Produces crude oil, NGLs, and natural gas through a single upstream business focused on the Williston Basin, where acquired acreage and operating execution shape the business.
Acquires, explores, develops, and produces crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas primarily in the Williston Basin. The business became Chord Energy when Oasis Petroleum merged with Whiting in 2022, and it added Enerplus operations in 2024.
Operations emphasize capital discipline, operating efficiency, cost-structure initiatives, and extended-lateral execution. The company operates as one reportable upstream business rather than separate segments.
Enerplus's producing assets were substantially in North Dakota's Williston Basin, while it also had limited non-operated Marcellus interests. The business depends on Williston Basin operating execution, realized commodity prices, asset inventory, and integrating acquired acreage and personnel.
