In the U.S., our operations are primarily located in the Permian Basin. We also have operations in the Gulf of America, where we are focused primarily on asset retirement activities.

APA's sustainability approach and performance are available in two main documents: Our Approach to Sustainability and our annual Sustainability Progress Report. Our Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) Analysis is available here.

This document, Our Approach to Sustainability, details our ongoing sustainability programs and initiatives, including our sustainability philosophy and management in the areas of environmental stewardship, communities and people, and governance - in particular, air and water, health and safety, and employee and community involvement. We will review the content of this document annually to verify that all the information included remains correct and up to date. This document should be read in tandem with our annual Sustainability Progress Report, which provides yearly highlights and key performance data.

Our sustainability reporting is prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative Sustainability Reporting Standards at the core level. We also consult the Oil and Gas Industry Guidance on Voluntary Sustainability Reporting developed by Ipieca (the global oil and gas industry association for environmental and social issues), the American Petroleum Institute and the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers (IOGP); the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board's Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Sustainability Accounting Standard and the TCFD framework. (See the Reporting Standards and Frameworks Index on our website for more information.)

Assuring reported content

At APA, we hold ourselves to a high standard of accuracy and excellence in our activities, including the content of our sustainability publications. All sustainability publications were developed by a cross-functional team of subject-matter experts throughout the company and reviewed by the board's Corporate Responsibility, Governance, and Nominating Committee, the executive leadership team and our Internal Audit function (described on p. 51). We undertook a rigorous internal review including internally verifying data points and facts, which provides added accountability for the accuracy of the reports' content.

(Seep. 58 for a more detailed description of our "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Risk.")
