Diamondback Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:FANG) (“Diamondback” or the
“Company”) today announced production for the third quarter of 2017
was 85.0 Mboe/d (61.7 Mbo/d; 73% oil), an increase of over 10% from
Q2 2017 average daily production of 77.0 Mboe/d. Third quarter
production volumes were not affected by Hurricane Harvey.
Viper Energy Partners LP (“Viper”), a subsidiary of Diamondback,
also announced Q3 2017 production volumes of 12.6 Mboe/d (8.6
Mbo/d; 68% oil), an increase of approximately 20% from Q2 2017
average daily production of 10.5 Mboe/d. Viper continues to see
higher than expected third-party volumes from recent acquisitions,
some of which are in areas with higher gas production.
Diamondback is currently running nine drilling rigs and four
dedicated completion crews. The Company recently commenced
operations with a fourth newbuild completion spread that has
executed as well as Diamondback’s three existing dedicated crews.
"Diamondback continues to execute on its 2017 plan. Cash flow
has grown to the point that the Company believes it can run nine
rigs within cash flow and continue to grow at industry leading
rates. Following the industry’s return to growth, 2017 was always
going to be about execution, which Diamondback has continued to
prove it can do at the highest level. As the low-cost operator
with respect to both capital and cash costs, we look forward to the
Permian Basin continuing to evolve from a basin focused on resource
capture to a manufacturing process focused on resource execution,"
stated Travis Stice, Chief Executive Officer of Diamondback.
