Up to $1.5 Billion for Percussion Petroleum in the Permian Basin
07/11/2022
Around 25,000 net acres in the Permian shale basin are being sold by Percussion Petroleum II, looking to fetch up to $1.5 billion, as some sources bet on rising oil prices to pocket more than double what it paid in 2021.
Percussion, a Houston-based oil and gas company, produces over 10,000 bopd from approximately 100 wellbores across 20,000+ net acres in Loving, Ward, and Winkler County in the Delaware Basin.
The company spent $375 million plus contingent payments a year ago to buy the bulk of its assets in one of the most prolific crude-producing areas in the U.S. from Oasis Petroleum Inc.
The oil prices increased to triple digits and buyers wanted to gain a toehold in the basin, whereas backers of private shale companies such as Percussion use it as a chance to exit their investments with big profits.
Remarkably, U.S. crude oil futures have grown about 50% to approximately $109/bbl since June 29, 2021, when Percussion closed its deal with Oasis.
Since Percussion has been founded in 2020 with investment from private equity firm Carnelian Energy Capital, it generates around 21,000 boe/d from more than 375 drilling locations.
The company expects the growth of production of 33,000 boe/d by the end of the year from the asset as the company is now working with an adviser for the sale of assets. Percussion and Carnelian did not give any answers to commenting requests. Private equity firm Old Ironsides Energy, also an investor in Percussion, refused to comment.
Being a part of the Delaware formation, Percussion’s assets have been among the most active and favorable regions for multibillion-dollar deals in recent months. The Permian Basin, spread over Texas and New Mexico, is forecast to set a record production of 5.316 million bbl/d in July.
In June, a well-known oilman Harold Hamm proposed to take Continental Resources Inc. private at a valuation of more than $25 billion, several months after it entered the Permian Basin by purchasing Delaware Basin acreage from its rival.
Meanwhile, Centennial Resource Development Inc. decided to merge with Colgate Energy Partners in May to form a $7 billion Permian-focused oil producer.
