BHP BILLITON PRODUCTION REPORT FOR THE QUARTER ENDED 30
SEPTEMBER 2012
-- The release of latent capacity and robust operating
performance across our diversified portfolio continues to underpin
strong growth in our high margin businesses.
-- Petroleum production averaged a record 666 thousand barrels
of oil equivalent per day during the September 2012 quarter as the
Atlantis and Mad Dog facilities in the Gulf of Mexico successfully
recommenced production.
-- Queensland Coal volumes rose by 20% during the September 2012
quarter as BMA production increased to over 80% of supply chain
capacity.
-- Western Australia Iron Ore achieved another significant
milestone with first ore loaded from the two recently installed
shiploaders at Nelson Point as part of the Inner Harbour Expansion
project.
-- Escondida copper production remains on track to increase by
20% in the 2013 financial year following the completion of
scheduled maintenance and tie-in activities in the September 2012
quarter.

Total petroleum production- Petroleum production averaged a
record 666 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day during the
September 2012 quarter.
Crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids- Liquids
production increased by 17 per cent from the June 2012 quarter as
the Atlantis and Mad Dog facilities in the Gulf of Mexico (US)
successfully recommenced production. Reduced levels of planned
maintenance at Bass Strait and the North West Shelf (both
Australia) and development drilling at Shenzi (US) and Pyrenees
(Australia) also contributed to the strong result.
Onshore US liquids production increased to a record 3.9 million
barrels of oil equivalent (MMboe) during the September 2012
quarter. With the drilling program running ahead of infrastructure
development, robust growth is anticipated over the remainder of the
2013 financial year as pipeline capacity is installed and
additional wells are brought online.
Petroleum production guidance for the 2013 financial year
remains unchanged at 240 MMboe and includes an expected 15 per cent
increase in valuable liquids production, largely attributable to
our Onshore US business and Gulf of Mexico facilities.
Natural gas - Seasonally high gas demand at Bass Strait and
strong operational performance at North West Shelf underpinned a
quarterly production record for natural gas in the September 2012
quarter.

------------------------ ------------ ------------------ ------------------
Alumina - The ramp up of the Worsley Efficiency & Growth
project (Australia) and continued strong operating performance at
the Alumar refinery (Brazil) contributed to record alumina
production in the September 2012 quarter.
Aluminium - Production was higher than the June 2012 quarter as
potline capacity at Hillside (South Africa) recovered following a
major unplanned outage in the March 2012 quarter. Operations are
expected to progressively return to full technical capacity by the
end of the 2012 calendar year.

--------------------------------------------- -------- ---------- ----------
Copper - A 24 per cent increase in production from the September
2011 quarter reflected the mining of higher grade ore at Escondida
(Chile) and the impact of industrial action in the corresponding
period. Record quarterly production was achieved at Antamina (Peru)
as milling rates continued to exceed recently expanded ore
processing capacity.
A reduction in smelter throughput affected Olympic Dam
(Australia) production in the September 2012 quarter. A 27 day
smelter outage is scheduled for the December 2012 quarter.
Escondida copper production remains on track to increase by 20
per cent in the 2013 financial year following the completion of
scheduled maintenance and tie-in activities in the September 2012
quarter.
Lead/silver - Lower head grades at Cannington (Australia)
contributed to a reduction in lead and silver production in the
September 2012 quarter.
Zinc - Zinc production at Antamina declined during the September
2012 quarter as mining progressed through a copper-rich ore
zone.
Uranium - Production for the September 2012 quarter was broadly
in line with all comparable periods.

----------------------- -------- ------------------ ------------------
Diamonds ('000 carats) 313 -32% -24%
----------------------- -------- ------------------ ------------------
Diamonds - Production was lower than all comparable periods and
reflected temporarily restricted mining conditions and unscheduled
maintenance at EKATI (Canada). While production is expected to
recover in the December 2012 quarter, it is forecast to remain
constrained in the medium term as the operation extracts lower
grade material, consistent with the mine plan.
The sale of BHP Billiton's 37 per cent non-operated interest in
Richards Bay Minerals (South Africa) to Rio Tinto was completed
during the September 2012 quarter. The review of BHP Billiton's
diamonds business is continuing.

Nickel ('000 tonnes) 37.0 5% -13%
--------------------- ------------ ------------------ ------------------
Nickel - An increase in nickel metal production in the September
2012 quarter reflected strong operating performance at both Cerro
Matoso (Colombia) and the Nickel West Kwinana refinery (Australia).
Total saleable production declined as nickel matte was stockpiled
in advance of planned maintenance at the Nickel West Kalgoorlie
smelter in the December 2012 quarter.
Iron Ore

Iron ore ('000 tonnes) 39,772 1% -3%
----------------------- ------------ ------------------ ------------------
Iron ore - Western Australia Iron Ore (WAIO) sustained strong
performance in the September 2012 quarter despite the impact of a
planned shutdown associated with the Inner Harbour Expansion
project. Our Pilbara operations achieved another significant
milestone during the quarter with first ore loaded from two
recently installed shiploaders at Nelson Point.
WAIO production guidance remains unchanged with a five per cent
increase anticipated in the 2013 financial year.
Samarco's (Brazil) three pellet plants continued to operate at
capacity during the period.
Manganese

Manganese alloy ('000 tonnes) 130 -33% 73%
------------------------------ ------------ ------------------ ------------------
Manganese ore - Consistently strong operating performance and
improved plant availability at GEMCO (Australia) contributed to
record ore production in the September 2012 quarter.
Manganese alloy - The resumption of production at TEMCO
(Australia) in July 2012 led to a substantial increase in alloy
production from the June 2012 quarter. The decline in alloy
production from the September 2011 quarter reflected the permanent
closure of energy intensive silicomanganese production at Metalloys
(South Africa) in January 2012.
Metallurgical Coal

Metallurgical coal ('000 tonnes) 8,938 -4% 10%
--------------------------------- ------------ ------------------ ------------------
Metallurgical coal- Queensland Coal (Australia) production
increased by 20 per cent during the September 2012 quarter as
significant latent capacity was released across the supply chain.
Production at BMA benefited from a reduction in industrial activity
with no significant work stoppages experienced since July 2012. A
ballot on the BMA Enterprise Agreement will be conducted during
October 2012. During the September 2012 quarter, BMA announced it
would cease production at its Gregory open-cut mine following a
review of the mine's profitability.
A planned longwall move at the Appin mine led to lower
production at Illawarra Coal (Australia) during the September 2012
quarter. A longwall move at the Dendrobium mine is expected to
commence at the end of the December 2012 quarter.
Energy Coal
SEP 2012 QTR SEP Q12 vs SEP Q11 SEP Q12 vs JUN Q12
-------------------------- ------------ ------------------ ------------------
Energy coal ('000 tonnes) 19,607 6% 6%
-------------------------- ------------ ------------------ ------------------
Energy coal - Production was higher than all comparable periods
and reflected strong operating performance across the BHP Billiton
Energy Coal portfolio. New South Wales Energy Coal (Australia)
achieved record quarterly production following the completion of
the RX1 project in the June 2012 quarter, ahead of schedule. In
addition, the San Juan Coal mine (US) benefited from a full quarter
of production following the resumption of longwall mining activity
in the June 2012 quarter.
This report, together with the Exploration and Development
Report, represents the Interim Management Statement for the
purposes of the UK Listing Authority's Disclosure and Transparency
Rules. There have been no significant changes in the financial
position of the Group in the quarter ended 30 September 2012.
