Apache Reports Record Earnings and Production for 2010

Annual production increased 13 percent, averaging 658,000 BOE per day
Earnings of $3.0 billion or $8.46 per diluted share
Cash flow nearly $7.4 billion

HOUSTON, Feb. 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Apache Corporation (NYSE, Nasdaq: APA) today reported that production set a new annual record, averaging nearly 658,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day for the 12-month period ending Dec. 31, 2010, up 13 percent from the prior year. Liquids production increased 18 percent, and this, combined with higher oil prices, drove Apache to record earnings of $3.0 billion for 2010. �

"The results for 2010 were outstanding, and the possibilities for future profitable growth are numerous and encouraging. Apache's accomplishments this past year and past quarter reflect the company's operating and financial discipline, with our relentless focus on rate of return, cash generation, and operating and cost oversight. This enables us to optimize existing assets and execute on major transactions, whether they be deliberate or opportunistic. During the year we expanded our global portfolio with acquisitions in the Permian Basin, Canada, the Gulf of Mexico, and Egypt," said G. Steven Farris, Apache's chairman and chief executive officer.

Highlights during 2010 include:

25 percent reserve growth, replacing 344 percent of production; 102 percent through drilling
Record annual production for North America and international
Most active acquisition year in Apache's history with over $11 billion in transactions
Van Gogh and Pyrenees, two oil fields offshore Western Australia, commenced production in February 2010, reaching payout by October and December, respectively
Purchased 51 percent equity interest in the proposed Kitimat LNG Terminal
Established new regions in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, Gulf Onshore and Permian Basin, and expanded in Egypt, Canada, and the Gulf of Mexico Shelf.

"In 2011 we will realize a full 12 months of ownership from these newly acquired assets, as well as development and production from our legacy asset base. � We also have a number of longer-term growth projects in the pipeline, including LNG developments at Kitimat (Canada) and Wheatstone (Australia) and new exploration ventures in more frontier hydrocarbon basins," he said.

"Apache's diverse asset mix, which balances oil and gas properties in North American and international basins, helped to deliver record results despite low natural gas prices. � This is a testament to the effectiveness of Apache's balanced portfolio model," Farris said.

In early 2011 political changes swept through Egypt, with many issues remaining unresolved. � Apache's Egyptian operations are located in remote areas of the country, and these events did not disrupt the company's oil and gas production. � Apache believes that Egypt will continue to foster an environment that values foreign investment and the development of its ample resource base, and wishes the best for the people of Egypt during this time of transition.

Full-year and fourth-quarter 2010 financial results

For the year ended Dec. 31, 2010, Apache reported net income of $3.0 billion, or $8.46 per diluted common share, compared to a net loss of $292 million, or 87 cents per share in 2009. � The prior year included a $1.98 billion, non-cash, after-tax write-down that was a result of lower commodity prices during the first quarter 2009.

Excluding certain items that management believes affect the comparability of operating results, Apache reported adjusted earnings* of $3.2 billion in 2010, a 68 percent increase compared with 2009 adjusted earnings of $1.9 billion.� On a per share basis, adjusted net earnings were $8.94 for 2010, compared with $5.59 per share in the prior year. Cash flow from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities* for 2010 was nearly $7.4 billion, the second-best in Apache's history, and up from $5 billion in 2009.

Apache's 2010 fourth-quarter earnings increased to $670 million, or $1.77 per share, up from $582 million, or $1.72 per share, for the same period in the prior year. Fourth-quarter 2010 adjusted earnings increased 25 percent to $830 million.� On a per share basis, 2010 adjusted net earnings were $2.19, up from $1.96 reported for fourth-quarter 2009.�

Full-year and fourth-quarter 2010 operating highlights

Apache ended 2010 with proved reserves of 2.95 billion barrels of oil equivalent. Apache's 2010 production was 240 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMboe). The company added 827 MMboe or 344 percent of production, through discoveries, extensions and acquisitions. Approximately 245 MMboe, or 102 percent of 2010 production, in reserve additions came through drilling. Apache spent $15.8 billion on exploration, development and acquisitions capital, excluding asset retirement obligations and capitalized interest.*

In 2010, Apache's international production increased 14 percent. In Australia, production climbed 96 percent with significant contributions from the start-up of the Pyrenees and Van Gogh fields. Net production in Egypt increased 6 percent, with the completion of expansion projects at our Kalabasha oil facilities.

Apache's North American production increased 11 percent in 2010, lifted in part by contributions from newly acquired fields in Canada, the Permian Basin, and Gulf of Mexico.

Globally, fourth-quarter 2010 production increased 24 percent from the prior-year period to average 729,000 boe per day.

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.
