Range Resources (RRC)

At our Dallas luncheon on December 14th, Range Resources (RRC) made the point that they spaced out their Marcellus Shale drilling program to hold the most leasehold. Now Range has over 200 well pads that are already built out that the company plans to drill new wells from. The company's transition to development mode from existing pads will lower their completed well costs by 15-20%. Combine this with increasing natural gas and NGL prices and Range's well-level economics should be significantly better when they sit down to prepare their year-end reserve report.
Improved well-level economics extend the economic lives of the leases and increase P1 reserves.
