Forward guidance

The company expects total fourth-quarter production on a BOE basis will be the highest of the year despite ongoing curtailments in the Permian Basin in response to weak regional natural gas prices. APA’s upstream capital investment in the fourth quarter is expected to be approximately $645 million, which includes $80 million of incremental capital for Suriname, Alaska and Egypt.
