November 7, 2017 6:35 PM EST

HOUSTON, Nov. 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Oasis Petroleum Inc. (NYSE: OAS) ("Oasis" or the "Company") today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and provided an operational update.

Recent Highlights:

  • Completed and placed on production 24 gross (15.1 net) operated wells in the Williston Basin in the third quarter of 2017.
  • Produced 66.1 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day ("MBoepd") in the third quarter of 2017, representing an increase of 7% over the second quarter of 2017, primarily driven by completion activity. Production during the third quarter of 2017 increased 36% over the third quarter of 2016.
  • Produced over 69 MBoepd in October 2017 and expect to produce between 69 MBoepd and 72 MBoepd in the fourth quarter of 2017. Oasis continues to expect to hit an exit rate of 72 MBoepd, delivering 16% growth above the 2016 exit rate.
  • Oil differentials have improved to $1.82 off of NYMEX West Texas Intermediate crude oil index price ("WTI") in the third quarter of 2017, and Oasis expects differentials in the fourth quarter to range from $1.25 to $2.00 off of WTI.
  • Delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $179.6 million for the third quarter of 2017. For definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income and net cash provided by operating activities, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
  • Commenced operations of its second Oasis Well Services ("OWS") frac crew during the third quarter of 2017.
  • Oasis Midstream Partners LP ("OMP") sold 8,625,000 common units, representing limited partner interests in an initial public offering ("IPO" or the "Offering") for net proceeds of $137.2 million, of which $131.6 million was distributed to Oasis.
  • Announced investment in and assignment of second Wild Basin Gas Plant ("Gas Plant II") with a total capacity of 200 million standard cubic feet per day ("MMscfpd") to service gas production from its highly economic inventory.
  • Expects full year 2017 adjusted CapEx to total $620.0 million, in line with prior guidance. See "Capital Expenditures" below for adjustments.
  • Including net proceeds distributed to Oasis from the OMP IPO and adjustments for the Gas Plant II assignment, Oasis generated positive free cash flow of $39.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

"Oasis successfully delivered on production growth during the quarter in line with guidance, completed its IPO of OMP, and launched its second frac crew," said Thomas B. Nusz, Oasis' Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "The team delivered another great quarter and has positioned Oasis to exit the year with 72 MBoepd of production. Well performance across our core acreage position, including Wild Basin, Indian Hills, and Alger, continues to deliver impressive results, and our wells remain highly economic in the current commodity price environment. The team has also further reduced operating costs while driving improved differentials benefiting from our integrated midstream infrastructure."

Gas Plant II Update

Oil and gas production from Oasis' Wild Basin wells continues to exceed expectations, primarily due to higher frac intensity in the core areas of the Williston Basin.  The initial gas to oil ratio ("GOR") is generally higher in the core of the Williston Basin, including parts of McKenzie County, compared to the entire basin.  The combined effect of these factors has resulted in record gas production levels in the Williston Basin and particularly in McKenzie County where much of the drilling since 2015 has occurred, which now produces approximately half of the gas production in North Dakota. Due to the increased production of gas in the Williston Basin, there is a need for incremental processing capacity in the basin.  

Gas production in Wild Basin has already surpassed original design expectations for OMP's 80 MMscfpd gas plant, which is held by OMP's wholly-owned development company ("DevCo"), Bighorn DevCo LLC ("Bighorn DevCo"), and recently has averaged gross gas production in Wild Basin of approximately 100 MMscfpd. Oasis initially evaluated options to process the incremental gas that is being produced in and around Wild Basin and subsequently began the front end engineering and design process for a second gas plant and began ordering long lead time items. Oasis recently made the decision to proceed with the construction of Gas Plant II, and on November 6, 2017, Oasis agreed to assign the project to OMP. In exchange for the assignment of Gas Plant II into Bighorn DevCo, OMP agreed to reimburse Oasis for 100% of the capital spent-to-date and will fund 100% of the remaining project capital. OMP funded the reimbursement under its revolving credit facility and will have full rights to all cash flows generated from both gas plants held by Bighorn DevCo. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, Oasis invested $57.0 million in Gas Plant II, and on November 6,2017, assigned $66.7 million of asset value to OMP, which included capital spent in October 2017. OMP expects to invest approximately $140.0 million for the entire Gas Plant II project and anticipates operations will begin in late 2018.

CapEx reflected in the table above differs from the amounts shown in the statement of cash flows in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements because amounts reflected in the table above include changes in accrued liabilities from the previous reporting period for capital expenditures, while the amounts presented in the statement of cash flows are presented on a cash basis.

The Company's CapEx totaled $523.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, of which $57.0 million was reimbursed by OMP with the assignment of Gas Plant II. Additionally, the Company acquired a freshwater intake facility from the Missouri River and a freshwater distribution system that it is expanding to service a portion of the Company's completion activity in Wild Basin (the "Freshwater Project"). The Freshwater Project costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, including the acquisition, have totaled approximately $23.0 million. At the time of the OMP IPO, the Freshwater Project was included in Beartooth DevCo LLC, which is 60% owned by Oasis. Excluding the Gas Plant II and the Freshwater Project, CapEx would have totaled $443.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, which is in line with the Company's CapEx plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Excluding the Gas Plant II and the Freshwater Project for the full year 2017 CapEx, Oasis continues to expect adjusted CapEx to be approximately $620.0 million, which includes $15.0 million for activating the second frac spread for OWS.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Cash Interest is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of the Company's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Cash Interest as interest expense plus capitalized interest less amortization and write-offs of deferred financing costs and debt discounts included in interest expense. Cash Interest is not a measure of interest expense as determined by United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of interest expense to the non-GAAP financial measure of Cash Interest for the periods presented:

Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, exploration expenses and other similar non-cash charges. The Company defines Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less Cash Interest and CapEx, excluding capitalized interest. Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are not measures of net income (loss) or cash flows as determined by GAAP.

The following table presents reconciliations of the GAAP financial measures of net income (loss) including non-controlling interests and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities to the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow for the periods presented:

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Oasis and Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) Attributable to Oasis Per Share are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Oasis as net income (loss) after adjusting first for (1) the impact of certain non-cash items, including non-cash changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, impairment, and other similar non-cash charges, or non-recurring items, (2) the impact of net income attributable to non-controlling interests and (3) the non-cash and non-recurring items' impact on taxes based on the Company's effective tax rate applicable to those adjusting items in the same period. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Oasis is not a measure of net income (loss) as determined by GAAP. The Company defines Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) Attributable to Oasis Per Share as Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Oasis divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

The following table presents reconciliations of the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) attributable to Oasis to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Oasis and the GAAP financial measure of diluted earnings (loss) attributable to Oasis per share to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) Attributable to Oasis Per Share for the periods presented:
