APACHE OFFSHORE INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Apache Offshore Investment Partnership, a Delaware general partnership (the Investment Partnership), was formed on October 31, 1983, consisting of Apache Corporation, a Delaware corporation (Apache or the Managing Partner), as Managing Partner and public investors (the Investing Partners). The Investment Partnership invested its entire capital in Apache Offshore Petroleum Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the Operating Partnership). The primary business of the Investment Partnership is to serve as the sole limited partner of the Operating Partnership. The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of both the Investment Partnership and the Operating Partnership. The term “Partnership”, as used herein, refers to the Investment Partnership or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be.
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by 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. RECEIVABLE FROM/PAYABLE TO APACHE CORPORATION
The receivable from/payable to Apache represents the net result of the Investing Partners’ revenue and expenditure transactions in the current month. Generally, cash in this amount will be paid by Apache to the Partnership or transferred to Apache in the month after the Partnership’s transactions are processed and the net results of operations are determined.
2. RIGHT OF PRESENTMENT
As provided in the Partnership Agreement, as amended (the Amended Partnership Agreement), a first right of presentment offer for 2008 of $13,225 per Unit, plus interest to the date of payment, was made to Investing Partners in April 2008, based on a valuation date of December 31, 2007. As a result, the Partnership purchased 8.67 Units in June 2008 for a total of $119,227. The Investing Partners will have a second right of presentment during the fourth quarter of 2008 based on a valuation date of June 30, 2008.
The Partnership is not in a position to predict how many Units will be presented for repurchase during the fourth quarter of 2008 and cannot, at this time, determine if the Partnership will have sufficient funds available to repurchase any 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 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.
3. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS
The following table is a reconciliation of the asset retirement obligation for the first six months of 2008:
Asset retirement obligation at December 31, 2007 | $ | 1,058,319 | ||
Accretion expense | 31,283 | |||
Asset retirement obligation at June 30, 2008 | $ | 1,089,602 | ||

Table of Contents
The asset retirement obligations reflect the estimated present value of the amount of dismantlement, removal, site reclamation and similar activities associated with our oil and gas properties. The Partnership utilizes current retirement costs to estimate the expected cash outflows for retirement obligations. To determine the current present value of this obligation, some key assumptions the Partnership must estimate include the ultimate productive life of properties, a risk adjusted discount rate, and an inflation factor. To the extent future revisions to these assumptions impact the present value of the existing asset retirement obligation liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the oil and gas property balance.

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 for the second quarter of 2008 of $2.0 million, up from earnings of $1.0 million in the second quarter 2007. Net income per Investing Partner Unit more than doubled from a year ago, increasing from $698 per Unit in the second quarter 2007 to $1,485 per Unit in the current quarter. Higher oil and gas prices and lower repair costs in the current period contributed to the increase in net income.
Net income for the first six months of 2008 totaled $3.6 million or $2,686 per Investing Partner Unit. Net income for the same period in 2007 totaled $2.2 million or $1,626 per Investing Partner Unit. Higher oil and gas prices during the first six months of 2008 contributed to the 59 percent increase in net income from the comparable period in 2007.
Total revenues for the second quarter increased 43 percent from a year ago, increasing to $2.6 million in 2008. For the six months ending June 30, 2008, revenues were $4.8 million, or 29 percent above the revenues for the same period in 2007 on higher oil and gas sales.
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):

Average NGL price – per barrel | $ | 62.95 | $ | 43.80 | 44 | % | $ | 50.99 | $ | 38.57 | 32 | % |
Oil and Gas Sales
Natural gas sales for the second quarter of 2008 totaled $1.2 million, up 12 percent from the second quarter of 2007 on higher gas prices. The Partnership’s average realized natural gas price for the second quarter of 2008 increased $3.90 per Mcf, or 50 percent, from the year-earlier period. Natural gas volumes on a daily basis decreased 26 percent from a year ago largely as a result of natural depletion.
The Partnership’s crude oil sales for the second quarter of 2008 totaled $1.3 million, a 98 percent increase from the second quarter of 2007. A $60.20 per barrel, or 92 percent, increase in the Partnership’s average realized oil price increased sales approximately $0.6 million from the second quarter of 2007. A three barrel per day increase in oil production from the second quarter of last year also contributed to the higher sales in 2008.
Gas sales for the first six months of 2008 of $2.1 million decreased five percent, when compared to the same period in 2007. Largely reflecting natural depletion, daily gas production for the first six months of 2008 declined 29 percent when compared to the same period in 2007. The Partnership’s average realized gas prices increased 33 percent when compared with the first six months of 2007, increasing to $9.91 per Mcf in the first half of 2008.
For the six months ended June 30, 2008, oil sales increased 86 percent from a year ago to $2.5 million. The Partnership’s average realized oil price for the first half of 2008 was up 79 percent from the comparable period in 2007. Oil production during the first half of 2008 was up slightly over the same period a year ago, increasing to 120 barrels of oil per day in 2008.
The Partnership sold an average of 25 barrels per day of natural gas liquids from processing gas during the first half of 2008, a 14 percent increase from 2007. The Partnership’s realized price for natural gas liquids increased to $50.99 in the first six months of 2008.

Table of Contents
Since the Partnership does not anticipate acquiring additional acreage or conducting exploratory drilling on leases in which it currently holds interest, declines in oil and gas production can be expected in future periods as a result of natural depletion. Also, given the small number of producing wells owned by the Partnership and exposure to inclement weather in the Gulf of Mexico, the Partnership’s future production may be subject to more volatility than those companies with a larger or more diversified property portfolio.
Oil and gas prices realized by the Partnership in recent quarters have been at historically high levels as geopolitical tensions throughout the world, rising demand from developing nations, and supply constraints have boosted market prices. Continued high commodity prices may lead to legislative action, including price controls, a windfall profits tax, and incentives to switch to alternative fuels. Declines in prices from changes in market conditions or federal legislation, coupled with the Partnership’s limited opportunity for production growth, would lead to lower revenues and cash available for distributions to partners.
Operating Expenses
The Partnership’s depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) rate, expressed as a percentage of oil and gas sales, was approximately nine percent during the second quarter of 2008 compared to 13 percent during the same period in 2007. The Partnership’s DD&A rate for six months ending June 30, 2008 was 10 percent, expressed as a percentage of oil and gas sales. The decline in rate as a percentage of sales reflected favorable reserve revisions booked in the fourth quarter of 2007, lower net amortizable cost, and higher oil and gas prices boosting current oil and gas sales. During the second quarter, the Partnership recognized $15,755 of accretion expense on the asset retirement obligation. Accretion expense totaled $31,283 for the six-month period ending June 30, 2008 compared to $21,936 during the comparable period in 2007.
Lease operating expense (LOE) for the second quarter of 2008 of $271,454 decreased 43 percent from the second quarter of 2007 on lower repair costs. Sandblasting, painting and repairs on the North Padre Island 969 platform contributed to the higher than usual lease operating expense during the second quarter of 2007. Year-to-date lease operating expense in 2007 was also higher as a result of the high repair and maintenance costs at North Padre Island 969. Administrative expense decreased four percent from the second quarter of 2007 and decreased three percent from the six month period ending June 30, 2007.
Gathering and transportation costs during the second quarter of 2008 and first half of 2008 declined 58 percent and 39 percent, respectively, from the comparable period in 2007 as a result of lower gas sales volumes.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
The Partnership’s primary capital resource is net cash provided by operating activities, which totaled $3.8 million for the first six months of 2008. Net cash provided by operating activities in the quarter was up 32 percent from a year ago as a result of increases in oil and gas prices. Future cash flows will be influenced by fluctuations in product prices, production levels and operating costs.
The Partnership’s future financial condition, results of operations and cash from operating activities will largely depend upon prices received for its oil and natural gas production. A substantial portion of the Partnership’s production is sold under market-sensitive contracts. Prices for oil and natural gas are subject to fluctuations in response to changes in supply, market uncertainty and a variety of factors beyond the Partnership’s control. These factors include worldwide political instability (especially in the Middle East), the foreign supply of oil and natural gas, the price of foreign imports, the level of consumer demand, and the price and availability of alternative fuels.
The Partnership’s oil and gas reserves and production will also significantly impact future results of operations and cash from operating activities. The Partnership’s production is subject to fluctuations in response to remaining quantities of oil and gas reserves, weather, pipeline capacity, consumer demand, mechanical performance and workover, recompletion and drilling activities. Declines in oil and gas production can be expected in future years as a result of normal depletion and the Partnership not participating in acquisition or exploration activities. Based on production estimates from independent engineers and current market conditions, the Partnership expects it will be able to meet its liquidity needs for routine operations in the foreseeable future. The Partnership will reduce capital expenditures and distributions to partners as cash from operating activities decline.

Table of Contents
In the event that future short-term operating cash requirements are greater than the Partnership’s financial resources, the Partnership may seek short-term, interest-bearing advances from the Managing Partner as needed. The Managing Partner, however, is not obligated to make loans to the Partnership.
On an ongoing basis, the Partnership reviews the possible sale of lower value properties prior to incurring associated dismantlement and abandonment costs.
Capital Commitments
The Partnership’s primary needs for cash are for operating expenses, drilling and recompletion expenditures, future dismantlement and abandonment costs, distributions to Investing Partners, and the purchase of Units offered by Investing Partners under the right of presentment. To the extent there is discretion, the Partnership allocates available capital to investment in the Partnership’s properties so as to maximize production and resultant cash flow. The Partnership had no outstanding debt or lease commitments at June 30, 2008. The Partnership did not have any contractual obligations as of June 30, 2008, other than the liability for dismantlement and abandonment costs of its oil and gas properties. The Partnership has recorded a separate liability for the fair value of this asset retirement obligation as discussed in the notes to the financial statements included in the Partnership’s latest annual report on Form 10-K.
The Partnership’s cash capital expenditures totaled $30,432 for the first six months of 2008 as it participated in two recompletion projects during the period. The Managing Partner initiated recompletions on the South Timbalier 295 A-17 and A-18 wells during 2008. The A-18 recompletion was unsuccessful and the A-17 is being evaluated for additional work.
Based on information supplied by the operators of the properties, the Partnership anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $0.5 million for the remainder of 2008. Such estimates may change based on realized prices, drilling results or changes by the operator to the development plan.
On March 12, 2008, the Partnership paid distributions to Investing Partners totaling $2.1 million, or $2,000 per Investing Partner Unit. The Partnership also paid a distribution of $2,000 per unit during the first half of 2007. The total distribution during the first half of 2008 was down slightly from the first half of 2007 as a result of fewer units outstanding in 2008. The amount of future distributions will be dependent on actual and expected production levels, realized and expected oil and gas prices, expected drilling and recompletion expenditures, and prudent cash reserves for future dismantlement and abandonment costs that will be incurred after the Partnership’s reserves are depleted.
As provided in the Amended Partnership Agreement, a first right of presentment offer for 2008 of $13,225 per Unit was offered to Investing Partners in April 2008, based on a valuation date of December 31, 2007. As a result, the Partnership purchased 8.67 Units in June 2008 for a total of $119,227. The Investing Partners will have a second right of presentment during the fourth quarter of 2008 based on a valuation date of July 31, 2008.
The Partnership is not in a position to predict how many Units will be presented for repurchase during the fourth quarter of 2008 and cannot, at this time, determine if the Partnership will have sufficient funds available to repurchase any 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 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 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
The Partnership’s major market risk exposure is in the pricing applicable to its oil and gas production. Realized pricing is primarily driven by the prevailing worldwide price for crude oil and spot prices applicable to its natural gas production. Prices received for oil and gas production have been and remain volatile and unpredictable. The Partnership has not used derivative financial instruments or otherwise engaged in hedging activities during 2007 or the first six months of 2008.
The information set forth under “Commodity Risk” in Item 7A of the Partnership’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, is incorporated by reference. Information about market risks for the current quarter is not materially different.

ITEM 4T – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
G. Steven Farris, the Managing Partner’s President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, and Roger B. Plank, the Managing Partner’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2008, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation and as of the date of that evaluation, these officers concluded that the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, providing effective means to ensure that information it is required to disclose under applicable laws and regulations is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and communicated to management, including the Managing Partner’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
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, the market prices of oil and gas, 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. Fluctuations in oil and gas prices, or a prolonged period of low prices, may substantially adversely affect the Partnership’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
