Hilcorp San Juan, L.P. has closed on its acquisition of the San Juan Basin assets from ConocoPhillips. The 1.3 million net acres purchase instantly places Hilcorp Energy amongst the top producers in the San Juan Basin. The company believes the assets are teeming with opportunity to profitably grow production.

“With the acquisition now complete, Hilcorp can start doing the technical work required to increase production in New Mexico and Colorado, just as we’ve done in other areas of the country. Throughout this entire process, we’ve identified significant potential remaining in the base assets as well as in the Mancos Shale,” said Jason Rebrook, president and chief development officer.

Hilcorp has a long track record of developing assets acquired from major oil and gas producers. While other companies have reduced their exposure to traditional, conventional assets, Hilcorp has become a leader in extending and improving the production lives of these assets through expertise, innovation and efficient operations. This entry into the San Juan Basin is a natural extension of Hilcorp’s business model.

“Hilcorp sees decades of future production and development in the basin. We are excited for the opportunity to enhance oil and natural gas production in the Four Corners Region, and we expect to become responsible members of the local community by boosting economic activity and developing strong, long-lasting partnerships,” said Greg Lalicker, president and chief operations officer.

The assets purchased by Hilcorp currently produce ~120,000 BOED with a decline rate of 7 percent annually. Hilcorp’s immediate goal will be to take over operations from ConocoPhillips in a safe and environmentally responsible manner. Concurrently, efforts will begin to stabilize the production from these assets. Workover rigs will be deployed to the San Juan Basin in the near-term to begin working on existing wells.

Hilcorp San Juan, L.P. is a partnership between Hilcorp Energy Company and The Carlyle Group.
