 "During the second quarter, we continued to demonstrate the earnings potential of
 our company as margins increased over already strong first-quarter levels," said
 LyondellBasell Chief Executive Officer Jim Gallogly. "Our EBITDA of more than
 $1.5 billion brings our first half EBITDA to nearly $3 billion."
 
 "In U.S. olefins, we continued to optimize plant operations across our assets,
 taking advantage of low-cost natural gas liquids while at the same time
 completing major maintenance activities at one of our Channelview olefins plants.
 Improved cracker and butadiene margins led to solid European olefins results,"
 added Gallogly. "Our Intermediates & Derivatives segment continued its strong,
 stable performance. Our Refining & Oxyfuels segment captured margin through
 improved operations and the purchase of advantaged crude oils for the Houston
 refinery while oxyfuels volumes increased and spreads widened during the summer
 driving season," Gallogly said.
 
 "The Supervisory Board now consists of a majority of independent directors
 following the election of four new members in May. During the second quarter, in
 addition to repaying 10 percent of our 8 percent Notes, we also paid our first
 dividend to shareholders," added Gallogly.
 
 OUTLOOK
 
 "Following a very strong first half of the year, we remain positive about the
 balance of 2011," commented Gallogly. "The Chinese polyolefins market is giving
 indications that it is recovering from its soft patch and although U.S. and
 European polymer markets are still adjusting to this disruption, we are entering
 a period of significant industry maintenance. Since our key U.S. maintenance
 projects have been completed for the year, we should be the beneficiary of
 tightened supply/demand conditions and any opportunities that this may create,"
 continued Gallogly.
 
 "Most importantly, the fundamentals that created strong first-half results remain
 intact," Gallogly said. "Specifically, we continue to benefit from the favorable
 ratio of U.S. natural gas prices to crude oil prices. The flexibility within our
 assets makes us particularly well suited to benefit from this environment.
 Additionally, our Houston refinery's ability to process discounted heavy crude
 oils further enhances our favorable position. The benefits we capture in this
 environment are clearly visible in our first half results. These fundamentals are
 expected to continue into the foreseeable future."
 
 LYONDELLBASELL BUSINESS RESULTS DISCUSSION BY REPORTING SEGMENT
 
 LyondellBasell operates in five business segments: 1) Olefins & Polyolefins -
 Americas; 2) Olefins & Polyolefins - Europe, Asia, International; 3)
 Intermediates & Derivatives; 4) Refining & Oxyfuels; and 5) Technology.
 
 Olefins & Polyolefins - Americas (O&P-Americas) - The primary products of this
 segment include ethylene and its co-products (propylene, butadiene and benzene),
 polyethylene, polypropylene and Catalloy process resins.

 (a)Operating income and EBITDA are calculated using the LIFO method of inventory accounting.See Table 8.
 
 Three months ended June 30, 2011 versus three months ended March 31, 2011 -
 O&P-Americas segment EBITDA increased $94 million versus the first quarter 2011.
 Olefins profitability improved approximately $130 million despite the
 approximately $75 million lost opportunity cost of the scheduled maintenance
 activity at one of our Channelview olefins plants and an approximately $25
 million weather related lost opportunity cost at our Morris, Ill. facility. An
 ethylene sales price increase of approximately 9 cents per pound was partially
 offset by an approximately 2 cents per pound increase in the company's average
 cost-of-ethylene-production metric. Higher monomer prices contributed to an
 approximately $50 million decline in polyethylene (PE) results as sales price
 increases lagged monomer price increases. Polypropylene (PP) profits for the
 second quarter 2011 increased approximately $10 million versus the first quarter
 2011. Total polyolefins sales volumes were relatively unchanged from the prior
 period.
 
 Olefins & Polyolefins - Europe, Asia, International (O&P-EAI) - The primary
 products of this segment include ethylene and its co-products (propylene and
 butadiene), polyethylene, polypropylene, global polypropylene compounds, Catalloy
 process resins and Polybutene-1 resins.

 Three months ended June 30, 2011 versus three months ended March 31, 2011 -
 O&P-EAI segment EBITDA increased $95 million versus the first quarter 2011 after
 excluding a second-quarter 2011 joint venture dividend decline of $91 million and
 approximately $60 million of accruals related to a proposed European staff
 reorganization and possible environmental remediation charges. Olefins results
 improved approximately $95 million from the first quarter 2011 due to
 significantly improved cracker and butadiene margins. Production volumes were
 relatively unchanged between the periods. Polyethylene results were approximately
 equal to the prior period while combined polypropylene and polypropylene
 compounds results improved approximately $10 million from the first quarter 2011.
 
 Intermediates & Derivatives (I&D) - The primary products of this segment include
 propylene oxide (PO) and its co-products (styrene monomer, tertiary butyl alcohol
 (TBA), isobutylene and tertiary butyl hydroperoxide), and derivatives (propylene
 glycol, propylene glycol ethers and butanediol); acetyls, and ethylene oxide and
 its derivatives.

 Three months ended June 30, 2011 versus three months ended March 31, 2011 - I&Dsegment EBITDA increased $44 million versus the first quarter 2011. Decreased
 sales volumes, as a result of the end of the aircraft deicer season, were
 primarily responsible for lower PO and PO derivatives results. Intermediates
 profitability increased versus the first quarter 2011 as increased acetyls and
 styrene margins and a $41 million gain on the sale of spent silver catalyst
 boosted results.
 
 Refining & Oxyfuels (R&O) - The primary products of this segment include
 gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil, jet fuel, petrochemical raw materials, methyl
 tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) and ethyl tertiary butyl ether (ETBE).

 Three months ended June 30, 2011 versus three months ended March 31, 2011 -
 Refining & Oxyfuels segment EBITDA increased $143 million versus the first
 quarter 2011. The Houston refinery financial performance improved approximately
 $135 million versus first quarter 2011. Crude oil throughput at the Houston
 refinery increased slightly to 263,000 barrels per day. Refining margins improved
 as the average industry benchmark margin increased approximately $2 per barrel
 during the quarter. Margins realized at the Houston refinery increased by more
 than the industry benchmark due to the purchase and processing of advantaged
 crudes and operating benefits stemming from the first-quarter completion of the
 fluid catalytic cracker turnaround. Absent from second quarter results is the $34
 million first-quarter Houston refinery insurance settlement. At the Berre
 refinery, results declined approximately $10 million from first quarter 2011 due
 to low naphtha prices relative to gasoline and additional crude costs related to
 the Libyan political situation. Throughput was reduced due to poor economics.
 Oxyfuels results improved approximately $50 million compared to the first quarter
 2011 due to seasonally higher volumes and margins.
 
 Technology Segment - The principal products of the Technology segment include
 polyolefin catalysts and production process technology licenses and related
 services.

 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
 The statements in this release and the related teleconference relating to matters
 that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. These
 forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions of management which are
 believed to be reasonable at the time made and are subject to significant risks
 and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially based on factors
 including, but not limited to, the business cyclicality of the chemical, polymers
 and refining industries; the availability, cost and price volatility of raw
 materials and utilities, particularly the cost of oil and natural gas;
 competitive product and pricing pressures; labor conditions; our ability to
 attract and retain key personnel; operating interruptions (including leaks,
 explosions, fires, weather-related incidents, mechanical failure, unscheduled
 downtime, supplier disruptions, labor shortages, strikes, work stoppages or other
 labor difficulties, transportation interruptions, spills and releases and other
 environmental risks); the supply/demand balances for our and our joint ventures'
 products, and the related effects of industry production capacities and operating
 rates; our ability to achieve expected cost savings and other synergies; legal
 and environmental proceedings; tax rulings, consequences or proceedings;
 technological developments, and our ability to develop new products and process
 technologies; current and potential governmental regulatory actions; political
 unrest and terrorist acts; risks and uncertainties posed by international
 operations, including foreign currency fluctuations; and our ability to comply
 with debt covenants and service our substantial debt. Additional factors that
 could cause results to differ materially from those described in the
 forward-looking statements can be found in the "Risk Factors" section of our Form
 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, which can be found at

 NON-GAAP MEASURES
 
 This release makes reference to certain "non-GAAP" financial measures as defined
 in Regulation G of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We
 report our financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
 accounting principles, but believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures
 provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying
 business trends and performance of the company's ongoing operations. These
 non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a
 substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures prepared in accordance
 with GAAP.
 
 We have included EBITDA in this press release, as we believe that EBITDA is a
 measure commonly used by investors. However, EBITDA, as presented herein, may not
 be comparable to a similarly titled measure reported by other companies due to
 differences in the way the measure is calculated. For purposes of this release
 and our other disclosures, EBITDA means earnings before interest, taxes,
 depreciation, amortization and restructuring costs, as adjusted for other items
 management does not believe are indicative of the Company's underlying results of
 operations, including but not limited to, impairment charges, reorganization
 items and the effect of mark-to-market accounting on our warrants, to the extent
 applicable as shown in Table 9 at the end of this release. EBITDA also includes
 dividends from joint ventures. EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to
 profit or operating profit for any period as an indicator of our performance, or
 as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure of our liquidity.
 
 Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest comparable GAAP
 financial measures are provided in the financial tables at the end of this
 release.
 
 OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURE PRESENTATION NOTES
 
 As a result of the Company's reorganization proceedings and its emergence from
 Chapter 11, financial results are prepared and disclosed for a predecessor
 company for the time period before May 1, 2010, and the successor company for
 time periods after April 30, 2010, the date of emergence. For financial
 accounting purposes, the predecessor and successor companies are considered to be
 two separate entities. As a result of the reorganization and application of
 fresh-start accounting, the results of operations of the predecessor and
 successor companies may not be comparable.
 
 This release contains time sensitive information that is accurate only as of the
 time hereof. Information contained in this release is unaudited and subject to
 change. LyondellBasell undertakes no obligation to update the information
 presented herein except to the extent required by law.
