HOUSTON, Sept. 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Apache Corporation (NYSE, Nasdaq: APA) today announced it has kicked off the 2016-2017 tree planting season by awarding a total of 280,000 trees as part of the annual Apache Tree Grant Program. This year the company is partnering with 24 nonprofits across three states including the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, the Black Bear Conservation Coalition, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The plantings will start this week and continue into May 2017. Apache's Tree Grant program has donated more than 4 million trees to nonprofits across 17 states since its launch in 2005.
Sowing seeds of ongoing support
The city of New Orleans' NOLA Tree Project has been awarded a donation of 2,400 trees which will be used for replanting efforts in Louisiana parishes impacted by recent flooding.
"Your support of the NOLA Tree Project will help substantially as they work to revitalize neighborhoods throughout Louisiana," said Mitchell Landrieu, mayor of the City of New Orleans. "Thank you for your commitment as an ongoing and dedicated partner for New Orleans. The people of New Orleans will never forget those who helped us when we needed it most."
Along 80-acres of what is called the "Milagro Tract," the Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge in Texas will plant 10,000 Apache-donated seedlings as part of the Refuge's Farmland Phase-out and Re-vegetation Program. The Milagro Tract is adjacent to the Refuge's Rio Reforestation site, which will celebrate its 25th anniversary in October. The Refuge expects more than 1,000 visitors to attend and help plant 31 acres of trees.
"The generous financial support we've received from Apache Corporation and others for purchase of native tree seedlings enables the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service to further leverage its ecosystem restoration capabilities within the Tamaulipan thornscrub habitats found only in southernmost counties of deep South Texas," said Bryan Winton, Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge manager. "Without these additional funds, our annual acreage and plant restoration/distribution goals would be next to impossible to achieve."
Much of the Lower Rio Grande area, about 12,750 acres, has been restored through the Refuge's Farmland Phase-out and Re-vegetation programs. Since 1989, the program has planted an estimated 6.5 million seedlings to reforest the habitat of many endangered species such as the ocelot and jaguarundi, making it the most successful and longest running reforestation project in the United States. This is the second year that Apache has supported the Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge's efforts.
The company continues ongoing donations to other organizations including the Black Bear Conservation Coalition (BBCC) and Texas Parks & Wildlife. Apache donated 250,000 native bottomland hardwood seedlings to BBCC to continue habitat restoration efforts for endangered black bears in Louisiana and Texas. The Texas Parks & Wildlife Department received 2,735 trees from Apache for plantings in 14 parks throughout the state. The parks received trees native to their areas.
Another 2016-2017 recipient of Apache-donated trees is the Lubbock Roots Historical Arts Council which promotes a greater understanding of the African American experience through the practice and appreciation of the visual and performing arts and through the study, interpretation and preservation of the history of the African American in the Early American West. The Council plans to use the tree donation to help beautify East Lubbock and promote economic development in the community. The revitalization effort will take an estimated three years to complete.
Company leaves legacy of trees
"Now in its 11th year, our tree program has been a great way for our employees to volunteer in their communities and for the company to make a lasting contribution," said Apache CEO and President John J. Christmann IV.
A cornerstone of the company's community outreach and giving efforts, the tree program was extended to employees in 2012 with the formation of The Trees for Tots program. The program donates a tree to honor each child born to or adopted by an Apache employee from January to December of the previous year. More than 100 trees have been planted in honor of children of Apache employees to date.

HOUSTON, Sept. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- On Sept. 7, Apache Corp. (NYSE: APA) announced its discovery of a significant new resource play which it calls the Alpine High, located in the southern portion of the Delaware Basin, primarily in Reeves County, Texas.
Apache said it has identified some 3,000 future drilling locations in the Barnett and Woodford shale formations alone. Hydrocarbons in place include an estimated 75 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of rich gas and 3 billion barrels (Bbbl) of oil, according to the company. Apache also reported significant oil potential in the shallower Pennsylvanian, Bone Spring and Wolfcamp formations. Alpine High has some 5,000 ft of stacked pay in up to five distinct formations.
"We are incredibly excited about the Alpine High play and its large inventory of repeatable, high-value drilling opportunities," John J. Christmann IV, Apache's CEO and president, said in a statement. "We have thousands of low-risk locations in the Woodford and Barnett formations alone, and we are looking forward to further delineating what we believe will be a significant number of oil-prone locations in the Pennsylvanian, Wolfcamp and Bone Springs."
Christmann is set to discuss Apache's plans for the discovery during a keynote address entitled 'Alpine High & Permian-Wide' at 1:15 p.m. Tuesday, November 8, during Hart Energy's 2016 Executive Oil Conference. The conference and exhibition, scheduled November 7-8 in Midland, TX at the Midland County Horseshoe Pavilion, attracts top executives and decision makers from the region's most-active exploration and production companies for world-class conference sessions about effective strategies, trends and technologies that will increase operational efficiency.

HOUSTON, Sept. 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Apache Corporation (NYSE, Nasdaq: APA) today announced that after more than two years of extensive geologic and geophysical work, methodical acreage accumulation, and strategic testing and delineation drilling, the company can confirm the discovery of a significant new resource play, the "Alpine High." Apache's Alpine High acreage lies in the southern portion of the Delaware Basin, primarily in Reeves County, Texas. The company estimates hydrocarbons in place on its acreage position are 75 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of rich gas (more than 1,300 British Thermal Units) and 3 billion barrels of oil in the Barnett and Woodford formations alone. Apache also sees significant oil potential in the shallower Pennsylvanian, Bone Springs and Wolfcamp formations.
Key highlights of the discovery:
"Today's announcement is the culmination of more than two years of hard work by the Apache team. While other companies have focused on acquisitions during the downturn, we took a contrarian approach and focused on organic growth opportunities. These efforts have resulted in the identification of an immense resource that we believe will deliver significant value for our shareholders for many years," said John J. Christmann IV, Apache's chief executive officer and president. "We are incredibly excited about the Alpine High play and its large inventory of repeatable, high-value drilling opportunities. We have thousands of low-risk locations in the Woodford and Barnett formations alone, and we are looking forward to further delineating what we believe will be a significant number of oil-prone locations in the Pennsylvanian, Wolfcamp and Bone Springs."
In addition to providing details on Apache's Alpine High discovery, the company is also providing an update today on its Midland Basin and other Delaware Basin assets, including strong comparative well results and future drilling locations. This update can be found in the slide deck associated with today's Barclay's 2016 CEO Energy-Power Conference presentation, which is posted on the company's website at www.apachecorp.com and investor.apachecorp.com.
"Our announcement today represents a significant addition to our already deep and highly economic Permian Basin position. With the contribution of Alpine High to our global portfolio of world-class international and North American assets, Apache clearly has more profitable-growth opportunities than at any other time in the company's 60-year history," Christmann concluded.
2016 capital guidance update
To accelerate the delineation and development of the Alpine High play, Apache is increasing its 2016 capital spending by approximately $200 million for the year and raising its full-year capital guidance to approximately $2 billion. Capital spending on the Alpine High play in 2016 will represent more than 25 percent of Apache's total capital spending program.
Barclay's presentation
Apache CEO and President John J. Christmann IV will present today, Sept. 7, 2016, at 6:45 a.m. Central time at the Barclay's 2016 CEO Energy-Power Conference. The presentation and live webcast will be available on Apache's website at www.apachecorp.com and investor.apachecorp.com, and the webcast replay will be archived there as well.

Forward-looking statements
This news release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "seeks," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "guidance," and similar references to future periods.

While forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, whether actual results and developments will meet our expectations and predictions depend on a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause our actual results, performance, and financial condition to differ materially from our expectations. See "Risk Factors" in our 2015 Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a discussion of risk factors that affect our business.

Cautionary note to investors
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable, and possible reserves that meet the SEC's definitions for such terms. Apache may use certain terms in this earnings release, such as "resources," "potential resources," "resource potential," "estimated net reserves," "recoverable reserves," and other similar terms that the SEC guidelines strictly prohibit Apache from including in filings with the SEC. Such terms do not take into account the certainty of resource recovery, which is contingent on exploration success, technical improvements in drilling access, commerciality and other factors, and are therefore not indicative of expected future resource recovery and should not be relied upon. Investors are urged to consider carefully the disclosure in Apache's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2015, available from Apache at www.apachecorp.com or by writing Apache at: 2000 Post Oak Blvd., Suite 100, Houston, TX 77056 (Attn: Corporate Secretary).

HOUSTON, Aug. 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Apache Corporation (NYSE, Nasdaq: APA) today announced that during the second quarter of 2016, the company changed its method of accounting for oil and gas exploration and development activities from the full-cost to the successful-efforts method.
Second-quarter 2016 results, which will be released Aug. 4, 2016, will reflect this change. The company will provide additional information related to its conversion to successful efforts in its earnings supplement, including a reconciliation of second-quarter 2016 results of operations under successful efforts to full cost.
In addition to filing its second-quarter 10-Q, Apache will file Form 8-Ks after the close of business on August 4, 2016, that include certain financial information from Apache's 2015 Form 10-K and first-quarter 2016 Form 10-Q revised to reflect the retrospective application of the successful-efforts method. These filings will include reconciliations of financial statements under successful efforts to full cost for all periods presented.
"We believe the conversion to the successful-efforts method of accounting will benefit Apache and its stakeholders," said Steve Riney, executive vice president and chief financial officer. "This method is more commonly used by our peer group and will, therefore, improve the comparability of Apache's financial results. It will also provide management with greater transparency to the financial performance of the company, enabling us to improve capital allocation and operational decision-making going forward."

HOUSTON, May 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Apache Corporation (NYSE, Nasdaq: APA) today announced its financial and operational results for the first quarter of 2016.
Apache reported a net loss of $489 million, or $1.29 per diluted common share, which included noncash, after-tax ceiling test write-downs of $325 million driven primarily by low commodity prices. When adjusted for these and certain additional items that impact the comparability of results, Apache's first-quarter net loss totaled $152 million, or $0.40 per share. Net cash provided by continuing operating activities was approximately $276 million. Cash flow from continuing operations, before changes in operating assets and liabilities, was $435 million, and adjusted EBITDA was $541 million.
John J. Christmann IV, Apache's chief executive officer and president, said, "Apache's first-quarter performance was characterized by notable achievements in operations, drilling and further cost reductions. Despite a continued decline in our drilling activities, we delivered strong production results in North America Onshore. Results in the Permian Basin were particularly strong with solid performance from our base production and very good results from maintenance projects and new drilling. Our relentless focus on costs continues to yield significant results. In our North American Onshore key plays, drilling and completion costs are now down approximately 45 percent from 2014 levels.
"Our substantial well-cost reductions, coupled with the recent improvement in oil prices, have created a better investment environment. As we become more confident in the sustainability of higher oil prices and the resulting increase in cash flow relative to our $35-per-barrel plan, we will increase our capital investment program accordingly. The majority of any additional investment would most likely go to the Permian Basin."
First-quarter operational highlights
During the first quarter, Apache averaged 24 operated rigs and drilled and completed 79 gross-operated wells worldwide. Highlights from Apache's three principal areas include:
2016 outlook
Following strong first-quarter results, the company is raising full-year 2016 North American Onshore production guidance to 268,000 to 278,000 Boe per day, up from initial guidance of 263,000 to 273,000 Boe per day set at the beginning of the year. Accordingly, Apache is also raising full-year 2016 total pro forma production guidance (excluding Egypt noncontrolling interest and tax barrels) by 5,000 Boe per day to 438,000 to 458,000 Boe per day.
Total capital investment during the quarter, excluding Egypt noncontrolling interest, was $466 million, which was below the company's guidance of $500 to $550 million. Apache is reiterating full-year 2016 capital guidance of $1.4 billion to $1.8 billion.
As expected, the company ran a cash-flow deficit for the first quarter but anticipates a cash-flow surplus for the balance of the year. The company remains committed to cash-flow neutrality and ending the year with unchanged or lower net debt.
"Apache's prudent approach during this downturn has allowed us to protect our financial position, maintain appropriate debt levels, preserve our investment-grade credit rating, continue our dividend and refrain from issuing equity, which dilutes existing shareholders. Looking ahead, we will be patient, thoughtful and disciplined with regard to deploying incremental capital such that we continue to maximize full-cycle returns. Longer term, we have the financial capacity, high-quality drilling inventory and organizational infrastructure to deliver competitive growth rates and returns through the cycle," concluded Christmann.

Non-GAAP financial measures
Apache's financial information includes information prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting standards (GAAP) as well as non-GAAP information. It is management's intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to enhance understanding of our consolidated financial information as prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted earnings, adjusted EBITDA, net debt, and cash flow from continuing operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities are non-GAAP measures. This non-GAAP information should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Each non-GAAP financial measure is presented along with the corresponding GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure.
Forward-looking statements
This news release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "seeks," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "guidance," and similar references to future periods. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements about future plans, expectations and objectives for Apache's operations, including statements about our capital plans, drilling plans, production expectations, asset sales, and monetizations. While forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, whether actual results and developments will meet our expectations and predictions depend on a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause our actual results, performance, and financial condition to differ materially from our expectations. See "Risk Factors" in our 2015 Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a discussion of risk factors that affect our business. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this news release speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future development or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
Cautionary note to investors
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable, and possible reserves that meet the SEC's definitions for such terms. Apache may use certain terms in this earnings release, such as "resources," "potential resources," "resource potential," "estimated net reserves," "recoverable reserves," and other similar terms that the SEC guidelines strictly prohibit Apache from including in filings with the SEC. Such terms do not take into account the certainty of resource recovery, which is contingent on exploration success, technical improvements in drilling access, commerciality and other factors, and are therefore not indicative of expected future resource recovery and should not be relied upon. Investors are urged to consider carefully the disclosure in Apache's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2015, available from Apache at www.apachecorp.com or by writing Apache at: 2000 Post Oak Blvd., Suite 100, Houston, TX 77056 (Attn: Corporate Secretary). You can also obtain this report from the SEC by calling 1-800-SEC-0330 or from the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

MIDLAND, Texas, April 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Two Texas-based energy companies and a third from Oklahoma are moving forward with their state district court lawsuit against Houston-based Apache Corp. (NYSE: APA). As described by Apache in its SEC filings, the case involves potential damages of more than $1.1 billion relating to certain purchase and sale agreements, mineral leases, and mutual interest agreements concerning properties located in the Texas counties of Hartley, Moore, Potter and Oldham.
Noted Texas attorneys Zona Jones and Michael Havard of Provost Umphrey Law Firm; Louis K. Bonham of Osha Liang LLP; and Patrick Zummo of the Law Offices of Patrick Zummo recently joined the legal team representing the three companies. Accomplished lawyers David Lauritzen, Bradley Bains and Joe Baker of Cotton Bledsoe Tighe & Dawson, PC, filed the original lawsuit and will continue to represent the same companies.
The dispute centers on contracts Apache signed in 2011 with Texas-based Apollo Exploration LLC and Oklahoma's Cogent Exploration Ltd. Co. and SellmoCo LLC covering a series of oil and gas leases in the Texas Panhandle. Under the contracts, the three companies were entitled to reclaim up to one-third of the interests they sold to Apache. However, the oil and gas companies say Apache never provided the required documents for 2012 and 2013.
The plaintiffs are asking the court to order Apache to provide a proper accounting of the drilling and payout records associated with their contracts since they say Apache has failed to provide proper documentation from the start.
In addition to the requested accounting and the allegations of breach of contract and fraud, the lawsuit also includes claims against Apache for breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, gross negligence and conversion, among others. The case is Apollo Exploration LLC, et al. v. Apache Corp., No. CV-50538, in the 385th District Court in Midland.
