Conocophillips – multi air permit – Eagle Ford – LIVE OAK
ConocoPhillips is a multinational corporation engaged in hydrocarbon exploration. It is based in the Energy Corridor district of Houston, Texas. The company has operations in 17 countries and has production in the United States, Norway, Canada, Australia, Timor-Leste, Indonesia, Malaysia, Libya, China, and Qatar.
Eagle Ford shale trend, located in south Texas, was one of ConocoPhillips’ most promising development opportunities. We have produced more than 500 million barrels of oil equivalent from the field and proven the Eagle Ford is competitive even in low price environments. On May 4, 2021, the company reached a significant milestone, bringing the 1,500th producing well online. While we celebrate the achievement, we also look ahead to the significant number of high-quality locations left to drill.
Laredo Petroleum, Inc. – Permit #RN111469060- LEECH 29 TB – HOWARD
Laredo Petroleum, Inc. is an independent energy company with headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Laredo’s business strategy is focused on the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties and the gathering of oil and liquids-rich natural gas from such properties, primarily in the Permian Basin of West Texas.
Laredo’s Permian activities are centered on the east side of the basin approximately 35 miles east of Midland, Texas in primarily Glasscock and Reagan Counties. Today, Laredo has over 140,000 gross acres (with a majority of it being contiguous) and of which 85% is HBP.
The principal focus of Laredo’s horizontal drilling activities is an oil play (that also includes a liquids-rich natural gas component) that involves both the Wolfcamp (Upper, Middle, and Lower) and the Cline formations. Secondary targets include the Spraberry, Canyon, Strawn and ABW intervals. In total, over 12 viable landing points have been identified throughout the stratigraphic section (~ 4,500 ft. thick) as being prospective for development.
Salt Creek Midstream, LLC – Permit RN111468666 – TRIBUTE COMPRESSOR STATION – REEVES
Formed in 2017, Houston-headquartered Salt Creek Midstream, LLC is a joint venture of ARM Energy Holdings, LLC and funds managed by the Private Equity Group of Ares. Salt Creek is a full service midstream provider in the Delaware Basin, offering gas and crude gathering, compression, cryogenic processing and treating services, as well as water gathering and disposal services. Salt Creek currently spans over 350,000 acres in gas dedications and approximately 300,000 acres in crude across Culberson, Reeves, Ward, Winkler, Lea, Pecos, and Eddy Counties within the Delaware Basin.
As a full-service midstream provider, Salt Creek will offer gas and crude gathering, compression, cryogenic processing and treating services. It will primarily consist of multiple cryogenic processing facilities, plus crude-gathering pipelines, compression and treating facilities. By the end of this year, Salt Creek is expected to have 260 million cubic feet per day of processing capacity, which could be expanded as producers are added to the system.
So far, Salt Creek has commitments from multiple producers for more than 250,000 dedicated acres across Culberson, Reeves, Ward, Winkler, Lea, Pecos and Eddy counties in the Delaware Basin, part of Texas’ booming Permian Basin.

XTO Energy Inc. – Permit#
RN111470514 – REAGAN
XTO Energy knows the X’s and O’s of a successful oil and gas strategy. The oil and gas exploration and production company buys and develops mostly long-lived producing properties to produce oil and gas (including extracting natural gas and from US shale and other tight formations); it also develops unproved reserves. The company’s assets are mainly in Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, and the Rockies; it also has assets in Appalachia. A subsidiary of Exxon Mobil since 2010, XTO Energy owns interests in about 40,000 producing oil and natural gas wells across the US.
Spraberry Trend covers a large area – around 2,500 square miles. As most often defined, the Spraberry includes portions of Irion, Reagan, Upton, Glasscock, Midland, and Martin Counties. In 2007, the U.S. Department of Energy ranked The Spraberry Trend third in the United States by total proved reserves, and seventh in total production. Estimates have the Spraberry Shale holding up to 10 billion barrels of oil as well as 3 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. Global Hunter estimates the play’s potential recovery resources range from 4.2 to 8.8 billion BOE

Taurus Gas Processing, LP was formed in September 2000, with the acquisition of the Breckenridge sour gas processing plant, formerly owned by Warren Petroleum. In 2005, Taurus built a 20+ mmcfd cryogenic gas processing plant (Plant 112) at the intersection of state highways 183 and 112 near Eastland, Texas.
Today, through a combination of construction projects and acquisitions, the Taurus footprint incorporates more than 1200 miles of low-pressure gathering system, spanning a seven-county area adjacent to Stephens County, Texas and excluding an additional 500 miles of pipe that is presently being activated.
