This deal is expected to boost pro forma production to approximately 400,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day. Management also highlighted significant synergy captures in the Permian Basin, reaching $295 million—nearly triple their original guidance. Despite inflationary pressures on steel and diesel, the company maintains a strong liquidity position of $2 billion and clear deleveraging targets.
