Diamondback raised its 2026 production outlook by about 3–4% and sees a path to low-single-digit organic growth in 2027 while keeping flexibility amid oil-price volatility. Operational improvements in drilling and completions have boosted well productivity and completion efficiency, though higher consumable costs—particularly casing—could add just over 1% to well costs. Management said a quarterly capital run rate around $1 billion could sustain current production, reduced net debt by $1.6 billion in Q2 and is executing opportunistic buybacks while building cash for upcoming maturities. The company is also developing a behind‑the‑meter power project near Midland to support future LNG, power-generation and data‑center demand, and is expanding its Barnett position and testing EOR techniques. » Mere på finance.yahoo.com
