Ladies and Gentlemen:

Pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), APA Corporation (the “Company”) hereby respectfully requests that the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-282392), together with all exhibits thereto (the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on September 27, 2024, be withdrawn, effective as of the date hereof. The Company is withdrawing the Registration Statement because it is continuing with the exchange offers and consent solicitations described in the Registration Statement on an unregistered basis. The Company hereby confirms that the Registration Statement has not been declared effective and that no securities have been sold thereunder.

The Company requests that, in accordance with Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act and subject to compliance with the requirements thereof, all fees paid to the Commission in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement be credited for potential future use.
