Gulfport Energy

Our Company is a value-driven, growth oriented oil and gas exploration and production company. Operating areas include targeted exploration and exploitation in areas with known major oil resources such as Southern Louisiana and the Permian Basin. Exploration opportunities are pursued in areas where capital investment can generate tremendous upside as shown by exploration and exploitation activities in the Canadian oil sands and natural gas exploration in northern Thailand. In addition, Gulfport has also acquired acreage positions in the Niobrara Formation of Western Colorado and the Utica Shale of Eastern Ohio. 

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.

We seek to leverage recent technological advancements in the oil and gas industry to fully exploit our principal 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.

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 2007 acquisition of producing acreage in the Permian Basin and its' continued investment in the Canadian Oil Sands. With substantial unconventional resources at modest geologic risk, these plays, along with our overseas investment in Thailand, provide the company with a long-term optionality for potential production and resources.

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