Gulfport Energy’s strategy is to leverage recent technological advancements in the oil and gas industry to fully exploit core producing arceages in Southern Louisiana and the Permian Basin while balancing the portfolio with a collection of long-term value opportunities that provide high-impact upside potential, but with minimal initial investment.

Gulfport Energy is a value-driven, growth oriented oil and gas exploration and production company.  Operating areas include targeted exploration and exploitation in mature fields in Southern Louisiana, the Permian Basin and the Bakken/Williston Basin, exploration and exploitation activities in the Alberta oil sands in Canada, natural gas exploration in northern Thailand, and oil and gas exploration activities in Belize.

Gulfport Energy’s core management and technical teams are comprised of proven oil and gas professionals, with experience and expertise in multiple regions including salt dome structures of the U.S. Gulf Coast and the Permian Basin in West Texas.  An entrepreneurial spirit resonates from the executive management team throughout the organization.

The company’s management remains very bullish on the long-term global need and demand for oil and natural gas production and reserves growth.  Prime examples are the company’s recent acquisition of producing acreage in the Permian Basin and its' continued investment and drilling activity in the Bakken/Williston Basin and Alberta oil sands. With substantial unconventional resources at modest geologic risk, these plays, along with our overseas investments, provide the company with a long-term optionality for potential production and resources if crude commodity prices remain robust.

The company continues to be a value investor in terms of pursuing additional projects outside its core operating regions.

Gulfport Energy believes in an aggressive exploitation drilling program in its proven fields, living within its cash flow and maintaining financial discipline and flexibility.
