Chord maintained its full-year 2026 oil-production outlook of 161,000 barrels per day, which is 2,000 barrels per day above its original outlook. The company’s overall capital outlook was “essentially unchanged,” though spending is expected to decline materially in the third quarter after Chord dropped its second frac crew in July. Brown said Chord needs more production history before incorporating a larger contribution from the chemical program into its outlook. The company has approximately 38% of its second-half 2026 oil volumes hedged and about 18% of 2027 oil volumes hedged.
