Viper Energy Partners LP, a Subsidiary of Diamondback Energy, Inc., Provides Fourth Quarter 2019 Production Update and Schedules Fourth Quarter 2019 Conference Call for February 12, 2020
MIDLAND, Texas, Jan. 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Viper Energy Partners LP (NASDAQ: VNOM) (“Viper” or the “Company”) today announced that its average daily production for the fourth quarter of 2019 was 26.1 Mboe/d (16.5 Mbo/d), an increase of approximately 23% from Q3 2019 average daily production of 21.3 Mboe/d (13.7 Mbo/d).
Average daily production for the full year 2019 was 21.5 Mboe/d (14.0 Mbo/d), an increase of approximately 25% from full year 2018 average daily volumes of 17.3 Mboe/d (12.1 Mbo/d).
“Viper showed strong production growth in the fourth quarter of 2019, up 23% sequentially, primarily driven by the outperformance of Diamondback-operated properties, including five wells turned to production during the fourth quarter in Spanish Trail in which Viper owns a 25% royalty interest. After closing two large, primarily equity-funded acquisitions in October 2019, Viper increased production per million partnership units outstanding by approximately five percent quarter-over-quarter despite the headwinds of a broad activity slowdown on non-operated properties during the fourth quarter,” stated Travis Stice, Chief Executive Officer of Viper’s general partner.
Additionally, Viper today announced it plans to release fourth quarter 2019 financial results on February 11, 2020 after the market closes.
