    FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
    This press release and attached presentation contain forward-looking
statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could
cause our results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by
such forward-looking statements. All statements, other than statements of
historical fact, are statements that could be deemed "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995, including, without limitation, any projections of revenue,
gross margin, expenses, earnings or losses from operations, or other
financial items; future production volumes, results of exploration,
exploitation, development, acquisition and operations expenditures, and
prospective reserve levels of property or wells; any statements of the
plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any
statement concerning developments, performance or industry rankings
relating to services; any statements regarding future economic conditions
or performance; any statements of expectation or belief; any statements
regarding the proposed merger of Remington Oil and Gas Corporation into a
wholly owned subsidiary of Helix or the anticipated results (financial or
otherwise) thereof; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the
foregoing. The risks, uncertainties and assumptions referred to above
include the performance of contracts by suppliers, customers and partners;
employee management issues; complexities of global political and economic
developments, geologic risks and other risks described from time to time in
our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"),
including the Company's Annual Report on Form 10- K for the year ending
December 31, 2005; and, with respect to the proposed Remington merger,
actual results could differ materially from Helix's expectations depending
on factors such as the combined company's cost of capital, the ability of
the combined company to identify and implement cost savings, synergies and
efficiencies in the time frame needed to achieve these expectations, prior
contractual commitments of the combined companies and their ability to
terminate these commitments or amend, renegotiate or settle the same, the
combined company's actual capital needs, the absence of any material
incident of property damage or other hazard that could affect the need to
effect capital expenditures, any unforeseen merger or acquisition
opportunities that could affect capital needs, the costs incurred in
implementing synergies and the factors that generally affect both Helix's
and Remington's respective businesses as further outlined in "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"
in each of the companies' respective Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2005. Actual actions that the combined company may
take may differ from time to time as the combined company may deem
necessary or advisable in the best interest of the combined company and its
shareholders to attempt to achieve the successful integration of the
companies, the synergies needed to make the transaction a financial success
and to react to the economy and the combined company's market for its
exploration and production. We assume no obligation and do not intend to
update these forward-looking statements.
