Listen "I Guess (They’d) Rather Be in Colorado - Upstream and Midstream Consolidation in the DJ Basin"
Episode Synopsis
Thanks largely to the Denver-Julesburg (DJ) Basin, Colorado ranks fourth among the 50 states in crude oil production, topped only by Texas, New Mexico and North Dakota — and, if it were a state, the offshore Gulf of Mexico (GOM). It’s also noteworthy that more than 80% of Colorado’s oil production comes from one county — Weld, the heart of the DJ and an hour’s drive northeast of Denver — and that a lot of consolidation has been happening in the DJ’s upstream and midstream sectors. In today’s RBN blog, we’ll look at the DJ Basin and the increasing concentration among the producers and midstreamers active there.
