ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS
This document has two parts. The first part consists of this prospectus supplement, which describes the specific terms of this offering and the
notes offered. The second part is the accompanying prospectus, dated October 17, 2018, which provides more general information, some of which may not
apply to this offering. To the extent there is a conflict between the information contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus or
any document incorporated by reference herein that was filed with the Securities and Exchange commission (the "SEC") prior to the date of this prospectus
supplement, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement.
In this prospectus supplement, we refer to Murphy Oil Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries as "we," "our," "us," the "Company,"

disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents. The information incorporated by reference or deemed incorporated by reference

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including the documents we incorporate by reference, contains forward-looking
statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which express management's current views concerning
future events or results, are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or
implied in our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the volatility and level of crude oil and natural gas prices, the level and success
rate of Murphy's exploration programs, the Company's ability to maintain production rates and replace reserves, customer demand for Murphy's products,
adverse foreign exchange movements, political and regulatory instability, adverse developments in the U.S. or global capital markets, credit markets or
economies generally, uncontrollable natural hazards, and risks that the Tender Offers (as defined herein) is not consummated on the anticipated terms, if at
all, as well as any of the other factors contained under the caption "Risk Factors" in this prospectus supplement or in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2018 and in any subsequent document that we have or may file with the SEC. We undertake no duty to publicly update or
revise any forward-looking statements.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
While Murphy Oil reports financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"), this prospectus
supplement includes certain non-GAAP measures, including EBITDA, EBITDA from continuing operations, EBITDAX from continuing operations,
Adjusted EBITDAX and PV-10. EBITDA means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA from continuing operations
means EBITDA plus discontinued operations loss (income) and impairment of assets. EBITDAX from continuing operations means EBITDA plus
discontinued operations loss (income), impairment of assets and exploration expenses. Adjusted EBITDAX means EBITDAX from continuing operations
plus mark-to-market (gains) losses, accretion of asset retirement obligations, foreign exchange losses (gains) and other nonrecurring (gains) expenses.
PV-10 represents present value, discounted at 10% per annum, of estimated future net revenue before income tax of our estimated proved reserves.
Management has included a presentation of EBITDA, EBITDA from continuing operations, EBITDAX from continuing operations and
Adjusted EBITDAX in this prospectus supplement, because they are used by management to evaluate the Company's operational performance and trends
between periods and relative to industry competitors. In addition, management believes they may be useful to investors and analysts to gain a better
understanding of the Company's financial results and to assess the Company's ability to service its debt. However, EBITDA, EBITDA from continuing
operations, EBITDAX from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAX are not GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures of other companies. You should not consider EBITDA, EBITDA from continuing operations, EBITDAX from continuing operations or Adjusted
EBITDAX as an alternative to net income, cash provided by operating activities or any other GAAP financial measure of performance, as indicators of our
operating performance, or as measures of liquidity. EBITDA, EBITDA from continuing operations, EBITDAX from continuing operations and Adjusted
EBITDAX do not represent funds available for management's discretionary use because certain future cash expenditures are not reflected in EBITDA,
EBITDA from continuing operations, EBITDAX from continuing operations or Adjusted EBITDAX. It should also be noted that all companies do not
calculate EBITDA, EBITDA from continuing operations, EBITDAX from continuing operations or Adjusted EBITDAX in the same manner and,
accordingly, EBITDA, EBITDA from continuing operations, EBITDAX from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAX presented in this prospectus
supplement may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. We have included reconciliations of EBITDA, EBITDA from
continuing operations, EBITDAX from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAX to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. See
"Summary--Summary Consolidated Historical Financial Data."
Management has included a presentation of PV-10, because it is widely used by professional analysts and sophisticated investors in evaluating oil
and gas companies. PV-10 should not be considered as an alternative to the standardized measure as defined under GAAP. We have included a
reconciliation of PV-10 to standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. See "Summary--
Summary Consolidated Historical Financial Data."

SUMMARY
This summary description of our business and the offering may not contain all of the information that may be important to you. For a
more complete understanding of our business and this offering, we encourage you to read this entire prospectus supplement, the accompanying
prospectus, any free writing prospectus prepared by us that we may provide you in connection with this offering and the documents incorporated by
reference herein and therein. In particular, you should read the following summary together with the more detailed information and consolidated
financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the
accompanying prospectus. You should also carefully consider the matters discussed under the caption "Risk Factors."
Company Overview
Murphy Oil Corporation is an international oil and gas exploration and production company. The Company explores for and produces
crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGL) worldwide. The Company maintains upstream operating offices, with the most significant of these
including Houston in Texas and Calgary in Alberta.
Murphy Oil's reported total crude oil and condensate production in 2018 averaged 92,114 barrels per day ("Bbl/d") (including 28,676
Bbl/d in Malaysia), an increase of 2% compared to 2017. NGL production in 2018 averaged 9,590 Bbl/d (including 792 Bbl/d in Malaysia), largely in
line with 9,151 Bbl/d (including 829 Bbl/d in Malaysia) produced in 2017. The Company's worldwide production volume of natural gas averaged
422.8 million cubic feet per day ("MMcf/d") (including 110.2MMcf/d in Malaysia) in 2018, up 10% from 2017 levels. The increase in natural gas
sales volume in 2018 was attributable to an 18% increase in natural gas production in Canada, primarily in Tupper and Placid areas as well as
increase in gas production in the Gulf of Mexico. Total worldwide 2018 production on a barrel of oil equivalent basis (six thousand cubic feet of
natural gas equals one barrel of oil) was approximately 172,172 barrels of oil equivalent per day ("Boe/d") (including 47.8 Boe/d in Malaysia), an
increase of 5.3% compared to 2017.
Total worldwide production averaged 178,658 Boe/d during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a 48% increase from 120,533
Boe/d produced in the same period in 2018, in each case excluding Malaysia. The increase is principally due to the acquisition of producing Gulf of
Mexico assets as part of the MP GOM JV Transaction (defined below) in the fourth quarter of 2018 and the addition of further Gulf of Mexico assets
as part of the LLOG Acquisition (defined below) in the second quarter of 2019.
Crude oil and condensate production (excluding Malaysia) averaged 110,762 Bbl/d during the nine months ended September 30, 2019
compared to 59,645 Bbl/d over the same period in 2018. The increase of 51,117 Bbl/d was principally due to higher volumes in the Gulf of Mexico
due to the acquisition of assets as part of the MP GOM JV Transaction. On a Boe basis, the MP GOM JV Transaction contributed 43,881 Boe/d for
the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and the LLOG Acquisition contributed 13,864 Boe/d for the period from May 31, 2019 to September 30,
2019. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company's sales price for crude oil and condensate (excluding Malaysia) averaged $60.84
per barrel, down from $68.55 per barrel in the same period in 2018. Approximately 94% of oil barrels sold during the third quarter of 2019 (excluding
Malaysia) sold at a premium to the average West Texas Intermediate price of $56.45.
Total production of NGL (excluding Malaysia) was 10,990 Bbl/d in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to 8,852 Bbl/d
in the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The average sales price for U.S. NGL was $15.22 per barrel in the nine months ended September 30,
2019 compared to $26.90 per barrel in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Natural gas sales volumes from continuing operations (excluding Malaysia) averaged 341 MMcf/d in the nine months ended
September 30, 2019 compared to 312 MMcf/d in the nine months ended September 30,

Table of Contents
2018. The increase of 29 MMcf/d was primarily the result of higher volumes in the Gulf of Mexico. Higher volumes in the Gulf of Mexico are due to
the acquisition of assets related to the MP GOM JV Transaction and the LLOG Acquisition. The average sales price for natural gas (excluding
Malaysia) in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $1.71 per thousand cubic feet (MCF), versus $1.81 per MCF realized in the same period
in 2018.
Portfolio Transformation
On November 30, 2018, Murphy Exploration & Production Company USA ("Murphy Exploration") and Petrobras America Inc.
("PAI"), a subsidiary of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A., closed a transaction among Murphy Exploration, PAI and MP Gulf of Mexico, LLC ("MP GOM"), a
subsidiary of Murphy Exploration (the "MP GOM JV Transaction"). The MP GOM JV Transaction had an effective date of October 1, 2018. Under
the terms of the MP GOM JV Transaction, Murphy Exploration paid cash consideration of $794.6 million and transferred a 20% interest in MP GOM
to PAI. Murphy Exploration could also owe additional contingent consideration of up to $150 million if certain sales thresholds are exceeded
beginning in 2019 through 2025. PAI and Murphy Exploration contributed all of their Gulf of Mexico producing assets and Murphy Exploration
contributed its interest in the Medusa Spar LLC to MP GOM. Following closing of the MP GOM JV Transaction, MP GOM is owned 80% by
Murphy Exploration and 20% by PAI.
On May 31, 2019, we closed the acquisition (the "LLOG Acquisition") of deep water Gulf of Mexico assets comprising 26 blocks in the
Mississippi Canyon and Green Canyon areas from LLOG Exploration Offshore, L.L.C. and LLOG Bluewater Holdings, L.L.C. (collectively,
"LLOG") pursuant to the definitive agreement dated April 19, 2019, as amended on May 31, 2019, between our wholly owned subsidiary, Murphy
Exploration & Production Company--USA ("Murphy Exploration") and LLOG. After taking into account customary closing adjustments, Murphy
Exploration paid cash consideration of $1.227 billion in connection with the LLOG Acquisition. Additional contingent consideration payments may
become payable by Murphy Exploration based on the following: up to $200 million in the event that revenue from certain properties exceeds certain
contractual thresholds between 2019 and 2022; and $50 million following first oil from certain development projects. In connection with the LLOG
Acquisition, we incurred borrowings of $1,075 million under our revolving credit facility and a short-term loan in an aggregate principal amount of
$500 million. These borrowings, along with the $325 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility prior to the LLOG Acquisition, were
repaid in full in July 2019 following the completion of the Malaysia Divestment (defined below).
On July 10, 2019, we closed the divestiture of our fully issued share capital of our two subsidiaries conducting Malaysian operations to a
subsidiary of PTT Exploration and Production Public Company Limited for $2.0 billion in an all-cash transaction (the "Malaysia Divestment").
Effective January 1, 2019, Malaysia operations were reported as discontinued operations as the sale represents a strategic shift that has a major effect
on our operations and financial results. We are entitled to receive a $100.0 million bonus payment contingent upon certain future exploratory drilling
results prior to October 2020.
Refinancing Transactions
Concurrent Tender Offers
Concurrently with the commencement of this offering, we launched cash tender offers (the "Tender Offers") to purchase up to
