Apache's 14% Production Growth Lifts Earnings 50% to Record $4.5 Billion in 2011

HOUSTON, Feb. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Apache Corporation
today reported that record production and strong oil prices combined to generate record full-year 2011 earnings of $4.5 billion or $11.47 per diluted common share, up 50 percent from $3 billion or $8.46 per share in 2010.Production increased 14 percent to 748,000 barrels of oil equivalent (boe) per day. Cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities* rose 39 percent to $10.2 billion. Excluding certain items that management believes affect the comparability of operating results, Apache reported adjusted earnings* of $4.7 billion or $11.83 per share, up from $3.2 billion or $8.94 per share in 2010.
'Apache's balanced portfolio and returns focus fueled an outstanding year in 2011, setting records for production, earnings, revenues, proved reserves and cash flow,' said G. Steven Farris, chairman and chief executive officer.
In the fourth quarter, earnings totaled $1.2 billion or $2.98 per diluted share, up from $670 million or $1.77 per share in the prior-year period. Production totaled 759,000 boe per day, up 4 percent from the year-earlier quarter, and cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities* totaled $2.7 billion, up from $2 billion in the year-earlier period. Apache reported fourth-quarter adjusted earnings* of $1.2 billion or $2.94 per share.
Apache's oil and natural gas liquids production was 50 percent of total volume in 2011 but contributed nearly 80 percent of revenues because of the wide gap between global crude oil and North American natural gas prices. Apache's results also benefited from the price differentials between oil prices in basins linked to the West Texas Intermediate benchmark and higher prices for oil produced in the Gulf of Mexico, Egypt, Australia and the North Sea that represents approximately 76 percent of its crude production.
Apache ended 2011 with proved reserves of 3 billion boe, up 1 percent from 2010. Apache's 2011 production was 273 million boe (MMboe). The company added 422 MMboe, or 155 percent of production, through extensions, discoveries and acquisitions. Divestitures and revisions totaled 113 MMboe. Apache spent $9.1 billion on exploration, development and acquisitions capital, excluding asset retirement obligations and capitalized interest.*
During 2011, with the continued downward pressure on North American natural gas prices, Apache transitioned its North American drilling program to oily and liquids-rich targets in the Permian and Anadarko basins, the Gulf of Mexico and Canada.
Apache also sanctioned several long-lead-time projects in Australia that are expected to contribute to future growth, including the Julimar/Wheatstone LNG project and the Macedon, Coniston and Balnaves developments. The company also sanctioned development of the Anadarko Petroleum-operated Lucius unit, a world-class discovery in the Keathley Canyon area of the deepwater Gulf of Mexico.
Additional drilling is planned in 2012 in the North Sea, where Apache completed its acquisition of Mobil North Sea Limited, including the operated Beryl, Nevis, Ness, Nevis South, Skene and Buckland fields. First production from the Bacchus development near the Forties Field is planned in March.
Apache plans to spend $9.5 billion of drilling capital in 2012, up from $8 billion in 2011, Farris said. 'We will live within our cash flow, and we will review capital allocations quarterly.
'We are planning to drill up to 20-30 percent more wells in 2012 than in 2011, when we drilled approximately 1,100 gross wells,' he said. 'More than half of the wells planned in 2012 will be drilled in the Permian and Anadarko Basins to exploit stacked oil and liquids-rich pay opportunities in these prolific basins.'
Apache also plans active exploratory drilling programs in Australia, the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, Egypt, Alaska, Kenya and New Zealand.
'We are in a good position to deliver profitable growth in 2012 and future years,' Farris said. 'Based on our current capital program, we anticipate production will increase in the range of 7-13 percent in 2012.'
Apache recently announced that it has increased the regular quarterly cash dividend on the company's common shares by 13 percent to 17 cents per share. 'With our balanced portfolio and deep inventory of drilling locations and development projects, we have confidence in Apache's future,' Farris said.
NOTE: Apache will conduct a conference call to discuss its fourth-quarter and full-year 2011 results at 1 p.m. Central time on Thursday, Feb. 16. The conference call will be webcast from Apache's website, www.apachecorp.com. The webcast replay will be archived on Apache's website. The conference call will be available for delayed playback by telephone for one week beginning at approximately 4 p.m. on Feb. 16.

Reconciliation of income attributable to common stock to
adjusted earnings:
--------------------------------------------------------
The press release discusses Apache's adjusted earnings. Adjusted earnings exclude certain items that
management believes affect the comparability of operating results and are meaningful for the following
reasons:
--Management uses adjusted earnings to evaluate the company's operational trends and performance
relative to other oil and gas producing companies.
--Management believes this presentation may be useful to investors who follow the practice of some
industry analysts who adjust reported company earnings for items that may obscure underlying
fundamentals and trends.
--The reconciling items below are the types of items management believes are frequently excluded by
analysts when evaluating the operating trends and comparability of the company's results.

Reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to cash from operations before changes in
operating assets and liabilities:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The press release discusses Apache's cash from operations before changes in operating assets and
liabilities. It is presented because management believes the information is useful for investors
because it is used internally and widely accepted by those following the oil and gas industry as a
financial indicator of a company's ability to generate cash to internally fund exploration and
development activities, fund dividend programs, and service debt. It is also used by research analysts
to value and compare oil and gas exploration and production companies, and is frequently included in
published research when providing investment recommendations. Cash from operations before changes in
operating assets and liabilities, therefore, is an additional measure of liquidity, but is not a measure
of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from
operating, investing, or financing activities.
The following table reconciles net cash provided by operating activities to cash from operations before
changes in operating assets and liabilities.
