Viper Energy Expects Continued Production Growth After Sitio Acquisition
Viper completed its Sitio acquisition and expects mid-single-digit production growth in 2026 from current levels. This could put Viper's 2026 production around 132,000 BOEPD, including 68,000 barrels per day of oil production. At current 2026 strip prices, Viper should be able to generate close to $4 per share in distributable cash flow.
