swaps is presented within Other liabilities and deferred credits and non-current Other assets, respectively, in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The fair value of our foreign exchange forwards and swaps is presented within Accrued liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The fair value of our crude oil hedge contracts is presented within Other current assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. All fair values in the table above are based on Level 2 inputs. Crude oil price hedging contracts decreased Sales and other operating revenues by $585 million in 2022 (2021: decrease of $243 million; 2020: increase of $547 million). The change in fair value of interest rate swaps was a decrease of $6 million in 2022 (2021: $3 million decrease; 2020: $4 million increase) with a corresponding adjustment in the carrying value of the hedged fixed-rate debt. We recognized net foreign exchange losses of $16 million in 2022 (2021: $3 million; 2020: $8 million). Offsetting these net foreign exchange losses were net gains from our foreign exchange derivative contracts, that are not designated as hedges, of $14 million in 2022 (2021: $1 million; 2020: $2 million). Foreign exchange gains and losses, and the gains and losses on our foreign exchange derivative contracts, are recorded in Other, net in the Statement of Consolidated Income. Credit Risk: We are exposed to credit risks that may at times be concentrated with certain counterparties, groups of counterparties or customers. Accounts receivable are generated from a diverse domestic and international customer base. At December 31, 2022, our accounts receivable were concentrated with the following counterparty industry segments: companies 49%, Independent E&P companies 31%, Refining and marketing companies 10%, Storage and transportation companies 4%, National oil companies 2%, and Others 4%. We reduce risk related to certain counterparties, where applicable, by using master netting arrangements and requiring collateral, generally cash or letters of credit. Integrated At December 31, 2022, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $83 million (2021: $259 million). Fair Value Measurement: At December 31, 2022, our total long-term debt, which was substantially comprised of fixed rate debt instruments, had a carrying value of $8,281 million and a fair value of $8,192 million, based on Level 2 inputs in the fair value measurement hierarchy. We also have short-term financial instruments, primarily cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, for which the carrying value approximated fair value at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. 20. Subsequent Events In February 2023, we reached a mediated resolution of a legal matter associated with our former downstream business, HONX, Inc., contingent upon final approvals of all parties and confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court. Fourth quarter 2022 results include a charge of $101 million to increase our reserve based on this tentative resolution, which is included in General and administrative expenses in the Statement of Consolidated Income.

Proved oil and gas reserves are quantities, which by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from known reservoirs under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations. Our estimation of net recoverable quantities of liquid hydrocarbons and natural gas is a highly technical process performed by our internal teams of geoscience and reservoir engineering professionals. Estimates of reserves were prepared by the use of appropriate geologic, petroleum engineering, and evaluation principles and techniques that are in accordance with practices generally recognized by the petroleum industry as presented in the publication of the Society of Petroleum Engineers entitled “Standards Pertaining to the Estimating and Auditing of Oil and Gas Reserves Information (Revision as of June 25, 2019).” The method or combination of methods used in the analysis of each reservoir is based on the maturity of the reservoir, the completeness of the subsurface data available at the time of the estimate, the stage of reservoir development and the production history. Subsurface data used included well logs, reservoir core and fluid samples, production and pressure testing, static and dynamic pressure information, and reservoir surveillance. Where applicable, reliable technologies may be used in reserve estimation, as defined in the SEC regulations. These technologies, including computational methods, must have been field tested and demonstrated to provide reasonably certain results with consistency and repeatability in the formation being evaluated or in an analogous formation. In some cases, where appropriate, use of empirical and analytical methods, combined with analog data were used. Analytic tools, including reservoir simulation, geologic modeling and seismic processing, have been used in the interpretation of the subsurface data. These technologies were used to increase the quality and confidence in the reserves estimates. In order for reserves to be classified as proved, any required government approvals must be obtained and depending on the cost of the project, either senior management or the Board of Directors must commit to fund the development. Our proved reserves are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which are discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Form 10-K. Internal Controls The Corporation maintains internal controls over its oil and gas reserve estimation processes, which are administered by our Global Reserves group and our Chief Financial Officer. Estimates of reserves are prepared by technical staff who work directly with the oil and gas properties using industry standard reserve estimation principles, definitions and methodologies. Each year, reserve estimates of the Corporation’s assets are subject to internal technical audits and reviews. reserve engineer reviews and audits a significant portion of the Corporation’s reported reserves (see pages 89 through 94). Reserve estimates are reviewed by senior management and the Board of Directors. In addition, an independent third-party Qualifications The person primarily responsible for overseeing the preparation of the Corporation’s oil and gas reserves during 2022 was the Senior Manager, Global Reserves. He is a member of the Society of Petroleum Engineers and has 20 years of experience in the oil and gas industry with a MSc degree in Petroleum Engineering. His experience has been primarily focused on oil and gas subsurface understanding and reserves estimation in both domestic and international areas. He is also responsible for the Corporation’s Global Reserves group, which is the internal organization that establishes the policies and processes used within the operating units to estimate reserves and perform internal technical reserve audits and reviews. Reserves Audit We engaged the consulting firm of DeGolyer and MacNaughton (D&M) to perform an audit of the internally prepared reserve estimates on certain fields aggregating approximately 89% of 2022 year-end reported reserve quantities on a barrel of oil equivalent basis (2021: 88%). The purpose of this audit was to provide additional assurance on the reasonableness of internally prepared reserve estimates and compliance with SEC regulations. The D&M report, dated February 1, 2023, on the Corporation’s estimated oil and gas reserves was prepared using standard geological and engineering methods generally recognized in the petroleum industry. D&M is an independent petroleum engineering consulting firm that has been providing petroleum consulting services throughout the world for over 70 years. D&M’s letter report on the Corporation’s December 31, 2022 oil and gas reserves is included as an exhibit to this Form 10-K. While the D&M report should be read in its entirety, the report concludes that for the properties reviewed by D&M, the total net proved reserve estimates prepared by Hess and independently evaluated by D&M, in the aggregate, differed by approximately 2.6% (2021: less than 2.5%) of total audited net proved reserves on a barrel of oil equivalent basis. The report also includes among other information, the qualifications of the technical person primarily responsible for overseeing the reserve audit. Crude Oil Prices Used to Estimate Proved Reserves Proved reserves are calculated using the average price during the twelve-month period before December 31 determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within the year, unless prices are defined by contractual agreements, excluding escalations based on future conditions. Crude oil prices used in the determination of proved reserves at December 31, 2022 were $94.13 per barrel for WTI (2021: $66.34; 2020: $39.77) and $97.98 per barrel for Brent (2021: 88 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 88 3/1/23 2:40 PM 88 89 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:55PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 Results of Operations for Oil and Gas Producing Activities The results of operations shown below exclude non-oil and gas producing activities, primarily gains (losses) on sales of oil and gas properties, sales of purchased crude oil, NGL and natural gas from third parties, interest expense and non-operating income.

Crude Oil Prices Used to Estimate Proved Reserves (a) Production commenced from Liza Phase 1 in December 2019 and from Liza Phase 2 in February 2022. Operating costs and expenses also include pre- development costs from the operator for future phases of development and Hess internal costs. (b) Other includes our interests in Libya (sold in November 2022), Denmark (sold in August 2021), Suriname and Canada. (c) Operating costs and expenses and depreciation, depletion and amortization, in the United States, include $108 million and $65 million, respectively, related to the cost of 4.2 million barrels of crude oil stored on two VLCCs at December 31, 2020 that were sold in 2021.

At December 31, 2022, spot prices closed at $80.26 per barrel for WTI and $81.33 per barrel for Brent. If crude oil prices in 2023 are at levels below that used in determining 2022 proved reserves, we may recognize negative revisions to our December 31, 2023 proved undeveloped reserves. In addition, we may recognize negative revisions to proved developed reserves, which can vary significantly by asset due to differing operating cost structures. Conversely, price increases in 2023 above those used in determining 2022 proved reserves could result in positive revisions to proved developed and proved undeveloped reserves at December 31, 2023. It is difficult to estimate the magnitude of any potential net negative or positive change in proved reserves at December 31, 2023, due to numerous currently unknown factors, including 2023 crude oil prices, the amount of any additions to proved reserves, positive or negative revisions in proved reserves related to 2023 reservoir performance, the levels to which industry costs will change in response to 2023 crude oil prices, and management’s plans as of December 31, 2023 for developing proved undeveloped reserves.

Revisions associated with proved undeveloped reserves are discussed in further detail on page 93. 2021: Total revisions of previous estimates of proved reserves amounted to a net increase of 53 million boe, of which revisions of proved developed reserves amounted to an increase of 73 million boe (31 million barrels of crude oil, 27 million barrels of NGL and 88 million mcf of natural gas). In the United States, net positive revisions to proved developed reserves from the Bakken of 68 million boe were due to higher commodity prices (39 million boe) and improved well performance (32 million boe), partially offset by other negative revisions of 3 million boe. In the Gulf of Mexico, positive revisions to proved developed reserves were 10 million boe, including 5 million boe of positive price revisions and 5 million boe of other revisions, primarily improved well performance. In Malaysia and JDA, net negative revisions to proved developed reserves were 6 million boe due to the impact of higher commodity prices on entitlement allocations in the production sharing contract at JDA (50%) and performance at North Malay Basin and JDA (50%). Revisions associated with proved undeveloped reserves are discussed in further detail on page 93. 2020: Total revisions of previous estimates of proved reserves amounted to a net decrease of 25 million boe, of which revisions of proved developed reserves amounted to an increase of 108 million boe (38 million barrels of crude oil, 30 million barrels of NGL and 237 million mcf of natural gas). In the United States, revisions to proved developed reserves from the Bakken were a net increase of 55 million boe, comprised of positive revisions of 77 million boe and negative price revisions of 22 million boe. The positive revisions resulted from well performance (50%), updated yield and decline factors (30%) and other changes (20%), primarily driven by cost reductions. In the Gulf of Mexico, net negative revisions were 8 million boe, including 2 million boe of In Guyana, revisions increased proved developed reserves by 47 million boe related to performance (55%), improved recovery associated with water injection (35%), and increased natural gas for consumption (10%). In Malaysia and JDA, net revisions to proved developed reserves were an increase of 18 million boe due to performance at North Malay Basin and JDA (80%) and the impact of lower crude oil prices on entitlement allocations in the production sharing contract at JDA (20%). Other had negative revisions to proved developed reserves of 4 million boe, primarily in Libya. Revisions associated with negative price revisions. proved undeveloped reserves are discussed in further detail on page 93. Sales of minerals in place (‘Asset sales’) 2022: Asset sales relate to the divestiture of our working interest in the Waha Concession in Libya. 2021: Asset sales relate to the divestiture of our working interests in Denmark and our acreage interests in the Little Knife and Murphy Creek area of the Bakken.

These decreases were partially offset by positive revisions of 52 million boe, primarily due to optimized In Guyana, net positive reserve revisions for Liza Phase 1 and Phase 2 development spacing and increased well productivity. k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 3 9 92 93 93 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 93 3/1/23 2:40 PM K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:56PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 121285 10k 94 9 4 1 2 1 2 8 5 1 0 k totaling 42 million boe resulted from improved recovery associated with water injection (45%), the impact of lower crude oil prices on entitlement allocations in the production sharing contract (40%) and increased natural gas for consumption (15%). For Other, net negative reserves revisions were 14 million boe in Libya and 11 million boe in Denmark due to moving planned wells outside our five-year plan in response to the decline in crude oil prices in 2020. Transfers to proved developed reserves (‘Transfers’) 2022: Transfers from proved undeveloped reserves totaled 79 million boe in Guyana primarily related to the startup of production from the Liza Phase 2 development in February 2022. In the United States, Transfers were 59 million boe in the Bakken and 4 million boe in the Gulf of Mexico resulting from drilling activity. Transfers in the United States for 2022 were consistent with the development plan used to determine proved reserves at December 31, 2021. In the Bakken, we added a fourth rig in July 2022, and we plan to operate four rigs going forward. In Malaysia and JDA, Transfers of 9 million boe resulted from drilling activity. 2021: Transfers from proved undeveloped reserves resulting from drilling activity included 19 million boe in the Bakken, and 4 million boe at JDA. Transfers in 2021 were consistent with the development plan used to determine proved reserves at December 31, 2020. 2020: Transfers from proved undeveloped reserves resulting from drilling activity included 83 million boe in the Bakken, 2 million boe in the Gulf of Mexico, 8 million boe for Liza Phase 1 in Guyana, and 7 million boe in the North Malay Basin. In 2022, capital expenditures of $1,780 million were incurred to convert proved undeveloped reserves to proved developed reserves (2021: $190 million; 2020: $1,090 million). Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows Relating to Proved Oil and Gas Reserves Future net cash flows are calculated by applying prescribed oil and gas selling prices used in determining year-end reserve estimates (adjusted for price changes provided by contractual arrangements) to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves, less estimated future development costs (including future abandonment expenditures) and future production costs, which are based on year-end costs and existing economic assumptions. Future income tax expenses are computed by applying the appropriate year-end statutory tax rates to the pre-tax net cash flows, as well as including the effect of tax deductions and tax credits and allowances relating to the Corporation’s proved oil and gas reserves. Future net cash flows are discounted at the prescribed rate of 10%. The prices used for the discounted future net cash flows in 2022 were $94.13 per barrel for WTI (2021: $66.34; 2020: $39.77) and $97.98 per barrel for Brent (2021: $68.92; 2020: $43.43) and do not include the effects of commodity hedges. NYMEX natural gas prices used were $6.44 per mcf in 2022 (2021: $3.68; 2020: $2.16). Selling prices have in the past, and can in the future, fluctuate significantly. As a result, selling prices used in the disclosure of future net cash flows may not be representative of future selling prices. The discounted future net cash flow estimates do not include exploration expenses, interest expense or corporate general and administrative expenses. The amount of tax deductions, credits, and allowances relating to the Corporation’s proved oil and gas reserves can change year to year due to factors including changes in proved reserves, variances in actual pre-tax cash flows from forecasted pre-tax cash flows in historical periods, and the impact to year-end carryforward tax attributes associated with deducting in the Corporation’s income tax returns exploration expenses, interest expense, and corporate general and administrative expenses that are not contemplated in the standardized measure computations. The future net cash flow estimates could be materially different if other assumptions were used. At December 31, 2022, projects that have proved reserves that have been classified as undeveloped for a period in excess of five years totaled 14 million boe, or approximately 1% of total proved reserves, related to the multi-phase offshore developments, primarily at the Stabroek Block, offshore Guyana, and North Malay Basin, offshore Malaysia. At December 31 Production Sharing Contracts The Corporation’s proved reserves include crude oil and natural gas reserves relating to long-term agreements with governments or authorities in which the Corporation has the legal right to produce or has a revenue interest in the production. The Corporation's operations with these production sharing arrangements include those in Guyana, Malaysia, and the JDA. Proved reserves for each of the three years ended December 31, 2022, as well as volumes produced and received during 2022, 2021 and 2020 from these production sharing contracts are presented in the proved reserve tables on pages 90 and 91. Revisions resulting from the entitlement impact of price changes in production sharing contracts decreased proved reserves by 14 million boe in 2022 (2021: 17 million boe decrease; 2020: 22 million boe increase). 94 95 Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows................... $ $ $ 1,646 $ $ (a) Other includes our interests in Libya (sold in November 2022) and Denmark (sold in August 2021). k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 4 9 94 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 94 3/1/23 2:40 PM K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:56PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 Future revenues............................................................................................... $ 80,822 $ 50,373 $ 28,060 $ 2,389 $ Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows................... $ $ $ $ $ Future revenues............................................................................................... $ 55,788 $ 32,054 $ 13,940 $ 2,759 $ 7,035 2022 Less: 2021 Less: 2020 Less: Future production costs ............................................................................

This evaluation was completed on February 1, 2023. Hess has represented that these properties account for approximately 89 percent on a net equivalent barrel basis of Hess’ net proved reserves, as of December 31, 2022, and that the net proved reserves estimates have been prepared in accordance with the reserves definitions of Rules 4-10(a) (1)–(32) of Regulation S–X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). It is our opinion that the procedures and methodologies employed by Hess for the preparation of its proved reserves estimates as of December 31, 2022, comply with the current requirements of the SEC. We have reviewed information provided by Hess that it represents to be Hess’ estimates of the net reserves, as of December 31, 2022, for the same properties as those which we evaluated. This report was prepared in accordance with guidelines specified in Item 1202 (a)(8) of Regulation S–K and is to be used for inclusion in certain SEC filings by Hess. Reserves estimates included herein are expressed as net reserves as represented by Hess. Gross reserves are defined as the total estimated petroleum remaining to be produced from these properties after December 31, 2022. Net reserves are defined as that portion of the gross reserves attributable to the interests held by Hess after deducting all interests held by others. A signed original of this written statement required by Section 906 has been provided to the Corporation and will be retained by the Corporation and furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff upon request. Certain properties evaluated herein are subject to the terms of production sharing contracts (PSC). The terms of these PSCs generally allow for working interest participants to be reimbursed for portions of capital costs and operational expenses, Exhibit 99.1 DeGolyer and MacNaughton 5001 Spring Valley Road Suite 800 East Dallas, Texas 75244 February 1, 2023 k 0 1 5 8 2 1 2 1 0 1 1 3/1/23 2:40 PM 110 121285 10k 121285_10k.indd 110 K 8.500 in x 11.000 in Hess Corp 03.01.2023 14:57PM 121285 Al Wallerstein 121285 10k tmurray file://sanjfs5.sa1.com/Sandy2/121285 CERTIFICATION PURSUANT TO 18 U.S.C.

Estimates of reserves should be regarded only as estimates that may change as further production history and additional information become available. Not only are such estimates based on that information which is currently available, but such estimates are also subject to the uncertainties inherent in the application of judgmental factors in interpreting such information. Information used in the preparation of this report was obtained from Hess. In the preparation of this report we have relied, without independent verification, upon such information furnished by Hess with respect to the property interests being evaluated, production from such properties, current costs of operation and development, current prices for production, agreements relating to current and future operations and sale of production, and various other information and data that were accepted as represented. A field examination was not considered necessary for the purposes of this report. Definition of Reserves Petroleum reserves estimated by Hess included in this report are classified as proved. Only proved reserves have been evaluated for this report. Reserves classifications used by Hess in this report are in accordance with the reserves definitions of Rules 4–10(a) (1)–(32) of Regulation S–X of the SEC. Reserves are judged to be economically producible in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions and assuming continuation of current regulatory practices using conventional production methods and equipment. In the analyses of production-decline curves, reserves were estimated only to the limit of economic rates of production under existing economic and operating conditions using prices and costs consistent with the effective date of this report, including consideration of changes in existing prices provided only by contractual arrangements but not including escalations based upon future conditions. The petroleum reserves are classified as follows: Proved oil and gas reserves – Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible—from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations—prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time. (i) The area of the reservoir considered as proved includes: (A) The area identified by drilling and limited by fluid contacts, if any; and, (B) Adjacent undrilled portions of the reservoir that can, with reasonable certainty, be judged to be continuous with it and to contain economically producible oil or gas on the basis of available geoscience and engineering data. (ii) In the absence of data on fluid contacts, proved quantities in a reservoir are limited by the lowest known hydrocarbons (LKH) as seen in a well penetration unless geoscience, engineering, or performance data and reliable technology establishes a lower contact with reasonable certainty. (iii) Where direct observation from well penetrations has defined a highest known oil (HKO) elevation and the potential exists for an associated gas cap, proved oil reserves may be assigned in the structurally higher portions of the reservoir only if geoscience, engineering, or performance data and reliable technology establish the higher contact with reasonable certainty.

In the analyses of production- decline curves, reserves were estimated only to the limits of economic production as defined under the Definition of Reserves heading of this report or the expiration of the fiscal agreement, as appropriate. For the evaluation of unconventional reservoirs, a performance-based methodology integrating the appropriate geology and petroleum engineering data was utilized for this report. Performance-based methodology primarily includes (1) production diagnostics, (2) decline-curve analysis, and (3) model-based analysis (if necessary, based on availability of data). Production diagnostics include data quality control, identification of flow regimes, and characteristic well performance behavior. These analyses were performed for all well groupings (or type-curve areas). Characteristic rate-decline profiles from diagnostic interpretation were translated to modified hyperbolic rate profiles, including one or multiple b-exponent values followed by an exponential decline. Based on the availability of data, model-based analysis may be integrated to evaluate long-term decline behavior, the effect of dynamic reservoir and fracture parameters on well performance, and complex situations sourced by the nature of unconventional reservoirs. When applicable, the volumetric method was used to estimate the original oil in place (OOIP) and original gas in place (OGIP). Structure maps were prepared to delineate each reservoir, and isopach maps were constructed to estimate reservoir volume. Electrical logs, radioactivity logs, core analyses, and other available data were used to prepare these maps as well as to estimate representative values for porosity and water saturation. When adequate data were available and when circumstances justified, material- balance methods were used to estimate OOIP or OGIP. Estimates of ultimate recovery were obtained after applying recovery factors to OOIP and OGIP. These recovery factors were based on consideration of the type of energy inherent in the reservoirs, analyses of the petroleum, the structural positions of the properties, and the production histories. When applicable, material balance and other engineering methods were used to estimate recovery factors based on an analysis of reservoir performance, including production rate, reservoir pressure, and reservoir fluid properties. For depletion-type reservoirs or those whose performance disclosed a reliable decline in producing-rate trends or other diagnostic characteristics, reserves were In certain cases, reserves were estimated by incorporating elements of analogy with similar wells or reservoirs for which more complete data were available. In the evaluation of undeveloped reserves, type-well analysis was performed using well data from analogous reservoirs for which more complete historical performance data were available. Data provided by Hess from wells drilled through December 1, 2022, and made available for this evaluation were used to prepare the reserves estimates herein. These reserves estimates were based on consideration of monthly production data available for most properties through August 2022. Estimated cumulative production, as of December 31, 2022, was deducted from the estimated gross ultimate recovery to estimate gross reserves. This required that production be estimated for up to 6 months. Oil and condensate reserves estimated herein are to be recovered by normal field separation.

Primary Economic Assumptions This report has been prepared using initial prices, expenses, and costs provided by Hess in United States dollars (U.S.$). Future prices were estimated using guidelines established by the SEC and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). The following economic assumptions were used for estimating the reserves reported herein: Oil and Condensate Prices Hess has represented that the oil and condensate prices were based on a reference price, calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within the 12-month period prior to the end of the reporting period, unless prices are defined by contractual agreements. The 12- month average reference prices used were U.S.$94.13 per barrel for West Texas Intermediate and U.S. $97.98 per barrel for Brent.

Hess has represented that gas prices were based on reference prices, calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of- the-month price for each month within the 12-month period prior to the end of the reporting period, unless prices are defined by contractual agreements. The 12-month average reference price for NYMEX was U.S.$6.44 per million Btu. The gas prices were adjusted for each property using differentials to the NYMEX reference price furnished by Hess and held constant thereafter. The volume-weighted average price attributable to the estimated proved reserves over the lives of the independently evaluated properties was U.S.$5.77 per thousand cubic feet of gas.

DeGolyer and MacNaughton has performed an independent evaluation of the extent of the estimated net proved oil, condensate, NGL, and gas reserves of certain properties in which Hess has represented it holds an interest. Hess has represented that its estimated net proved reserves attributable to the evaluated properties were based on the definition of proved reserves of the SEC. Hess’ estimates of the net proved reserves, as of December 31, 2022, attributable to these properties, which represent approximately 89 percent of Hess’ reserves on a net equivalent basis, are summarized as follows, expressed in millions of barrels (106bbl), billions of cubic feet (109ft3), and millions of barrels of oil equivalent (106boe): To the extent the above-enumerated rules, regulations, and statements require determinations of an accounting or legal nature, we, as engineers, are necessarily unable to express an opinion as to whether the above-described information is in accordance therewith or sufficient therefor.

Hess’ estimates of the net proved reserves, as of December 31, 2022, attributable to these properties, which represent approximately 89 percent of Hess’ reserves on a net equivalent basis, are summarized as follows, expressed in millions of barrels (106bbl), billions of cubic feet (109ft3), and millions of barrels of oil equivalent (106boe): Estimated by Hess Net Proved Reserves as of December 31, 2022 Oil and Condensate (106bbl) NGL (106bbl) Marketable Gas (109ft3) Oil Equivalent (106boe) United States Guyana Malaysia and JDA Total 453 191 3 647 242 0 0 242 960 59 375 1,394 855 201 66 1,122 Notes: 1. 2. 3. Marketable gas reserves estimated herein were converted to oil equivalent using an energy equivalent factor of 6,000 cubic feet of gas per 1 barrel of oil equivalent. Net proved fuel gas reserves included as a portion of marketable gas reserves were estimated to be 145 109ft3. Joint Development Area is abbreviated JDA. In comparing the detailed net proved reserves estimates by field prepared by DeGolyer and MacNaughton and by Hess, differences have been found, both positive and negative, resulting in an aggregate difference of approximately 2.6 percent when compared on the basis of net equivalent barrels. It is DeGolyer and MacNaughton’s opinion that the total net proved reserves estimates prepared by Hess, as of December 31, 2022, on the properties evaluated and referred to above, when compared on the basis of net equivalent barrels, do not differ materially from those prepared by DeGolyer and MacNaughton. Hess’ oil and gas reserves were estimated assuming the continuation of the current regulatory environment.
