Private Operators Edge Forward in Share of Active Rigs +1-212-713 4359

The share of active rigs operated by UBS-covered public companies has fallen from 48%

to 43% since February. Non-covered operator rig counts are up 18% YTD compared to a

1.5% increase for covered public operators. On a 4-week average basis, public

operators have added 4 rigs YTD, versus a 54 rig increase for non-covered operators. At

the play level, the strongest torque in oil activity has been in the Permian (+26 rigs) and

Eagle Ford (+9 rigs). The Haynesville has led on the gas side with a 13 rig jump YTD.

Within UBS's coverage universe, 56% of companies have maintained flat rig counts

YTD, with only FANG, DVN, and EOG posting rig count increases across the E&Ps. The

muted response from public E&Ps suggests a business-as-usual approach amid the

volatile commodity backdrop.
