Report summary
Carrizo Oil & Gas acquired 16,488 net acres in the core of the Delaware Basin from private operator ExL Petroleum for US$648 million in cash, potentially rising to US$753 million contingent WTI annual averages. Carrizo is acquiring West Texas assets, located in Reeves and Ward counties, which are 20 to 30 miles east of Carrizo's current Permian operations. The contiguous position includes flowing production of approximately 8,000 boe/d (48% oil) from 11 existing horizontal wells.
