ATP has received a permit to complete the previously drilled #2 well at Green Canyon (GC) Block 300 (Clipper) in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico.

"We are pleased that the BOEMRE is confident in ATP's commitment to safe and environmentally sound operations," stated T. Paul Bulmahn, ATP's Chairman and CEO. "The Gulf of Mexico is where we refined our deepwater expertise and we are looking forward to generating further production growth."

The GC 300 #2 well, located in 3,454 feet of water, was sidetracked and encountered a gas reservoir between 15,590 and 15,721 feet total vertical depth in 2006. ATP plans to commence well operations with Diamond Offshore's Ocean Victory in 2011. ATP operates GC 300 with a 55% working interest.
