Diamondback 是西德克萨斯州和新墨西哥州石油资源丰富的二叠纪盆地最大的独立运营商之一,根据周一发布的一份声明,该公司预计今年的石油产量将达到 276,000 桶/天,高于早先预测的 275,000 桶/天。该公司还下调了全年资本支出预算。

根据声明,Diamondback 在 2024 年第二季度在米德兰盆地钻探了 71 口综合井,在特拉华盆地钻探了 9 口综合井。该公司在米德兰盆地将 79 口运营井投入生产,在特拉华盆地将 7 口综合井投入生产,平均水平长度为 11,203 英尺。

Diamondback 报告称,第二季度完成的井数包括 21 口 Lower Spraberry 井、20 口 Wolfcamp A 井、16 口 Wolfcamp B 井、10 口 Middle Spraberry 井、9 口 Jo Mill 井、5 口 Dean 井、3 口 Wolfcamp D 井、1 口 Second Bone Spring 井和 1 口 Barnett 井。

Diamondback 在给股东的一封信中写道:“我们显然用更少的资源做了更多的事情,而且每个季度的运营效率都在提高。”

页岩油钻探商大幅增加产量,使石油输出国组织及其盟友管理全球价格的努力变得复杂。

Diamondback, one of the largest independent operators in the oil-rich Permian basin of West Texas and New Mexico, expects to pumps as much as 276,000 bpd this year, up from an earlier top-end forecast of 275,000 bpd, according to a statement released Monday. The company also lowered its full-year capital spending budget.

According to the statement, Diamondback drilled 71 gross wells in the Midland basin and nine gross wells in the Delaware basin during Q2 2024. The company turned 79 operated wells to production in the Midland basin and seven gross wells in the Delaware basin, with an average lateral length of 11,203 ft.

Diamondback reported that operated completions during Q2 consisted of 21 Lower Spraberry wells, 20 Wolfcamp A wells, 16 Wolfcamp B wells, 10 Middle Spraberry wells, nine Jo Mill wells, five Dean wells, three Wolfcamp D wells, one Second Bone Spring well and one Barnett well.

For H1 2024, Diamondback drilled 140 gross wells in the Midland basin and 19 gross wells in the Delaware basin. The company turned 180 operated wells to production in the Midland basin and seven operated wells to production in the Delaware basin.

The average lateral length for wells completed during the first six months of 2024 was 11,343 ft, and consisted of 51 Lower Spraberry wells, 39 Wolfcamp A wells, 31 Wolfcamp B wells, 25 Jo Mill wells, 22 Middle Spraberry wells, nine Wolfcamp D wells, five Dean wells, three Upper Spraberry wells, one Second Bone Spring well and one Barnett well.

“We are clearly doing more with less and becoming more operationally efficient each quarter,” Diamondback wrote in a letter to stockholders.

Aggressive production increases by shale drillers complicates efforts by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies to manage global prices.
