Value Focus | Exploration & Production
Fourth Quarter 2022 | Region Focus: Appalachian Basin
Mercer Capital’s Value Focus: Exploration & Production newsletter provides an overview of the industry through supply and demand analysis, commodity pricing, and public market performance. In addition, each issue of this quarterly newsletter focuses on a region, including, Eagle Ford, Permian, Bakken, and Appalachia, examining general economic and industry trends.
In this quarter’s newsletter, we focus on the Appalachian. Notable topics include Russia-Ukraine War’s effect on the demand for LNG exports to Europe in the face of winter, tight valuations between major operators, flat production levels in the region despite a high commodity price environment, as well as increased M&A activity in 2022 highlighted by Sitio Royalties and Brigham Minerals merger — creating the largest public minerals owner.
