Whiting and Oasis Complete Combination, Establishing Chord Energy
Chord Energy Corporation has successfully completed the combination of Whiting Petroleum Corporation and Oasis Petroleum, creating a scaled unconventional U.S. oil producer with a premier Williston Basin position with top tier assets across approximately 972,000 net acres, combined first quarter production of 171.1 thousand boepd, and enhanced free cash flow generation.
The word “chord” is frequently used to describe multiple musical notes sounded simultaneously and harmoniously, while an alternative definition is a line segment joining two points on a circle. Chord Energy represents the joining of separate entities whose complementary strengths create something more formidable than either independent entity. Together the new company is positioned to prosper and deliver value creation through the constantly evolving energy landscape.
“We are excited to establish Chord Energy, which will build on the proud legacies and extraordinary talent and capabilities of Whiting and Oasis. With a premier Williston Basin position, a peer-leading balance sheet, significant scale and enhanced free cash flow generation, Chord is positioned to succeed. Chord will execute a focused strategy to enhance value delivery to our shareholders and maintain a strong commitment to safety, gas capture and emissions reduction,” said Danny Brown, Chord’s president and chief executive officer.
“I want to thank all of our talented employees for their dedication to operating safely and with integrity as we integrate our two companies,” added Brown.
