Strategic Initiatives
Growth programs, investments, and their expected impact
Focusing capital expenditures on oil-weighted projects in the Permian and Powder River Basins to shift the commodity mix and capitalize on higher oil prices.

Developing a three-well Parkman pad in Campbell County, Wyoming, while actively evaluating a sell-down of working interest to manage capital risk.
Expected impact: Forecasted peak production of 1,600 BOE/d (or 1,060 BOE/d if a 20%-30% working interest sell-down is executed to manage risk).
