据彭博社12月13日消息，据知情人士透露，Jagged Peak能源公司正在考虑扩大在德克萨斯州西部和新墨西哥州石油储量丰富的的二叠纪盆地的业务。
该人士表示，这家市值22亿美元的石油和天然气公司正在与一名顾问合作进行补强收购，由于没有被授权公开发言，他们不愿透露姓名。知情人士说，Jagged Peak有几个潜在的目标。
Jagged Peak的最大股东是私募股权公司Quantum Energy Partners，该公司于2013年投资4亿美元成立。根据彭博社收集数据，该公司目前持有Jagged Peak 69%的股份。
位于丹佛的Jagged Peak完全位于二叠纪，其面积位于该地区特拉华盆地的南部。
在蓬勃发展的二叠纪盆地，北美能源勘探企业和生产商正面临管道瓶颈，这压低了原油价格，促使一些企业进行整合。11月，Cimarex能源公司宣布了一项16亿美元的交易，其中包括债务收购同行Resolute能源公司，而Endeavour能源资源公司已收到包括雪佛龙公司和埃克森美孚公司在内的多家潜在竞购者的关注。
Jagged Peak正在寻找德克萨斯州佩科斯县Big Tex的合作伙伴。Jagged Peak首席执行官詹姆斯·克莱克纳上个月在一次电话会议上表示，该公司希望“在年底之前对这一安排有个明确的认识。”他说，如果该公司未能达成最终协议，Jagged Peak的资本预算将保持灵活。
根据彭博社汇编的数据，Jagged Peak于2017年1月上市，以每股15美元的价格筹集4.74亿美元，低于其6.5亿美元的目标。该股自今年1月份触及16.31美元的高位以来，股价下跌约38％。周三，Jagged Peak在纽约上涨1.4％至10.15美元。

Jagged Peak Energy to Consider Expanding With Permian Acquisitions
Jagged Peak Energy Inc. is considering expanding its footprint in the oil-rich Permian Basin of West Texas and New Mexico, according to people with knowledge of the matter.
The oil and gas company, with a market value of $2.2 billion, is working with an adviser to pursue bolt-on acquisitions, said the people, who asked not to be identified because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly. Jagged Peak has several potential targets in mind, the people said.
Jagged Peak’s largest shareholder is the private equity firm Quantum Energy Partners, which started the company in 2013 with a $400 million investment. It now owns 69 percent of Jagged Peak’s shares, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Denver-based Jagged Peak operates entirely in the Permian, with its acreage located in the southern portion of the region’s Delaware Basin.
North American energy explorers and producers in the booming Permian are facing pipeline bottlenecks that have pushed crude prices lower, spurring some to consolidate. In November, Cimarex Energy Co. announced a $1.6 billion deal including debt to buy peer Resolute Energy Corp., while Endeavor Energy Resources LP has received interest from multiple potential bidders including Chevron Corp. and Exxon Mobil Corp.
Jagged Peak is seeking partners for its Big Tex acreage in Pecos County, Texas. Jagged Peak Chief Executive Officer James Kleckner said Jagged Peak went public in January 2017, raising $474 million at $15 a share, falling short of its $650 million target, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Shares are down about 38 percent since a high this year of $16.31 in January. Jagged Peak rose 1.4 percent to $10.15 in New York
