TAQA's oil and gas production averaged a new record level of 158.5 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day during the nine month period, up 17% compared to the first nine months of 2013. The company increased its power generation capacity by 700 megawatt (MW) to 17,095 MW following the expansion of the Jorf Lasfar power station in Morocco.
Greater focus on managing costs and achieving greater business efficiencies resulted in a 9% reduction in general and administrative costs and reduced unit operating costs in our UK and North American businesses.
Higher production levels and increased operational efficiencies supported by higher oil and gas prices raised underlying revenues by 14% to 16,866 million dirhams, and resulted in a record EBITDA of 11,446 million dirhams, up 21% against the same period in 2013.
TAQA's net income after minority interests was 620 million dirhams, up from 80 million dirhams in the first nine months of 2013.
TAQA reduced its debt by over 3 billion dirhams by using excess cash flow and selling non-core assets.
