In 2025, as a result of a softer oil price outlook, APA plans to reduce capital to $2.5 to $2.6 billion, of which, $200 million is allocated to Suriname development activity and $100 million to other exploration, primarily in Alaska.
At this investment level, the company expects to run an eight-rig program in the Permian Basin and a 12-rig program in Egypt, which includes one rig dedicated to natural gas following the signing of a new gas pricing agreement.
The company expects this program will roughly sustain adjusted oil production in the U.S. and Egypt, while delivering mid-single digit adjusted BOE growth.
