The company focuses on upstream operations, utilizing horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing techniques to unlock hydrocarbons from key reservoirs. Its asset base includes both operated and non‐operated positions, with a particular emphasis on the Permian Basin, one of the most prolific oil-producing regions in North America. Matador’s core operations are concentrated in the Delaware Basin segment of the Permian Basin, where it holds substantial acreage in both Reeves and Culberson counties in West Texas and Eddy and Lea counties in New Mexico. In addition to its exploration and production activities, Matador has developed midstream capabilities through La Plata Midstream, a subsidiary providing gathering, processing and transportation services. This integrated model helps the company optimize netback and cost efficiencies across its value chain. Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Matador Resources has grown from a privately held oil and gas venture into a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: MTDR). Over the years, the company has financed its expansion through a combination of equity and debt offerings and has selectively acquired complementary assets to bolster production and reserve life. Matador is guided by a management team with extensive industry experience and remains committed to disciplined capital allocation, operational excellence and environmental stewardship.AI Generated.
