The majority of the acquired assets are located in southern Borden County and northern Howard County in Texas.

In the next 12 months, Kimbell expects the acquired assets to produce about 1,901 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boed). This includes 1,459 barrels per day (bopd) of oil, 219 bopd of NGLs, and 1,338 million cubic feet per day (mcfd) of natural gas. 

If the deal materialises, Kimbell is anticipated to have over 16 million gross acres, over 125,000 gross wells, and a total of 97 operational rigs, which accounts for over 13% of all active land rigs drilling in the continental US.

In terms of production, active rig count, drilled but uncompleted wells (DUCs), permits, and undrilled inventory, it solidifies the Permian basin’s position as Kimbell’s top basin.
