About Chord Energy
Who We Are
Based in Houston with core operations in North Dakota and Montana, Chord Energy is an independent, publicly traded oil and gas producer (NASDAQ: CHRD). Formed in 2022 from the combination of Oasis Petroleum and Whiting Petroleum, we unlock the energy potential of the Bakken and Three Forks formations to deliver reliable, affordable energy to a growing world.
As a mid-cap producer with public company resources, we combine operational agility with financial strength, enabling us to invest in both our people and our assets while maintaining the disciplined approach that drives long-term value.

This diversity of experience fuels our ability to optimize every aspect of our operations while maintaining the collaborative spirit that defines our culture.
