Report summary
ConocoPhillips' message and strategy have been consistent since 2017, focused like a laser on perpetual high-grading of the company’s low cost-of-supply portfolio, maintaining a resilient balance sheet, and returning meaningful capital to shareholders. As one of the few companies with a strong balance sheet and strategic flexibility heading into the pandemic downturn in 2020, ConocoPhillips was able to make two transformative counter-cyclical deals that turned a mid-table Lower 48 segment into an elite Permian position. The flipside of the rapid assembly of a Permian powerhouse is that the portfolio is now much more concentrated, and Permian growth will concentrate it further. There are opportunities for re-balancing investments. The company took steps in that direction in 2022, making numerous moves towards building LNG into a third major growth and value theme. But after two years of portfolio-transforming deals, 2023 likely represents a further pivot towards execution and delivery.
