(WO) — Matador Resources Co. plans to produce more oil in 2024 than previously planned, a signal that wells in the western part of the Permian basin — the busiest U.S. oil field — continue to lead national oil growth.

Dallas-based Matador now plans to produce an average of 98,500 to 101,500 bopd in 2024, a 5% increase from the company’s previous projection. The upper end of Matador’s previous full-year projection was 96,500 bopd. 

The company surpassed its production volume expectations in each quarter this year and Matador is already seeing better-than-expected flows from the new assets it acquired from EnCap Investments LP, which Matador took over toward the end of the third quarter.

The integration of new assets as well as improved drilling efficiencies and hydraulic fracturing multiple wells simultaneously helped lead to Matador’s production results outstripping expectations, Matador executives said Wednesday during an earnings conference call with analysts.

The global oil market is keeping a close eye on U.S. explorers for signs of peak growth in shale. On Tuesday, Jefferies Financial Group Inc. slashed its estimate for U.S. oil growth this year by 16% as consolidation and efficiencies slow overall activity in the shale patch.
