HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ATP Oil & Gas Corporation (NASDAQ: ATPG) today
announced results for third quarter 2010 and an update on operations.
Results of Operations
Production for the third quarter 2010 averaged 21.1 MBoe/day, compared to 21
.3 MBoe/day for the second quarter and 38% greater than the comparable
quarter in 2009. Revenues from oil and gas production were $102.1 million
for the third quarter 2010 compared to $75.0 million for the third quarter
2009. Oil continued to represent a majority of revenues, accounting for 77%
of revenues in the third quarter 2010 and 78% in the comparable 2009 period.
A net loss attributable to common shareholders of $58.4 million, or $1.15
per basic and diluted share for the third quarter 2010 was recorded. This
compares to a third quarter 2009 net loss of $9.1 million, or $0.20 per
basic and diluted share.
Lease operating expense for the third quarter 2010 was $27.5 million ($21.6
million recurring and $5.9 million workover expenses) compared to $22.9
million ($17.1 million recurring and $5.8 million workover expense) for the
third quarter 2009. The increase in recurring operating expense was
primarily due to the new production from the Telemark Hub and additional
insurance costs associated with ATP’s annual July 1 renewal. ATP began
recording lease operating expenses at its Telemark Hub in the second quarter
2010 with the commencement of production from the Atwater Valley 63 #4 well
. No such expenses had been recorded in the comparable 2009 period.
General and administrative expense for the third quarter 2010 increased $2.7
million from the same period in 2009 to $9.6 million. Third quarter 2010
includes $1.8 million of noncash stock-based compensation compared with a
similar amount in the comparable 2009 quarter. The overall increase was
primarily due to higher net compensation expense and professional fees.
Interest expense for the third quarter 2010 was $69.2 million, net of $3.3
million capitalized related to the Octabuoy construction. Interest expense
for the third quarter 2009 was $9.0 million, net of $25.7 million
capitalized related to the development of the Telemark Hub and $2.0 million
capitalized related to the Octabuoy construction. With installation of the
ATP Titan at the company’s Telemark Hub and commencement of production at
this location on March 28, 2010, the Telemark Hub no longer qualifies for
interest capitalization. For the third quarter 2010, interest expense
includes ATP’s first lien and senior secured second lien bonds (a total of
$50.8 million), the new loan associated with the financing of the ATP Titan
as discussed below ($0.3 million) and other obligations, less amounts
capitalized as discussed above. A summary of payments related to other long-
term obligations is set forth at the end of this release.
Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill and Drilling Moratorium Update
ATP is in the process of filing permits for additional wells at the Telemark
and Gomez Hubs with the lifting of the deepwater moratorium in the Gulf of
Mexico on October 12 by the Department of Interior (DOI). Although the
moratorium has ended, ATP cannot predict when permits will be granted under
the DOI’s new requirements.
Operations Update
Telemark Hub
A second well, Mississippi Canyon (“MC”) Block 941 A-1 formerly the MC 941
#3, was completed at this hub in early October 2010. During October’s
production cycle, the well averaged 8.2 MBoe/d (86% oil) with an October
exit rate of 12.2 MBoe/d (86% oil). ATP has completed and filed the permit
application to finalize drilling and completion of the next well at the
Telemark Hub and the operation to move the platform rig to the slot for the
well is underway. The third and fourth wells at this hub were both drilled
to approximately 12,000 feet in 2009. The target depth for each well is
approximately 20,000 feet. ATP operates the deepwater Telemark Hub with a
100% working interest and owns 100% of the subsidiary that owns the ATP
Titan and associated pipelines and infrastructure.
Gomez Hub
Development operations at Anduin West, part of the Gomez Hub, to tie-in the
MC 754 #3 well have been delayed while ATP awaits approval to lay the
pipeline. Approval is expected allowing pipeline installation to commence
before year’s end. The MC 754 #3 well was originally drilled and completed
in the second quarter 2008. ATP operates MC 754 with a 75% working interest.
Tors Hub
ATP operates the Tors Hub consisting of Kilmar and Garrow in the UK North
Sea with a 17% working interest. ATP drilled and tested a step-out appraisal
well on Kilmar in May. A sidetrack to this well into a separate fault block
has been completed and evaluation is underway. After the work at Kilmar,
the drilling rig was moved to the Garrow field where the Garrow G2 well is
being drilled with production expected in late 2010.
Cheviot (Octabuoy)
The construction of the Octabuoy Hull, which will be initially deployed at
Cheviot, ATP’s largest development in terms of proved and probable reserves
in the UK North Sea, is approaching 80% completion. ATP is in discussions
with the hull building contractor to also construct the topsides using a
similar construction and finance agreement.
Acquisitions and Divestitures
In the third quarter of 2010, ATP sold a 67% working interest in the deep
operating rights of one of its Gulf of Mexico properties to a third party
for an undisclosed amount resulting in a $15.0 million gain. In addition,
ATP retained a 10.005% overriding royalty interest that decreases to 1.6675%
following the conclusion of deepwater royalty relief.
Effective July 1, 2010, ATP was granted a lease on Ship Shoal Block 361 (SS
361). ATP bid on SS 361 at the Central Gulf of Mexico Offshore Lease Sale
213 held in New Orleans in March 2010. SS 361 is located six miles west of
ATP’s SS 358 Hub and was the subject of previous drilling activity. The
water depth for this block is approximately 387 feet.
During the third quarter, payout was achieved on the limited term overriding
royalty interests at MC 711 resulting in a net revenue interest assigned
back to ATP of 12.825% in MC 711 and MC 755. In June 2008, ATP received $82.
0 million in exchange for this limited term overriding royalty interest.
ATP Titan Transaction
On September 24, 2010, ATP contributed its ownership in the ATP Titan
platform and related assets to ATP Titan LLC ("Titan LLC"), a wholly-owned
and unrestricted subsidiary. Simultaneously with the transfer, ATP entered
into an exclusive platform use agreement with Titan LLC and Titan LLC
secured a $350 million term loan facility with CLG Energy Finance, LLC ("CLG
Energy"), an affiliate of Beal Bank Nevada. The facility was funded $150
million at closing, with future draws available subject to lender approval.
In accordance with the agreement, Titan LLC is in the process of completing
an additional draw request of $100 million now that the second well at the
Telemark Hub has commenced production. An additional $100 million in equal
draws of $50 million each may be requested as ATP commences production from
the third and fourth wells at the Telemark Hub. The terms of the loan
between Titan LLC and CLG Energy call for annual principal reductions of 8%
in the first year, 9% during the second year and then 10% thereafter until
maturity in September 2017. All payments are made quarterly and bear
interest at LIBOR (floor of 0.75%) plus 8%. As a 100% wholly-owned
subsidiary, all operations of Titan LLC are consolidated into ATP.
2010 Revised Guidance for Production and CAPEX
The impact from the BP oil spill and resulting moratorium discussed above
has caused significant adjustments to ATP’s production estimates and CAPEX
program. ATP incurred CAPEX costs of $631.7 million during the first nine
months of 2010. Of this amount, $50.0 million was capitalized interest, $118
.5 million was financed by suppliers through NPI and vendor deferral
programs with the balance paid by ATP. For the fourth quarter 2010, ATP
anticipates that it will incur $60 - $70 million in total CAPEX of which $45
– $50 million will be cash with the balance contributed by suppliers
through existing NPI programs or deferral programs. These capital
expenditures include continued development operations at Telemark and the
laying of pipeline and final connections for the Anduin West project at the
Gomez Hub in the Gulf of Mexico. In the North Sea, capital activities will
include completion operations for the Garrow G2 well at Tors and continued
construction of the Octabuoy for ATP’s Cheviot development. Regarding
production, ATP reaffirms its previously estimated 8.0 MMBoe minimum
production target for the year.
