HOUSTON (Bloomberg) — The oil fields of West Texas don’t sit still for long.
Take Carrizo Oil & Gas Inc.’s operations, for instance. Just three months after moving drill rigs out of the Permian basin because of pipeline shortages, the Houston-based explorer is already talking about bringing them back in the middle of next year.
That’s one of several signs the end may be near for self-imposed slowdown executives call a “frac holiday.”
The result: Carrizo will reach an “inflection point” in 2019 where both production and cash flow begin to rise together, CEO Chip Johnson said on a conference call Tuesday. In other words, things will soon be booming again.
