Whiting Petroleum Completes Williston Basin Asset Acquisition, D-J Basin Asset Divestiture and Revolver Redetermination
September 27 2021 - 4:05PM
Business Wire
Whiting Petroleum Corporation (NYSE:WLL) today announced that is
has completed its previously announced acquisition of the leasehold
interests and related assets in the Williston Basin of North
Dakota. The Company also closed the divestiture of its Redtail
leasehold interests and related assets, including associated
midstream assets, located in the Denver-Julesburg Basin of
Colorado. The transactions had an immaterial effect on current
production but resulted in the addition of approximately 60
drillable locations that compete for capital immediately.
Commensurate with the closing of the two transactions, the
Company completed the redetermination of its borrowing base under
its revolving credit facility (the “revolver”). The borrowing base
and aggregate commitments were both reaffirmed at the previous
amount of $750 million. The difference in the acquisition costs and
divestiture proceeds of the two transactions of approximately $90
million was funded with the revolver. Whiting continues to expect
to have a positive cash balance and no outstanding borrowings on
the revolver by the end of the year.
