APA expected to close its acquisition of Savant Alaska, LLC in the fourth quarter of 2026 for approximately $70 million in upfront consideration plus contingent payments tied to future development. The transaction is expected to add approximately 104,000 gross acres and about 1,500 b/d of oil production, with acquired infrastructure supporting 2026–2027 exploration and appraisal activity. In the first nine months of 2026, APA also sold non-core Permian assets, a factor cited in lower production and lease operating expenses compared with the prior year.
