Continental Resources Halts drilling in North Dakota

$69 a few minutes ago. Yet well over $4 per gallon here in Vegas and over $3 back home.
 
Here’s an update on Chord. In one month they lost over 20% of their value and the share price is almost back where they were five years ago. They are not making a net profit.

Ham knows the biz no doubt.

I wonder what their completion and drilling costs are coming to currently?

I know when companies get sold that are in the Williston (mainly Bakken drilling). The purchasing company generally takes on quite a bit of debt in the acquisition and that makes it even harder to break even.

Yes, last quarter, Chord had $1.5B of debt on the books. These guys are not Exxon Mobil.

Also, sometimes the asset is not all it's cracked up to be either. If thorough due diligence isn't done could've been a bad purchase from the start (along with the acquired debt). Companies wrap assets up nice and pretty with a bow hoping someone will bite.
