Permian region overview

Report summary

The Permian is the most active basin in the Lower 48. Its sub-basins Delaware and Midland both contain large volumes of low-cost resource. Operators are developing multiple productive benches in most of the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring. The region will continue to drive US onshore growth. We use our Lens dataset to outline key trends based on well level analysis and upstream asset valuations, including productivity, investment, value, geology, and activity.
