Landbridge completes acquisition of 46,000 acres in Delaware basin

LandBridge has closed its previously announced acquisition of approximately 46,000 largely contiguous surface acres, known as the Wolf Bone Ranch, in the Delaware Basin from a subsidiary of VTX Energy Partners, LLC, a Vitol investment.

The Wolf Bone Ranch acquisition strategically expands LandBridge’s position in Reeves and Pecos Counties, Texas, an important region for both oil and natural gas production, and provides access to the Waha Gas market hub. The land generates significant cash flows from existing third-party operations and is strategically located to capture potential future growth opportunities from renewable energy projects, commercial real estate and digital infrastructure development.

As part of the acquisition, LandBridge secured a minimum annual revenue commitment of $25 million for each of the next five years from VTX Energy and its affiliates that includes surface operations, brackish water used for completions and produced water handling royalties. LandBridge funded the purchase price of the acquisition with $200 million of proceeds from Private Placement and $45 million of borrowings under its debt facilities.
