(51% crude oil, 5% NGLs, and 44% natural gas) of production behind pipe and associated 100% owned
and operated facilities.
GOLD CREEK:
- 12,000 net acres contiguous with Spartan’s current land base in Gold Creek
- 40 net extended reach horizontals locations identified
- Two locations are expected to be drilled on the acquired lands in the second half of 2021 as part of Spartan’s four well program in Gold Creek
