Whiting Petroleum: Positive Cash Flow Projections For 2022 Increases To Near $700 Million
Whiting may be able to generate close to $700 million in positive cash flow in 2022 at $85 WTI oil. It is focusing on generating cash flow and appears to be aiming for minimal organic production growth (potentially declining slightly) in 2022. DAPL situation remains a risk, although Whiting should still be able to generate a high amount of positive cash flow at current strip even if there is a shutdown.Whiting Petroleum: Potential For Over $500 Million In Positive Cash Flow During 2022
Whiting should be able to generate over $500 million in positive cash flow in 2022 at $70 WTI oil. It indicated that it expects to end 2021 with zero net debt, giving it plenty of funds for dividends, share repurchases, and acquisitions in 2022. Whiting may be worth around $72 by the end of 2022 in a long-term $65 WTI oil (and $70 oil in 2022) scenario.Whiting Petroleum: Looks Fairly Valued For Long-Term $65 WTI Oil
Whiting appears capable of generating over $200 million in positive cash flow during the second half of 2021, giving it a slight net cash position by the end of 2021. Without hedges, it may have been able to generate over $400 million in positive cash flow during this period. Hedges will likely have somewhat less negative impact in 2022. DAPL EIS not expected until September 2022 now, stabilizing the pipeline situation until then. Whiting's valuation appears fair for $65 WTI long-term oil, with a $5 change in oil prices affecting its value by around $7 per share.Whiting Petroleum: A Look At Its Williston Basin Acquisition And Redtail Divestiture
Whiting divested its Redtail assets for $187 million. Redtail development results had been disappointing, resulting in an $835 million impairment charge in 2017. Whiting acquired Williston Basin assets for $271 million. These assets give it slightly over one more year's worth of inventory next to its existing Sanish position. Near-term cash flow impact appears marginally negative. Whiting can make up for its additional debt and slightly reduced near-term cash flow through the development of its newly acquired inventory over time.Whiting Petroleum: Remaining Upside Depends On Distribution Of Reserved Shares And Status Of DAPL
Whiting should be able to eliminate its net debt by the end of 2021. It could also generate around $500 million in positive cash flow at $65 WTI oil without hedges. A dividend appears likely in the future. Whiting's upside depends on whether the DAPL remains in service and whether it distributes 2.1 million shares it has reserved for general unsecured claimants.Recent updates
