About
Coterra Energy Inc. is a Houston, Texas-based oil and natural gas exploration and production company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: CTRA) as an S&P 500 Energy component — operating a diversified portfolio of oil and natural gas assets in three productive basins: the Permian Basin (Delaware Basin, West Texas and New Mexico, oil and gas), Anadarko Basin (Mid-Continent Oklahoma, natural gas and oil), and Appalachian Basin (Marcellus Shale, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, dry and wet natural gas), through approximately 1,500 employees. In fiscal year 2024, Coterra reported total revenue of $5.458 billion with Q4 production exceeding guidance by 3%+ across all metrics. The company announced a 5% dividend increase to $0.22 per share quarterly (annualized $0.88, approximately 3.1% yield) and provided 2025 guidance projecting 9% production volume growth with capital expenditures of $2.1-2.4 billion. CEO Tom Jorden leads Coterra, which was formed in October 2021 from the all-stock merger of Cabot Oil & Gas (Appalachian natural gas focused) and Cimarex Energy (Permian and Anadarko focused), creating a uniquely diversified E&P company with material positions in both dry gas (Appalachia) and oil/gas liquids (Permian, Anadarko). The three-basin diversification provides commodity diversification that pure Permian oil producers lack — Coterra benefits from natural gas price strength (LNG exports, data center power demand) through its Marcellus Shale gas production while also participating in Permian oil production growth.
Findlay OH petroleum refining (NYSE: MPC); largest US refiner 3M barrels/day, CEO Maryann Mannen elected Chairman (Jan 2026), MPLX midstream MLP, Martinez renewable diesel conversion competing with Valero and Phillips 66.
