APA Corporation Announces 2023 ESG Goals

HOUSTON, March 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- APA Corporation (Nasdaq: APA) today announced the company’s 2023 short- and long-term environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals, which include performance metrics tied directly to employee incentive compensation. These goals significantly advance and expand upon the company’s prior ESG efforts and accomplishments in the areas of workforce safety and environmental stewardship.

“Our ESG goals are ambitious and underpin a strategy to concentrate efforts around the areas where we can have the most beneficial and direct impact: air, water, and communities and people,” said John J. Christmann IV, APA’s CEO and president. “As we rise to the challenge of providing affordable and reliable products to meet the world’s energy demand, APA will strive to always do so in a safe, responsible and sustainable manner.”

Short-Term Incentive Compensation Goals for Year-End 2023

Safety

  • Maintain the momentum of APA’s excellent 2022 safety performance: Achieve a Severe Incident Rate at or below 0.028.
  • Encourage employees and contractors to proactively identify at-risk conditions and behaviors across operations: Increase the safety observation rate and actions by 10%.

Air

  • Reduce methane emissions in U.S. onshore operations by converting more than 2,000 pneumatic devices to instrument air or through valve retrofit.

Water

  • Utilize at least 50% recycled, produced water for completions in U.S. onshore operations.

Long-Term Goals

  • Reduce Scope 1 greenhouse gases (GHG) intensity by 10-15% by 2030, with a near-term compensation-linked milestone to reduce at least 5% by 2025.
  • Accelerate the reclamation of more than 150 plugged and abandoned (P&A) sites in U.S. onshore operations by year-end 2025.

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.
