Denbury Resources Inc. (NYSE: DNR) operates as an independent oil and natural gas company in the United States. It holds interests in various oil and natural gas properties located in Mississippi, Texas, Louisiana, and Alabama in the Gulf Coast region; and in Montana, North Dakota, and Wyoming in the Rocky Mountain region.
In mid-April, DNR shares were trading at $2.84 per share and have been steadily climbing since, rising to today’s level of $6.64. Profitable operations and rising oil prices could be catalysts driving the company shares.
Denbury’s production averaged 61,994 BOE/d during second quarter 2018, up 4% from second quarter 2017 due principally to higher production from the redevelopment project at Hastings Field in mid-2017, production response from continued expansion at Bell Creek Field, and a full quarter of production from the mid-2017 acquisition at Salt Creek Field. Sequentially, production increased 3% from first quarter 2018, due primarily to production increases at Cedar Creek Anticline, which benefited from the strong performance of two new Mission Canyon wells completed during March and April of 2018, and also due in part to higher production in the Gulf Coast region due to non-recurring weather downtime which lowered first quarter 2018’s production.
