Oil and Gas Properties
Delaware Basin - The Delaware Basin is the company's largest and most active program in the portfolio with operations in southeast New Mexico and across the state line into west Texas. The company has built an industry-leading position in this basin. Through capital efficient drilling programs, it offers exploration and low-risk development opportunities from many geologic reservoirs and play types, including the oil-rich Wolfcamp, Bone Spring, Avalon and Delaware formations. With a significant inventory of oil and liquids-rich drilling opportunities that have multi-zone development potential, Devon has a robust platform to deliver high-margin drilling programs. As of December 31, 2024, the company had 15 operated rigs developing this asset in the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring formations.
Rockies – The company’s Rockies development consists of its Williston Basin and Powder River Basin assets.
On September 27, 2024, the company completed its acquisition of the Williston Basin business of Grayson Mill, which significantly expanded its operating position within the basin. The company’s position in the Williston is focused on the oil-prone Bakken and Three Forks formations located across eastern Montana and western North Dakota. On December 31, 2024, the company had three operated rigs developing the Williston Basin.
The company’s Powder River asset focuses on emerging oil opportunities in Wyoming's Powder River Basin. The company is targeting several Cretaceous oil objectives, including the Turner, Parkman, Teapot and Niobrara formations. Recent drilling success in this basin has expanded the company’s drilling inventory, and it expects further growth as it continues to de-risk this emerging light-oil opportunity. On December 31, 2024, the company had one operated rig developing the Powder River Basin asset.
Eagle Ford - The company's Eagle Ford operations are located in Texas' DeWitt and Karnes counties, situated in the economic core of this south Texas play. Its production is leveraged to oil and has access to premium Gulf Coast pricing, providing for strong operating margins. At December 31, 2024, the company had one operated and one non-operated rig developing this asset.
Anadarko Basin - The company's Anadarko Basin development, located in western Oklahoma, is one of the largest in the industry, providing substantial long-term inventory optionality. The company has an agreement with Dow to jointly develop a portion of its Anadarko Basin acreage and, as of December 31, 2024, it had a two-rig program associated with this joint venture.
