Hedging and collars shape Permian Basin oil strategy
Permian producers rely on hedging to cushion price swings with Pioneer locking about 90 percent of 2016 oil at roughly $71 per barrel and RSP Permian using floors of $86 for 35 percent of 2015 volumes and three way collars for 2016. Executives warn demand and lending shifts loom as hedges expire, while some independents like Falken Oil focus on production. Chevron plans 300 new Permian wells amid cost efficiencies and vast untapped prospects, as service firms foresee a downturn until prices stabilize into the 50s and 60s. McMasters on a Falken rig notes pay has fallen 40 percent from 2014–15 but job stability remains.
