- Net production averaged a company record 64.3 MBoe per day (76% oil), an increase of 64% year over year.
- Production growth driven by 40 new company operated horizontal wells to sales during the quarter, which compares to 38 new horizontal wells for all of 2017.
- Lease operating expense (“LOE”) per BOE in 2Q 2018 decreased to $10.84, a 19% year over year improvement.
- Contracted for 30,000 barrels of firm volume on the Gray Oak pipeline from Permian to Corpus Christi, expected to be available in 4Q 2019

Operations Update
Endeavor placed on production 41 gross company operated wells (of which 40 were horizontal wells). Included in this total are 22 two-mile Company operated drill fund wells on 4 different pads in Martin and Midland counties with these wells averaging 30 day peak IP rates of over 900 Boepd (87% oil). Overall 30 day IP rates for the 2Q period of 40 wells was 924 Boepd. The table below outlines a diverse group of these wells from Midland, Martin, and Reagan counties comprising the Middle Spraberry, Lower Spraberry, Wolfcamp A, Wolfcamp B and Wolfcamp C intervals.
Efficiency in execution continued to improve across drilling and completions activities. In the 2Q period, average ft/day drilled improved 30% from the same period in 2017 and improved 10% from Q1 2018 sequentially. A total of 32 wells were drilled and rig released during the quarter and a new company record well was drilled to 17,000 ft measured depth in 13.1 days.
Similarly, completion execution efficiency continues to improve with Q2 2018 stages pumped per day improving 20% from the 1Q 2018. This trend is enabled by our transition to pad development where our stimulation operations will have the opportunity to execute multi-well pads. In addition, we are in transition to primarily all regional sand sourcing by the end of 2018.
