Build Operating Focus and Scale

We believe one of the keys to success in the U.S. exploration and production industry is to build significant operating scale in areas that share many similar geological and operational characteristics. Achieving such scale provides many benefits, including superior geoscientific and engineering information, higher per unit revenues, lower per unit operating expenses, greater rates of drilling success, higher returns from more easily integrated acquisitions and higher returns on drilling investments. By focusing most of our future activities in virtually all of the nation’s major unconventional resource plays and not investing offshore and internationally, we expect to continue to achieve the significant benefits of focus and scale.​​​​
