- Part 6: For the preceding part double click ID:nRSc0740Pe
includes information about significant but not temporary decline in
the fair value of the equity investment instrument below its cost. The Group assesses equity instruments classified as
available-for-sale separately at the end of each reporting period, it will be considered as impaired if the fair value of
the equity instrument at reporting date is less than its initial investment cost over 50% (including 50%) or the duration
of the fair value below its initial investment cost is more than one (including one) year, if the fair value of the equity
instrument at reporting date is less than its initial investment cost over 20% (including 20%) but below 50%, other related
factors such as price volatility will be taken into consideration to assess if it is impaired.
When available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value are impaired, despite not being derecognised, the
cumulative losses resulted from the decrease in fair value which had previously been recognised directly in shareholders'
equity, are reversed and charged to profit or loss.
3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(11) Impairment of financial assets and non-financial long-term assets (Continued)
(a) Impairment of financial assets (Continued)
- Available-for-sale financial assets (Continued)
When available-for-sale financial assets measured at cost are impaired, the differences between the book value and the
discounted present value with the market return of similar financial assets are charged to profit or loss.
Impairment loss of available-for-sale debt instrument is reversed, if the reason for the subsequent increase in fair value
is objectively as a result of an event occurred after the recognition of the impairment loss. Impairment loss for
available-for-sale equity instrument is not reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss for available-for-sale
financial assets measured by the cost cannot be reversed in the following period.
(b) Impairment of other non-financial long-term assets
Internal and external sources of information are reviewed at each balance sheet date for indications that the following
assets, including fixed assets, oil and gas properties, construction in progress, goodwill, intangible assets and
investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures may be impaired.
Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not
be recoverable. The recoverable amounts of goodwill and intangible assets with uncertain useful lives are estimated
annually no matter there are any indications of impairment. Goodwill is tested for impairment together with related asset
units or groups of asset units.
An asset unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows largely independent of the cash
inflows from other assets or groups of assets. An asset unit comprises related assets that generate associated cash
inflows. In identifying an asset unit, the Group primarily considers whether the asset unit is able to generate cash
inflows independently as well as the management style of production and operational activities, and the decision for the
use or disposal of asset.
The recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value less costs to sell and the present value of expected future cash
flows generated by the asset (or asset unit, set of asset units).
Fair value less costs to sell of an asset is based on its selling price in an arm's length transaction less any direct
costs attributable to the disposal. Present value of expected future cash flows is the estimation of future cash flows to
be generated from the use of and upon disposal of the asset, discounted at an appropriate pre-tax discount rate over the
asset's remaining useful life.
If the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable
amount. The amount by which the carrying amount is reduced is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. A
provision for impairment loss of the asset is recognised accordingly. Impairment losses related to an asset unit or a set
of asset units first reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the asset unit or set of asset units, and then
reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the asset unit or set of asset units on a pro rata basis. However, the
carrying amount of an impaired asset will not be reduced below the highest of its individual fair value less costs to sell
(if determinable), the present value of expected future cash flows (if determinable) and zero.
Impairment losses for assets are not reversed.
(12) Long-term deferred expenses
Long-term deferred expenses are amortised on a straight-line basis over their beneficial periods.
(13) Employee benefits
Employee benefits are all forms of considerations and compensation given in exchange for services rendered by employees,
including short term compensation, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other long term employee benefits.
(a) Short term compensation
Short term compensation includes salaries, bonuses, allowances and subsidies, employee benefits, medical insurance
premiums, work-related injury insurance premium, maternity insurance premium, contributions to housing fund, unions and
education fund and short-term absence with payment etc. When an employee has rendered service to the Group during an
accounting period, the Group shall recognise the short term compensation actually incurred as a liability and charged to
the cost of an asset or to profit or loss in the same period, and non-monetary benefits are valued with the fair value.
3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(13) Employee benefits (Continued)
(b) Post-employment benefits
The Group classifies post-employment benefits into either Defined Contribution Plan (DC plan) or Defined Benefit Plan (DB
plan). DC plan means the Group only contributes a fixed amount to an independent fund and no longer bears other payment
obligation; DB plan is post-employment benefits other than DC plan. In this reporting period, the post-employment benefits
of the Group primarily comprise basic pension insurance and unemployment insurance and both of them are DC plans.
Basic pension insurance
Employees of the Group participate in the social insurance system established and managed by local labor and social
security department. The Group makes basic pension insurance to the local social insurance agencies every month, at the
applicable benchmarks and rates stipulated by the government for the benefits of its employees. After the employees retire,
the local labor and social security department has obligations to pay them the basic pension. When an employee has rendered
service to the Group during an accounting period, the Group shall recognise the accrued amount according to the above
social security provisions as a liability and charged to the cost of an asset or to profit or loss in the same period.
(c) Termination benefits
When the Group terminates the employment relationship with employees before the employment contracts expire, or provides
compensation as an offer to encourage employees to accept voluntary redundancy, a provision for the termination benefits
provided is recognised in profit or loss under the conditions of both the Group has a formal plan for the termination of
employment or has made an offer to employees for voluntary redundancy, which will be implemented shortly; and the Group is
not allowed to withdraw from termination plan or redundancy offer unilaterally.
(14) Income tax
Current tax and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that they relate to business
combinations and items recognised directly in equity (including other comprehensive income).
Current tax is the expected tax payable calculated at the applicable tax rate on taxable income for the year, plus any
adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
At the balance sheet date, current tax assets and liabilities are offset if the Group has a legally enforceable right to
set them off and also intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability
simultaneously.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised based on deductible temporary differences and taxable temporary
differences respectively. Temporary difference is the difference between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and
their tax bases. Unused tax losses and unused tax credits able to be utilised in subsequent years are treated as temporary
differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be
available to offset the deductible temporary differences.
Temporary differences arise in a transaction, which is not a business combination, and at the time of transaction, does not
affect accounting profit or taxable profit (or unused tax losses), will not result in deferred tax. Temporary differences
arising from the initial recognition of goodwill will not result in deferred tax.
At the balance sheet date, the amounts of deferred tax recognised is measured based on the expected manner of recovery or
settlement of the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities, using tax rates that are expected to be applied in the
period when the asset is recovered or the liability is settled in accordance with tax laws.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date. If it is unlikely to obtain sufficient
taxable income to offset against the benefit of deferred tax asset, the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets is
written down. Any such write-down should be subsequently reversed where it becomes probable that sufficient taxable income
will be available.
At the balance sheet date, deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if all the following conditions are met:
- the taxable entity has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and current tax liabilities; and
- they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on either:
- the same taxable entity; or
- different taxable entities which either to intend to settle the current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to
realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of
deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.
3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(15) Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a contingent event, it is probable that an
outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligations and a reliable estimate can be made. Where the
effect of time value of money is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows.
Provisions for future dismantlement costs are initially recognised based on the present value of the future costs expected
to be incurred in respect of the Group's expected dismantlement and abandonment costs at the end of related oil and gas
exploration and development activities. Any subsequent change in the present value of the estimated costs, other than the
change due to passage of time which is regarded as interest costs, is reflected as an adjustment to the provision of oil
and gas properties.
(16) Revenue recognition
Revenue is the gross inflow of economic benefits arising in the course of the Group's normal activities when the inflows
result in increase in shareholder's equity, other than increase relating to contributions from shareholders. Revenue is
recognised in profit or loss when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group, the revenue and costs
can be measured reliably and the following respective conditions are met.
(a) Revenues from sales of goods
Revenue from the sales of goods is recognised when all of the general conditions stated above and following conditions are
satisfied:
- the significant risks and rewards of ownership and title have been transferred to buyers; and
- the Group does not retain the management rights, which is normally associated with owner, on goods sold and has no
control over the goods sold.
Revenue from the sales of goods is measured at fair value of the considerations received or receivable under the sales
contract or agreement.
(b) Revenues from rendering services
The Group determines the revenue from the rendering of services according to the fair value of the received or to-be
received price of the party that receives the services as stipulated in the contract or agreement.
At the balance sheet date, when the outcome of a transaction involving the rendering of services can be estimated reliably,
revenue from rendering of services is recognised in the income statement by reference to the stage of completion of the
transaction based on the proportion of services performed to date to the total services to be performed.
When the outcome of rendering the services cannot be estimated reliably, revenues are recognised only to the extent that
the costs incurred are expected to be recoverable. If the costs of rendering of services are not expected to be
recoverable, the costs are recognised in profit or loss when incurred, and revenues are not recognised.
(c) Interest income
Interest income is recognised on a time proportion basis with reference to the principal outstanding and the applicable
effective interest rate.
(17) Government grants
Government grants are the gratuitous monetary assets or non-monetary assets that the Group receives from the government,
excluding capital injection by the government as an investor. Special funds such as investment grants allocated by the
government, if clearly defined in official documents as part of "capital reserve" are dealt with as capital contributions,
and not regarded as government grants.
Government grants are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that the grants will be received and the Group is able
to comply with the conditions attaching to them. Government grants in the form of monetary assets are recorded based on the
amount received or receivable, whereas non-monetary assets are measured at fair value.
Government grants received in relation to assets are recorded as deferred income, and recognised evenly in profit or loss
over the assets' useful lives. Government grants received in relation to revenue are recorded as deferred income, and
recognised as income in future periods as compensation when the associated future expenses or losses arise; or directly
recognised as income in the current period as compensation for past expenses or losses.
(18) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs incurred on borrowings for the acquisition, construction or production of qualified assets are capitalised
into the cost of the related assets.
Except for the above, other borrowing costs are recognised as financial expenses in the income statement when incurred.
3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(19) Repairs and maintenance expenses
Repairs and maintenance (including overhauling expenses) expenses are recognised in profit or loss when incurred.
(20) Environmental expenditures
Environmental expenditures that relate to current ongoing operations or to conditions caused by past operations is expensed
as incurred. Liabilities related to future remediation costs are recorded when environmental assessments and/or cleanups
are probable and the costs can be reliably estimated. As facts concerning environmental contingencies become known to the
Group, the Group reassesses its position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures.
(21) Research and development costs
Research costs and development costs that cannot meet the capitalisation criteria are recognised in profit or loss when
incurred.
(22) Operating leases
Operating lease payments are charged as expenses on a straight-line basis over the period of the respective leases.
(23) Dividends
Dividends and distributions of profits proposed in the profit appropriation plan which will be authorised and declared
after the balance sheet date, are not recognised as a liability at the balance sheet date and are separately disclosed in
the notes to the financial statements. Dividends are recognised as a liability in the period in which they are declared.
(24) Related parties
If a party has the power to control, jointly control or exercise significant influence over another party, or vice versa,
or where two or more parties are subject to common control, joint control from another party, they are considered to be
related parties. Related parties may be individuals or enterprises. Where enterprises are subject to state control but are
otherwise unrelated, they are not related parties. Related parties of the Group and the Company include, but not limited
to:
(a) the holding company of the Company;
(b) the subsidiaries of the Company;
(c) the parties that are subject to common control with the Company;
(d) investors that have joint control or exercise significant influence over the Group;
(e) enterprises or individuals if a party has control, joint control over both the enterprises or individuals and the

(k) close family members of key management personnel of the Company's holding company; and
(l) an entity which is under control, joint control of principle individual investor, key management personnel or close
family members of such individuals.
(25) Segment reporting
Reportable segments are identified based on operating segments which are determined based on the structure of the Group's
internal organisation, management requirements and internal reporting system. An operating segment is a component of the
Group that meets the following respective conditions:
- engage in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses;
- whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group's management to make decisions about resource to be
allocated to the segment and assess its performance; and
- for which financial information regarding financial position, results of operations and cash flows are available.
Inter-segment revenues are measured on the basis of actual transaction price for such transactions for segment reporting,
and segment accounting policies are consistent with those for the consolidated financial statements.
