EOG RESOURCES INC · 2026-08-04 · Importance 25 · Surprise 6
EOG’s self-sourced sand program provides supply certainty and improves operational efficiency in well completion operations. The company also enters into agreements with service providers when advantageous to secure the cost and availability of drilling and completion services. EOG pays third parties to process the majority of its natural gas production to extract NGLs, creating ongoing reliance on external processing capacity. Higher production in the Utica and Permian Basin increased gathering, processing and transportation costs, while Eagle Ford costs declined.
