Forward Guidance
NOG is updating its annual guidance. The increase in budgeted capital expenditures is being driven by accelerated development activity and Ground Game success, which are primarily focused on 2024 turn-in-line activity. Overall, the Company expects its 2023 well spud count to increase to a range of 76 - 79 net wells, compared to expectations of 68 - 71 net wells implied in prior guidance. The Company has also tightened production guidance, with the midpoint unchanged, and modestly improved oil differential and gas realization guidance to reflect year-to-date actuals.
