APA Corp: An Interesting Proxy For Suriname Working Interests But Not Much Else (Rating Downgrade)
APA had strong FCF generation in Q4, significantly improving the company's full year performance. I expect FCF generation to reduce in 2025 due to weaker oil prices but offset by improving natural gas fundamentals and lower CAPEX expenses. The company is beginning the four-year journey to bring online the Suriname asset. This asset is expected to product very healthy margins with breakeven levels below $20/barrel.
