APACHE OFFSHORE INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Apache
Offshore Investment Partnership (the Partnership), without audit, pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for
a fair statement of the results for the interim periods, on a basis consistent
with the annual audited financial statements. All such adjustments are of a
normal, recurring nature. Certain information, accounting policies, and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Partnership believes that
the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the summary of significant accounting policies and notes thereto
included in the Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-K.
1. PAYABLE TO/RECEIVABLE FROM APACHE
Payable to/receivable from Apache Corporation, the Partnership's managing
partner (Apache or the Managing Partner), represents the net result of the
Investing Partners' revenue and expenditure transactions in the current month.
Generally, cash in this amount will be transferred to/from Apache in the month
after the Partnership's transactions are processed and the net results of
operations are determined.
2. RIGHT OF PRESENTMENT
In February 1994, an amendment to the Partnership Agreement created a
right of presentment under which all Investing Partners have a limited and
voluntary right to offer their Units to the Partnership twice each year to be
purchased for cash. The first right of presentment offer for 1998 was based
upon a valuation date of December 31, 1997 for a purchase price of $11,161 per
Unit, plus interest to the date of payment. The offer was made to the Investing
Partners on April 28, 1998 and, as a result, the Partnership acquired 29.832
Units for $348,000 in cash. A second right of presentment offer of $9,824 per
Unit, plus interest to the date of payment, was made to the Investing Partners
on October 30, 1998, based on a valuation date of June 30, 1998.
The Partnership is not in a position to predict how many Units will be
presented for repurchase during the fourth quarter of 1998 and cannot, at this
time, determine if the Partnership will have sufficient funds available to
repurchase Units. The Partnership has no obligation to purchase any Units
presented to the extent it determines that it has insufficient funds for such
purchases. The Partnership Agreement, as amended (the Amended Partnership
Agreement), contains limitations on the number of Units that the Partnership
can repurchase, including a limit of 10 percent of the outstanding Units on an
annual basis.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET INCOME AND REVENUE
The Partnership reported net income of $.6 million in the third quarter of
1998, versus $2.0 million in the prior year period. Net income per Investing
Partner Unit decreased 72 percent, from $1,268 per Unit to $352 per Unit. The
decrease was primarily attributable to lower natural gas and crude oil
production and prices and higher lease operating expense (LOE).
For the first nine months of 1998, net income of $2.9 million, or $1,737
per Investing Partner Unit, decreased 55 percent and 58 percent, respectively,
from $6.4 million, or $4,090 per Investing Partner Unit, in the same period
last year. Lower natural gas and crude oil production and prices and higher LOE
impacted 1998 results.
Revenues decreased 40 percent, from $2.9 million in the third quarter of
1997 to $1.7 million for the same period in 1998. Natural gas and crude oil
sales contributed 80 percent and 19 percent, respectively, to the Partnership's
total revenues in the third quarter of 1998. For the first nine months of 1998,
revenues decreased 34 percent to $6.1 million compared to $9.3 million for the
same period in 1997, primarily due to lower production, with natural gas and
crude oil contributing 81 percent and 18 percent, respectively, to the
Partnership's total revenues in 1998.
The Partnership's oil and gas production volume and price information is
summarized in the following table (gas volumes presented in thousand cubic feet
(Mcf) per day):
FOR THE QUARTER ENDED FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, SEPTEMBER 30,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1998 1997 DECREASE 1998 199 DECREASE
---------- ---------- --------- ---------- ---------- ------------
Gas volume - Mcf per day 7,857 10,726 (27%) 8,622 11,172 (23%)
Average gas price - per Mcf $ 1.91 $ 2.25 (15%) $ 2.11 $ 2.39 (12%)
Oil volume - barrels per day 287 313 (8%) 305 349 (13%)
Average oil price - per barrel $ 12.60 $ 18.43 (32%) $ 13.10 $ 19.53 (33%)
THIRD QUARTER 1998 COMPARED TO THIRD QUARTER 1997
Natural gas sales revenues for the third quarter of 1998 totaled $1.4
million, 38 percent lower than the third quarter of 1997. The decrease resulted
from a 27 percent decline in natural gas production. Production volumes
decreased as a result of natural declines in production, the sale of High
Island Block A-6 (Glenda Prospect) in October 1997, and the sale of West
Cameron Block 368 (Krypton Prospect) in January 1998. Natural gas prices
decreased 15 percent for the third quarter of 1998 compared to the same period
in 1997, which negatively impacted revenue by $.3 million.
The Partnership's crude oil sales revenues for the third quarter of 1998
totaled $.3 million, a 37 percent decrease from the third quarter of 1997. A 32
percent decrease in the average realized oil price led to the decline.
5
7
YEAR-TO-DATE 1998 COMPARED TO YEAR-TO-DATE 1997
Natural gas sales for the first nine months of 1998 of $5.0 million
decreased $2.3 million, or 32 percent, when compared to the same period in
1997. Average realized gas prices decreased $.28 per Mcf, or 12 percent, when
compared with the first nine months of 1997. Natural gas production for the
first nine months of 1998 decreased by 23 percent when compared to the same
period in 1997, negatively impacting revenues by $1.5 million. Production
decreases in 1998 were primarily due to natural declines in production and the
sale of High Island Block A-6 and West Cameron Block 368.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, oil sales decreased 41
percent to $1.1 million when compared to the same period last year. The
Partnership's oil sales revenues were negatively impacted by a 13 percent
decline in oil production and a 33 percent decrease in realized prices. The
decrease in production volumes resulted from natural declines in production.
OPERATING EXPENSES
The Partnership's depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) rate,
expressed as a percentage of oil and gas production revenues, was approximately
36 percent and 34 percent during the third quarter and first nine months of
1998, increasing from 25 percent and 24 percent, respectively, during the same
periods in 1997. The increase in the DD&A rate was a result of generally
declining natural gas and crude oil prices and downward reserve revisions
recorded in the fourth quarter of 1997.
Higher workover activity in the third quarter of 1998 caused LOE to be 358
percent higher when compared to the third quarter of 1997. For the first nine
months of 1998, LOE of $.8 million was up 126 percent when compared to the
first nine months of 1997. This variance was the result of higher workover
activity in 1998 and joint venture audit refunds received in March 1997.
CASH FLOW, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
The Partnership's primary capital resource is net cash provided by
operating activities, which was $5.5 million for the first nine months of 1998,
a decrease of 44 percent from a year ago, driven by lower oil and gas
production and prices. Future cash flows will be similarly influenced by
fluctuations in product prices, production levels and operating costs.
The Partnership repaid all outstanding debt and terminated its revolving
credit facility on January 31, 1997, rendering the Partnership debt free for
the first time in its 14-year history. The Partnership has not incurred any new
debt in 1998.
It is expected that net cash provided by operating activities will be
sufficient to meet the Partnership's liquidity needs through the end of 1998.
However, in the event short-term operating cash requirements are greater than
the Partnership's financial resources, the Partnership will seek short-term,
interest-bearing advances from the Managing Partner.
CAPITAL COMMITMENTS
The Partnership's primary needs for cash are for operating expenses,
drilling and recompletion expenditures, distributions to Investing Partners,
and the purchase of Units offered by Investing Partners under the right of
presentment.
6
8
During the first nine months of 1998, the Partnership's oil and gas
property additions totaled $2.1 million. These additions related primarily to
completions at South Timbalier Block 295, drilling activity at South Pass Block
83 and recompletions and drilling at Ship Shoal Block 259. Based on information
supplied by the operators of the properties, the Partnership anticipates
capital expenditures of approximately $.5 million for the remainder of 1998.
The anticipated capital expenditures relate to the drilling of two new wells at
North Padre Block 989. Such estimates may change based on realized prices,
drilling results or changes by the operator to the development plan.
The Partnership made a distribution of $1,500 per Unit on October 1, 1998.
The amount of future distributions will be dependent on actual and expected
production levels, realized and expected oil and gas prices, and expected
drilling and recompletion expenditures.
As provided in the Amended Partnership Agreement, a first right of
presentment offer for 1998 of $11,161 per Unit, plus interest to the date of
payment, was made to Investing Partners on April 28, 1998, based on a valuation
date of December 31, 1997. As a result, the Partnership acquired 29.832 Units
for a total of $348,000 in cash. A second right of presentment offer for 1998
of $9,824 per Unit, plus interest to the date of payment, was made to Investing
Partners on October 30, 1998, based on a valuation date of June 30, 1998. The
Partnership is not in a position to predict how many Units will be presented
for repurchase during the fourth quarter of 1998 and cannot, at this time,
determine if the Partnership will have sufficient funds available to repurchase
all Units presented.

IMPACT OF THE YEAR 2000 ISSUE
The Year 2000 Issue poses a serious threat of business disruption to any
organization that utilizes computer technology and computer chip technology in
their business systems or equipment. Apache, as Managing Partner, manages the
Partnership's operations. Apache uses a portion of its staff for this purpose
and is reimbursed for actual costs paid on behalf of the Partnership, as well
as for general, administrative and overhead costs properly allocable to the
Partnership. Apache has formed a Year 2000 Task Force with representation from
major business units to inventory and assess the risk of hardware, software,
telecommunications systems, office equipment, embedded chip controls and
systems, process control systems, facility control systems and dependencies on
external trading partners. The project phases, expected completion dates and
percentage complete are as follows:
PHASE COMPLETION DATE % COMPLETE
- --------------------------------------- --------------- ------------
Organization July 1998 100%
Assessment November 1998 70%
Desktop Computers
Network Hardware
Software
Embedded Systems
External Trading Partners
Building/Infrastructure Systems
Telecommunications Systems
Implementation/Replacement July 1999 40%
Computer Hardware
Core Business Software
Desktop Software
Embedded Systems
Building Systems
Contact External Trading Partners February 1999 10%
Contingency Planning March 1999 20%
To date, the Managing Partner is not aware of any significant issues that
would cause problems in the area of safety, environmental or business
interruption in the Year 2000. Apache will assess the risk associated with
hardware, software, infrastructure, embedded chips and external trading
partners that are not Year 2000 compliant. While Apache is confident that Year
2000 remediation efforts will succeed in minimizing exposure to business
disruption, plans are being developed which will allow continuation of business
in all but the worst case scenarios. All remediation and replacement efforts
and contingency planning are expected to be complete by July 1999. All critical
external trading partners will be contacted to determine Year 2000 readiness
and contingency plans will be developed where assurance of Year 2000 compliance
is not received by February 28, 1999.
In 1997, the Managing Partner initiated a project to replace existing
business software as it relates to Apache's production, land, marketing,
accounting and financial systems to more effectively and efficiently meet its
business needs. Replacement computer systems selected by the Managing Partner
from SAP America, Inc., PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Innovative Business
Solutions and Landmark Graphics will properly recognize dates beyond December
31, 1999. The Managing Partner plans to implement the replacement software by
March 31, 1999. The business system replacement project is 60 percent complete
and Apache believes that the March 31, 1999 deadline is attainable.
8
10
The Managing Partner expects that its cost to achieve Year 2000 compliance
will not exceed $4 million. These costs will be borne by the Managing Partner
and will not have any impact on the financial results of the Partnership. The
cost of implementing business replacement systems is not included in these cost
estimates.
The Managing Partner presently believes that with conversions to new
software and completion of efforts planned by the Year 2000 Task Force, the
risk associated with Year 2000 will be significantly reduced. However, the
Managing Partner is unable to assure that the consequences of Year 2000
failures of systems maintained by the Managing Partner or by third parties will
not materially adversely impact the Partnership's results of operations,
liquidity or financial condition.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK
Certain statements in this report, including statements of the future
plans, objectives, and expected performance of the Partnership, are
forward-looking statements that are dependent on certain events, risks and
uncertainties that may be outside the Partnership's control and which could
cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. Some of these
include, but are not limited to, economic and competitive conditions, inflation
rates, legislative and regulatory changes, financial market conditions,
political and economic uncertainties of foreign governments, future business
decisions, and other uncertainties, all of which are difficult to predict.
There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of
proved oil and gas reserves and in projecting future rates of production and
timing of development expenditures. The total amount or timing of actual future
production may vary significantly from reserves and production estimates. The
drilling of exploratory wells can involve significant risks, including those
related to timing, success rates and cost overruns. Lease and rig availability,
complex geology and other factors can affect these risks. Future oil and gas
prices also could affect results of operations and cash flows.
