1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
As of March 31, 2012, Apache’s significant accounting policies are consistent with those discussed in Note 1 of its consolidated financial statements contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates with regard to these financial statements include the fair value determination of acquired assets and liabilities, the estimate of proved oil and gas reserves and related present value estimates of future net cash flows therefrom, assessing asset retirement obligations, and the estimate of income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Oil and Gas Property
The Company follows the full-cost method of accounting for its oil and gas property. Under this method of accounting, all costs incurred for both successful and unsuccessful exploration and development activities, including salaries, benefits and other internal costs directly identified with these activities, and oil and gas property acquisitions are capitalized. The net book value of oil and gas properties, less related deferred income taxes, may not exceed a calculated “ceiling.” The ceiling limitation is the estimated after-tax future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves, discounted at 10 percent per annum and adjusted for cash flow hedges. Estimated future net cash flows are calculated using end-of-period costs and an unweighted arithmetic average of commodity prices in effect on the first day of each of the previous 12 months, held flat for the life of the production, except where prices are defined by contractual arrangements.
Any excess of the net book value of proved oil and gas properties, less related deferred income taxes, over the ceiling is charged to expense and reflected as “Additional depreciation, depletion and amortization” (DD&A) in the accompanying statement of consolidated operations. Such limitations are imposed separately on a country-by-country basis and are tested quarterly. For a discussion of the calculation of estimated future net cash flows, please refer to Note 14—Supplemental Oil and Gas Disclosures in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year. At March 31, 2012, the Company recorded a $521 million ($390 million net of tax) non-cash write-down of the carrying value of the Company’s Canadian proved oil and gas properties. Excluding the effects of cash flow hedges in calculating the ceiling limitation, the write-down as of March 31, 2012, would have been $656 million ($491 million net of tax).
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, which increases disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. New disclosures are required to enable users of financial statements to understand significant quantitative differences in balance sheets prepared under GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) related to the offsetting of financial instruments. The existing GAAP guidance allowing balance sheet offsetting, including industry-specific guidance, remains unchanged. The guidance in ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The disclosures should be applied retrospectively for all prior periods presented. The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to impact its consolidated financial statements.

2. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
2012 Activity
Cordillera Energy Partners
On April 30, 2012, Apache completed the acquisition of Cordillera Energy Partners III, LLC (Cordillera), a privately-held exploration and production company, in a stock and cash transaction. Cordillera’s properties include approximately 312,000 net acres in the Granite Wash, Tonkawa, Cleveland, and Marmaton plays in western Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle. The effective date of the transaction is September 1, 2011.
Apache issued 6,272,667 shares of common stock and paid approximately $2.5 billion of cash to the sellers as consideration for the transaction, subject to normal post-closing adjustments. Approximately $200 million was paid in January 2012 as a cash deposit, and the balance was paid upon closing with a portion of the proceeds from the Company’s April 2012 public note offering. For further discussion of this equity issuance, please see Note 9—Capital Stock of this Form 10-Q. For further discussion of the note offering, please see Note 6—Debt of this Form 10-Q.
Burrup Holdings Limited
On January 31, 2012, a subsidiary of Apache Energy Limited completed the acquisition of a 49-percent interest in Burrup Holdings Limited (BHL) for $439 million, including working capital adjustments. The transaction was funded with debt. BHL is the owner of an ammonia fertilizer plant on the Burrup Peninsula of Western Australia. Apache has supplied gas to the plant since operations commenced in 2006. Yara Australia Pty Ltd (Yara) owns the remaining 51 percent of BHL and will operate the plant. In addition, Apache also acquired an interest in a planned technical ammonia nitrate plant to be developed with Yara. The investment in BHL is accounted for under the equity method of accounting, with the balance recorded as a component of “Deferred charges and other” in Apache’s consolidated balance sheet and results of operations recorded as a component of “Other” under “Revenues and Other” in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations.
2011 Activity
Mobil North Sea Limited Acquisition
On December 30, 2011, Apache completed the acquisition of Mobil North Sea Limited (Mobil North Sea). The assets acquired include: operated interests in the Beryl, Nevis, Nevis South, Skene and Buckland fields; operated interest in the Beryl/Brae gas pipeline and the SAGE gas plant; non-operated interests in the Maclure, Scott and Telford fields; and Benbecula (west of Shetlands) exploration acreage. This acquisition was funded with existing cash on hand.
The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimates of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition. The final determination of fair value for certain assets and liabilities will be completed as soon as the information necessary to complete the analysis is obtained. These amounts will be finalized as soon as possible, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

3. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
Objectives and Strategies
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in crude oil and natural gas prices on the majority of its worldwide production. Management believes it is prudent to manage the variability in cash flows by occasionally entering into derivative instruments on a portion of its crude oil and natural gas production. The Company utilizes various types of derivative financial instruments, including swaps and options, to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from changes in commodity prices. Derivatives entered into are typically designated as cash flow hedges.
Counterparty Risk
The use of derivative instruments exposes the Company to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that a counterparty will be unable to meet its commitments. To reduce the concentration of exposure to any individual counterparty, Apache utilizes a diversified group of investment-grade rated counterparties, primarily financial institutions, for its derivative transactions. As of March 31, 2012, Apache had derivative positions with 18 counterparties. The Company monitors counterparty creditworthiness on an ongoing basis; however, it cannot predict sudden changes in counterparties’ creditworthiness. In addition, even if such changes are not sudden, the Company may be limited in its ability to mitigate an increase in counterparty credit risk. Should one of these counterparties not perform, Apache may not realize the benefit of some of its derivative instruments resulting from lower commodity prices.
The Company executes commodity derivative transactions under master agreements that have netting provisions that provide for offsetting payables against receivables. In general, if a party to a derivative transaction incurs a material deterioration in its credit ratings, as defined in the applicable agreement, the other party has the right to demand the posting of collateral, demand a transfer, or terminate the arrangement.

U.S. natural gas prices represent a weighted average of several contracts entered into on a per million British thermal units (MMBtu) basis and are settled primarily against NYMEX Henry Hub and various Inside FERC indices. The Canadian gas contracts are entered into on a per gigajoule (GJ) basis and are settled against AECO Index. The Canadian natural gas prices represent a weighted average of AECO Index prices and are shown in Canadian dollars. |
Fair Value Measurements
Apache’s commodity derivative instruments consist of variable-to-fixed price commodity swaps and options. The Company uses a market approach to estimate the fair values of its derivative instruments. A market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The Company’s derivatives are not actively quoted in the open market but are valued utilizing commodity futures price strips for the underlying commodities, which are provided by a reputable third party.
The following table presents the Company’s derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The Company’s debt is recorded at the carrying amount, net of unamortized discount, on its consolidated balance sheet. The carrying amount of the Company’s money market lines of credit and commercial paper approximates fair value because the interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates. Apache uses a market approach to determine the fair value of its notes and debentures using estimates provided by an independent investment financial data services firm (a Level 2 fair value measurement).
As of March 31, 2012, the Company had unsecured committed revolving syndicated bank credit facilities totaling $3.3 billion, of which $2.3 billion matures in May 2013 and $1.0 billion matures in August 2016. The facilities consist of a $1.5 billion facility, a $1.0 billion facility, and a $450 million facility in the U.S., a $200 million facility in Australia and a $150 million facility in Canada. As of March 31, 2012, available borrowing capacity under the Company’s credit facilities was $2.6 billion. The U.S. credit facilities are used to support Apache’s commercial paper program.
The Company has available a $2.95 billion commercial paper program, which generally enables Apache to borrow funds for up to 270 days at competitive interest rates. The commercial paper program is fully supported by available borrowing capacity under U.S. committed credit facilities, which expire in 2013 and 2016. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had $659 million in commercial paper outstanding, compared with no outstanding commercial paper as of December 31, 2011.
As of March 31, 2012, current debt included $29 million borrowed on uncommitted overdraft lines in Canada and Argentina and $400 million 6.25-percent notes due on April 15, 2012, which were repaid with April 2012 debt issuance proceeds. As of December 31, 2011, there was $31 million drawn on uncommitted overdraft lines in Argentina.
In April 2012 the Company issued $400 million principal amount of senior unsecured 1.75-percent notes maturing April 15, 2017, $1.1 billion principal amount of senior unsecured 3.25-percent notes maturing April 15, 2022, and $1.5 billion principal amount of senior unsecured 4.75-percent notes maturing April 15, 2043. The notes are redeemable, as a whole or in part, at Apache’s option, subject to a make-whole premium. The Company used the proceeds to fund the cash portion of the purchase price paid to acquire Cordillera, repay the $400 million 6.25-percent notes which matured on April 15, 2012, and for general corporate purposes.

7. INCOME TAXES
The Company estimates its annual effective income tax rate in recording its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Statutory tax rate changes and other significant or unusual items are recognized as discrete items in the quarter in which they occur. Accordingly, the Company recorded the income tax impact of a $521 million non-cash write-down of its Canadian proved oil and gas properties as a discrete item in the first quarter of 2012.
Apache and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income or capital taxes in various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s tax reserves are related to tax years that may be subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority. The Company is in Administrative Appeals with the United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regarding the 2004 through 2008 tax years and under audit for the 2009 and 2010 tax year. The Company is also under audit in various states and in most of the Company’s foreign jurisdictions as part of its normal course of business.
|

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters
Apache is party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, including litigation and governmental and regulatory controls. The Company has an accrued liability of approximately $22 million for all legal contingencies that are deemed to be probable of occurring and can be reasonably estimated. Apache’s estimates are based on information known about the matters and its experience in contesting, litigating, and settling similar matters. Although actual amounts could differ from management’s estimate, none of the actions are believed by management to involve future amounts that would be material to Apache’s financial position or results of operations after consideration of recorded accruals. It is management’s opinion that the loss for any other litigation matters and claims that are reasonably possible to occur will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Argentine Environmental Claims
As more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, in 2006 the Company acquired a subsidiary of Pioneer Natural Resources in Argentina (PNRA) that is involved in various administrative proceedings with environmental authorities in the Neuquén Province relating to permits for and discharges from operations in that province. In addition, PNRA was named in a suit initiated against oil companies operating in the Neuquén basin entitled Asociación de Superficiarios de la Patagonia v. YPF S.A., et. al., originally filed on August 21, 2003, in the Argentine National Supreme Court of Justice relating to various environmental and remediation claims. No material change in the status of these matters has occurred since the filing of Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year.
U.S. Royalty Litigation
As more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, two potential class action lawsuits are pending in respect of oil and gas royalties paid by the Company: Foster v. Apache Corporation, Civil Action No. CIV-10-0573-HE, in the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma, and Joyce Holder Trust v. Apache Corporation, Civil Action No. 4:11-cv-03872, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. No material change in the status of these matters has occurred since the filing of Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year.
Louisiana Restoration
As more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, numerous surface owners have filed claims or sent demand letters to various oil and gas companies, including Apache, claiming that, under either expressed or implied lease terms or Louisiana law, they are liable for damage measured by the cost of restoration of leased premises to their original condition as well as damages for contamination and cleanup. In the lawsuit filed on May 4, 2010, against Phoenix Exploration Company LP (Phoenix) captioned Belle Isle, L.L.C. v. Anadarko Petroleum Corporation et al., Docket No. 121742, in the District Court of St. Mary Parish, Louisiana, plaintiff’s experts have estimated the cost of remediation to be approximately $87 million, and plaintiffs claim additional damages for canal restoration, among other things, all of which is disputed by the Company. No other material change in the status of these matters has occurred since the filing of Apache’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year.
Hurricane-Related Litigation
As more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, on May 27, 2011, in the case styled Comer et al. v. Murphy Oil USA, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:11-cv-220 HS0-JMR, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, the District Court has granted defendants’ motion to dismiss plaintiffs’ claims, and plaintiffs have appealed the decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. No other material change in the status of this matter has occurred since the filing of Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year.
Australia Gas Pipeline Force Majeure
As more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, in 2008 Company subsidiaries reported a pipeline explosion that interrupted deliveries of natural gas in Australia to customers under various long-term contracts. No material change in the status of these matters has occurred since the filing of Apache’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year except as follows:
| • |
The prosecution notice that was filed on May 28, 2009, by the Department of Mines and Petroleum against Apache Northwest Pty Ltd and its co-licensees was dismissed by the Magistrates Court of Western Australia on March 29, 2012. |
| • |
The report prepared by the inspectors appointed by the government of Western Australia under the Petroleum Pipelines Act to coordinate the final stages of the investigation into the Varanus Island gas explosion, as described in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, has been provided by the government to Apache Northwest Pty Ltd for review prior to its publication. |
Breton Lawsuit
As more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, on October 4, 2011, plaintiffs filed suit in Breton Energy, L.L.C. et al. v. Mariner Energy Resources, Inc., et al., Case 4:11-cv-03561, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, seeking compensation from defendants for allegedly depriving plaintiffs, either negligently or intentionally, of rights to hydrocarbons in a reservoir described by plaintiffs as a common reservoir in West Cameron Blocks 171 and 172 offshore Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico. No material change in the status of this matter has occurred since the filing of Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year.
Escheat Audits
As more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, the State of Delaware, Department of Finance, Division of Revenue (Unclaimed Property), has notified numerous companies, including Apache Corporation, that the State intends to examine its books and records and those of its subsidiaries and related entities to determine compliance with the Delaware Escheat Laws. No material change in the status of this matter has occurred since the filing of Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year.
Burrup-Related Gas Supply Lawsuits
As more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, on May 19, 2011, a lawsuit captioned Oswal v. Apache Corporation, Cause No. 2011-30302, in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, was filed in which plaintiff Pankaj Oswal, in his personal capacity and as trustee for the Burrup Trust, asserts claims against the Company under the Australian Trade Practices Act. No material change in the status of this matter has occurred since the filing of Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year.
Also as more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, this lawsuit is one of a number of legal actions involving the Burrup Fertilisers Pty Ltd ammonia plant in Western Australia. In one of these legal actions—a case captioned Radhika Oswal v. Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ) et al., No. SCI 2011 4653, in the Supreme Court of Victoria—Oswal’s wife, Radhika Oswal, was granted leave on April 20, 2012, to join Apache Fertilisers Pty Ltd as a defendant.
Environmental Matters
As of March 31, 2012, the Company had an undiscounted reserve for environmental remediation of approximately $104 million. The Company is not aware of any environmental claims existing as of March 31, 2012, that have not been provided for or would otherwise have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. There can be no assurance, however, that current regulatory requirements will not change or past non-compliance with environmental laws will not be discovered on the Company’s properties.
As more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, Apache Canada Ltd. has asserted a claim against BP Canada arising out of the acquisition of certain Canadian properties under the parties’ Partnership Interest and Share Purchase and Sale Agreement dated July 20, 2010. No material change in the status of this matter has occurred since the filing of Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year.
As more fully described in Note 8 of the financial statements in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year, on May 25, 2011, a panel of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) published a report dated May 23, 2011, and titled “OCS G-2580, Vermilion Block 380 Platform A, Incidents of Noncompliance.” The report concerned the BOEM’s investigation of a fire on the Vermillion 380 A platform located in the Gulf of Mexico. At the time of the incident, Mariner operated the platform. A small amount of hydrocarbons spilled from the platform into the surrounding water as a result of the incident, and 13 workers were rescued and evacuated to safety after jumping into the water. The BOEM concluded in its investigation that the fire was caused by Mariner’s failure to adequately maintain or operate the platform’s heater-treater in a safe condition. The BOEM also identified other safety deficiencies on the platform. On December 27, 2011, the BOEM issued several Incidents of Non-Compliance, which may provide the basis for the assessment of civil penalties against Mariner. The Company has decided to contest several of the Incidents of Non-Compliance and filed a Notice of Appeal with the BOEM on April 24, 2012. Effective November 10, 2010, Mariner was acquired by Apache. No material change in the status of this matter has occurred since the filing of Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year.

The diluted earnings per share calculation excludes options and restricted stock units that were anti-dilutive totaling 2.9 million and 1.6 million for the quarters ending March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Issuance of Common and Preferred Shares
On April 30, 2012, in conjunction with Apache’s acquisition of Cordillera, the Company issued 6,272,667 shares of common stock to the sellers.
Common and Preferred Stock Dividends
During the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, Apache paid $58 million and $57 million, respectively, in dividends on its common stock. In the first quarters of 2012 and 2011, the Company also paid $19 million in dividends on its Series D Preferred Stock.
Conditional Restricted Stock Units
To provide long-term incentives for Apache employees to deliver competitive returns to the Company’s stockholders, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2012 Performance Program, pursuant to the 2011 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan. In January 2012 eligible employees received initial conditional restricted stock unit awards totaling 851,985 units. A total of 840,525 units were outstanding at March 31, 2012, from which a minimum of zero and a maximum of 2,101,313 units could be awarded. The ultimate number of shares awarded is based upon measurement of total shareholder return of Apache common stock as compared to a designated peer group during a three-year performance period. Should any restricted stock units be awarded at the end of the three-year performance period, 50 percent of restricted stock units awarded will immediately vest, and an additional 25 percent will vest on succeeding anniversaries of the end of the performance period.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates with regard to these financial statements include the fair value determination of acquired assets and liabilities, the estimate of proved oil and gas reserves and related present value estimates of future net cash flows therefrom, assessing asset retirement obligations, and the estimate of income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Oil and Gas Property
The Company follows the full-cost method of accounting for its oil and gas property. Under this method of accounting, all costs incurred for both successful and unsuccessful exploration and development activities, including salaries, benefits and other internal costs directly identified with these activities, and oil and gas property acquisitions are capitalized. The net book value of oil and gas properties, less related deferred income taxes, may not exceed a calculated “ceiling.” The ceiling limitation is the estimated after-tax future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves, discounted at 10 percent per annum and adjusted for cash flow hedges. Estimated future net cash flows are calculated using end-of-period costs and an unweighted arithmetic average of commodity prices in effect on the first day of each of the previous 12 months, held flat for the life of the production, except where prices are defined by contractual arrangements.
Any excess of the net book value of proved oil and gas properties, less related deferred income taxes, over the ceiling is charged to expense and reflected as “Additional depreciation, depletion and amortization” (DD&A) in the accompanying statement of consolidated operations. Such limitations are imposed separately on a country-by-country basis and are tested quarterly. For a discussion of the calculation of estimated future net cash flows, please refer to Note 14—Supplemental Oil and Gas Disclosures in Apache’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its 2011 fiscal year. At March 31, 2012, the Company recorded a $521 million ($390 million net of tax) non-cash write-down of the carrying value of the Company’s Canadian proved oil and gas properties. Excluding the effects of cash flow hedges in calculating the ceiling limitation, the write-down as of March 31, 2012, would have been $656 million ($491 million net of tax).
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, which increases disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. New disclosures are required to enable users of financial statements to understand significant quantitative differences in balance sheets prepared under GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) related to the offsetting of financial instruments. The existing GAAP guidance allowing balance sheet offsetting, including industry-specific guidance, remains unchanged. The guidance in ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The disclosures should be applied retrospectively for all prior periods presented. The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to impact its consolidated financial statements.
